He's another defensive/non-shooting 4 like Vando.

 

I’d waive Maxi in a heartbeat. DK is still on the books for another year.

 

no. the spurs tried pretty hard to make him useful. popovich even spent the better part of a year trying to turn him into a pg. he's had way more opportunities than bufkin during a similar period of time.

that said, i thought about him as a buy-low project this summer. but as sk said, we already have vando. you can't have two vandos. you can barely have one (and i'm a vando fan).

 

We could have two Vandos..if we had a coach that knew what he was doing. That's the guy that Vando had his little post game face mush with tho, I wonder what that was about?



On another note, I'm really surprised that Stewart only got suspended for 7 games, for leaving the bench and throwing punches, he's an officially stamped bad boy now. Lol...after LT made all that fuss, about how Lebron smacked this good kid, and should have paid his fine! FOH ...Isiah is a certified goon. We could use him too tho!

 

TBH..I think JJ would have given Cam some run if he was still here. The league is changing a bit, we could use a couple of long 6'7- 6'9 guys that can get out there, and get a little handsy, and physical on the perimeter, that can get under guys skin. You hope they could hit a shot or two, along the way to go with the rough stuff. I think Luka and Austin are going to need a couple, of Bully type perimeter mates after Lebron, Smart is a bit too small, but he's potentially a good guy, for the grooming of these type of guys. Thiero has some potential in this regard, and I'll go against the grain here as usual, and say that I'd trade Rui for Dort, he's a bit short like Marcus, but he's still in his physical prime.

 

Candace Parker nominated for this year’s HOF inductees ….. Yay / Bravo!!

Doc Rivers …..

 

It's about time to start thinking about draft prospects. Abeer, Pioneer, Toklat, Elgin, LT...anyone...thoughts?

Chris Cenac Jr might be on the board for our pick.

Vucevic scored 19 points and 5 from 6 on 3 points shots and 11 rebounds
Cam Thomas- 34 , yes both absolutely useless players

 

Honestly no clue

The guy from Kansas and BYU are really.good pretty obviously

I refuse to be a fan of the traitor Boozers son

 

He's better than Vando, imo. While similar in shooting ability, Sochan is excellent at finishing around the basket. And he's still 22, there might be room to develop the shooting.

 

Yeah I don't really start paying attention to the college kids anymore , until around this time of the year. Cenac is a local prospect, a young big that has some potential IMO.

 

This is a rare case of me not agreeing with you. Hard to say the Spurs tried hard to make him useful when they didn't really play him at his natural position. He never played the PG spot before the NBA, which is BTW the most difficult spot to play at. How many young players would succeed in such a situation?

IMO, he's more talented offensively than Vando and seems to be a hard working guy with some upside. I still believe in him and would love to have him on this team. I may be wrong, but I would be surprised if he doesn't have a long career in the NBA as a very solid role player.

 

I see many similarities between the Spurs-Sochan and the Warriors-Kuminga managements.
The main difference, obviously, is that, as of February 12, 2026, it's still unclear what Sochan's role in the NBA is: given that he's not a PG at all and is undersized for a C, his complete lack of shooting range makes it extremely difficult to place him in another position.

Cam Thomas with an offensive volume that wouldn't have been seen here even through binoculars.
Okay, he scored 34, but he essentially stopped the ball whenever and wherever he wanted, monopolizing the Bucks' offense: it's literally what he did when he was with the Nets and objectively something that's within his capabilities, but it's also a style of play that won't get him anywhere other than being a ball-hog for a mid-to-low-ranked NBA team.

 

Vucevic!! We missed on that one.

 

I don't like the character and the team even less, but I admit that Kawhi, as an MVP in 2026, is a pleasant surprise: as a basketball fan, seeing him play like this can only bring me pleasure.

Of course, I hope the Clippers don't even make the play-in
