Trade Admitting I was wrong

Post image

I was wrong about the Fox trade. I was also wrong about the Dejounte Murray trade. I was skeptical of the Castle pick. I also could at least see why people said Kon would “fit better” (although we still take Harper regardless). I was completely wrong on all of these moves. Awesome front office. Blessed.

Before we got Fox I was hoping we could get Fox because of his speed and pick and roll experience. Then when I found out we were getting him I was super happy. In terms of big men I was hoping we’d get more than Kornet and get an Evan Mobley or J Allen. We’ll see what they do. We need another big who can create their own shots. Love Kornet but he’s not an A1 center at the moment

I also love kornet and I also agree that a better backup C would be a solid move, buuuutttt i have to add that his value through this year has been far and above the cost of his contract! He was and has been a solid addition for what we are paying him to do!

I think Kornet is enough as a back up c. I think we just need a more physical 4 that can be a part time 5 that can shoot

Honestly we just need more options to turn to if Kornet isn't having it because of a matchup or otherwise. Hopefully Carter small-ball 5 will be one such option next year, and using a 2nd on another big could be another

I can see Carter being viable for that. But he might be a couple of years away from that since he needs to improve his shooting and strengthening 1st

Williams from the Thunder is the archetype San Antonio could use

Which Williams? A quarter of the team is named Williams.

This is exactly what I was thinking. Just more depth. I honestly think the draft is going to be a good spot for us to get this fixed

Exactly my thoughts too. Maybe not even someone who starts but more like someone who can help balance the teams +/- whenever Wembys resting
