Speaker 1: This is a big one today. Yes, hopefully you enjoyed
Speaker 1: the Tim Duncan Extravaganza show last week. But now we're
Speaker 1: getting hot and heavy. We can feel it right, Spurs fans.
Speaker 1: I got in the hot seat today and I realized
Speaker 1: it's draft night tonight. Don't don't laugh at me, Okay.
Speaker 1: I have a family. I have kids that are in
Speaker 1: the Spurs camp. This week been focusing on that, and
Speaker 1: when I got ready to broadcast today, I didn't realize
Speaker 1: that tonight is the NBA drap. That's what happens when
Speaker 1: life gets in the way. But we're ready. Can you
Speaker 1: feel it coming in the air tonight, Spurs fans, NBA
Speaker 1: fans where a player can change a team like Steph
Speaker 1: Castle has Victor wimen Yama. Yeah you can, we can
Speaker 1: phill Oh lord, yeah, hold on either one of the
Speaker 1: me too. All my life hold on. Tonight is the
Speaker 1: NBA Draft and this is gonna make or break teams,
Speaker 1: and it's supposed to be a very deep draft where
Speaker 1: the first nine out of ten predicted players in the
Speaker 1: NBA Draft are freshmen this year what freshmen will make
Speaker 1: an impact? Cooper Flag is a alleged generational talent right now.
Speaker 1: He is the cut above the players right now, but
Speaker 1: he did not win the NCAA title. Also predicted in
Speaker 1: the top five are two Duke players and two Rutgers players.
Speaker 1: Where the San Antonio Spurs are right now really looking
Speaker 1: at Dylan Harper. In this episode, we'll talk about a
Speaker 1: little about draft night, what the Spurs will do according
Speaker 1: to some mock boards, and we can kind of giggle
Speaker 1: and mock these mock boards as well, because when these
Speaker 1: mock draft boards come up, I laugh. We were gonna
Speaker 1: use NBA draft dot Net, But if you go google
Speaker 1: that every Spurs pick, they have them picking a guard.
Speaker 1: How many more guards do we need? Do they think
Speaker 1: that getting four new guards will replace one? Chris Paul
Speaker 1: I'm just throwing that out there as a joke. But
Speaker 1: we have the Rookie of the Year last year with
Speaker 1: Steph Castle, who's putting in an amazing off season regiment.
Speaker 1: If you've been watching him on any social media, on
Speaker 1: maybe YouTube, on TikTok. He is putting in some work, y'all.
Speaker 1: He's putting on a lot more muscle. Something tells me
Speaker 1: he's gonna be almost like that SGA type player getting
Speaker 1: into the lane and getting those calls. And we know
Speaker 1: how SGA got those calls. I mean, but by the way,
Speaker 1: let's let's you know, let's be honest. All right, let's
Speaker 1: give it up to the Oklahoma City Thunder winning this
Speaker 1: year's title. That's enough up here in San Antonio. We understand.
Speaker 1: Why listen, we beat you two out of four and
Speaker 1: one without Wemby. All right, we're bitter you. Damn right,
Speaker 1: we're a little bitter. We're a little bitter here in
Speaker 1: San Antoonio. But the Oklahoma City Thunder did win this
Speaker 1: year's title, and we won't even talk about the finals.
Speaker 1: I just think a lot of it was I'm not
Speaker 1: gonna say the r word rigged. I'm not gonna say
Speaker 1: that because I don't believe in rigged. I really don't.
Speaker 1: These players still got to go out there and play,
Speaker 1: They got to go out there and perform. I just
Speaker 1: I don't believe in that. But At the same time,
Speaker 1: there were things that made you go hmm in that
Speaker 1: kind of NBA finals, Tyrese Halliburton going down with an
Speaker 1: achilles injury. By the way, he'll probably be out most
Speaker 1: of the season next year. The Eastern Conference landscape is changing, guys.
Speaker 1: The Celtics are trading away players left and right now.
Speaker 1: They're looking for off first for Jalen Brown and Derek White.
