SAN ANTONIO SPURS LIVE REACTION DRAFTING VICTOR WEMBANYAMA AT THE AT&T CENTER

[@TROLLINGB4U]

"The pick is in" 🤣 That pick was in months before the spurs even had rights to it.

[@Viz-u2s]

They literally gave the Spurs the number one draft pick and the fans boo'd the last Finals MVP...

[@joseabreu-nn5cu]

Spur fans SUCK. They win a ring n still treat Kawhi like trash. Hope u guys NEVER win a ring for the next few decades 🤧

[@Binnieishere]

@@Viz-u2s I mean wouldn't you want to boo a player that doesn't want to play for your team and tried to do everything to get traded?

[@Jcproductions505]

⁠@@Binnieishereit depends I’m a blazer fan and dame wanted to be traded but we did not boo him when he come and played against the blazers so I depends who is is is what I’m trying to say. But idk why they booed Kawhi because dame all so asked for a trade and we did not boo him and he did not win us a championship or finals mvp so the spurs are just a bad fan base.

[@Binnieishere]

@@Jcproductions505 Dame gave it all he had and loved the city and that franchise. The Blazers confirmed they were in rebuilding mode after they decided to tank late that season and Dame didn't want to be in rebuilding mode in this phase of his career so he decided it's time to move on even if he didn't want to leave the city. Fans understand that more than a player giving up because he doesn't want to live in San Antonio. Kawhi wanted Los Angeles and Los Angeles only so his FAMILY did everything to get him out of there because they didn't want to be there as well. I mean Parker left his final year but didn't get booed, right? There's a difference between respecting the city and then just giving up on it.

[@homerthompson416]

For the longest time my favorite draft moment has been watching the 2001 draft knowing how much the Spurs wanted Tony Parker but fearing the Celtics would take him with one of their three first rounders since they were rumored to be high on Tony too. So I cheered when the Celtics took Joe Johnson. Then got excited when the Celtics took Kedrick Brown next instead of Tony. Then I was getting down that the Spurs hadn't been able to trade up to the middle of the first round and probably wouldn't get him. But then jumped up and cheered when the Celtics spent their last pick on Joseph Forte and after that, pick by pick just hoping teams would stupidly think the French kid was too soft or too small or not ready. And then couldn't believe my luck as a Spurs fan when he was still there at 28 knowing exactly who the Spurs were taking. And it was such a great moment seeing Tony come out from the stands at the draft to get his Spurs hat from David Stern. Two weeks later he was tearing up the summer league so hard the Sonics offered Hall of Famer Gary Payton to the Spurs to try to pry Parker from them but of course the Spurs told them no way. Anyways, that was an incredible draft to be a Spurs fan. But Wemby so excited to be coming to San Antonio, crying tears of joy and telling Monica McNutt "I'm a damn Spur!" in the interview just after the selection may be an even more exciting a moment for us Spurs fans. So much credit to Tony for laying the foundation for the Spurs to become big in France. I expected big things from Tony when the Spurs drafted him but never expected that he'd not only become a Hall of Famer, but also make the Spurs the team great French players want to come to.

[@Ebriel0000000]

With a little luck, Spurs will have Risacher or Sarr in the next draft :-) Sarr would be a good "Twin Tower" to pair with Wemby, as Risacher is a very good outside shooter and a Ginobili kind of swiss army knife : with a good PG, he would be the third part of a new "Big Three" built around Victor.

I'm from France, and I'm a Spurs fan since the middle of 90's! I'm proud that the first french player to win an NBA title was a Spurs (Tony Parker 2003), I'm proud that the first french player to win a MVP of the finals was a Spurs (Tony Parker 2007), and of course I'm proud that the first french player to be 1st pick of the draft is a Spurs!

[@addytrolla2535]

That must have been a couple of amazing moments for you. Are you hoping Spurs get Sarr or Risacher in a few months??

[@addytrolla2535]

I've been a Spurs fan since the 90's too. The Admiral was always my guy through the Jordan years. I'm really hoping we get the Raptors pick at 7 or 8. There are some great international players in this draft.

[@yunopepper76]

@@Sasports_210 that would be funny tho

[@Ebriel0000000]

Scoot will be a very good player : no doubt about it. Wemby, if he is not injured too much, will be far above that. Maybe it will take more time for him to reach his top because Scoot is more physically achieved, but he will do the job to gain muscles and become an absolute monster.
