Pushing Big Body So Let's Roll Out The Tank: The Official 22-23 San Antonio Spurs Season Thread

[Remote]

The perception of Dejounte is changing a lot since he left.

Most people who leave the Spurs either praise the organization (Danny Green) or move on and mostly remain quiet (Kawhi Leonard).

Dejounte really focusing on going after people on social media than worry about his team being down 2-0

Good write up.
I had this feeling when reading it that Amen Thompson could wind up like another Ben Simmons though. Like, if he doesn’t develop an NBA-caliber shot, what good are you? Unless you’re an absolute dog passing the ball and playing defense.

Sounds like what Ben Simmons is now. A lot of physical gifts. But no heart, no shot, and with his injuries…effectively useless.

I hope that doesn’t happen to Amen, no matter where he winds up.

We'll see. I mean we drafted Sochan and let Chip walk within weeks of each other, and so far so good. I trust the organization to help him build a passable jumper.

It also remains to be seen what the narrative is around Miller come draft time.

Brandon Miller is tricky.

The Spurs won’t take him. I think they doubt his character and don’t want the risk.

But Miller is a top tier talent. This could be a situation like Randy Moss or Warren Sapp — where everyone knows they’re amazing but they slip in the draft over rumors or BS. Then 10 years later they’re all-pros and the teams that passed all feel stupid.

Or maybe Miller does something stupid off the court…he’s in the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong people and he squanders his gifts.

Who knows?

I think the Spurs take a safer player though.

Praying we get Wemby. But if we in the top 3 then it won't be so bad

But if we get Victor we back in the playoffs immediately

A top 2 pick would be ideal. Wemby, Scoot or Amen in that order. I'm about to start fasting and praying in hopes the Lord gives us the #1 pick.

I'm def drinking that night. I remember how nerve-racking the Duncan lotto was. I was sitting there trying to talk myself into believing Keith Van Horn would lead us to the promised land

I'ma cry if we don't get a top 2 pick

If they get 4th, I don't think they let Miller fall past them...gun incident be damned.