Speaker 1: By the way, Spurs, Spurs, if you can bring Derek
Speaker 1: White back here, let's do it. Let's freaking do it. Right.
Speaker 1: You want to get a guard that is established and
Speaker 1: knows the system, bring that man back home to San Antonio.
Speaker 1: Now that would be a pick. We'd be like, Yes,
Speaker 1: great trade, great trade. We'll also talk about in this
Speaker 1: episode just a little bit about the Kevin Durant trade,
Speaker 1: why the Spurs didn't go after him. What you guys
Speaker 1: are saying on x and social media about not landing him.
Speaker 1: It's mostly you young bucks that play NBA two K
Speaker 1: that really don't know much about basketball to begin with. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I called you out. Just because you have unlimited salary
Speaker 1: cap on a video game doesn't mean that you have
Speaker 1: unlimited salary cap in the real world. Okay, let's just
Speaker 1: throw that out there, all right. Just because your player
Speaker 1: is at a ninety nine doesn't mean you're the goat. Okay,
Speaker 1: there's a little thing called reality. We'll talk about that
Speaker 1: here on the show today. A lot of moving going
Speaker 1: on in the NBA. Though, you got Chris pos porzingis
Speaker 1: going to Atlanta. Will this benefit Atlanta? I think he's
Speaker 1: got a couple good years left. He's been injury prone
Speaker 1: in his career, but adding him with Trey Young is
Speaker 1: gonna be very interesting. Kp still can put up twenty
Speaker 1: and ten on any given night. He almost averaged twenty
Speaker 1: points a game last year in limited time ten boards,
Speaker 1: and I think that's gonna be great for Atlanta, especially
Speaker 1: in the landscape of the East where everything is kind
Speaker 1: of falling apart a little bit. This is why it
Speaker 1: was interesting that New York didn't go out and get
Speaker 1: another elite scorer, like maybe Kevin Durant. But we know
Speaker 1: why that happened. There's a little bit of salty taste
Speaker 1: in the owner's mouth in New York because when Kevin
Speaker 1: Durant and Kyrie went to Brooklyn, we're not even gonna
Speaker 1: go there. That is in the past that is drama.
Speaker 1: But that's probably the reason why KD didn't go to
Speaker 1: New York. I really believe that Katie wanted to finish
Speaker 1: his career in Texas where it started. The reason why
Speaker 1: he didn't come to San Antonio is coming up in
Speaker 1: a little bit. Pretty good teaser, right there, right, pretty
Speaker 1: good teaser. We'll talk about that here in a moment.
Speaker 1: But let's talk a little bit about what the San
Speaker 1: Antonio Spurs are doing here in the offseason. I know
Speaker 1: what you guys are saying, nothing, absolutely nothing as usual?
Speaker 1: Why should they? Can we talk for a minute, Spurs fans,
Speaker 1: brothers and sisters of the black and silver community. We
Speaker 1: are family, right, we are family. Let's talk about this.
Speaker 1: Iron sharpens iron, according to the Bible. Let's do that.
Speaker 1: The Spurs are in good shape. We have been stressing
Speaker 1: this for two years, and over the last several months
Speaker 1: we have been bringing up and beating the same dead
Speaker 1: horse by telling y'all this team has not been healthy together.
Speaker 1: Two years ago, most of the stars got hurt. Devin
Speaker 1: kJ Sohan at the time, Trey Jones all sat the
Speaker 1: bench for the final eleven games. Wemby and Mamu took
Speaker 1: over they went seven and four in those final eleven.
Speaker 1: This year, forty games, we lose Victor wembin Yama. We
Speaker 1: catch something that probably could have been worse in his
Speaker 1: system if he continued to play. Let's please give it up.
Speaker 1: Four hour San Antonio spurs medical staff in a round
Speaker 1: of applause for the medical community here in San Antonio
Speaker 1: really taking care of Wemby and really getting that situation
Speaker 1: under control. Deer and Fox showed you a little bit
Speaker 1: of what he do one handed, and it's not a joke.
