He is the definition of a winning player. Plays with such intensity even when his shots doesn’t fall he impacts the game by assisting and playing suffocating defense.

Fox has been mostly passive all year. But he has had some great 4th quarter performances.

n1nj4k1d21 | SAS

when the team is struggling to score in the 4th, that’s when he comes alive. not sure if it’s by design, or maybe he just chases the high of 4th quarter heroics. not saying it is bad, and also not complaining as long as we win lol

Clarkey7163 | Spurs

Personally I think Fox has been asked to back seat and pace himself for finals.

There’s been glimpses where we’ve needed to put points on and comeback and he and Wemby start duoing basically and we cook. But its my theory we’re hiding a lot back for Playoffs

There was a game last week where Fox and Wemby ran 3 pick and rolls in a row, scored every time, and then just stopped running it.

Electricpoopsoup | Spurs

From what he has said he is just happy filling in whatever role we need that night. If other guys are hot he feeds them if everyone is cold he’ll drop like 14 points in the 4th quarter.

He is letting the Castle and Harper cook and develop. And when they struggle he take the game in his hand to unlock the situation.

I’m expecting him to play more aggressive in the playoffs, because there has been a few plays with him and Wemby that just looks ungardable.

gregatronn | Spurs

I was surprised to see Fox so passive.

That’s the move which coaches want to prioritize what Harper and Castle are doing. I would say it’s mostly been a success but since Fox has never been off ball this much I think there are days when he is too passive. It’s a balance, but at the end of the day it’ll be harder to gameplan for Spurs if they barely know how the offense runs through Fox.

We know the counters teams will pull on Harper and Castle when playoffs come. Will they answer? in their first playoffs, probably not enough as one would normally predict.

I just hate how the Spurs got this guy a year after getting Wemby. With that said, Castle looks to have legitimate superstar potential. The Spurs are gonna be a problem for a long time especially if Harper lives up to his potential.

I know it’s a small sample size. but it seems that castle really improved his three point shooting in the last couple of months. castle’s playmaking as second year guard is incredible. castle fits so perfectly on this spur roster.

He has stopped taking them. Today he shot 3s few feet behind the line because he didn’t want to dribble lol. I think he even made one of them.

raivetica20 | Spurs

I actually think he shoots better when he’s a couple feet behind the line lol

No-Meringue5867 | Spurs

I think its because they are catch and shoot. Before he would dribble to get closer but now he’s just shooting every time he’s open.

Alarmed_Bowler_8352

Currently I’d say only Ausar is better on the ball than Castle. When wemby was out castle’s tenacity (which even allows him to play full court press all 48 minutes) on defense kind of made him the team’s soul on that end.

Not sure who else is as good defensively on the perimeter. Dunn and Dort are both really dirty and prone to getting frustrated and making mistakes, (the thunder also have other elite perimeter defenders on the team, pretty much every guard on the team is good defensivey outside of Joe) Amen regressed this year, as has Daniels… Barnes has been amazing as well but not sure if he’s better on or off ball.

In a good world castle will be all defensive first team but that spot will go to Wemby so really hoping he makes second team.

ItsMeHera | Hawks

Daniels hasn’t really regressed defensively tbh. Guys just have learned their lesson and don’t try him as much, leading to less steals. Same sorts idea as Wemby as a rim deterrent on some possessions.

Overall, though, I always find the beefing fanbases do over 1st/2nd/3rd teams so dumb. “Oh, you think my guy is only the SECOND best perimeter defender in the league?! 😡”

Same thing applies to MVP tbh. People need to get over their favorite player being slightly below a fan of a different team’s favorite player if they’re similar caliber.

Basically Thunder fans thinking SGA > Joker and Nuggets fans thinking Joker > SGA

I think debating it is fine and fun, but wayyy too often it ends with people getting upset someone thinks your guy is actually just the 2nd or 3rd best player in the league and not the absolute best feels really silly to me, personally.

astanton1862 | Spurs

Only thing I take issue with is the 48 minutes. I doubt he’d be able to keep his effort up that long and he doesn’t have to by design. With 3 star level guards they just have to run full burn for 32 minutes a game. It is one of the big reasons for the Spurs dominance.

Alarmed_Bowler_8352

1 | 8 hours ago

The hope is that Wemby’s fit to go for the playoffs every season. As a spurs fan, I’m not that much fussed if Wemby misses a few regular season games. If he’s healthy during the playoffs, the triumvirate of Castle, Johnson and Wemby (with Fox as a strong offensive gun as well) should be too much for most teams.

And it did seem that Castles mins went a lot up when Wemby was out. I guess they noted his value in cases of Wemby not being able to anchor the team.

T-wolves trade?

Sorry I’m a casual. Am I reading this right? The Bulls traded their lottery pick & 2 players for a likely bottom 4 pick and two players that have already been cut from the team? Do I have that correct?

Stephon Castle neutralizes the Bulls with another elite performance on both ends of the floor: 21 PTS, 8 REB, 10 AST, 1 STL, +27
