Interesting.

I guess Klay would be groomed to replace Manu.

Smokescreen, they really want Jimmer Fredette!

They want Thompson or Jonas Valanciunas.

where the fvck is James Anderson?

If he's a SG, why would the Spurs want another at their most stacked position (Manu, Hill, Neal, Anderson) with nobody at SF except the good-for-nothing RJ? Spurs need an athletic PF (to replace Dice).

Thought they drafted James Anderson to be Ginobili's replacement last year. Anderson is no punk (though I am biased - Arkansas connection).

definitely a smokescreen. CIA pop never reveals his cards before its time to call...

idk, i do think SA has someone specific in mind. heard a rumor that they're trying to trade george hill for a #10-12 pick somewhere. i was actually thinking it was between thompson and jonas. draft day could be interesting.

Hill is a PG and would become their starting PG.
