Who's getting Wemby - The San Antonio Spurs win the 2023 lottery

[John Price]

HE'S OGING TO SAN ANTONIO

 

[Marc the Habs Fan]

4th: Rockets
3rd: Blazers
2nd: Hornets
1st: Spurs! I called it!

 

[Breakers]

Wow

Good for Pap

 

[GKJ]

Spurs definitely know when to be bad at the right time.

Pop lives forever.

 

[Terry Yake]

spurs would be my bet

well well well

pop's never retiring

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Pop's going to be winning championships into his 90s.

 

[Power Man]

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS

 

[These Are The Days]

I wish I could say I'm surprised. Some franchises are just blessed

 

[John Price]

"I want to win a ring asap"

he not f***ing around lol

 

[HisIceness]

So who should Charlotte draft?

 

[BobColesNasalCavity]

Good spot for Wemby. Hoping he hooks up with one of those Big Ol’ Women in San Antonio and she feeds him good. Guy is a freak.

 

[Vamos Rafa]

Define "we"?

And the way I define your “we” is when referring to Lauri Markkanen

Spurs fans always lucky to get their savior immediately

 

[Blitzkrug]

Gregg Popovich in his home right now presumably;



Would honestly rather seem Wemby go to Pop then a shithole like Houston or the Hornets. Neither team understands how to build a winner. Or Portland for that matter.

 

[Power Man]

Man I really thought we would get 5 at best

oooof

 

[Blackhawkswincup]

A team that went 17-65 falls to 5.

Is this really the right system? Seems like you should not fall 4 spots when you are that bad.

Pretty absurd system to be honest

 

[Reality Check]

I'll put it to you this way...RealGM had San Antonio as the overwhelming favorite prior to the lottery

No one is surprised that franchise just happens to win the lottery yet again. Lame but whatever.

Could be worse for Detroit. They could be Houston. Who won the coin flip with San Antonio to pick #2 prior to tonight.

 

[John Price]

Pretty absurd system to be honest

people want it used for football, then a 7-10 team gets the #1 pick and caleb williams

To be fair, Detroit would have been better had they had Cunningham at all last year.

Still bad and probably still in the top 3. But I like our future better than say Houston.

Victor has been sentenced to 5 seasons at the U of Alaska. In the post-Kawhi draft era Pops has been one of the worst GMs in NBA history. This is bad for Victor and the NBA.

Unfortunately, tanking is all too prevalent in the NBA. Thus, they are trying to limit the benefit of being terrible.

Spurs definitely know when to be bad at the right time.

Pop lives forever.

David Robinson, Tim Duncan, and now Web.... Always landing a big...

NBA can't be thrilled. Not the ideal market. I'm sure they were hoping for Houston, given the odds.

I don’t think they care, without LA or NY involved. Everyone else is a ‘big market’ when they need to be one.

Nba can’t really complain given the elite 8 in the PO were LAL, GS, AZ,Den, Bos, phi, ny and Mia. 7/8 are like top 10 markets.

 

[Svencouver]

I sold away any chance of the Canucks winning the lottery or a title for the experience I've gotten as a Spurs fan in my lifetime

 

[karhukissa]

Europe taking over NBA, after LeBron all the big poster boys are from Europe

 

[John Price]

Mbappe is only 5'10 too and look short af lol
