First, Matthew Tynan and Trevor Zickgraf dive into the recently released ESPN top-100 player rankings ahead of the NBA season. Four Spurs made the list, and we'll bet you can guess who they are.

Then, after the break, the guys take a look at the win totals out of Vegas and attempt to nail down a high-end trajectory for San Antonio.

Second, Matthew Tynan and Trevor Zickgraf field a slew of questions from the community. What is Brian Wright's roster theory? Will lineups featuring a bunch of ball-handling guards work? Did Chris Paul's influence effectively rub off on the young roster during his brief time in San Antonio?

Then, after the break, more normal conversation.

Is the De'Aaron Fox contract fair? Is Jeremy Sochan next, or should the Spurs wait on that extension? All that and more on the latest episode of SMB.