Speaker 1: One handed. We forget how fast, how good d'erin Fox
Speaker 1: really is because he got injured. We're all like, oh,
Speaker 1: oh god, Jiaron Fox has now gone in Wemby, So
Speaker 1: what are we gonna do? Well? We still won thirty
Speaker 1: plus games more than the year before. You ever heard
Speaker 1: of a procression chart. While you're looking at it, we
Speaker 1: told you two years ago too. Trust the process. A
Speaker 1: lot of y'all were down on Wemby the first ten
Speaker 1: games of his career. Oh, he shouldn't be doing this,
Speaker 1: and he shouldn't be shooting those threes. He shouldn't be
Speaker 1: one League three points shooting. That's his game. Did you
Speaker 1: ever watch him do you ever watch him overseas? That's
Speaker 1: his game. If you watch Nikola Jokic the MVP many
Speaker 1: times here in the NBA in his early career, he
Speaker 1: played the same way, and you wouldn't have thought he
Speaker 1: would be able to play that way in the NBA.
Speaker 1: Why would you not think that Wemby can't do the
Speaker 1: same now in his career. Patience, patience, perseverance will win
Speaker 1: the race. Youth will win the race. Look at Oklahoma
Speaker 1: City and guess what. Oklahoma City and San Antonio are
Speaker 1: sitting very pretty for their future, not getting rid of
Speaker 1: a lot of these picks. Will it happen tonight on
Speaker 1: draft night? Will we draft for some other teams? I
Speaker 1: think the Spurs fourteenth pick, and I believe can we
Speaker 1: take a look at the chart right now where San
Speaker 1: Antonio is sitting with their other pick thirty eight, That's
Speaker 1: what I thought, the thirty eighth pick. Could we package
Speaker 1: the fourteen and thirty eight together, maybe with another player,
Speaker 1: and go after somebody that wants to come to San Antonio.
Speaker 1: The latest rumor right now is Bam Bio out of Miami.
Speaker 1: You heard me say it. Bam A Bio is interested
Speaker 1: in coming to San Antonio. Can you imagine that him
Speaker 1: and Wemby the Spurs like those types of players. I
Speaker 1: don't know why you fans think we go after these
Speaker 1: big name stars like Giannie and KD who are going
Speaker 1: to eat our financial boat eventually, and then in ten
Speaker 1: years we'll be back in this situation rebuilding, and you'll
Speaker 1: be complaining again to your kids and saying, well, I
Speaker 1: remember back in twenty twenty five and we just let
Speaker 1: it all slip away. And no, they're building for the future.
Speaker 1: Our GM here right now should be up for GM
Speaker 1: of the Year already. They're already predicting some of the
Speaker 1: top coaches right now in the NBA to be Coach
Speaker 1: of the Year, and Mitch Johnson is one of them.
Speaker 1: I'm not applauding him because you know, we've already expected
Speaker 1: him to win in not at all. We got a long,
Speaker 1: year long season ahead of us. But at the same time,
Speaker 1: I mean, that's pretty amazing. Victor Webbin Yama is overseas
Speaker 1: in China getting in tune with the earth and spirituality.
Speaker 1: We pray that Jesus Christ enters his life. Yes I
Speaker 1: said it. I'm a christ guy. I'll say it on
Speaker 1: this show. But He reminds me of what Kareem Abdul
Speaker 1: Jabbar did before Magic came in, really trying to find
Speaker 1: his zen, his zone. And guess what, that's scary when
Speaker 1: you can balance it all life and this, that and
Speaker 1: the other thing, and you've got it all together at
Speaker 1: this young age. Be ready for Spurs fans dearon Fox
Speaker 1: wanted to come to San until for Steph Castle, for
Speaker 1: Wembin Yama. You don't think that's not a team ready
Speaker 1: to explode, but yet you want to disrupt the future
Speaker 1: and bring in somebody like a KD and Yannas. I'm
Speaker 1: not saying it's not gonna happen with Yanna's, but I'm
Speaker 1: just saying you'd have to give up an awful lot.
Speaker 1: I'd rather have an opportunity at the next twelve to
Speaker 1: fifteen years with this team because of the future picks.
