Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls.
Speaker 2: Basketball fans, San Antonio Spurs fans, welcome to an electrifying
Speaker 2: edition in a new world with a new team and
Speaker 2: also your favorite host, a man of the Black and Silver.
Speaker 1: As a fan of over forty years.
Speaker 2: Damn right, yell, we too, a man in the realm
Speaker 2: of comedy over twenty years.
Speaker 1: Here he is your host, Jay Dizzle. What is going on,
Speaker 1: Spurs fans? Yes, keep that music pumped, Go Spurs Go.
Speaker 1: It is Monday and here in San Antonio, we are
Speaker 1: very excited to talk a little bit about the recent
Speaker 1: trade here in San Antonio that brings Dearn Fox Star,
Speaker 1: a stud an All Star, to pair with Victor Winbinyama
Speaker 1: and more with this great young Spurs team. We're gonna
Speaker 1: talk a little bit about that. We're gonna talk about
Speaker 1: how our GM should definitely win GM of the Year
Speaker 1: in San Antonio, not the Lakers and Luka Donich. Just
Speaker 1: because you have the fattest, deepest pockets doesn't make you
Speaker 1: the best GM, especially with this move here in San Antonio.
Speaker 1: We'll get in depth a little bit. I know some
Speaker 1: of you have seen it on ESPN. You've also seen
Speaker 1: it on other sources like TSR Sports on Yahoo. I've
Speaker 1: got to say TSR Sports usually has a really good
Speaker 1: breakdown on YouTube. Check them out. Our friends at the
Speaker 1: Baseline Bums, same thing, man, they have put together some
Speaker 1: good stuff. But we told you we're gonna bring you
Speaker 1: a show. When the news breaks. And I had to
Speaker 1: sit on this for a minute because it was like Christmas.
Speaker 1: I wasn't too sure if we actually got what we
Speaker 1: wanted for Christmas Day, if you know what I mean.
Speaker 1: You know, we open up the gift and we're like,
Speaker 1: this is true. We got this. Because the Spurs have
Speaker 1: some of the best poker faces in the NBA. They
Speaker 1: don't allow a lot out there to the public or
Speaker 1: their fans, and it feels like they're stringing us along
Speaker 1: at times, right Spurs fans, it really does. We're sitting
Speaker 1: here going, I don't think they're going to make any moves.
Speaker 1: I think they're gonna stick with just this young team
Speaker 1: and let it grow and then in the next six years,
Speaker 1: you know, we'll finally make an NBA final. Well, when
Speaker 1: you got a generational talent in year two that is
Speaker 1: one of the top ten players in the NBA already,
Speaker 1: someone who is being talked about as MVP early on,
Speaker 1: which Victor Winbiama has now slipped to tenth, which is
Speaker 1: interesting to me. But we've had a couple games slide here.
Speaker 1: But let's see what happens the second half of the season.
Speaker 1: Here for the Spurs doing this trade before going on
Speaker 1: the Rodeo road trip, it's fantastic. I think this is
Speaker 1: a great thing because this is gonna develop that camaraderie
Speaker 1: on the road, going out to dinner, going out to places,
Speaker 1: talking on the plane, watching a lot of film together.
Speaker 1: And this really catches a deer and fox up with
Speaker 1: this Furs team. We're gonna talk about that. We're gonna
Speaker 1: talk about the Lakers trade as well. We're gonna talk
Speaker 1: about how that changes the dynamics of the Lakers a
Speaker 1: little bit. But this is a great way to start
Speaker 1: a Monday, don't you think here in San Antonio? And
Speaker 1: I think we can start it a little better. And
Speaker 1: let's get it hight. Let's go Spurs fans, let's go.
Speaker 1: Are you not entertained? Is this not what you came for?
