Spurs are coming back from the dead 🧟‍♂️

Pop and CP3 around to help grow and teach Wemby his first few years in the league? Just as a pure basketball fan that shit makes me happy.

One aspect you didn't really highlight is CP's mentorship regarding Castle, the rookie wants to be a pg and they just got a top 5 pg of all-time with a basketball IQ on par with lbj, the amount of experience and knowledge castle is gonna get out of cp is crazy. The future looks even brighter for the spurs with this draft and early free agency acquisitions. lovd ur vid keep up the great analysis and good work !!

If we keep Jeremy, I think we need to stop looking at him as a power forward. I think he could do much better in the NBA playing at the three. Just tell him to focus more on three-point shooting. He has shown improvement from there and he could be a 3 and D with versatility. GSG

Best wemby CP3 vid I’ve seen!! Love the spurs content they’re on the rise

Sochan is considered an integral part of the spurs future going forward by patfo. Would be very surprised if they moved him or benched him

Cp3 made deandre jordan all nba player during his stint in clips

When you read what Dillingham said after being traded to the Wolves, you understand why the Spurs prefered Stephon Castle. One clearly fits in the Spurs altruism, as the other is just selfish, and they already knew that, the franchises boards know EVERYTHING about you man…

And wemby will be back from olympics... just keep in mind that most players gain a lot of experience from international showdowns

Kwahi 2.0 with better passing and shooting. They essentially drafted a future ALL-NBA player. They have the best post defender, possibly ever, and added a backcourt defense menace. Good luck scoring on them.Spurs are a class of their own.

Love your take, very well put my brother 👏

This is an excellent take, man. You really paint the picture. I'm as locked into San Antonio basketball going back 3 decades (been a sports journalist most of my adult life), and this take is just right on the money. It's not over the top, but it doesn't sell the key parts short. Wemby + Castle is going to be the truth, and adding Chris Paul to run the show for a year or maybe two is brilliant Pop/RC magic - the Spurs need a dude with his head calm and on a swivel to show them how to take care of the ball and find that groove. Super excited for this, and hoping like hell they can move some picks and a player or two to pick up Markkanen. They'll definitely push for the playoffs with Lauri, and they'll have an outside shot to make a play-in game with the roster as it is now.

Keldon Johnson wears #3, he’s gonna get traded so Chris Paul can wear that number 😂

We needa get Lauri markennan

awesome video ..

CP for 11 mill is one of the best value contracts in the league. I was stunned he went there instead of somewhere else for more.

The Chris Paul signing is IN.SANE! It will turn them into an organized team, it will prolongue Paul's career by a lot and Wemby will become the featured centerpiece both on offense and defense.

Chris Paul is a toothpick away from having season ending injury

If the spurs don’t get Markannen, I can see their starting 5 being Paul, castle, Vassell, sochan, wemby. If they get markannen, it’s Paul Vassell, markannen, sochan, wemby. Castle will still get a lot of minutes and may even close out games with Paul. Which makes me believe they won’t get Lauri lol.

yo that 3:17 layup was Kyrie Irving package... Victor is insane

Subscribed! Go Spurs Go to infinity ♾️ and beyond!! 😂

Coach Mitch Johnson will be our next head coach. Pop has had him under his wing for a little while now… Iykyk #210

Chris paul about to average 20 assist 😂

Might me my 1st round pick next year. Was a monster rookie year!

I'm praying VW stays healthy and that he finds the Trinity b/c I have never seen VW acknowledge the Trinity in his interviews.

I hope they sign Markkanen and begin competing this season. Wemby is so good, he deserves a chance at the post season asap!

They also drafted Nuñez.

If I have to watch Zach Collins get dunked on or punked out one more time I’m gonna throw up.

He's never averaged more than 4 ast since highschool. He's not a natural point guard. Haliburton averaged 6.5ast in his last year, and they still called him a combo guard coming out.

Collins has to go. More than anyone else. His foul problems are infuriating and he's an average offensive player. I wish they would have been able to get clingan with castle as a complementary big man to wemby

They're looking good. Now it's time to put Popovich to pasture.

CP3 is gonna play the role he did for okc which mentoring and leadership

“Spurs are smart” yeah man we know. We literally been doin this type of thing for years

Keldon is trade bait. And why are people forgetting about Sochan? With VW-Sochan-Castle that is a D juggernaut in the 4Q. And CP3 is still a good defender. And DO NOT FORGET ABOUT BLAKE WESLEY. So much improvement in Year 2. Spurs will see what they have in Year 3 as a FT rotational player.

We can’t be that smart. Been getting our asses kicked in the post Tim Duncan era.