Speaker 1: We have, the opportunities we can endure with next year's
Speaker 1: free agency, and the way the Spurs do it is right.
Speaker 1: They go after players you don't expect. If you take
Speaker 1: a look at the NBA Free Agency tracker on NBA
Speaker 1: dot com, just the free agents out there. We're not
Speaker 1: talking about the ones that have one year left on
Speaker 1: their contract and can move here and move there. We're
Speaker 1: not going to do that in this episode. Let's just
Speaker 1: focus on the free agents. Could even bring up a
Speaker 1: player that everybody's talking about. I mean his name is
Speaker 1: even on like poster board at WWE events and it
Speaker 1: says nas Reid. Like every city that's a basketball city
Speaker 1: that's a wwegos into, there's somebody in the crowd with
Speaker 1: a nas Reid sign. If Minnesota's smart, they re sign him.
Speaker 1: If you're really trying to keep what you have in
Speaker 1: Minnesota there, nas Reid is the guy with Anthony Edwards.
Speaker 1: Rudy's got another year or two, I would think, because
Speaker 1: it just seems like he's really flat footed, and it's
Speaker 1: I think, is he just looks like he's injury prone.
Speaker 1: But what do I know? But that guy's up with
Speaker 1: a player option and with that popularity. I think the
Speaker 1: Spurs would have to give up too much money for him,
Speaker 1: but he would be a great player in San Antonio.
Speaker 1: So let's take a look at some of the players
Speaker 1: that would fit the San Antonio Spurs mold. We need
Speaker 1: a forward, we need a power forward center, right, that's
Speaker 1: what we really need. Or some of y'all are saying shooting. Listen, listen,
Speaker 1: dearon Fox is that dude deeron Fox will boost our
Speaker 1: three point percentage next year. Wembin Yama can hit threes,
Speaker 1: even though here early in his career we don't like
Speaker 1: taking him taking them at times, but we see the
Speaker 1: glimpses of how great he could be behind the arc.
Speaker 1: He could be the first seven footer to enter a
Speaker 1: three point contest. By the way, can we bookmark that?
Speaker 1: What is this month? June June fifth, twenty twenty five.
Speaker 1: I said Wemby would be in the three point contest
Speaker 1: he wants to be. I could see it happening. I
Speaker 1: could see him winning it in a couple of years.
Speaker 1: But dearon Fox is that dude Steph Castle has to
Speaker 1: work on that three point range. They left him open
Speaker 1: a lot last year, but we've seen glimpses of what
Speaker 1: he can do and what his range can be. Devin
Speaker 1: Vassell had a amazing April last year from beyond the Arc.
Speaker 1: I think he broke a record. I think it was
Speaker 1: the most threes made in the month of April. See,
Speaker 1: we want to forget all the good things that these
Speaker 1: players do because we want to quickly reprimand them for
Speaker 1: the bad things that they're doing. Knock it off. There's
Speaker 1: a reason why we're silver and black. Find the silver lining,
Speaker 1: don't always focus on the black. I think that's our
Speaker 1: problem as fans. You got spoiled, and you get spoiled
Speaker 1: because you start to see what other teams are doing. Sorry,
Speaker 1: I'm so angry at y'all. I love y'all, but man,
Speaker 1: it's so frustrating watching like these accounts on X and
Speaker 1: social media getting all mad because we didn't get Kevin
Speaker 1: Duran in. Now Houston is going to be so much better?
Speaker 1: Are they? Are they going to be much better? They
Speaker 1: thought that when he went to Phoenix. They thought that
Speaker 1: when he went to Golden State, they'd win like eight
Speaker 1: more championships. I'm just saying, he demands a lot of
Speaker 1: that ball. That's why he's not a Spurs player. Let's
Speaker 1: look at who could be in the free agency market.
Speaker 1: Spurs could land somebody like a Steven Adams. Here's a
Speaker 1: journeyman eleven years. He's a banger. He brings in that
Speaker 1: toughness coming off the bench. Maybe for Wemby And I
Speaker 1: know what you're thinking, what about some of our big
Speaker 1: guys like Mamu and maybe a Charles Bassie. I love Bassie.
