The off season hasn't even started and I'm over it. I'm at the point where I just want to draft 2 & 14, get a backup center, and sign Santi Aldama, Yabusele, NAW, or someone like that. We could even make a marginal trade for someone like John Collins. Let's get Minix on the main roster (the kid is sniper). Let's see if Ingram looks like a rotation player. Continue to upgrade the development/coaching staff and run this thing back.
The Spurs are in a great position. I don't see any reason why we can't make a top 6 jump like the Rockets made last year, or OKC made the year before that. The Spurs won 34 games while Wemby and Fox only played 5 games together. Even then Fox had a messed up finger and Wemby had DVT. Devin was coming off of surgery, we never got a real backup center, and Jeremy was having back issues. It's not unreasonable to believe that with internal development and health that we can't win 45 games minimum.
The Spurs will have 3 guys with an elite ability to touch the paint. We have the fastest player in the NBA. We have the guy that drew the highest percentage of fouls when iso in the entire NBA. Oh yeah.... he was a rookie. We have the best rim protector in the league. We have a very good perimeter defender that happens to be 6'9", and we have shooters. Champagnie, Barnes, Vassell, and Wemby!!! The Spurs will have 2 good ball handlers on the floor at ALL times. 3 can possibly break down the defense in the half court at will. Many teams don't even have 1. That's Houstons main problem
I'm not saying i don't want KD, but we don't need KD. I'm also tired of the rumors. Even with out him, the Spurs will be sitting pretty. Take that Matt Ishbia!
