I've been saying this since last year when the 'RUMORS' started to circulate About GIANNIS THAT IF HE WANTED TO BE A SPUR ALL HE WOULD HAVE TO DO IS SAY IT, NOW HAVING SAID THAT WOULD THE SPURS FRONT OFFICE MAKE THE DEAL CONSIDERING Milwaukee will want to gut the Spurs entire roster(Damn Near) to execute the trade, I don't see it happening the piece we need would be Trey Murphy and even the pelicans will want a player maybe 2 and draft capital which I JUST DON'T SEE THE SPURS DOING THAT DEAL, BUT MY POINT IS I WOULD TAKE TREY MURPHY BEFORE GIANNIS ONLY BECAUSE HE WOULD ADD TO THE YOUTH MOVEMENT the spurs have already plus the team would make some noise in the playoffs and with Giannis INJURIES AND HOW LONG WILL HE PLAY DEPENDING ON HIS AGE IS A FACTOR, THE BETTER FIT FOR HIM MAYBE WITH THE KNICKS OR Los ANGELES, BIG MARKET TEAMS. Carter Bryant need s to shoot more within the flow of the offense but a he was an absolute steal at the 14th pick but there were several other players at that spot as well.
Carter is young but if you look at his shot motion , and how it comes off his hands looks nice
When this team learns how to hold onto big leads and have better 3rd quarters he will get more NBA playing time to develop
Does the spurs need more offense ?
Maybe we can try him out there instead of keldon or vassell