Speaker 1: If we re signed Bassie and Mamu, I am not mad.
Speaker 1: Just Mamu, work on your defense. That's all I ask.
Speaker 1: Work on your defense. It's like he wants to be
Speaker 1: more of a guard than a defender at times. Bassie
Speaker 1: does all of the little things that we need here
Speaker 1: in San Antonio. Right now, we've got the star in Wemby.
Speaker 1: We've got the other star in Fox. We got a
Speaker 1: rising star Castle. We've got a star as well, a
Speaker 1: side star. Sorry, Devin, love you, but I think he's
Speaker 1: gonna have a big year too. I think Devon's gonna
Speaker 1: have a big year. Why well, he's got two years
Speaker 1: left on his contract. He's gonna want to play hard
Speaker 1: this year if he wants an extension. Keep that in mind.
Speaker 1: Devin could be that player next year that we trade
Speaker 1: because we don't plan on bringing him back in two years.
Speaker 1: He's gonna play hard this year. Be ready. Keldon Johnson
Speaker 1: off the bench, Harrison Barnes still got another year. This
Speaker 1: Spurs team is equipped and I'll call it right now.
Speaker 1: Bookmark this. If we just stayed with what we have
Speaker 1: in stuck with our draft picks. We're making the playoffs
Speaker 1: next year, eight six seed. Maybe I think Golden State's
Speaker 1: gonna be on another down year. I'm sorry, Phoenix ain't
Speaker 1: even gonna be in contention. I'm not too sure about
Speaker 1: the Lakers yet unless they make a big move as well.
Speaker 1: They're looking at Burke, Lopez and more. And we'll go
Speaker 1: more in depth of what's going on in the NBA
Speaker 1: free agency market after the draft tonight, maybe in two weeks,
Speaker 1: we'll talk a little bit about that, but again, programming
Speaker 1: note real quick tonight, get ready for the NBA Draft.
Speaker 1: We may have another show tomorrow or Friday, and we'll
Speaker 1: talk a little bit about what the Spurs did and
Speaker 1: what that's going to do, especially if there's any breaking
Speaker 1: news on any trades. And then the following we would
Speaker 1: like to have a very special show with you guys
Speaker 1: talking about we're the Spurs Championships, a dynasty team. We'll
Speaker 1: talk a little bit about that, but a lot coming
Speaker 1: up over the next couple weeks here on the San
Speaker 1: Antonio Spurs Weekly Podcast. Taking a look at that free
Speaker 1: agency tracker. We already said Steven Adams, you know another
Speaker 1: guy that's played really well, that's been under the radar
Speaker 1: in Memphis, Santi al Dama, You're like, who if you
Speaker 1: watched any basketball this year, that man has some explosiveness
Speaker 1: and he's only been in the year for four years.
Speaker 1: He's a young player. Thirteen points a game, almost seven boards,
Speaker 1: three assists. That's a Spurs player. Someone that likes to
Speaker 1: pass the ball, likes to be explosive, someone that can
Speaker 1: shoot the ball. But another guy out of Minnesota the
Speaker 1: Spurs we're looking at was Nikkel Alexander Walker. Another guard though.
Speaker 1: Are they looking to move Malik Branham and maybe Malachi
Speaker 1: Branham sorry, and you know Wesley? Are they looking to
Speaker 1: move them? I think Wesley showed glimpses of very good
Speaker 1: defense at the end of the year last year. Put
Speaker 1: him in there as a stopper for five minutes on
Speaker 1: an SGA or somebody like that. Maybe that's his new role.
Speaker 1: We've always had that type of player. We've always had
Speaker 1: that type of player here in San Antonio that was
Speaker 1: a defensive player. He reminds me almost like a Alvin
Speaker 1: Robertson type. On the list. Charles Bassie is up for
Speaker 1: a possible he needs it. Will he be resigned Bismock Biambo.
