NBA Trade Deadline 2020

[sasaint]

I like that. Focus on continuity, when you're a sub-.500 team. Now that is really out of the box thinking. :lol

My lone hope out of this year's fiasco is that ownership will finally see the need to move on from the Old Asshole. The NBA ain't poker; Pop can't stand pat hoping nobody is aware that his hole card is an unmatched deuce of clubs

[Duncan87]

Trade where ??

[Duncan87]

Trolling?? Source

[Joseph Kony]

That Wiggins trade was just weird. I don't get it for GS. Wiggins sucks ass and has 0 bbiq and plays 0 defense and gets paid 30+ million for like 3 years :lmao Russell is definitely a better player. Warriors could have gotten a much better return in the offseason for their #1 pick + D-Lo. No idea why they jumped the gun for a worse player making more money

[ZeusWillJudge]

More to do with the knicks being dumb than anything else. We can hope marcus turns into a locker room cancer and destroy team chemistry.


The Knicks just hired Leon Rose as president (head of basketball operations). Rose is a long time player agent. He knows the business of the game better than most, and he has a LOT of good contacts in the player community. Probably the best thing they've done in a generation. If they give him the elbow room he needs, they just got a lot smarter.

BTW - the Knicks were talking about Morris being a possible mid-season trade chip when they pulled him away from the Spurs.

The owners have as much balls as Brian Wright. Lord Commander Pop is infallible and the Holt children are building his golden statue as we speak.

[FkLA]

Wrong. Treadmill team is a team that is .500 or worse and far from certain a playoff team. MEM was winning 46-50+ games and made WCF and Semis 2x.

Yeah for Sa that’s unacceptable but when you don’t have a Duncan? Not bad at all.

MEM shouldn’t have been quick to move on. But they made the call when the time was right. Will SAa?

I mean, the team won 48 last year and should've beat DEN with better rotations. Nephew was still on the roster prior to that.

If the Spurs prolong this a couple more years I can see the criticism. But to say that they're holding on for too long is premature right now. Then to compare them to teams that held on even longer, and prop those front offices up as geniuses? That's just inaccurate, imo.

This team, with all it's flaws, is still just as much of a contender as those grit and grind teams if Pop would just stop being such a faggot with his rotations.

[Mugen]

Comparing Bertans value now vs what it would have been had he stayed with the Spurs is completely unfair....

Pop would have absolutely neutered Bertans so much this season that he'd be barely worth a 2nd rounder... that's what happens when you would be playing for the worst coach in the league by far :lol

[FkLA]

1225489218270613505

Two 1st my god.

Perfectly highlights just how big of a problem Pop's favoritism is.

Underutilized and undervalued just because he was never one of the pets. Too worried about who's a wonderful human being and who lifts the most weights when the only thing that should matter is who's best at making a difference on the court.

[NASpurs]

TPE

There's a reason why I used the word "essentially". We essentially got a dick up the ass.

[ZeusWillJudge]

GSW stealing the one year tank a thon and gathering assets like ZeusWillJudge (https://www.spurstalk.com/forums/member.php?u=54031) suggested the Spurs do for a quick turn around a couple of years back.

I don't like to say "I told you so", but some of the things I got bashed about are starting to dawn on people as the sad truth.

Okay, who am I kidding? I do like to say "I told you so". :lol



Two 1st my god.

On the other hand, if the Wiz get a first for Bertans, I'm going to have to eat some serious crow. But if they somehow manage to get two first rounders for him, I'm actually going to have to go buy some extra crows to eat.

[FkLA]

What gives you ANY hope that will happen?!

I have zero hope. Brent is untouchable.

[Mugen]

Really respect the teams trying to get better during the deadline.

Pop/RC usually just sit on their asses and wait for whatever washed up vet shows up on the buyout market. Probably cost Manu and Timmy another title or two :lol

Oh, yeah it will. I just made a pretty bold statement that they wouldn't get a first out of Bertans, and I'm going to get my ass kicked over it happens.

At least I'll stand and take my ass-kicking like a god, unlike these puny mortals who try to weasel out and rationalize. :lol





lol sorry but no way Bertans brings in 2 firsts.


I know that. Sometimes you have to laugh at yourself a little bit. I didn't think he would bring one first, but the way he played it could happen.

No way Morris can handle a mute autist. Can’t wait for this cancer to eat through that team.

Trying to compare what the warriors are doing to the spurs is silly.

They are coming off an incredible 5 year run and have 2 injured superstars who are top 20 in the league. They know they will be back next year. Most people also expected from the outset of the Russell signing that the warriors would use him as a trade piece at some point.

Wouldn't surprise me if the other teams don't even have our new GM's phone number.

