3 polarizing things the Spurs' offseason moves should tell fans

2. The plan for the Spurs future is now a hybrid

There have been warring factions within the fan base about the direction the Spurs should take during their rebuild. People can't even agree on how long the rebuild has been going on. I believe that the indication that the team was going into rebuild mode was the Dejounte Murray trade, but that's neither here nor there.

A large segment of fans believe San Antonio should take it slow and build through the draft completely, while others think that they should floor it like Vin Diesel racing for pink slips due to how advanced Victor Wembanyama is. What many didn't take into account was how the Spurs were accumulating assets and what it would allow them to do.

They selected very good players that fit around Victor Wembanyama in one way or another. They drafted Devin Vassell to space the floor, Jeremy Sochan to guard the guys that others can't, a backup point guard you can place your faith in to run things when the starters are out, and Stephon Castle, a big guard who can do just about anything.

But even teams that build through the draft add talent to help push them over the top. Golden State did it with Andre Iguodala, Shaun Livingston and Kevin Durant. Boston did it with Jrue Holiday, Derrick White and Kristaps Porzingis. The Spurs showed they are willing to add pieces to push their ceiling because they still have a treasure chest of assets to pivot whenever they need to, if necessary. The best part is that they can still develop their core guys while doing it.
