It's not even funny, who wants to attack that kind of defense ? Wolves vs Spurs are going to be funny as hell to watch, defensivly !

[@gabrielcarrasco9078]

Sochan typically guarded the best player on other teams with success. So yeah I can see it being a big issue for teams. The plus is that unlike Minnesota, our C and PF aren't sitting ducks against an offense like the Mavs.

The Spurs fixed the jumpers and 3 ball of Murray and White to become very capable shooters. Stephon was praised in college for having a real solid work ethic. This kid is about to become Kawhi 2.0 or maybe a Holiday/Butler. Go Spurs Go!

[@patrickramos878]

He's perhaps low-key the best player in the draft this year.

[@TheGorillaGuerrilla]

His college tape is him being a defensive menace and connective piece. His high school tape is him being a point guard offensive juggernaut.

[@andresmacias4229]

I would love for Castle to work with Jrue Holiday in the offseason to help him unlock his defensive potential. Holiday is the All-around point guard that would fit on any team

[@ChanBoogie310]

Defense is my favorite part of sports and I like my versatile players. My spurs picked the perfect player and then him being a PG is plus for us.

[@idothisforfun1300]

He controls the tempo when he plays and is an all around solid player. With cp3 as a mentor he can become a star

[@MattGreenleaf21]

Everyone complaining about Castles numbers in college, but don’t look at the fact that he shared the door with 4 NBA drafted guys. Kinda hard to dominate when everyone is looking to score

[@keely-lornekirby7370]

This might be the only comments section i’ve seen that doesn’t have the “oh finally someone who will pass wemby the ball”…. Or “and they think this is gonna make them competitive?”….. this offseason has been one of our best in recent memory, in terms of needs and fulfilling them. We swapped out our 8th pick for a couple 1st round picks drafts that are projected to be stronger draft classes. Got a solid gaurd at the 4th pick, vassel and jones aswell. All three people who will benefit immensely from cp3s presence. Plus it allows wemby to play with a high IQ PnR initiator that can get him looks and help him find his spots early in games. Wemby is gonna find himself saying “wow, how’d he see that gap” alot in the early parts of the season.

[@MrBubblecake]

Definitely an SGA type player, probably not as good of a shooter, but just as good at driving the rim and possibly even a better defender If he can shoot the 3 above 40% he’ll be an all star eventually

Great video. As a Spurs fan i always enjoy your Spurs analysis.

[@CharlesChacon]

I think he had the second most potential coming into this draft behind Sarr, but based on the situations they were drafted to, Castle will be the best player from this draft. He is a pretty complete package and super mature

[@Sami-zf5vb]

I don't know if he is that good, but I for sure know he is one of the luckiest guy in the nba, imagine being the point guard of wembanyama during your career, (you will probably easely make the hall of fame, at least way more easely than others), than imagine also being mentored by cp3 as a rookie.

This team will not win the ring next year but for basketball lovers it will be so much fun to watch it. Crazy basketball IQ with Pop, Tim, Manu, CP3 and many young players with work ethic and starving for knowledge. Go Spurs Go !!

[@Alienwatchgospursgo]

Yes, 43-47 wins with a 6th or 7th seed in the playoffs. Their defense will become stifling in the post season due to Castle education during the season and the up-tick in intensity. Having CP as a mentor shows why Pop is the GOAT, barring major injuries this team can be better TDs era. Castle can grow into a top ten player, once his offense catches up with his defense. They will make to the 2nd round taking whatever team they play to 6 or 7 games. Anything more than that puts them ahead of schedule and the league is in trouble. Defense wins championships and barring injury they will become dynastic over the next 2 to 3 years finally capturing back-to-back Trophies which was eluded in Timmy's era. #GoSpursGo #2ndDynasty

But it won’t solve the problem on offensive end, if you are terrible at offence, this will just translate to lots of transitional defence, where Wemby’s advantage in rim protection is nullified

Wasn't a huge fan of drafting him as high as 4 since he seems a bit limited offensively... but I see the fit with him as a "Spursy player" and if any team can get the best out of him its definitely San Antonio.

Gotta disagree. Wemby's mindset, competitive spirit, and playstyle will come together to motivate him to stay healthy. He will safely go to the ground rather than stubbornly plant if planting might get him hurt. Only flukes will take him out and anybody can get hit with those.
