2025-26 NBA Season

Wembanyama is simply an amazing talent who is still developing and already ruling the court. Just be prepared to see him continue developing into an even better player. He's working on it tirelessly, both mentally and physically. Game one vs. the Thunder is just an early example of his progress. He'll only get better and stronger in the years ahead. The Spurs are a sound team heading for great things.

Long as Wemby remains healthy the Spurs should be a top-tier team for awhile.

So true. He's aware of that fact, no doubt. I'm hoping he builds more bulk and muscle to that end.

The luck didn't just include the draft number, but also the selections. Wemba was the main piece of course and Harper was pretty much a no brainer for them at 2
Castle pick was probably the Spurs best overall pick out of the three. He wasn't a 100% shoe-in at his selection with 3-4 other teams that passed on him

One could also make the case that the Spurs could've selected Kon Knueppel over Harper

Harper was s consensus 2nd overall pick. He’s superior to Knurppel.

Interesting not sure if this was the right time to do it. It’s officially the Ujiri era….

I kind of saw this coming. Wonder who they are going to replace him with

When you’re given unlimited Basketball operations power you’re not going to want to spend another season with someone else’s coach . I assume if Kidd gets another HC job it comes off the 50 million owed .

Well…Thunder….officially on notice. Spurs are not afraid of them and if Wemby is gonna play 45 minutes they are fried. They are running Chet with 4 small guards….

W/ whom we match up very well.

Any team with this kind of luck would have arrived. 3 top 5 picks with 1 1st and a 2nd over the past 3 seasons.



Victor Wembanyama— 2023 1st overall pick. Stephon Castle — 2024 4th overall pick. Dylan Harper — 2025 2nd overall pick

Unless it's the Clippers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[kskboys]

I mean to be fair….Cavs had….

1st overall
4th overall
1st overall
1st overall

And stunk lol.


Still gotta make the right picks. Wemby was a no brainer as was Harper. Castle was a great find.

Yup. I said the Clips, but great example!!!!

Spurs and OKC have shown the blue print for creating a successful team. I think the rest of the league has taken notice.
Also, the Mavs have a completely new FO and I can see Masai turning the organization back into a contender

Yup. Tank like crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Gotta lose lose lose and trade away good players if you want to reach championship level.

Same here. I'm sure you guys have noticed how many times he hits the deck. He needs added bulk and muscle or those hard falls will take away from his greatness.
I haven't had this much fun watching this young and talented Spurs team since my Warriors made their run.
The Rise of Wemby marches on.

I think his best bet is to stay off the ground. Embid and AD are two guys who are bulked and stay hitting the ground. Giannis does too but doesn’t get hurt. Maybe it’s genetics….

I can see the new FO cleaning house and fully building around Cooper. We could see Pj, Gafford and along with Kyrie all traded.

Only issue is they don’t control their own picks. Seems trying to win now would be the move. I guess unless you can get first rounders for those guys.
