To get a player/FORWARD of conseguence…Devin is most likely a player that most teams would want in a blockbuster package deal! Spurs are fine in the backcourt…Devin is really more like a 2….we need a FORWARD of consequence to become DANGEROUS this year…FOX/CASTLE/HARPER takes care of the backcout….WEMBY…at the 5 ..just need that 1 big time Forward…Go get em SPURS!

@marksprings2271 Out of all the Spurs lineups that had more than 100 minutes together last seasns the best lineup was CP3 – PG, Vassell – SG, Barnes – SF, Wemby – C, and Sochan with +16.3 netrtg. That's better than OKC's starting lineup. Replace CP3 with Fox and they should be even better. Replace CP3 with Fox and get age typical improvement from Vassell, Wemby, Fox, and Sochan and that lineup's going to be tough to beat. We have to see what Harper and Bryant can do before giving them close to start minutes and to a lesser extent Castle. Castle absolutely must improve off-ball play and shooting outside the RA(he horrible).
Castle is the X Factor!!! Conversation over….
Depends on what you mean by X-Factor. That would be more of Harper, Castle, Sochan. But if hes the one guy to step up. Then yes.
Vassell was just good at open shots last year, hopefully that's all he does this year
Rudy Dominguez, the Voice of Reason. Always on point.
