    It's truly depressing. Look at the Western Conference and find me one team that you would not swap rosters with? Maybe Minnesota? Towns and Russell are still better than anything the Spurs have as building blocks. I hate Portland's cap and future contracts, but Lillard alone puts them light years ahead of the Spurs. Everybody else either has established stars or promising young talent.

    As painful as it is to admit, every single team in this conference is better positioned to compete for a championship either now or in the future than the Spurs are. This franchise has a major dearth of talent that barring a miracle in the draft, isn't going away anytime soon. Prepare yourself for multiple 20ish win seasons... they are coming.

    Looking back, other than the time between when Ice got traded to the Bulls and when David Robinson finished his service requirement (1985-1989) and the post Kawhi years (2018-present), this team has always had a franchise player. And during that first walk through the desert, they at least had the promise of David coming in to save the franchise for two years. There was at least hope. Now? The Spurs have no cornerstone. They have no franchise player. Until they get one, they are going to be horrible to watch. Winter is coming. It's going to get worse before it gets better.

    It’s the bill many of us assumed was due, for all the years of success. Kawhi was our miracle. Was. I just wish that the rebuild had started as soon as he went bitch-mode. There would be light at the end of that tunnel, but it’s darker than a black steer’s tookus on a moonless prairie night.

    They have much bigger problems than eating this contract or whatever hit the cap takes from China. They still are going to have plenty of future space as long as they don't do anything stupid with DeRozan this off season. 

    Oh, they’re going to do something stupid alright. The excuses have already started.

    2. “He’s a great teammate and has gotten over himself.”