Speaker 1: You got that right? If you want some cum gins,
Speaker 1: you've got that here in San Antonio. Right now. With
Speaker 1: that recent trade, very very exciting. It's going to be
Speaker 1: bittersweet a little bit because when you're a Spurs fan,
Speaker 1: let's back the truck up. You can hear the excitement
Speaker 1: in my voice. But we need to talk about what
Speaker 1: the Spurs lost. Now. When it comes to players, you
Speaker 1: never want to lose players that were such good players
Speaker 1: to the fans, players that were good in the community,
Speaker 1: players that were team players. Zach Collins, Trey Jones is
Speaker 1: going to be missed now. Last year, I thought if
Speaker 1: the Spurs didn't make a move, Trey would have been
Speaker 1: that guy. I thought he would have learned and flourished
Speaker 1: underneath Chris Paul. I did not, and maybe you did
Speaker 1: not expect Stefan Castle to be the stud that he is.
Speaker 1: Stefan Castle has very much improved his game underneath the
Speaker 1: tutelage of Chris Paul. Now, can you imagine what's going
Speaker 1: to happen with Paul and Fox with Castle's game. Castle's
Speaker 1: Game's about ready to explode. I think everybody's game is
Speaker 1: about ready to explode. I think this gives players definitely
Speaker 1: an idea of their roles on this. This relieves a
Speaker 1: shoulder off of Chris Paul's chest and Victor Wembiniama's chest.
Speaker 1: Victor won't have to feel like he has to go
Speaker 1: out there every night and try to get forty. He
Speaker 1: can have mid twenties, high thirties. He can be almost
Speaker 1: Yannis like, which we'll talk about that Milwaukee game, Chris
Speaker 1: Paul's scrummle just a little bit. Spurs had a one
Speaker 1: in one weekend, of course, dropping one to Miami at
Speaker 1: the buzzer man bam a bio, bam a bio, bam
Speaker 1: a bio said bam at the end of the game.
Speaker 1: And Miami dropped us one five, one oh three. But
Speaker 1: we didn't have Wemby. This shows you the heart of
Speaker 1: the team. When Wemby's out of the lineup, we're we
Speaker 1: really are. Even though we didn't shoot very well from
Speaker 1: the field. We hung in that game. And back to
Speaker 1: backs are tough, which we know. You're cana have a
Speaker 1: great shooting night one night, which we did against the Bucks.
Speaker 1: I mean, how can we put up that many points?
Speaker 1: Who again, San Antonio look like the team of the
Speaker 1: future when they play that way and then the next
Speaker 1: night they only put up one oh three. That's without Victor.
Speaker 1: Victor's in the lineup, maybe twenty twenty five Spurs win
Speaker 1: by eighteen. Now with this trade here in San Antonio,
Speaker 1: I have a little clip from Bill Simmons. Of course,
Speaker 1: Bill Simmons is an underlying Spurs fan. Of course, just
Speaker 1: like Rachel Beatle in the media market. So let's check
Speaker 1: out what Bill has to say.
Speaker 3: It just feels like an incredible career move for Fox.
Speaker 3: It really does. It's like, Wow, I totally get what
Speaker 3: you're thinking here, this interesting moment for Darren Fox. We
Speaker 3: see these guys call their shot, these guys that push
Speaker 3: them pushed their way to another team. They're usually about
Speaker 3: half a level higher than Darren Fox, or they have
Speaker 3: some sort of playoff pedigree, like in Jimmy Butler's case.
Speaker 3: In this case, he doesn't have it. I think he's
Speaker 3: a player we've all thought was really talented. He's about
Speaker 3: to in his late twenties. We've seen him in the playoffs.
Speaker 3: He'd leap out in any great way. It's not like
Speaker 3: some Anthony Davis that one year in the playoffs when
Speaker 3: he just laid waste to the Blazers. He doesn't have
Speaker 3: any of that, And I think we all think he's
Speaker 3: really good. But now this spotlight is completely different. You're
Speaker 3: playing in Sacramento, you're buried, You're just another team in
Speaker 3: the West with all these famous players and teams. Now
Speaker 3: you're playing with the most famous international player that this
Speaker 3: league's going to have.
Speaker 1: And that's a great thing about San Antonio right now.
Speaker 1: In the de Aaron Fox trade, great take by Bill Simons,
Speaker 1: Also Denny Green. Can we give Denny Green a round
Speaker 1: of applause? Denny, if you're out there listening, man, you
Speaker 1: called it, you said, this is a great fit for
Speaker 1: san Antonio. A great fit for de Aaron Fox for
Speaker 1: a couple of reasons. One, his taxes. Think about this,
Speaker 1: when you're making millions of dollars in California, you're getting
Speaker 1: robbed in Texas. When you come to Texas, it's a
Speaker 1: considerably slower amount. Save in a little bit of money
Speaker 1: that helps your family in the future. It also helps
Speaker 1: your next contract as well when you go into negotiations
Speaker 1: what the Spurs are going to need in twenty twenty six.
