he's a great young shooting small forward, which the spurs do not have. He's an insanely good fit for them. They need wings

i'd do that shyt in a heartbeat
I don’t see the Pelicans giving up on Murphy especially because they have a young point guard they love in Fears.

Dumars seems adamant on that Queen, Fears and Murphy trio.

Not worried. Regular season game. Good game from Spurs, won't beat us in the playoffs.

Shai still shot 50%. He threw up some bad 3's that weren't needed though.
Dort and Dub were bad. Especially Dub with some of his iso's.

I agree with you. I think given time the Spurs are going to be nasty, I just think it’s not this year. It could be, but health, and experience got to kick in at the same time. The Spurs need to have a few series under their belts. It’s not their time yet, for a series. However these elimination games are different.
i said the same thing about the thunder last year. wemby looks unstoppable. the backcourt defends and can shoot. fox looks like he's on a mission. Castle harper and wemby young af they only gonna get better

playoffs for the next few years gonna be :ohlawd:

I wouldn't trade Murphy unless I got a crazy package. What's scary, is OKC could do just that.

If they called NO and offered Dort, Topic and that Clippers first, would the Pels turn that down? They could throw in Philly's first as well.

The way wemby plays he won't last long

He doesn't punish his match ups...Caruso is face guarding him in the post lmao

Low key his game is ugly he just runs around

He'll end up like embiid 7 foot James harden and a big what if

Dude train with kg he should be below 3 point line facing up

He started doing it towards the end but stop intentionally flopping

Harper and castle are dogs

The power of friendship is the only thing stopping the Thunder from that.. which could be a double edged sword. As constructed, they’re very much the ‘16 GSW in that they have a higher floor compared to the field… but come playoffs certain teams can raise their ceiling to comparable levels.

i.e. Defensive effort can be toggled on for the playoffs and corner 3 shot making can fluctuate no matter if you’re Jabari, Vassel, Dort, Cam Johnson, or IND’s role players last year.

So if you have a chance to upgrade for a taller, more dynamic guy that ticks those same 3&D boxes, without giving up you’re core 4-5 guys, it’d be a no brainer. However they likely wouldn’t touch that close knit group
