CP3 is there to spread his knowledge of the game not only on the court but also off the court to the young Wemby.

[@lhamarurbina9549]

And also to help them identify and help develop their point guard of the future.

Spurs will be amazing with CP3. It's not just Wemby that will benefit, it's the whole team as they find their natural roles in the system. Defenses will be looking for Wemby and then CP3 will shoot from his spot or find someone else open. If CP stays healthy, I'm with Windhorse...no ceiling.

[@blablablaa14]

Wemby was going to be okay anyhow. He's a generational talent with the GOAT coach, he's learning fast. Its Sochan/Castle that they really brought CP3 for because those two are still so raw and not ready, but the potential is sky high

I dont think people understand how DANGEROUS the SPURS ARE NOW. CP3 is probably THE BEST PICK AND ROLL PG ive seen. As a die hard SPURS FAN he upset the Spurs so much since his New Orleans days w Tyson Chandler then lob city with Griffin and Jordan. BUT the Spurs 5 CHAMPIONSHIPS revolves around the PICK AND ROLL offense w Parker and Duncan. They literally just brought back the ORIGINAL SPURS TYPE PLAY W these 2 players only.... 😮😮😮