They'd of been better served just holding onto Drummond and trying to S&T him in the offseason.

So you're saying a team that didn't need to build for the future just did?

Wow. You're right. You can't compare these two teams. One is actually picking a lane while the other is doing absolutely nothing.

[ZeusWillJudge]

What the fuck does Pop have against Carroll? He didn't even travel on the RRT. He's basically off the team.

I thought for sure they were going to find another home for him. They're just going to pay him to stay home and design his fall clothing lineup?

he's out for the season and is getting up there in age. not saying i wouldnt trade Gay and Beli for him but idk if he's a good fit given his age/contract/injury history. rather the spurs just wait til 2021 until they have tons of cap

No, probably just going to waive him and let him go wherever.

Spurs fans need to calm down. The organization are giving others a chance. Wouldn't be fair to win championship after championship year after year. Gee guys.

He hasn't been with the team because they're trying to trade him. Maybe nobody wanted him? Maybe they offered peanuts? Who knows but I think this is the one guy that we can definitively say the Spurs aggressively shopped.

So, maybe we should have held onto him... I'd rather be the Grizz than the Spurs at this point.

I thought the same thing when I saw Nene's name come up in a trade.

Knight is making like $15M this year, and if his name came up in a trivia question, I would have gotten it wrong.

[TimDunkem]

He hasn't been with the team because they're trying to trade him. Maybe nobody wanted him? Maybe they offered peanuts? Who knows but I think this is the one guy that we can definitively say the Spurs aggressively shopped.

[Duncan87]

Zero championship Grizz ok your right

[FkLA]

The warriors were already better than everyone else. They still look to improve and never rest. Spurs did and do.

Spurs tried and struck out plenty of times when they were still elite. Bay Area is a much more attractive FA destination than San Antonio.

[HarlemHeat37]

Maybe Detroit should have waited, but it's not surprising that Drummond has zero value around the league, he's as much of an on-court cancer as any starter you'll see in the NBA.

Clippers should easily run through the West, especially against the Lakers, wouldn't be surprised if they swept them.

Carroll also happens to be the fifth-highest paid player on the team, btw. Or I should say, the fifth-highest paid player OFF the team. The more that's known about it, the worse it looks.

Clippers are clearly the team to beat tbh. They've been coasting hard all season because they know home court won't matter with the Lakers (Lakers would still have HCA in any series against them).

They match up very well with the Lakers and Kawhi shuts down Giannis no problem.

Kawhi is such a POS scumbag but man that dude knows how to make moves

[Chinook]

It's not a real NTC. He was a one-year Bird. Same reason why LAL couldn't get Morris without trading Green. KCP vetoed any trade involving him. Pretty sure no one in the league has a legit NTC right now.

There has to have been a real fallout between Pop and Carroll for a vet to be this completely alienated from the team without “sitting out the season and rehabbing in NY a la Kawhi” or refusing to play for a small market with a young team like snob Iguodala.

[Mugen]

Yup - you absolutely can't blame him at all for wanting to leave.

In two years, he's possibly going to have two championships with historically bad franchises while the Spurs are a first round exit + lottery team that is about to hand the keys to the franchise over to Bryn Forbes.

Kawhi with amazing foresight to see where this franchise was heading.....to be a fly on the wall on that meeting where Pop told him/Dennis "Bryn is your 1B" :lol

That's what I was saying earlier. This has how you treat a guy who's done something really bad, when you're just fed up with him. He was in the doghouse when the season started.

[Mugen]

Very happy to see this FO and Pop exposed for the frauds they are after that lucky ass George Hill trade.

Nobody should be blaming Demarre for anything. He saw Bryn and Beli get mins ahead of him, I'd act up too with that garbage coach.

[TimDunkem]

That's just fact. And the Clippers are living proof of what a difference it makes having someone shrewd running point on personnel decisions.

Conservativism works when you're loaded with HOF'ers.

When you're starting one of the worst guards in the league, your drafting has been hit or miss, you have two fake stars, your bench has Gay/Belli playing major roles, have no real starting caliber 4, and just lost a player in Bertans to sign two guys - one who doesn't play and one who went to another team - then...not so much.

Amazing job by Doc, Lawrence Frank, and Jerry West. Absolutely amazing job in the last few years.

[Budkin]

No idea how they don't make a single trade but then again the are starting Bryn Forbes so what else should I have expected.

This season is like a nightmare we can't wake up from. Pop is literally not all there.

Drummond to Pistons

I thought they just moved him to Cleveland...

[Mugen]

Yup. Will be especially funny when we finish 12th in the west after they kept the team intact to make a playoff push lol

And the usual Sniffers will of course bail out Pop/FO for a garbage season :lol

Don't forget about Memphis either

[loveforthegame]

Clippers are crazy scary. That backcourt of Williams and Thomas is a train wreck in defense though.