Speaker 1: We still have these players. Charles Bassie was hurt. Will
Speaker 1: we extend his contract. He's only been in the league
Speaker 1: four years, he's been injured half of it. How about
Speaker 1: somebody that's maybe a journeyman we look down the list here,
Speaker 1: like a bizmock Biambo. We could get him cheap, maybe
Speaker 1: another year or two on the Spurs bench. How about
Speaker 1: some surprises like a bowl bowl. I said it. He
Speaker 1: hasn't had time to shine in Phoenix in the six
Speaker 1: years he's been there. And allegedly he has the same
Speaker 1: type of moves and handle that Wemby has. And if
Speaker 1: you put him and Wemby out there, I mean he's
Speaker 1: a monster. With him and Wemby, I mean that's he
Speaker 1: would be good here in San Antonio. I think he'd flourish.
Speaker 1: We could get him cheat. He is a free agent.
Speaker 1: You move down the list, a Clint Capella would be
Speaker 1: even good. John Collins, You're like, who out of Utah
Speaker 1: twenty points a game? He almost averaged last year nine boards.
Speaker 1: He's been in the league eight years, feels like he's
Speaker 1: been here for twenty. But he would be a good
Speaker 1: person to bring in and I know what you're thinking, Well,
Speaker 1: what about shooters. We need shooters. We need somebody that's
Speaker 1: a shooter. We've got shooters. They've just got to develop.
Speaker 1: And I think that's what the Spurs are looking at
Speaker 1: right now. Well, tonight, let's move on to the NBA
Speaker 1: draft for the San Antonio Spurs. A couple picks in
Speaker 1: the first couple of rounds here, of course, at number two,
Speaker 1: number fourteen, and number thirty eight. And I'm not even
Speaker 1: gonna go over what draft NBA draft dot Net said,
Speaker 1: my goodness, gracious, guard guard, guard, guard guard. That's all
Speaker 1: they want the Spurs picking is guard guard, guard guard.
Speaker 1: All right, we get it, We understand you want us
Speaker 1: to pick a guard, but we've got guards on the bench.
Speaker 1: Which is crazy to me. Right now where you are
Speaker 1: looking at Dylan Harper at number two, What does this
Speaker 1: do to the lineup for the Spurs if we draft him?
Speaker 1: Do we even keep him? Do we draft him and
Speaker 1: make a trade? Well? You ready for another rumor that's
Speaker 1: out there, Let's do it, right. You realize that the
Speaker 1: Brooklyn Nets have like eight picks in the draft tonight.
Speaker 1: What if we packaged a few picks from them, gave
Speaker 1: them the number two, and we grabbed someone that's been
Speaker 1: wanting to come here from the Nets, Cam Johnson. What
Speaker 1: would that do? Could that happen? I think the team
Speaker 1: to watch tonight is the Brooklyn Nets. What will they
Speaker 1: do with all of those picks? That's a lot of picks.
Speaker 1: That's a lot of picks in this pretty deep draft
Speaker 1: this year in the NBA draft. Some of the NBA
Speaker 1: mock drafts on ESPN right now, of course have san
Speaker 1: Antonio at fourteen picking right now according to ESPN, Joan
Speaker 1: Behringer overseas a center six eleven, two thirty five. But
Speaker 1: other players on the board. I would love to see them.
Speaker 1: Maybe if he slips in the draft, I don't know
Speaker 1: if he will. Where'd he go right here? I'm looking
Speaker 1: him up on the board right now, guys, No, they
Speaker 1: got him going right now. Looks like in the top ten, man,
Speaker 1: I mean, the Spurs could trade up with the Pelicans
Speaker 1: maybe at seven to go get come on, Malak out
Speaker 1: of Duke. I mean, you could possibly even see three
Speaker 1: Dukies in the top five. And I know that that
Speaker 1: didn't sound right. Three Dukeies in the top five. But
Speaker 1: Cooper Kahn and of course the big man in the middle.
Speaker 1: I'd love to see the Spurs land someone like him. Also,
Speaker 1: there's been rumors that we would go after the big
Speaker 1: man that's really good friends with Wemby, that they can
Speaker 1: get along. But I think the unsung hero could be
Speaker 1: the one out of Connecticut. He played with Steph Castle.