Speaker 1: I was a little nervous about this trade because of
Speaker 1: him next year being a free agent. But according to sources,
Speaker 1: they are saying that they wouldn't have signed this deal
Speaker 1: given up what they gave up if he wasn't going
Speaker 1: to stay, this is a perfect opportunity for Fox too.
Speaker 1: When it came to Denny Green, Denny Green stated that
Speaker 1: he doesn't want to be the it guy. He never has.
Speaker 1: He wants to go out and ball and win. In Sacramento,
Speaker 1: he was given a lot of minutes. I was looking
Speaker 1: at his stats last night, thirty three and a half minutes.
Speaker 1: He was playing almost thirty five at times. That puts
Speaker 1: a lot on young legs, especially a point guard. So
Speaker 1: now coming over to San Antonio, where it looks like
Speaker 1: Chris Paul may go to the bench, I don't think
Speaker 1: for the first week or so you'll see Dearan in
Speaker 1: the starting lineup. I'd be shocked. If they throw him
Speaker 1: right in, I'd be shocked. Chris Paul has this team running.
Speaker 1: I think him and Chris Paul are gonna split that
Speaker 1: time pretty equally, and that's great for Fox. Ease him in.
Speaker 1: San Antonio is a great place for load management. They
Speaker 1: really are. They know when to give and they know
Speaker 1: when to take away. Chris Paul, this helps him out
Speaker 1: a lot. A man that can play only probably twenty
Speaker 1: five minutes. We've seen his minutes go down a little bit.
Speaker 1: He can average ten points and eight assists. He can
Speaker 1: definitely get you those seven assists a game, and that
Speaker 1: was something we were missing off the bench. Let's be true.
Speaker 1: Let's be honest. Trey Jones had flashes of that where
Speaker 1: he could get six or seven assists a night and
Speaker 1: get that second team going. But now, if you look
Speaker 1: at this second team, Chris Paul, Mamu Bassie, you're also
Speaker 1: looking at the likes of Kelden Johnson, Julian Champenne. That's
Speaker 1: a solid second team with a floor general like Chris Paul.
Speaker 1: That's gonna get Julian some more open shots. Can you
Speaker 1: imagine the pick and roll scenario with Chris Paul and Johnson.
Speaker 1: I think this is a really good move for San Antonio.
Speaker 1: So somebody you are saying, well, Dearon Fox is going
Speaker 1: to be in the starting lineup, Absolutely, Dearon Fox will
Speaker 1: be your starting point guard in San Antonio and especially
Speaker 1: for the future. Chris Paul knows that. That's why he
Speaker 1: signed a one year contract. They knew they were going
Speaker 1: to look for somebody else down the line. A lot
Speaker 1: of people thought Chris Paul would be moved at the
Speaker 1: trade deadline, but I honestly believe that would mess up
Speaker 1: the camaraderie at the Spurs. Another great job by the Spurs.
Speaker 1: GM Brian Wright has done an amazing job. Not only
Speaker 1: did we trade Zach Collins and trade Jones, who are
Speaker 1: going to be very well missed in San Antonio when
Speaker 1: it comes to the way they are in types of
Speaker 1: people they are. Collins had a rough year. Zach had
Speaker 1: a rougher year than I think most of us imagined.
Speaker 1: A go get her, a hustler on the floor. He's
Speaker 1: going to be a nice backup to Vusevich now in Chicago.
Speaker 1: Trey Jones going to be a nice backup off the
Speaker 1: bench for the Bulls. But those two may not even
Speaker 1: be there by the end of the year anyway. They
Speaker 1: may finish out their year in Chicago and Bedell elsewhere.