Everyone is entitled to their opinions. That said, it's stunning how many people truly believe Chris Paul is a top 5 PG of all time. Maybe top 10 but that's debatable.

Plus, they don't like to pay free agaents at all in history

But they coulda had rob dillingham as well 🫣

They did not trade Dillingham for 2 picks. The 2030 is a pick SWAP. 2031 is the Unprotected pick the Spurs gained.

At the 4th pick Castle really was a no-brainer pick. I think they would have taken Ron Holland at #8 but Detroit picked someone they did not need, which is why Detroit has sucked for years and will suck for years to come. Cade Cunningham signing an extension on a perennial lottery team was stupid.

Spurs under Pop are one of, if not the best team at player development. Kawhi Leonard couldn't shoot the 3 very well and now he's very good. Beat Philly with a long fadeaway jumping off the 3 point line.

Hope he's gonna explain the Dillingham trade

Sochan is not great defender, he is good defender

Castle not coming off the bench I bet. Paul, Vassell, Castle, Sochan, Wemby are the starters so far.

“Wait, you mean we can get a six foot tall, 40 year old point guard? It’s almost too easy.”

1.paul 2.castle 3.vassel 4.lauri 5.wemby Play-off next season.

yeeeees lets go

CP3 will only play for a year or two, so Tre Jones should be considered a second point guard, not a third. It would be stupid to trade him, and then be left with only a single PG next year (unless you plan to get another PG, ofc)

dnt think they will trade Jones coz they have chris Paul remember Chris Paul is now 39 and he is injury prone..trading Jones is really make a big hole on the spurs roster specially he is the only true point guard of the spurs...Keldon is different story tho

See what CP3 did for SGA in LA

The starting lineup will be Wemby, Sochan, Castle, Vassell and Paul. And Castle will switch to the PG in 2025.

Tre Jones improved his 3 point % as the season went on. Spurs need a center that's not a liability on defense.

No talk about Ingram or Nunez??

45+ wins; 4-5 seed; Mark my words, the Spurs will compete next year...VW will be so great the Spurs will be too good to be bad enough to be a lottery team. VW will win the Most Improved Player aware in his Year 2. No one has ever done that. Those who cannot see that he will be even greater in Year 2, esp w/CP3, have no vision. Maybe Spurs will be bringing onboard an all-star veteran player (TBD) to help get VW his ring in Year 2, which is when TDuncan got his first ring. Grab your popcorn b/c the "D" juggernaut (VW-Sochan-Castle) that will be the Spurs next season will have some fireworks with VW at Point Center and CP3 as PG.

San Antonio aint gone bust a grape in a fruit fight Signed a Grizzlies fan

Sochan , Mamu and Barlow must stay

The lucky bounce of the ping pong balls had more to do with the Spurs success than smarts.

Tre Jones is a b/u PG.

Sochan will start

Spurs are smart but this year's 2024 draft they f..ked up trading dillingham. That will go down as the stupidest move ever by the spurs organization

No this was stupid... they didn't get 2 extra 6tt graders... they got 1. The 2030 part was just a pick swap and could be meaningless if Wolves are still good (likely) by then. The 2031 pick could be #30 for all we know. In the end, this trade could be all star point guard selected #8 for pick #30... That's the worst case scenario. The likely scenario is they stay pat or move up maybe 2 to 3 spots in 2030 but stay in the 20's and the gain a 20-30 1st rounder in 2031. I'd anticipate both teams being good by then as they have two of the youngest super talents in the game

OKC Thunder entered the chat.

Get rid of Collins and champagnie

Trade Sochan and a random pick for Tobias Harris. Get Mamu into more rotations. They might win 45 games

Rob Dillingham is going to make the Spurs look absolutely inane in the draft, that move that they did, that trade for the two first rounders in 2030 and 2031 for what appears to be the most explosive scorer in this year's class, what a terrible trade, as a matter of fact, this is going to go down as the worst trade in NBA history! Keep telling yourself what you want to hear, Spurs fans.

They should trade Sochan fr or just wave him

Most dominant rookie yet the team doesn’t win one more game than the complete tank the previous year?

Delusion at its highest. CP3 is 40 years old and not good anymore. He will also be injured half the season. The rookie isn’t about to do anything. They won 20 games last season. Might get to 25 this year.

Joic is not top ten center of all time. Them numbers mean nothing he ain't playing against nobody 😂😂

lol hell nahhhhhh, last in the league next season

Lmao you think castle will be there for 10-15 years? Wtf u smoking. No one stays a franchise player anymore. Everyones switching teams In today's NBA no matter how good or bad you are

Dude this is the first video of urs I've seen. Ur a great nba commentator - knowledgeable and insightful. But I think you could benefit from tighter scripting. A little rambly and aimless Subscribed anyway, great work
