love seeing castle becoming the best player out of his draft class. castle’s leap this season has been fantastic to watch .
Had a rockets flair tell me in the first round that castle wouldn’t have made much more of an impact than reed lol
That pick will haunt them
Castle is obviously the better player between him and Reed but my GOD, can you imagine the spacing in Houston with Castle / Alpi / Amen? The stuff of nightmares.
Ppl underestimate our development program. Castle did not have range last year and barely was able to hit mid range even half way through this season.
His shot developed mid season seemingly outa nowhere which can only mean that the staff working with him are doing their job.
Most teams do not have what we have, hence why their players stagnate (and then the fans just claim that the picks themselves were bad).
Give Amen to the Spurs and watch him develop a shot and confidence to actually shoot.
That “staff working with him” is NBA Champion and Spurs player development coach Rashard Lewis, who has been working with Steph, Dylan and Carter on their shooting the whole season.
Did not know this. That’s super cool.
I get why people say this. But Houston was still in no place to be drafting for need. They at the time, and still do now, needed a true young centerpiece. I get that. Some people thought it was going to be Thompson but as bad As that’s facing would be, they’d have so much more play making and space creation with Castle slashing and again he would be by far the best playmaker on that team. Everything else can be sorted out later.
Reed + Castle was lookin kinda nice in the Rising Stars game ngl
Maybe one day he’ll be the best player on the Spurs
Great FLOPPER.
Every team needs one.
Wemby doing this shit in 26 minutes are you kidding me
was shooting some bullshit too
just throwing up some absolute hopeless threes tonight lol
But he only plays less than 30 minutes! (Derogatory)
Area 51 dominating
Belt to motherfucking ass
Got a lot of fucking clowns and overreacters from game 1 being awfully fucking quiet rn lmao
People were really saying Wemby can’t be a playoff performer after the last game.
Note the Wolves didn’t even outsource the spurs in minutes Wemby played.
Wemby is a cheat code man
Cant believe he’s washed already. Only 2 blocks? Smh my head