Speaker 1: And they are players that are always going to be
Speaker 1: remembered here in San Antonio, you know, a part of
Speaker 1: that transitional era, and that transition era is now and
Speaker 1: they're doing it for Wehm Binyama. Speaking of Victor Wehm Binyama,
Speaker 1: what a class act. Can we give him a round
Speaker 1: of applause as well? Excuse me? The reason is, you
Speaker 1: could have a young player get frustrated pretty easy. You
Speaker 1: could have a generational young player get very frost traded,
Speaker 1: if you know what I mean. We've seen it with
Speaker 1: some of the old head players in the NBA getting frustrated.
Speaker 1: I just don't want to play anymore. They're taking away
Speaker 1: the joy of basketball from a Jimmy Butler. The Anthony
Speaker 1: Edwards types who complain and whine. Don't get me wrong,
Speaker 1: I love those players. I love watching them. I love
Speaker 1: cheering for them when the Spurs are not in the playoffs,
Speaker 1: I love cheering for their game. With a lot of
Speaker 1: the analysis, who thought that Jimmy Butler was coming to
Speaker 1: San Antonio your nuts. We even played a what if
Speaker 1: city situation here on the show a few months back.
Speaker 1: What if san Antonio goes after Anthony Edwards in the
Speaker 1: next couple of years. That's why they traded Rob Dillingham.
Speaker 1: You can see Rob Dillingham now getting some playing time.
Speaker 1: Aren't you glad we traded him? Though? I think he
Speaker 1: has tremendous upside, But I don't think he has the
Speaker 1: upside that castle. With that being said, Anthony Edwards types
Speaker 1: Butler types don't fit the mold of what a spur is.
Speaker 1: Victor winmin Yama gets a round of applause because in
Speaker 1: the media he just comes right out and says, I
Speaker 1: trust our GM, I trust our management staff that they're
Speaker 1: going to do the right thing at the trade deadline.
Speaker 1: He doesn't come out and say, we're struggling, we need
Speaker 1: to do something. We got to make some changes, We've
Speaker 1: got to get some people out of here. He doesn't
Speaker 1: do that because a disreps team chemistry doesn't look like
Speaker 1: a pre Madonna unlike some other players that we notably
Speaker 1: talk about a lot Lebron on the Lakers, and we'll
Speaker 1: talk about that in a minute before we get out
Speaker 1: of here. But the projected starting lineup here now in
Speaker 1: San Antonio, man, it just looks good. As a matter
Speaker 1: of fact, I changed my screensaver. I'm a tablet because
Speaker 1: of it. And now the future of this team, the
Speaker 1: future I believe Harrison Barnes will move to the bench
Speaker 1: and Jeremy Sohan will eventually come in. We need a
Speaker 1: power power forward. If you're gonna keep Victor at center,
Speaker 1: you need someone who's gonna bruise and bang underneath and
Speaker 1: take some of that banging off of Victor, someone that
Speaker 1: can switch over on a Yannis and bang Yanis for
Speaker 1: a couple plays. Somebody that they can nab, like a
Speaker 1: brandon Ingram, someone they can nab like we've been saying
Speaker 1: Junis Valcunis out of Washington. I don't think the Spurs
Speaker 1: are done yet. I think they'll get one more piece.
Speaker 1: I do not think they're done right now. Projected starting
Speaker 1: lineup though, for the second half of the season for
Speaker 1: the Spurs de Aaron Fox, Steph Castle, the Sell, Barnes,
Speaker 1: Wimban Yama. I'd like this for right now because Fox
Speaker 1: and Barnes have played together. Fox knows where to get
Speaker 1: Harrison the ball, knows when to get Harris in the ball.
Speaker 1: I really like it. I think this is going to
Speaker 1: free up Devon as well. Devon, if you're out there listening,
Speaker 1: you don't have to be the killer anymore. You can
Speaker 1: remain the player that you are where you're picking your spots.
Speaker 1: I also saw an article just the other night about
Speaker 1: how Devin Vessell doesn't come out and really play hard
Speaker 1: unless we're up or we're down. That's when you see
Speaker 1: his stats increase. So Devin, if you're out there listening,
Speaker 1: make those people eat their lunch. I believe if you
Speaker 1: can stay at consistent fifteen to twenty, Barnes needs to
Speaker 1: get fifteen to twenty. He just has to. We need
Speaker 1: those couple threes to extend the floor. Castle's in that
Speaker 1: range right now. If Castle develops this jumper, this is crazy.
