RUI HACHIMURA : just do not let the spurs get eem

[Art Barr]

hey Joe,...

not sure.
if any draft boards have him going fourth like he should. Yet real talk.
he could slip just because of the typical funk zaga has on draft scouts before kuz. Yet imo.
this could be that rampup player gold kawhi was if he slips.

be a shame if he slips. As i think he could ramp into the kawhi meets Giannis hybrid.

as he has an incredible chip on his shoulder. Yet he has the drive from what i seen given him ramping to be the next euro/foreign player to the next guy.
I get that kawhi meets Duncan vibe from.
he could bust given the continued language barrier. Plus possibly being a deer in headlights from overthinking.

past that. I think the sky is the limit for the kid.

nuffin but son'n you with just Iq. Textbook fundies and intelligence. I do not even think we seen him play at his full speed. nor be fully cognitive and fluid on domestic soil either.
yet win the dr j award for the best three.
kid has it.
I would risk it at four with no question.

He's a cat that I wish like hell we'd create a package to move up to get cause he's the skilled 3/4 guy that we REALLY need. I'd give up Damar and a first for a chance to get him


I'll probably regret this post in a few years and look silly if this dude turns out to be a bust

I disagree. He’s Mike Scott without the tattoos and edge.

No rebounding or defensive awareness to stay on the court. His offensive skill is great for a bench role.

he could bust, given culture shock.
yet he already is part black from China and dealt. Then he dealt being part black at zaga getting called stoopid for just the language barrier. So if he can make it through that.
hopefully he can be the same surprise pick others said kuz was. When i said kuz was nice and panned out.

plus now Giannis has ramped. Embiid and simmins have survived injury. I believe guys like him and Bruno from the raptors. Who are euros will not be busts. If given the proper arena and resources to ramp.
I think now the league will develop its assests more profoundly as well moving forward.

If Spurs get him or Admiral Schofield you can add another few years to Pop's career.

 

[killacal]

Just cuz he's reserved I guess he's like Kawhi

 

[NatiboyB]

Is it just me or do I low key be paying attention to whomever I hear the Spurs like? Have me thinking I better take them before the Spurs. But I have noticed the Spurs typically hit on role players but only one of them elevated to superstar status but at the same time they always draft late so that is actually a great value...I can't do nothing but salute the Spurs staff even with the Kawhai Loss they took their track record still stands out as a franchise that is very well ran.

The spurs are the celts of the aba breh.
They and the celts are still the villains in this black led and directed movie.

Offensively he's got potential but defensively he'll get torched in the league.

 

[lightskin jermaine]

I'm not really high on him but the Spurs are the best when it comes to developing young talent.

 

[NoMorePie]

Yall better pray the spurs dont move up and draft sekou

 

[FLORIDA BOI]

he nice been watching him all seAson

 

[Trot LaRoc]

He's not that skilled...he was just bigger n more athletic than his competittion. Doesnt have much of a shot nor handles. He like a Bobby Portis/Mareese Speights/Brandon Bass offensive only bench big....Rui's defense is pretty

Any comparison to Kawhi or Giannis is laughable.

If he becomes Thad Young, yall should be happy
