What a night last night Spurs fans! How do think we did? Thanks for watching and GO SPURS GO!
Assuming JQ can stay healthy Iโm very happy with the draft considering where we drafted. Iโm happy we traded up to grab Tarris Reed Jr.
Overall very happy with draft even with JQโs uncertainty. Really hope the Spurs Drโs are on point here.
We just need to upgrade champagnie… I like him when he's shooting but he just disappears in games, especially second halves of the finals
A+ Were putting a defensive clinic 2-3 yrs from now. Hoping we start reed sooner and waive Kornet while Jayden Heal's. Jayden is similar with Rob Williams III from the blazers so I'm happy with this and he can play pf. These 2 may solve our problem and maybe they can play/share on the same time as wemby is on the floor.
as long as Fox is still on this team we aint going anywhere!!
All that issue in one knee
Reed Jr should come off the bench for Wemby first before Kornet. He's younger, more athletic, and has a motor out of this world. You don't move up in the draft and concede two additional 2nd round picks for him to just sit on the bench. You keep Kornet because you still need an insurance policy just in case shit happens like Chris Rock once said.
Reed is huge he and Harper in the starting line up. Move Wemby to small forward like KD plays. Julian Champagnie comes off the bench and Fox gets bumped way down the bench. Wemby in the 5 spot creates foul trouble, issues with pick and roll opportunities and a lack of offensive rebounding. Move him to the 3 spot and you got a big that can spread the floor and drive to the basket with a legit big man in Reed that can actually set picks for him. Harper at Point, Castle in the shooting Guard spot, Wemby as power Forward, Devin Vassell as a Small forward, and Reed in the Center position.
B+ grade with the potential to be an A
No Keldon Johnson at power forward. ๐๐๐ฅณ๐ฅณ๐๐
I really like this!! They finally have size outside of Wemby
Reed got a post game
Simple answer to your question, Rich: Yes ๐
Bro reminds me of Ben Wallace. I hope he gets and stays healthy and Reed looks good to go. I still want a bigger combo forward that can shoot but we'll see how it goes
JQ is very young and already injury prone, could be a Greg Oden 2.0
OHHH YOU DIDNT KNOW… we need a big in paint like its said NY made Wemby look like Chet Now we have muscle ๐ช๐ฝ
I have a good feeling about these guys.
Reed is the better pick.
JQ is not gonna recover not in one season off .. all his test came back positive.. his knee is shot ..as for reed he doesnโt do anything great on the floor .. not a lob threat and I donโt think his rim protection translates in the nba .. in fact he will be foul baited a lot โฆ I think he can be more versatile then kornet tho at least offensively
Yo TSR, I blue A gasket, not knowing the background of our 20th pick. I still think we need to address a sharpshooter and maybe another tall forward thru trade or free agency. Spurs did great last night!!! Front office addressed what was definitely needed. Go Spurs Go!!!
Good moves. Wemby won't improve by adding 2 bodyguards on the court. If he keeps playing dirty, no one will be able to rescue him, not the refs, not beefy bodyguards. His skinny dirty a$$ is tra$h.
We now know where Miss TSR was last night. In the draft room telling the Spurs get Jayden Quaintance because of his incredible hair and she also ensured they traded to get UConn's Tarris Reed Jr!
B+ on draft
overall good drafting, i think it is great direction. but karmin lopez could be one we look back on. but still water under the bridge
last night when i heard that JQ has the history of injury and not knowing him in the first place i was going with others that we blow it or brian wrong striked again but after awhile watching few highlights of JQ i was impressed and there was this one play that totally got me when JQ fell down to the floor but still recovered fast to block a shot from someone driving to the basket was just amazing.. i feel like JQ situation is liked what joel embid went through before, after getting drafted he did not play right away coz of injuries for 2 season.. JQ might develop his shooting while on rehab like joel.. so its all good..
In 4 games with Kentucky JQ avg 5 pts 5 rebounds .. his only value is defense at this point โฆ so really with him being out we havenโt upgraded the team at all
I hope we can trade up for Veesaar at the top of the 2nd round. He needs to add muscle, but will be a legitimate stretch 4/5.
If bro gets entirely healthy, his upside is through the roof
I was a bit happy when we drafted JQ at 20 and hearing he had a bad injury and then I got overjoyed when we traded up for Reed at 26
Big Rich, sorry to learn of your back discomfort. Try some traction (unloading) exercises and for immediate pain relief those XL icy hot patches work well and no Shaq did not tell me to type that.
Its a good draft but JQ is rated c+ because of his injury & it will take a while before he can play in the regular season terris reed is rated b+ just need a stretch 4 shooting foward like Tyler nickel
Reed is the real steal excellent defender has great hands high I
Iq and plays physical rebounds and his finishing ability is underrated, the other kid is a freak athlete and we only hit him because his defense is undeniable heโs definitely not a scorer
2 Great Picks, needed bigs to help wemby ๐
I'm really excited for Reed. He brings us some quality post play right now which we desperately needed. Once Quaintance is fully healthy and in our rotation we will definitely be dangerous with many quality chess pieces across the board.
JQ will be the next Giannis !

We gotta the best with what we had… We fixed our needs even having 2 low picks in the 1st round. About the problem with JQ, he had a ACL problem, it not meniscus, ACL once with reattach it and reabilitate it becames stronger than the original, the surgeon technics nowadays is very effected, as a BJJ athlete, I personally know people that did the surgery and come back to compete in high level…
Other important thing about ACL enjuries is that it is not related with genetics or body type, it is exclusive bad luck to torn it… so the chance of him have his ACL torned again is the same of someone that never torn the ACL before… that been said, it is important to say that while in reabilitation he has to be very caution with the other ACL because the body tends to compensate… but after the reabilitation is over, he good to go!
6:15 – Twin Towers 2.0!
Thunder got aday FAH๐ซฉ
Absolutely nailed it two draft day steals!