Speaker 1: Dearin Fox is such a great additions per fans that
Speaker 1: we finally got a score that averages twenty five or more,
Speaker 1: not can average. We have a lot of can averages
Speaker 1: on this team. Keldon can hit twenty, so In can
Speaker 1: hit twenty. The cel can hit twenty. Dearon Fox definitely
Speaker 1: hits twenty. I should have rephrased that may hit twenty.
Speaker 1: We have a lot of great young talent on this
Speaker 1: team that may average. De Aaron can there you go?
Speaker 1: Victor woman Yama, we know what he can do. How
Speaker 1: about this pick and roll situation? Now? With dearon Fox,
Speaker 1: we didn't see Lobb City quite work, did we. We
Speaker 1: see it from time to time, but we expected the
Speaker 1: old day Clippers here in San Antonio. That's not gonna happen.
Speaker 1: I think paying for Chris Paul's knowledge was so worth it,
Speaker 1: and is so worth it will Chris Paul come back
Speaker 1: next year. I think it depends on where the Spurs
Speaker 1: finish this year. What if the Spurs can contend for
Speaker 1: the eight spot? I mean you're going to see probably
Speaker 1: Dallas struggle for a little bit. Who's going to score
Speaker 1: on that team? Yes, a d but now you've got
Speaker 1: to change your dynamic of that team from a kind
Speaker 1: of push it up the floor. Luca can hit three
Speaker 1: type presents to a defensive, slow down presence. With all
Speaker 1: the big men, you have Derek Lively, now you also
Speaker 1: have ad You have a cast of others that play
Speaker 1: really well in Dallas. And can Kyrie be that man?
Speaker 1: Can Kyrie be the it guy in Dallas? A lot
Speaker 1: of what ifs Dallas? The Lakers? What about the Lakers?
Speaker 1: I love Luca Man, I love Luca. Our A preseason
Speaker 1: pick that win the West was Dallas. Now they've fallen apart. Luca.
Speaker 1: I pray that he has an amazing run in him left.
Speaker 1: And I'm not saying it like he's finished, but he
Speaker 1: puts a lot of load on his back where he
Speaker 1: eats up a lot of minutes. You can see that
Speaker 1: he was hurting. The playoffs last year carried over to
Speaker 1: this year. Him not playing a lot this year cost
Speaker 1: him a lot of awards. Maybe it's a fresh start
Speaker 1: in La. Can Luca handle that type of limelight? Can
Speaker 1: Lebron James work with somebody like that? We've seen it
Speaker 1: try to work before you brought in ad Ooh yes,
Speaker 1: Laker fans, you got one ring, one ring, just like
Speaker 1: you guys say, nobody wants that Mickey Mouse ring from
Speaker 1: we want a real ring. Now. I'm not saying that,
Speaker 1: y'all fans have said that because you know it was bogus.
Speaker 1: The NBA was down in viewership ticket sales because of COVID.
Speaker 1: So what do they do do They write the script
Speaker 1: for Lebron to win one? Absolutely, and I know some
Speaker 1: of y'all are laughing right now, but if that wasn't
Speaker 1: the case, the Lakers would have won not one, not two,
Speaker 1: not three, not four, not five. You would have won
Speaker 1: more than one in the past five years. Now, adding Luca,
Speaker 1: I think the people that are gonna flourish for the
Speaker 1: Lakers Dalton connect and reeves they are going to benefit
Speaker 1: from Luca's passing knowledge. Lebron can move over a little
Speaker 1: bit benefit as well well, and a little bit of
Speaker 1: load off of him. But I still think the Lakers
Speaker 1: bench is weak, so we'll see what happens there. But
Speaker 1: back here in San Antonio, it may not have been
Speaker 1: the blockbuster trade like Luca being traded, but man, it
Speaker 1: was close enough with Deer and Fox. Now come into
Speaker 1: San Antonio a man that averages twenty five points in
Speaker 1: his career, five rebounds, and six assists, and he's in
Speaker 1: the top ten in pick and roll scenarios. Look what
Speaker 1: he did with Sabonis in Sacramento. Now he adds Victor
Speaker 1: more height, he can throw the ball up a little higher.
