在 ESPN 蒂姆·邦唐 (Tim Bontemps) 进行的一项调查中，球探、教练和管理层人员都对马刺队的管理层和年轻球员表示赞赏。
每年，ESPN 的蒂姆·邦唐都会召集一群教练、球探和管理层人员，询问他们一些关于联盟最相关的问题。这项调查的范围并不大，但它提供了一个有趣的视角，让我们了解内部人士如何看待休赛期和各支球队的状态。
你应该查看 第一部分 和 第二部分，因为它们内容丰富且引人入胜，但以下是与马刺队相关的最有趣的答案。
每个人都认为文班将成为超级巨星
维克托·文班亚马 (Victor Wembanyama) 在一个出色的新秀赛季后就引起了联盟的注意，他场均得到 21 分、10 个篮板、4 次助攻和近 5 次盖帽或抢断，同时入选了最佳防守阵容一阵，并且是年度最佳防守球员的有力竞争者。如果马刺队取得更好的战绩，他可能会获得比他获得的 7 张年度最佳阵容选票更多的选票，但他在 NBA 的第一年里个人才华是不可否认的，他对球队的贡献也是显而易见的，即使是在一支缺乏经验和天赋来制造更多噪音的球队里。
在经历了年度最佳新秀的赛季之后，18 位参与调查的人士中有 12 位认为文班将在五年内成为联盟中最好的球员，这并不奇怪。其他获得选票的球员是谢伊·吉尔杰斯-亚历山大 (Shai Gilgeous-Alexander) (2 票)、卢卡·东契奇 (Luka Doncic) (2 票)、安东尼·爱德华兹 (Anthony Edwards) (1 票) 和尼古拉·约基奇 (Nikola Jokic) (1 票)。这是一个梦幻般的组合。预测未来是不可能的，但可以肯定地说，文班即使不是联盟公认的最佳球员，也会在未来几年成为 MVP 的候选人，内部人士对此表示赞同。
马刺队是德玛尔·德罗赞交易的大赢家
18 位参与者中有 5 位认为公牛队是休赛期表现最差的球队，仅次于掘金队，后者在没有找到替补的情况下放弃了肯塔维奥斯·卡德维尔-波普 (Kentavious Caldwell-Pope)。在没有得到任何选秀权的情况下失去亚历克斯·卡鲁索 (Alex Caruso) 肯定是芝加哥度过了一个糟糕的休赛期的原因之一，但有三个人认为休赛期最糟糕的操作是公牛队在德罗赞交易中的操作，另外三个人说是国王队在德罗赞交易中的操作。每个人都认为马刺队是这笔交易中唯一的赢家，因为他们获得了最有价值的部分：国王队 2031 年的首轮互换权。
马刺队的球迷们很难对几年内都无法使用的选秀权和选秀权互换感到兴奋，但他们打长线的方式似乎引起了内部人士的共鸣。而且这笔交易在短期内可能会产生积极的结果，因为哈里森·巴恩斯 (Harrison Barnes) 下赛季应该会在球场上有所帮助，并且可能会被交易以换取更多资产。至少从马刺队的角度来看，这笔交易没什么可抱怨的。
斯蒂芬·卡斯尔 (Stephon Castle) 可能不会立即闪耀，但前途光明
年度最佳新秀的竞争通常取决于角色。那些加入一支能够给他们上场时间和球权的球队的球员拥有显著的优势。扎克·埃迪 (Zach Edey) 获得了大部分选票，这并不奇怪，他可能会成为灰熊队的首发球员，而看起来已经为 NBA 做好准备并且应该在休斯顿获得上场时间的里德·谢泼德 (Reed Sheppard) 紧随这位大个子之后，成为最有可能获得年度最佳新秀的球员。只有一位参与者选择斯蒂芬·卡斯尔获得该奖项，这是可以理解的，因为马刺队引进了克里斯·保罗 (Chris Paul) 作为主要的控球手，并且拥有德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell) 作为他们的得分后卫。
然而，当被问及哪位新秀将在五年内成为这届球员中最好的球员时，卡斯尔获得了三票，仅次于谢泼德，后者获得了八位参与者的青睐。看到谢泼德高居榜首并不奇怪，尤其是考虑到他在夏季联赛中的出色表现和全面的比赛，但看到卡斯尔得到认可也很不错。邦唐引用了一位西部球探的话，他认为卡斯尔拥有“大个子的技术”，这一点在选秀前和夏季联赛中已经很明显了。很高兴看到不仅马刺队的球迷认为这位新秀前途光明。
再次强调，你应该查看调查的 两部分 内容，因为那里有很多有趣的东西。至于马刺队，他们在对方教练、球探和管理层人员眼中似乎做得很好，这让人感到欣慰。

NBA insiders are impressed with the Spurs’ offseason
In a survey conducted by ESPN’s Tim Bontemps, scouts, coaches and executives praised the Spurs’ front office and young players.
