The 2019 NBA Draft is still 6 whole weeks away, making now as good a time as any to unleash some takes on what the Spurs will do, allow for other predictions to settle atop, and then reheat on the morning of June 21st if the ones below happen to hit. Such are the opportunities offered by another uncharacteristically long summer in San Antonio.
And of course these predictions will hit, as I went to great lengths — arguably more than for last year’s LeBron James Theorem — to develop a formula that’s equal parts pseudoscience and arbitrary valuation, then brewed in a spreadsheet that weighed player fit, team drafting tendencies, roster need and other trends to pin down who PATFO will target with their three 2019 draft picks.
