View Full Version : What PG would you bring in?

Derrick White is probably the best option right now along with Patty and let it all hang out with them although they won't have much depth. Who should the Spurs bring in at PG now?

Parker for 2nd rounder?
Free agent?
Overseas?
Other Trade?

I'd wait to see if the Clips have to cut someone. Johnson can get the team through the pre-season. But I guess if PATFO already think a guy is out there (but didn't bring that guy into camp for some reason), then they should make the move.

I'd rather they attempt to make a trade like the one I proposed here: https://www.spurstalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=275908&page=3

Failing that, sign someone young or unestablished for depth. Taylor, Evans, Wallace, Ulis, Weber, Harrison, Whitehead (free agent), all range from possible to likely to be waived. Frazier is slightly more established, but another candidate.

What I don't want, is some former starter or third guard, like Nelson, Chalmers, Brooks, Jack (if waived), Lawson or Sessions because we know the genius wouldn't be able to help himself.

Unless there is a deal that has long term benefit, I say go with PG by committee.
No matter who you bring in or trade for is not going to be a huge help as far as getting this team a higher seed. Trial by fire for white, Forbes and increased Walker time when he is back.

10-08-2018, 05:21 PM
George Hill or Jeff Teague wouldn't be bad - but their salaries at 19M are too much unless we could move Gasol.
Rozier wouldn't be bad either - although Celtics may want too much.
There is always Cojo, who has played with DeMar in Toronto.

They have some Ammo with that extra draft pick if they want to make a decent trade, but really Derrick White is an excellent option to play point right now and they can stay young. Part of the problem we always had when Parker got hurt was that it was like running a car with bad wheels.

Never can tell who will be waived here in the next few days. We picked up Avery Johnson a few times and while he wasn't a world beater, he was very serviceable and could run the offense and play some D.

Do not want to trade future picks for some available, stopgap PG who would only exacerbate the backcourt logjam next offseason. If you want to try to offset the loss of our young dynamic player(s), make a deal for a legit SF who will fill a true need now and in the future when the young guys (hopefully) return. Go PG by committee in a season that is shaping up to be pretty inauspicious anyway.

Isn't Paul George the only real pg in the league or are there others? I know Paul George was promising when he played for us (before we traded him for kawhi) but I think he makes too much now and with the loss of Murray i don't think that's the position most in need (and kind of redundant with derozan) I do agree spurs could use a third star or just the best talent, but I am a realist

Chinook

Much rather sign a vet in the Miller/Ford/Vaughn role. Beyond just needing a solid hand to fill in at times, they don't have any PG to mentor White and Walker anymore. They have four young guards. They don't need another prospect.

frankly, at least now, no one...because:

2)after training camps there will be some cuts and some interesting names could become available;
3)the names currently available aren't players worth more than the options we already have.

Of the four, the only one I would't take is the last one (Evans) simply because we already have two not that tall and no defense oriented guards...

Hopefully the talk of them supposedly not looking to do anything at the moment is because they're waiting for final cuts over the next 5 days to have their pick of the litter of inexperienced types.

They don't need a body to play, but they do need one for depth/emergency and it needs to be a true PG.

He just was the odd man out as I recall. We had so many PGs then: Tony, Gary, CJ, Patty. There just wasn't room enough to play all of them and I think Nando got bored and frustrated. He preferred to ask for a trade than wait it out.

Yeah, de Colo was a better player than he showed in the NBA, but he wasn't good enough to beat out Prime Parker, Good Manu or Green for minutes. He didn't seem to want to grind in the league, which is fine. He was a good gamble for the pick they used. Anyway, he's an RFA under Toronto now. They have RoFR on any deal he negotiates with another club. Even if he were willing and able to get out of his deal in Europe, it would be hard to see him joining the Spurs this season.

Are 2 way rookie contracts tradable? If so we should go after Keenan Evans. I watched a few Texas Tech games last year and he was a big reason they made it so far. Has a killer instinct and can shoot the ball and create for others. Not too short either at 6'3", was surprised he didn't get drafted but was picked up by golden state g league and then was picked up by the pistons on a 2 way contract.

