@SlothKnowsBall@EmmanuelAcho@KDTrey5 What makes it worse, Sloth, is that Acho's 17 snaps were special teams snaps. He didn't even get on the field on defense to face AP...
Theoritically, he knows about as much as us when it comes to taking on Peterson in the open field💀
Stephon Castle admits he actively avoided other teams in the 2024 NBA Draft so he could team up with Victor Wembanyama in San Antonio
“I was just looking on the defensive side of things (in San Antonio), where being able to pair with Victor was definitely a plus in my eyes.I just thought it would have been a perfect fit, and I feel like it was.”
“I think being (in San Antonio) was always number one on my list. Internally, I always felt like I was the best player in that draft. (But) I didn’t know what could happen. My agent always told me, like, anything can happen in a draft. Like, you could not work out for a team, not have talked to a team, and they can still take you. So, I mean, I wasn’t really planning on playing in Houston. I didn’t really know how any of that worked. I was kind of hoping I could slide my way to San Antonio. It kind of worked out for me.”

NBA commissioner Adam Silver said on a recent Competition Committee call, according to sources: "We should have a system where you should hate to lose. It shouldn't be a badge of honor. Losing should be uncomfortable."
The new change is not as drastic as relegation to a lower league -- but a penalty for being at the bottom.
Many league executives understand this may be an overcorrection, but one the majority believes is necessary.
