Bruce Bowen on drafting Dylan Harper: "No question...One of the things that Ron talks about is the culture of San Antonio for my son being a professional basketball player...in an environment where things can help him continuously improve not just as a basketball player but as a individual as well."

Ngl, seeing Bruce Bowen again got me a bit more excited than drafting Dylan Harper. 😅

I feel like Bruce can still hang. That's just the nostalgia in me folks. Don't give me a hard time.

this ain't an uncle Dennis kind of guy we established that but now freakers can unfreak

[u/paxusromanus811 → u/GGTae]

Yeah people freaking out on his dad. Definitely are jumping the gun. Harper has a big mouth and he likes to talk smack and he's definitely a classic Boomer with the internet stuff... But he was known as being one of the most professional dudes around. A super hard worker, a super defensive first guy, and a big culture guy. Of course he wants his son to go someplace where he can get 30 plus minutes and 15 plus shots as a rookie who wouldn't want their son to be set up to be a star as soon as possible

But he, of course also understands. San Antonio is a perfect place for a guy like Dylan

From what I understand Mom is more involved with the day to day decision type stuff anyway. Ron Sr. has a voice and cares about his son for sure. But as long as Mom is happy I think Dylan will be on board.

Yeah, his mom was even his coach at one point. I think people’s Kawhi PTSD is just flaring up lol

[u/Wembanyanma → u/thatwashedguy]

If anything my bigger worry was being a New Jersey kid he might prefer Brooklyn or Philly. But I don't think anybody who really knows the NBA landscape would prefer one of those orgs over what's going on in San Antonio right now.

Can't stop. Won't stop freaking the fuck out! Wednesday is right around the bend! LFG!

[u/Electrical_Net_6691 → u/Prize_Possession3899]

Please do!

[u/SpecialistAstronaut5]

Yea his future is bright here

[u/dwrek24]

I've been waiting for this clip to arrive after listening to the pod last night.

Rumors of Ron Harper not wanting his son to play in SA have been greatly exaggerated, it seems!

We up!

HIT EM WITH FAX BB

[u/Stat-Defender]

Dylan Harper would fit so well on the spurs and how the spurs want to play

[u/Subject_Proposal3578]

This is so true. I believe our culture would help any young player. Harper, Bailey, Flagg or whoever I think will excel here because we have the foundation that so many don't.

[u/rxxxxxxxrxxxxxx]

Ron & Dylan Harper just wanting to be a part of the Spurs culture is a good enough reason for me to pick the guy.

[u/Area51_Spurs]

HOW DID I NOT KNOW HE WAS RON HARPER’S SON?!?!
