Nobody could write articles about the Spurs taking someone other than Victor.  So they did it with Scoot.  He was always going to be #2.

 

I heard Brian Windhorst suggest that San Antonio is trying to get into position to take Coulibaly.

So, if the Pistons were to deal #5 to Utah for #9 & #16, is there anything that makes any sense to move #9 to San Antonio?  They have #33 & #44, but those would only be additions rather than principals.  Does it make sense to move #9 for San Antonio's (unprotected) 1st next season?

Not really.  Next years draft is supposed to be weaker and you figure with two lottery picks SA will improve a bit.  I would rather have this years pick.  

Another option.  SA is owed 7 future first round picks from other teams.  Maybe one or two of those would be appealing.  Except Detroit really needs the help now.

I'm ignorant on basketball knowledge compared to most here in the forum. But everything I read online about Gradey D. and everything I watch highlight wise makes me feel like he's Luke Kennard 2.0. Am I wrong in thinking this? How his Gradey different that Luke? As a reviewer on SB Nation put it he doesn't seem to have elite athleticism, a quick first step, length, great ball-handling skills , be an elite passer, or have the ability to draw fouls. He seems like a very talented spot shooter, who doesn't create his own shots, offering little else. How is that not Kennard 2.0?

Yep.

So I'd rather draft Ben Sheppard than Gradey D.
