A God Builds a Castle With Barnes and a Vassell While An Alien Looks For His Ship - The Official 2024-2025 San Antonio Spurs Season Thread

So you’re telling me there is a plan for this summer free agency to be aggressive cool with me

Or straight up trade. In any event, that's what I'm telling myself to help me sleep tonight.

 

[Dwight Howard]

Says alot about this draft. Its unprecedented for a top 10 pick to be traded for instant salary relief. Obviously they are getting a first rounder too but its too far away to considerate it a relevant asset

 

[VBM]

Topic to OKC. Giddy replacement.

Idk. Maybe I’m supposed to stay patient.

But gotdamn. Draftin Dilly after he’d been cheesin’ for the last few months about the prospect of playing for SA, only to immediately flip him to MN while his parents were literally puttin on their SA fitteds just…don’t sit right with my soul.

Tbh. I dont like stock piling draft picks etc. woulda kept Dilly

[Don Homer]

That Minny pick won’t convey until Wemby is 28 years old

So this is confusing.

On the one hand, it makes sense to me because I have been saying that I don't think the Spurs would take Dillingham because he's a defensive liability. So trading him for an unprotected 1st rounder is a great return in my opinion.

But...
The Spurs need shooters. And Castle is not yet a good shooter. So they must have serious doubts about how Knecht, Buzelis and Carter could be at the NBA level.

Pretty shocking stuff here.

It's not confusing...

Brian Wright is an idiot and one of the worst GM's in the league if not the worst.

Every move he has made other than drafting Wemby has been trash.

You know how shyt of a GM Brian Wright is?

Over the next 5 years the Hawks owe us picks or a pick swap in the first round 4 times.

Guess the one time they don't owe us picks or a Swap? 2024.

That how trash Brian Wright is. The exact one time out of 5 years a team doesn't owe the Spurs a 1st round pick...they get the number 1 pick. Wouldn't have happened to anyone else.

 

[duckbutta]

7 million dollars to do what with? Give it to Cedi Osman ?

 

[BodieBroadus]

also can’t help but feel like SA just created their own Moss-against-DAL type monster with how they (quickly) swapped Dilly.

Time will tell and so on.
