The more I think about it, it's just 2 guard dogs that just get after it on both sides they are essentially a bad matchup for any guard duo.
Castle being much bigger and stronger than most guards and just a defensive pest, he'll start getting calls while being more efficient he just has to keep attacking, but at his peak no one is stopping that man from getting in the paint at will, he's so crafty and slithery while being that size. He can really be something special, he already knows what it takes to win he just has to adjust to the nba (which i don't get why people were so quick to rid him- he might be one of those draft picks that kind of changed tides for a franchise) he has everything you want in a guard next to fox vice versa.
Fox countering that and just blowing by most defenses, he has the reliable mid range to beat poor defenders and is a really good pnr playmaker. The 3 level scoring is real, he's not that much of a knockdown shooter but when it comes down to it he hits the biggest shots when you need him to, and again there's no one stopping him from getting to that rim.
Having 2 guys like this just make wemby's life so much easier it might take a while to gel because fox is so dominant and they aren't the best shooters, but just thinking about it if vassell isn't the fit, the pick you would use in this draft can slide up in place, that freakish wing which i think is our next step, but yeah just the duo itself can be really fun to watch.
As per title, now that Fox is a Spur what happens to CP3?
Does he:
We lost 3 bench players, gained a starter and more than likely someone that will be cut asap, you know, because they score 1 pt a game.
Barring another trade, who fills in the 2 spots? harrison Ingram? duke? Minix is out. or do we sign bamba once released by Utah?
I mean, after the Doncic trade, could we just, you know, trade a second rounder for Day'ron Sharpe from the Nets or Guerschon Yabesele of the 76ers? These are tanking teams now no?
Edit: Or we go trade one first rounder for Embiid? 😂
I know that last point may not go over well with everyone, but the real point is that it looks like this organization, as expected, will properly build around Wemby and set him up to lead the team to the promised land multiple times. This is fun
So with all the excitement I hadn’t even thought of the starting lineup, how we gonna do this, obviously Wemby starts, sochan, vassell, fox, cp3? Castle? Man this is wild just thinking about possible lineups
What’s good spurs nation? I’m sure I don’t need to explain the situation. I’m a Dallas mavericks refuge.
I’m obviously very aware of the Spurs, their history (our history?) and the current roster. But I just wanted to get a feel for the fanbase. Yalls favorite players on rosters, what yall wanna do at the deadline (getting Fox for essentially nothing is fucking huge) and expectations for the team this season and going forward.
I look forward rooting for the Spurs and getting everyone’s perspective
Por Vida
Let’s go
We’re happily welcome you guys to join area 51!!
Anyone have any good follows for Spurs pages on Instagram?
Any idea why Shams has indicated that Fox is wearing 8? Unlikely that Castle gives up 5, but I’ve not seen any substantiation for 8.
Not only did the Mavs probably get worse with the Luka trade but we just brought in the best costar that wemby has had. Amazing 2 day stretch for us.
CP3 has been vocal that he came here to start, and that he accepted but didn't like coming off the bench in GSW.
Now with Fox, how are we going to navigate this? There are four options as I see it:
I think only scenarios 1 and 4 make any sense. I could see us trading him to maybe OKC for a couple seconds?
I'd obviously prefer he stay, he's central to the culture change this last year.
Alright real question is when will fox play his debut and when can I get a shirt 🤩😍
Remarkable moves by the GM 🤝🔥
The recent slump we have seen our 2nd lineup being out rebounded and have no one to stop opponent's big in the paint. What is the constraint forcing us to do so? I've heard that Bassey couldn't mesh offensively but is it that broken that makes him unplayable?
Please win a championship. Fox was absolutely loved in Sacramento, and our front office failed him, and made him out to look like the bad guy in this whole situation all the way back to the Mike Brown firing. Couldn't be happier to see him go from a dumpster fire organization, to arguably the most stable organization in the NBA.
Good luck Spurs, will be rooting for you guys except against the Kings.
I’m not sure. We are still drastically missing a serviceable backup center. Maybe the play in but I don’t know. Stoked for these next few games to see how this team gels together with Fox.
This year - make the 1st round
Next year - win a playoff series
2 years - championship contender
With Zach gone we have very little front court depth. We need to find another trade to net us a big.
My hope is we get Chris Boucher from Toronto. Last year of his contract, but a good piece off the bench. It probably needs to be part of a multiple team trade, but it shouldn't be that difficult.
When can fox sign the extension with the spurs?
also is there any news?
♥️
Kings fan here. I remember Siddy from the draft as being a huge project that could be an elite defensive player. How has his G League run been this year?
