Re: San Antonio Spurs PreSeason Press Conference
Will update later today!
Long term we see him more as a shooting guard offensively. His handles have already improved this offseason, but he has a lot of work ahead of him to become a CSL caliber offensive point guard.
Defensively, he is set up to be elite at both positions. He has the size to guard two guards but has the defense and swiping ability to keep up with elite PGs already
This year we plan on playing him solely at PG based upon our current roster make up, but long term we expect him to play more two guard

Re: San Antonio Spurs PreSeason Press Conference
The sky is the limit for Bertan this year. We see him complimenting both Hamilton and Okafor very nicely offensively. If Bertans can stay on the court defensively, 18 -20 PPG is well within reach.

I heard that Denzel threatened to retire if traded to the Nets, but I warned you about Hezonja - hes a hard individual to be around. Even Ayton refused to practice in TC so that he wouldn't be around him anymore. I wouldn't be surprised if thats the reason that Free Agents we're turning down 10s of millions of dollars...

Re: San Antonio Spurs PreSeason Press Conference
I like Okafor’s pickup. Him, Hamilton and Frank are a nice trio.
That said, isn’t it time to move Harris and capitalize on future assets for him?

Re: San Antonio Spurs PreSeason Press Conference
After a big season last year where expectations weren't all that high, what do you do now to put yourself among the top Western Conference teams?

Re: San Antonio Spurs PreSeason Press Conference
We are bringing back the majority of core with the exception of Waitors and Harkless, but our starting five should remain roughly the same. A lot of our success next year will lie on Davis Bertans and whether or not he can become an elite scorer in the new engine. If he can, than I think we will have 2 elite scorers in Bertans and Terry, the top defensive backcourt in the league with Terry and FrankyN, and an efficient Front court who can do all the dirty work too in Mo and Harrell. Excited to add Adams, another elite defender and Capela who can add more offense from the paint... Super excited about the new season but like every other team, there are a lot of unknowns with the new engine