Speaker 1: He goes from a power player to you could say,
Speaker 1: a finesse player right now. Once he adds on that weight, though, lookout,
Speaker 1: I really think he's going to be about the size
Speaker 1: of Janniska Patumbo. I do. I think Victor is going
Speaker 1: to be that big within the next three to four years.
Speaker 1: Speaking of that big game in Santa Antonio, let's take
Speaker 1: a step back and look at the Spurs a couple
Speaker 1: nights ago. Of course, it's been a pretty good couple
Speaker 1: of days here in San Antonio. We already talked about
Speaker 1: the heat game where we dropped. That game was a
Speaker 1: back to back and of course the heat one at
Speaker 1: the buzzer on that one is going to be a
Speaker 1: tough month for the Spurs. So let's see what they
Speaker 1: end up doing here. And they started off in a
Speaker 1: good way by ending January with blowing out the Bucks.
Speaker 1: Did anyone see this coming? Even your boy thought this
Speaker 1: would be a rough one or a close one against
Speaker 1: the Bucks. The main story in this one was how
Speaker 1: the Spurs shot lights out, how the Spurs and that
Speaker 1: future looked. Wem ben Yama and Castle combining for fifty
Speaker 1: wem Benyama and Castle combining for twenty two rebounds. Castle
Speaker 1: was a great game twenty points, eight rebound, six assists
Speaker 1: against the Bucks. Keldon Johnson saying I don't want to
Speaker 1: be traded. I don't want to be traded, came out
Speaker 1: with twenty four. The man looked like Michael Jordan in
Speaker 1: this one. Watch his game, hitting jumpers from the corner,
Speaker 1: mid range shots, taking it to the hoops, spreading the
Speaker 1: legs like Jordan. That is the kJ we want to
Speaker 1: see off the bench every night. kJ, every freaking night.
Speaker 1: You're a monster. And now you have Chris Paul coming
Speaker 1: in possibly off the bench with you. Boy, You're gonna flourish.
Speaker 1: Let's get that sixth Man of the Year award. I
Speaker 1: think you can make a run for it. Jeremy Sohan
Speaker 1: still continues to struggle, though I think it's his back.
Speaker 1: Two points, seven rebounds, two assists. So this is why
Speaker 1: you're not gonna see Sohan move into that starting lineup
Speaker 1: just yet. But I mean, can you think about it.
Speaker 1: Chris Paul makes players better, right, So now he moves
Speaker 1: to the bench. He's gonna make Johnson and Sohand better
Speaker 1: and Champagne better. Hey, he's gonna tell you, Champagne move
Speaker 1: without the ball, move get open. You see him do
Speaker 1: it on the floor. Now with Victor, you see him
Speaker 1: do it with Castle the cell. Well, now he's like
Speaker 1: a proud papa saying, I'm pushing you out of the nest.
Speaker 1: The starting five is yours. I'm gonna kick back here
Speaker 1: for a few once Dearon gets inundated, and then it's y'all,
Speaker 1: let's pretend to put Dearon Fox into the lineup, okay,
Speaker 1: and give him that twenty points a game. So when Biama, sorry,
Speaker 1: I said that, very very funky. When Victor is averaging
Speaker 1: twenty five, Taron averages twenty five. If Castle averages twenty,
Speaker 1: right there, friends, that's seventy points. That's your big three.
Speaker 1: Vicel now can be that laid back guy that can
Speaker 1: hit for fifteen. That's eighty five. Barnes on any given
Speaker 1: night can give you fifteen. That's one hundred points from
Speaker 1: your starters. Now you move Paul to the bench, who
Speaker 1: as of late, he can get you double digits. He
Speaker 1: can hit a couple threes when we need it. Say
Speaker 1: he gives you ten off the bench. But Kelden's gonna
Speaker 1: give you now that fifteen points, there's twenty five. That's
Speaker 1: one twenty five. Right there, folks, we're in the mix.
