2022 San Antonio Spurs Offseason Thread -- We're Young, Scrappy, and Hungry

I wonder if Gen Z is capable of producing players capable of buying into Pop's philosophy. So far I've seen no evidence of it.

Are you serious? Pop won a title with a Stephen Jackson on the roster.

That was before Tiktok

At least tickets will be cheap this year. Might dust off my agoraphobia and head to a couple of depressing games.

You're probably right. It's a generational thing underlined by TikTok. Has nothing to do with actually having basketball players worth a shit on the team.

I guess what I'm trying to say is that SJax (Gen X or Millennial don't make a shit) liked attention, was emotional, was easily riled, and probably difficult to manage. If he'd had 1M+ followers and got constant dopamine hits from going viral? I don't think he'd be as "easy" to coach as he was.

Difficult personalities are nothing new. What is new is how normalized attention-whoring has become and how many outlets there are for getting your fix. Any player with talent has grown up within it. You might have one or two kids that could buy into the culture Pop and Tim built, but even if you're lucky enough to draft them, that's not a squad.

Somehow this bit of major news managed to escape this and the broader NBA thread.

Holy shit we are going to be bad this season. 

is weiskamp cant, then the spurs will vamp.

 

said no one.

 

GSG!

Manu, you magnificent person, I miss you.

Damn, I was out of town this weekend and didn't even notice this was his weekend to get inducted. What a huge moment for him, the Spurs, and San Antonio. 

My favorite memory of him might be the new, old Manu when he had a resurgence in time for the last championship. IIRC he kinda struggled with injuries early in the 2010s a bit, then came back after and took on more of a "crafty" YMCA guy since he lacked a lot of the athleticism he had a decade prior. That might have been my favorite version. Even though old-school Dunking Manu was a good one.

I love the sentiment although we all know where TD has been...... Jokic was equally as complimentary.

 

We should have no problem obtaining the worst record in the league. No problem at all.

slightly off topic but drawing on the spurs super fans encyclopedic knowledge base: anyone know the spurs player that had a bullet wound in his shoulder and was a very weird looking dude? maybe early 90s.

I think you are asking about Lloyd Daniels.

As alluded to, it was Lloyd Swee' Pea Daniels. I'm pretty sure he still had the bullet inside of him. IIRC they had another player at the time who had also been shot but the bullet had exited. They called them "leaded" and "unleaded."

That video would be a lot cooler if we weren't about to embark on the Wemby death march, but I still enjoyed it.

Wemby Death March would have been a great thread title.

You can always change the season thread title.

Have you never edited a post before? The 3 dots open the menu that has the edit option.

He doesn't know how to use the three dots!

Got an email from the fan club yesterday about $20 opening night tickets (Manu's jersey being hung on the rafters!)...... I'm kinda excited for the season and to see how much Devin and Keldon develop, and Sochan actually starting... but the $20 ticket email is a rough reminder, we're gonna f'ing suck and they will be struggling to give away tickets. Don't care, got mine for Moody in the spring anyway.