Speaker 1: I think that he could be a really good addition
Speaker 1: to the Spurs. I want to see where he's slipping.
Speaker 1: Derek Queen. Oh if Derreck Queen gets drafted by Oklahoma City, Oh,
Speaker 1: the Spurs better make some moves because I think Derek
Speaker 1: Queen's going to be a surprise in the NBA eventually.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to go down the draft here where else
Speaker 1: they would have the player for the Spurs. Asa Nowel
Speaker 1: out of Georgia could be another good pick for us.
Speaker 1: A power forward center, Liam McNeely. That's who I was
Speaker 1: thinking of. Liam McNeely. They have him going twenty to
Speaker 1: Miami in this one. Interesting considering the now rumor of
Speaker 1: Bama BYO. Interesting if they're going to draft somebody like
Speaker 1: Liam McNeely. Maybe they already know this. They're going to
Speaker 1: cut their financials a little in Miami. Maybe, But going
Speaker 1: after Liam McNeely would be good for the Spurs. I
Speaker 1: think I think he would fit our system very well. Again,
Speaker 1: so many freshmen in this draft, young young players. You know,
Speaker 1: he is sitting at roughly six foot seven, two fourteen.
Speaker 1: He has really good touch from the inside. He can
Speaker 1: hit the outside range a little bit. The nets are
Speaker 1: looking at him, he are looking at him and the Jazz.
Speaker 1: But again, we all know how ESPN is sometimes they
Speaker 1: don't fully know who do they have. The Spurs picking
Speaker 1: at thirty eight, let's take a look at that. But again,
Speaker 1: the Spurs, no matter what they do, they can package
Speaker 1: these players, get rid of these players, trade up with
Speaker 1: players in Brooklyn. I just can't believe how many picks
Speaker 1: they have this year. Brooklyn's going to be a team
Speaker 1: to watch in the next couple of years. Number thirty eight,
Speaker 1: they've got ya maryor wil Watkins out of Florida State,
Speaker 1: another small guard, small forward. Very interesting they're looking at that,
Speaker 1: you know, considering who we have at small guard and
Speaker 1: small forward, Devine another Florida State guy. So very interesting
Speaker 1: to see. What do the Spurs do tonight? Spurs fans,
Speaker 1: you can shout it out right now, will the Spurs
Speaker 1: go ahead and surprise and shock the world and say, hey,
Speaker 1: we're going to go after Ayannis. Hey we're going to
Speaker 1: go after a Bama bio. We are going to trade
Speaker 1: picks two and fourteen for Bama Bio and maybe a
Speaker 1: player to be named later in cash. Who knows tonight
Speaker 1: is more interesting about what can happen with those picks
Speaker 1: and not who we draft. Number two looks like it's
Speaker 1: going to be Dylan Harper. Does he fit the Spurs mole?
Speaker 1: A lot of you think he's better than Steph Castle.
Speaker 1: Calm down, he needs work on his outside shot too.
Speaker 1: And something I want to throw out there while Phil
Speaker 1: is dropping his beat in the background, do you realize
Speaker 1: two of these players in the top five out of
Speaker 1: Rutgers had a losing season. If they're as good as advertised,
Speaker 1: why didn't they win? These are things and intangibles that
Speaker 1: teams look at, and that's very, very scary. Are the
Speaker 1: Spurs even gonna draft Dylan Harper? Well, Dallas even draft
Speaker 1: Cooper Flag? Will they trade the number one pick? This
Speaker 1: is the most draft of all time. I think you
Speaker 1: don't know what's gonna happen. It must see TV tonight.
Speaker 1: Too bad? We were behind the eight ball. We could
Speaker 1: have talked about this late last week. However, hopefully this
Speaker 1: gets you ready for the draft tonight, we will see
Speaker 1: you on the flip side again. We will come to
Speaker 1: you with a breaking show as news happens. Okay, we
Speaker 1: will get our response from that news and we will
Speaker 1: bring it to you. But hopefully you enjoy this podcast