Every year, ESPN’s Tim Bontemps puts together a group of coaches, scouts and executives and asks them some of the most relevant questions about the league. The project is not huge in scope but it offers an interesting overview of how insiders see the offseason and the state of the franchises.
You should check both Part 1 and Part 2, as they are informative and entertaining, but here are the most interesting answers involving the Spurs.
Everyone thinks Wemby will be a superstar
Victor Wembanyama put the league on notice after an outstanding rookie season in which he averaged 21 points, 10 boards, four assists, and almost five stocks per game while making First Team All-Defense and being a serious contender for Defensive Player of the Year. He probably would have gotten more than the seven All-NBA votes he received if the Spurs had finished with a better record, but his individual brilliance in his first year in the NBA was undeniable and his impact at the team level palpable, even on a roster that lacked the experience and talent to make more noise.
It’s not a surprise that after that Rookie of the Year campaign, 12 out of the 18 participants in the survey think Wembanyama will be the league’s best player in five years. The other players receiving votes were Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (2), Luka Doncic (2), Anthony Edwards (1) and Nikola Jokic (1). That’s fantastic company to be in. It’s impossible to predict the future, but it feels weirdly safe to assume that Wembanyama will be, if not the consensus best player in the league, then among the MVP candidates in the upcoming years, and insiders agree.
The Spurs were the big winners of the DeMar DeRozan trade
Five of the 18 participants considered the Bulls had the worst offseason in the league, only topped by the Nuggets, who parted ways with Kentavious Caldwell-Pope without finding a replacement. Losing Alex Caruso without getting a pick back surely played a part in the perception that Chicago had a terrible offseason, but three people thought the worst move of the offseason was the Bulls’ part of the DeRozan trade and three others said it was the Kings’ side of the DeRozan trade. Everyone thinks the Spurs are the only winners from that transaction, as they landed the most valuable piece: the 2031 pick swap from the Kings.
It has been tough for the Spurs’ fan base to get excited about picks and pick swaps that can’t be used for several years, but the way they have been playing the long game seems to resonate with insiders. And the move might have positive results in the short term, as Harrison Barnes should help on the court next season and could be flipped for more assets. There’s not a lot to complain about the trade, at least from the Spurs’ perspective.
Stephon Castle might not shine immediately but has a bright future
The Rookie of the Year race often comes down to role. The players who land on a team that will give them minutes and touches have a significant advantage. It’s not surprising to see Zach Edey. who is likely going to start for the Grizzlies, get the majority of votes and Reed Sheppard, who seems NBA-ready and should get minutes in Houston, trailing the big man as the likely Rookie of the Year winners. Only one participant picked Stephon Castle to win the award, which is understandable, as the Spurs brought in Chris Paul to be the main ball handler and have Devin Vassell in place to be their scoring guard.
When asked which rookie would be the best player from this class in five years, however, Castle received three votes, trailing only Sheppard, who eight participants picked. It’s not surprising to see Sheppard top the list, especially considering his great Summer League performance and well-rounded game, but it’s good to see Castle get consideration. Bontemps quotes a West scout who thinks Castle has “big-time tools,” which has been apparent in the pre-draft process and Summer League. It’s good to see that not only Spurs fans think the rookie has a bright future ahead.
Once again, you should check out both parts of the survey, as there’s a lot of interesting stuff there. As for the Spurs, it seems they are doing well in the eyes of opposing coaches, scouts and executives, which is reassuring.
