I know. I just have seen too much bellyaching about the blown pick thing I couldn't help myself.

Just bc you don't like something doesn't mean it's trolling
Good lord
Yes another blown pick
So the Spurs know this is happening and still pick up his option? You're not smart.
Where did I say that? I said the dude has done this before
Nowhere did I say the front office knew about it
You made that up
I said it's another blown pick which is undeniable

Well saying it's a blown pick implies that it was a bad pick. By all accounts it wasn't a bad pick. Primo is going to be a very good player if he works his stuff out. This situation is akin to a guy getting seriously injured and not panning out.
Once again it does not imply that the front office knew that
You made it up

It's only a "blown pick" if they did know about some history.
Reporting with @wojespn The San Antonio Spurs’ release of guard Josh Primo – the No. 12 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft --- stemmed from multiple alleged instances of Primo exposing himself to women. https://t.co/4qV7FzmkNI

This is the type of thing he might, I say "might," be able to recover from professionally.

This may be confirmation that the Spurs plan to hire Becky their next coach.
Although not trading him is baffling. Unless there are charges coming.
A team will for sure pick him up after this. A bit of an overreaction from the Spurs.
Relieved it is not worse to be honest. He should be let go, that is unacceptable. My prediction, they won't regret it.
Yeah, this is the unknown right now, I guess. If he's looking at a criminal prosecution, that will scare at least some teams off.Ag Natural said:LawHall88 said:Reporting with @wojespn The San Antonio Spurs’ release of guard Josh Primo – the No. 12 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft --- stemmed from multiple alleged instances of Primo exposing himself to women. https://t.co/4qV7FzmkNI

I get the Spurs had to make a decision because of their culture and emphasis on character. But he's a 19 year old kid. I am sure NBA players do much worse behind the scenes. Suspend him for a season with no pay and let him get help. This was a bit much IMO.

It's only a "blown pick" if they did know about some history.
A player that was considered a reach at #12 never plays meaningful minutes and is kicked off the team for going Tate Pittman
How is this not a blown pick?
Depends on the circumstances. If he was exposing himself to minors - which is not implied in the article, to be fair - then he's probably done. If it was a handful of incidents (maybe "handful" is a bad word choice) only involving adults where nobody suffered physical harm and maybe alcohol was involved, then he has a path back.Enzo The Baker said:

The weird thing is when you are a 19 year old millionaire basketball player, you would think it wouldn't be difficult to find women who would voluntarily and happily look at your junk, but maybe not.
I'm guessing if and when all that facts come out we'll see that it was more than just a couple random drunken mistakes, and it was enough of a problem that the Spurs felt they had to do what they did.
I could also understand the decision if it was a female employee of the Spurs.
Semantics. Obviously as it turned out the Spurs used a good pick on a player that won't help them. But, it wasn't because they poorly evaluated his talent, they just didn't discover that he had this, eh, "mental illness problem." I suppose you could fault them for not asking if he ever exposed himself.MookieBlaylock said:Ag Natural said:MookieBlaylock said:

Not a single person on this thread agrees with what you're saying. Maybe let it go / shut up?
Primo has Deshaun Watson to thank for getting waived. Not excusing it and hope it's not worse than it sounds, but two years ago this probably would have been glossed over.

Sources: A former Spurs female employee has alleged that guard Josh Primo exposed himself to her, and she has hired attorney Tony Buzbee.

Buzbee represented the women in the sexual misconduct lawsuits against NFL QB Deshaun Watson.

No one agreed with me on Lonnie Walker
How did that work out?
Explains a lot why SSE is being so quiet on it. NDA, lawyers are off and running.
Gonna be a tough one tonight.
Vassell - Out Knee soreness
Richardson- Out Lower back
Sochan - Out (Flu)

Pretty impressive!
Only 4 teams in NBA history to have more than 190 assists through the first six games of a season:
— Jordan Howenstine (@AirlessJordan) October 30, 2022
1987-88 Celtics - 201
1982-83 Lakers - 195
1990-91 Blazers - 194
2022-23 SPURS - 191
Guard Romeo Langford and forward Keita Bates-Diop will start tonight vs. Minnesota in place of Devin Vassell (knee) and Jeremy Sochan (illness).
— Tom Orsborn (@tom_orsborn) October 30, 2022
Josh Richardson had started the past three games in place of Vassell, but he's sidelined with a back injury.
Bet we also see alot of Blake Wesley and Malaki.
Spurs up 10 at half.

They held Minnesota to 47 points.
The Spurs don’t have Devin Vassell, Jeremy Sochan, Josh Richardson or Isaiah Roby, and Blake Wesley left in the second quarter with a knee injury.
— Matthew Tynan (@Matthew_Tynan) October 31, 2022
They’re up by 17 on the Timberwolves with 10:07 left in the third.
Anyone else's NBA TV feed switch to the Minnesota feed? Roku NBA app kinda sucks shht and locks up quite a bit and when I brought the game back up got the Minny feed.
This team somehow has something
Looking gassed here to start the 4th. The short-handed roster may catch up with us at the end.
Or not.LawHall88 said:

Long season, but the Spurs are not good at tanking yet.
Minnesota looks entirely disinterested in playing basketball. Spurs just waived a first-round pick, had five players out with injury/illness and played with a nine-man rotation for most of the game.
— Matthew Tynan (@Matthew_Tynan) October 31, 2022
Spurs start the season 5-2 for the first time since 2018-19.
— Jordan Howenstine (@AirlessJordan) October 31, 2022
Second-best start in San Antonio franchise history (6-1).
Spurs have never started a season 7-0.
This has been such a weird start to this NBA season.
Keldon Johnson tonight:
— StatMuse (@statmuse) October 31, 2022
25 PTS
6 REB
8 AST (career high)
5 3P
He’s averaging 24 points on 46/44/80% this season. pic.twitter.com/SihhnZHqri
Ridiculous numbers from Keldon so far this season. Especially his 3 point %, I thought it would take a step back without DJ to set him up.
