we had a good run tbh
the spurs will be very mediocre for a long time. we dont have a franchise player nor is there a good way to acquire one without completing sucking for several years
1. Trade Kiwi for best package of young stars + picks
2. Trade LMA for lottery pick if possible, and unload at least one terrible Fatty/Gosol contract if you can in deal
3. Using extra capspace to sign Parker to one last loyalty deal since Spur won't be competing anyways

Get Luka
LMA is a franchise player, just not a top 5 guy and that's the standard we expect. I assume LMA and the Spurs Mutually agree to go or stay.
LMA will stay if the Spurs can get some good pieces around him. It’s enough to semi-contend, and he gets to be “the guy” and get his touches and accolades.
only reasons this happens is to keep Poop appeased by not forcing him to coach a rebuilding bottom-dweller for his remaining two seasons. Best move is to trade him now when he still has value, which he won't in two years. if PATFO retains him just to 1st round exit the next two seasons for that reason, which would set the rebuild back an additional 3-4 seasons, they should be forced to retire this offseason
It's going to take forever to field a good team again. Look at Utah. They couldn't even keep Gordon Hayward.
But... get picks, young players. Lay low. This era is borked by Durant, anyway. Maybe something in the future will happen, but just cast out for now.

This. We can be a good team if we get some shooters and PnR players. Keep green and Kyle now if we can. Also try and keep Rudy
You just know they'll hang on to Fatty, Gasol, and Porker anyway.
Hayward was trash. The hard part of a small market team is learning when to go all in on a star, or let them bail. It appears Utah got the right call, but it's a hard decision to make
the lakers package is awful value. id rather talk to philly or boston.
Spurs HAVE to trade LA for the highest pick possible. They'll be stuck in a spot no team wants to be at if they don't. End of the lottery or nearly outside of it.
Poop won't let them. He doesn't want two bottom feeder teams to cap off his coaching career. I am more than sure this franchise will screw over and delay the rebuild by half a decade just to appease him for two more mediocre seasons
Count me in on the Doncic bandwagon. I'm not sure if he is good enough to be a franchise player but Manu should be the perfect mentor for him.
Suns package could be appealing for anything with the pick + Booker. Philly could be a good spot, Simmons package for Kawhi. Frees up Simmons who is more ball dominate, add Lebron, have Embiid, Kawhi, Lebron, Fultz. Draft is already on Thursday so this will probably go down in the next week.
I think you're being way too optimistic, my guy
The Spurs will be lucky to get a good package, at this point, definitely not expecting a great one..
If Kawhi is going, Spurs should be selling everyone over 25.
I don't think you've ever had a bad post bro tbh
Plenty of teams who would give up alot for him tbh, everyone is chasing the Warriors. Its at least good they know this now a week before the draft if they get picks in return.
Luka Doncic
Michael Porter Jr.
Marvin Bagley III
Jaylen Brown
Jayson Tatum
Brandon Ingram
We'll probably end up with one of these guys. Obviously not one of them is on Kawhi's level, but who do you take?