They aren't looking for a defensive wing. They don't have a spot in the rotation for such a player. As far as the PG, most teams constantly scout other teams for potential additions. It's more common in the NBA, where the bottoms of rosters are more fluid, but the same is true in all leagues as far as I know. That means that RC should have a list of players who are possible cuts that he and Pop can discuss. You don't start looking at guys after you find you have a need. You look at them first and then act on that info if you need to.

Would not mind CoJo. He's in a contract year and provides some toughness that the current healthy guards lack. Can be off the team next season if not reupped which is fine considering the Spurs have spent recent draft picks on guards and if healthy Cujo wouldn't be needed. Wonder what a trade for him would look like. Bonus: not only knows Pops system but has played with Demar b4.

Agreed, much like how they would tackle free agency or the draft. That is why I asked when is the final cuts official so we/they could have better idea who is available.

And finding a defensive wing is less about having them for rotation purposes (doubt they would leapfrog Cunningham or Bertans) and more for roster construction/fit. They currently don't have a defensive minded wing and I see Pondexter as less than a fringe player.

How does this shit work do we get like a roster exemption

Only if another player goes down and misses 3 games (or a week). They still have a two - contract available and could - more like should - conceivably waive Quincy Pondexter.

I'm hoping the Trail Blazers waive either Gary Payton II or Wade Baldwin (less likely of the two) since either would be a solid third PG. Although, very inexperienced....

I wouldn't want the Spurs to trade for any expiring or quasi-expiring player like George Hill or Cory Joseph or Patrick Beverley even.

Without Murray any hope of a miracle title season is over. No sense burning assets to get guys that will either be gone or too expensive to be duplicative next year when Murray is back.

Even trading a second would be troublesome, because the Spurs could still get a decent pick in the second round.

These have been the most fucked up injuries I've ever seen. The three injuries are to players we all would love to see play instead of an injuried player.
Sucks it didn't happen to Mills, Forbes and Gasol.

Ok, let's see, at this rate, we're going to have 82 injuries during the season, with the average length of time for a player being out, of 6 wks. That works out to a total of, uh, 492 wks of total injury time.

I suggest we begin work on a strategic plan. Are there any small African countries for sale?

Popovich said the Spurs would monitor the free-agent pool to see if they might be able to add a veteran body to help bolster the position. The team will also investigate trade options to help them tread water until injured players return.

Even if they were to pick up somebody waived from another team or add a 2 way player I would feel more at ease.

Their only move was Huestis in that gleague deal. The man isn’t expecting to finish his rehab until late Dec. Spurs need to look at someone else now.

Only trading for spencer dinwidie makes sense, as he's versatile player who can play 2-3 positions and can be an upgrade even when all injures come back next year if we keep

If the Spurs get another injury maybe; otherwise another combo guard gunner just happy to be there like Andre Ingram would do for cheap insurance.

Forget about DeColo, he’s under contract with CSKA Moscow, playing the starting PG and a leading role.

The team desperatedly needs a true PG until White is back. This player must, at least, run the fast break, take the ball to the offense, call the plays and play some defense. Given the current circumstances, we can’t expect a great player. Spurs can’t barely trade players until December-January and there isn’t any available money to sign anything but a vet for the min or a questionable young project waived by his team.

Too o many people around here is showing no knowledge at all about Spurs basketball. Our team NEEDS a real PG; even a mediocre PG would be helpful for the next weeks.

Read an article from Air Alamo where they were quoting Sam Amico who reported that Patrick Beverley would be one of the players that the Clippers would move at Monday night's trade deadline. He just came off a knee injury himself. He's definitely a great defender and a decent scorer as well. The only thing that the article did not address was who would the Spurs use to pull off a trade with the Clippers? The article did mention something about the Spurs' 1st round pick from Toronto and their 2nd round pick. Having Beverly on this team would help with the defense issues as well as ad some scoring punch to the lineup. I'd be surprised if the Spurs were to do that but if they were to, at what cost? Or from the Clippers' perspective, what would they be willing to trade Beverly for? Would they just take picks? Looks like he's listed as a combo guard who is 30 years old, and his salary is 5.5 million from last season. Hmmm... sounds like a great dream, but the Spurs just might stand pat with what they have, but all we can do is dream... GSG!!!
