In only 26 minutes. Shouldve only played like 15. I like Castle but folks be overhyping him. I think the Spurs will look back at this game and wish they had played Harper a lot more.
The Rockets could have drafted Castle (or Mobley) if they wanted to, but Stone & the Owners Son didn't want to. Maybe we shouldn't have a 3rd generation oligarch nepo kid with no prior basketball experience with veto power (implicity or not) over draft moves? God knows how he gets his NBA perspective but my guess is being born a hereditary heir apparent & Ole Miss Frat house & no other experience not optimal training
Wemby and Spurs organization is a better choice. Spurs hadn't traded for Fox when they had drafted Castle..... But we can still draft Castle despite him not initially wanting to come here.
We could still get him if we were looking at tanking. The Spurs will probably look to dump him in the offseason.
It's like your current girlfriend/Wife finding out you had someone else as a first choice, but didn't go for it because that someone else gave the cold shoulder.
Awesome... he made 2 FT's while he was a team worst -11 in only 26 minutes. He was the Knicks comeback. It's said he's an "Ime type player" and that's true, no one does 4th quarter collapses like Ime.
Yeah...Castle doesnt move the needle as much for me as Harper... Thats the guy im upset the Spurs got.
Who cares what the player thinks? You draft him and you hold him hostage for 4+ years. This is 100% on Stone.
I just found out today that our head of scouting is the same guy who drafted Hasheem Thabeet over Harden
Like I said earlier - the man wanted to be the PG wherever he went and with FVV and Amen, we weren't ideal.
