Fox Watch 2025

[Tizzy Flip]

the one year he shot well from the perimeter on volume was the Beam Team year and he was rightfully an all-star and CPoY thanks to it opening up the rest of his game. The next couple of years, we sorta kept blaming his injuries for his slumping shooting numbers but maybe he just sucks at shooting.

Forgot about that, his shooting that year was by far his best 3pt shooting year since his 2nd season. He was a bad shooter in college too so safe to say it’s just not a skill he has and likely never will. Just like Westbrook was never a good shooter

It’s beautiful seeing them realize in real time who De’Aaron Fox is.

In fairness, most of the Fox discourse migrated to the [Game] thread for the evening but, yeah... hot takes were flying on Friday, not so much last night.

I would expect that just like his tenure here he is going to have "wow how is he not first team All-NBA?" nights followed by "wow, he makes what? when does that contract come up?" nights.

This is his 9th year in the league, pretty sure he's a finished product and will always be that guy.

De'Aaron Fox is who he is. Nobody should be particularly surprised when he goes off for 30. Or 50. The guy has that in him. What he doesn't have is the superstar's mentality that allows him to compete at the fullness of his powers game in and game out. The Spurs are absolutely going to benefit from Fox's thermonuclear performances. And when Fox is in one of his patented mid-season slumps? Well... they've got Wemby. That's the difference between Fox in a Kings jersey and Fox in a Spurs jersey. He's a #2 that we all wished had been a #1. In San Antonio, he doesn't have to be the latter. He can just be the former.

I am a hundred percent good with him being the former, but there remains some speculation as to whether or not he is.

I'll allow for that possibility, but if that's the case, then it was a stunning miscalculation on Fox's part to demand a trade to the San Antonio Spurs, specifically. It's Wemby's World, and every other Spur is just living in it.

What Fox is going to have to realize, to steal from a podcast I listened to last week, is that he transferred from Malibu Prep to Bel Air Academy. And they only run one offense at Bel Air Academy...
