1. Are the Spurs actually going to sign Juan Nunez or will he still be a draft and stash.

2. Juan nunez! He looks like a good pick and I didn’t want this 8th pick so glad with the organization this draft !!👍🏼

3. We know this fake media won’t ask the hard questions!!

4. Let’s start winning already. Wemby not going to wait forever

5. Again, Brian Wright with his slate of non-answers. Somebody ask him about Primo again to get a genuine reaction out of him.

6. Harrison Ingram was a great pick, elite role player with shooting, size and length

7. So we just drafted a guy to stay in Europe and not pay him $ ……Why not get Furphy was just plain stupid and just shows they just being Cheap.

8. Now that the draft is over. Our coach is not getting any younger. Is there any interest in hiring UConn Coach Dan Hurley as an assistant in 2025. To learn from Coach Popovich and get acquainted with the team. To eventually take over Popovich when he retires?

9. Draft a pg of future like nunez 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️then he never gonna play for spurs or be another ginobili get him when he 26 years lol 🤦‍♂️🤷‍♂️worked once dont mean its gonna work again

10. Wonder if d 2nd rounders will stay or be traded/ stash BRIAN!?

11. WE BETTER KEEP JUAN

12. He fucking blew this so hard. Furphy should’ve been gone in the first round and fell into our fucking lap and we traded him away for a draft n stash. At worst he’s Grayson Allen, at best he’s a tougher, more athletic gordon hayward who competes on defense. At 35 that’s a fucking steal. But to give him up for cash and the next pick when he would’ve fit seamlessly is a huge mistake. We have Victor Fucking Wembanyama who is ready to WIN NOW. Why would you trade someone that can make an immediate impact, fills multiple needs, is a good character guy, etc and draft a point guard when we could’ve signed or traded for one who’s contract expires before wembys massive one kicks in. I’m not that upset at the trade for Rob cuz those firsts could be super valuable and a guy like Ant playing his whole career in Minnesota seems unlikely considering the money situation they’re in and it’s just a shitty state. But Furphy falling to us and giving him away for nothing is outrageous. I’ve been patient with this team cuz of what they’ve done but when you have Pop talking about the team needs to be tougher, more mature and smarter. Ding ding fucking ding: Johnny Furphy. There better be some moves coming along cuz we’re realistically only a few quality players away from the playoffs and I think Furphy would’ve been a huge part of not only the future but would’ve made an impact now. But instead we buys like Wesley, Champagne, Branham, etc on this roster. You don’t think we could’ve given Indy our other second, a couple of our 12 in the next 7 years, branham, wesley and cash and taken nunez with that pick. He dropped the fucking ball.

    S: Jones, Vassell, SF (Vassell could play the 3 if we traded for like a brogdon or someone), Sochan, Wemby
    B: Castle, Furphy, KJ, Collins

    When wemby played with an actual point guard our team was a net positive. The two guys we drafted would’ve come off the bench this year and learned a bit then next year jump into the starting group. If we’re tanking again for a top pick next year I’m not for that at all, passing up on good talent to tank is a recipe for disaster.

13. When is the spurs letting riquan,buyea,sisoko play? They're not 11 year old anymore brian!!

14. I want RC to be the gm again….