Speaker 1: We're in the mix. A lot of you out there
Speaker 1: too have sent me emails and texts. Do you really
Speaker 1: think Dearon is a great fit in San Antonio. He's
Speaker 1: the only guy this year to score sixty. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: say that again. He's the only guy in the NBA
Speaker 1: this year. He was the first to score sixty. Can
Speaker 1: you imagine if there's a night where the rest of
Speaker 1: the team is off, but Victor and him are on,
Speaker 1: they could have one hundred points together. That's scary. That
Speaker 1: is scary and That's what the Spurs needed. Scary dearon Fox,
Speaker 1: That's what we needed in San Antonio. We really did,
Speaker 1: and Spurs fans we need to welcome him with open arms.
Speaker 1: We really do. But the Spurs started off the week
Speaker 1: with a big win, then dropping to the Heat one five,
Speaker 1: one three. A tough one there. But some of you
Speaker 1: who have asked me to really quick before we get
Speaker 1: out of here, what about the bench? Trey Jones is gone. Well,
Speaker 1: Chris Paul replaces him. I like that we kept Wesley.
Speaker 1: He could play really good defense off the bench, which
Speaker 1: he did against Milwaukee had like what three straight steals.
Speaker 1: Had That flourish with MoMu City Sisko didn't work out
Speaker 1: the way we thought. He's a dynamic dunker, but man,
Speaker 1: he turns the ball over a lot. I'm gonna tell
Speaker 1: you right now. Somebody said, what about the bench? What
Speaker 1: about the bench? I want you to pay attention to
Speaker 1: two people who were in street clothes. This is how
Speaker 1: you know the Spurs. We're going to make a trade.
Speaker 1: Be ready for Riley Minnis and Harrison Ingrin. Harrison Ingram
Speaker 1: is gonna be a bruiser. He reminds me almost like
Speaker 1: Cadillac Anderson back in the day that can score. Riley
Speaker 1: Minnicks can shoot the lights out. Taking a quick look
Speaker 1: at Riley's time in Austin, he only played three games
Speaker 1: this year, almost thirteen points a game, shooting over fifty
Speaker 1: percent from the field. That's a really fantastic stat shooting
Speaker 1: over fifty percent from the field. And oh, by the way,
Speaker 1: Spurs fans, he shot forty eight percent from three point
Speaker 1: range forty eight percent. Go do your homework on this guy,
Speaker 1: Riley Minnis. Riley Minnis I believe will be an unsung
Speaker 1: hero on this team. He's going to be the one
Speaker 1: that's going to be almost like your Dalton connect. I
Speaker 1: think he could have the potential of an Austin Reeves.
Speaker 1: I really do, once he gets his groove on this team.
Speaker 1: I watched him in pre season here in San Antonio
Speaker 1: and he looked phenomenal. Undrafted out of Morehead State, these
Speaker 1: are the type of players of Spurs like. Twenty twenty
Speaker 1: four to twenty twenty five average nineteen points, seven boards,
Speaker 1: three assists. That's the type of player we like. Reminds
Speaker 1: me also of a younger Dougie mcbuckets, but with athleticism.
Speaker 1: Riley Minnis is one to watch here in say Antonio
Speaker 1: and Harrison Barnes, Sorry, Harrison Ingram, that is going to
Speaker 1: be tough here in San Antonio. We got two Harrison's right.
Speaker 1: It's bad enough when I tried to say Castle and
Speaker 1: Vassell and I say Cassel, all right, because I'm an
Speaker 1: old school basketball dude, all right. But taking a look
Speaker 1: at Harrison Ingram, looking at his stats, he played a
Speaker 1: lot more than Riley this year in Austin sixteen minutes
Speaker 1: sixteen games played, he averaged thirty three minutes a game.
Speaker 1: You can see they were putting their time into him,
Speaker 1: the other top draft pick, and he didn't disappoint folks.
Speaker 1: Is field goal percentage could be better, but he averaged
Speaker 1: almost twelve points a game and eight boards, four assists.
Speaker 1: Twelve points, eight boards, four assists, and by the way,
Speaker 1: in sixteen games, one one turnover. Harrison Ingram, Riley Minnicks
Speaker 1: are going to be fun to watch on the bench.
Speaker 1: Bringing in Dearon Fox is going to be fun. And
Speaker 1: the San Antonio Spurs future has landed. But guess what