[Prime BEEF]

Could’ve traded gay/Carroll/Marco for Drummond. Cleveland got him for nothing. If you really were making a playoff push that would’ve been a move to make

[MannyIsGod]

Bruh the years and years of no activity paint a wildly different picture. I’m not saying Sa was always awful. But GS has been light years ahead in terms of asset management for a while now

Most of it has been through free agency and having the largest cap increase ever for Durant. They're good, but they're also INSANELY lucky.

[poopbox]

Spurs in season trades are usually overblown but this was a year that they really did need to do something at the deadline...like get rid of players who have no future...

And of course these morons did nothing...

So now we get a season and a half for lma and he leaves for nothing...

Either a half or one and a half seasons of derozan and he leaves for nothing...

Poeltl might leave for nothing...

And in the end you would have traded kawhi leonard for keldon johnson...

Even the knicks are rolling over at this level of stupidity...

[Mugen]

This season is like a nightmare we can't wake up from. Pop is literally not all there.

Yup. It's a fact that the Sniffers really try to avoid (notice how timvp doesn't even interact anymore besides posting the Grades)...

Pop has literally some form of mental degradation and everybody around the franchise/organization is too afraid to say anything. He needs help and needs to be forced out before any more damage can be done to the future of the team.

[San Antonio Slayer]

I guess it's the third ring and finals mvp for the nephew and he is the best small forward ever))))

I’m just waiting for the summer to see what level of incompetence we’ll witness. Should be more exciting than these soulless games.

[HarlemHeat37]

The only negative for the Clippers is if they give minutes to Thomas, he shouldn't be in the NBA at this point. He's only in the league out of pity due to his injury.

[TimDunkem]

Well the deadline has passed. The one good thing that's come out of all this is that pretty much everyone has now joined the dark side. We didn't even have to wait for the Ides of March for the knives to finally come out. Pop's reign of error most end.

On the other hand, if the Wiz get a first for Bertans, I'm going to have to eat some serious crow. But if they somehow manage to get two first rounders for him, I'm actually going to have to go buy some extra crows to eat.

[MannyIsGod]

So were the Spurs. What have they done since the big 3/Kawhi left?

The Spurs front office is starting Bryn Forbes. Does anyone really think that they can be defended?

Clippers, Warriors, Hawks, OKC, Grizzlies showing the league how it’s done.

Riddle me this? Can the Spurs lose enough of their fan base to make ownership initiate some changes?

no shit

[DPG21920]

What a horrific year. Summer still the goal but to make no changes is both wrong and demoralizing

[HarlemHeat37]

Milwaukee and Houston are the only teams that can beat the Clippers. I'd favor the Bucks in a series, but Houston would need to hit their 3s and for Westbrook to get hot for an entire series, which is unlikely.

[EasyMoney]

I'm a bit behind on the news. Did Galo make it to the Heat or not?


Nope. He wants 3 years but Riley wants 2 years. Two sides couldn't agree so talks have stalled. Likely won't happen unless a side backs down.

[MannyIsGod]

Pop is still the GOAT in my eyes. Two absolute decades of dominance. But fuck if I don't hope he's done after this year. And for fucks sake, now that we can't possibly affect Marco's trade value, I don't want to see him off the bench unless he's running back to the locker room for something Lonnie forgot.

They're never going to be able to have that advantage in free agency that GS has. San Fransisco >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> San Antonio if you're rich.

[HarlemHeat37]

This is Pop's farewell tour, he can go out however he wants, tbh. If this is the roster he wants to ride with, then that's his right. It'll probably set the franchise back like Kobe and the Lakers, but he deserves it.

The most successful franchise in sports(along with the Patriots) over the past 20 years, it was always going to end ugly or it wouldn't end at all, that's how these things work.

I tend to agree with this. I don't begrudge him the opportunity to go out on his own terms, I just don't understand why these are his terms. He can be better than that he currently is. I wouldn't have minded a trade that made them better for this year.

But in the end, you're right. This is the price for the past two decades and its worth it.

Luck has a ton to do with it. You think Steve Kerr was the one who decided to make the cap go up all at once and give them a once in a lifetime shot at Durant? That was luck. Pure and simple. I'm cool with giving them credit for doing the smart thing and for actually getting him, but if you don't think that was 95% good fortune I don't know what to tell you.

I didn't mean this year specifically, I meant this stretch, which will probably last for 2 years or so.

These things generally don't end well, unfortunately. The Celtics needed like 20 years to recover after their historic run. The Lakers needed like 9 years to get back after Magic(and that's LA, they always have a geographical advantage) and it's been 10 years since they won a title post-Phil Jackson.

Pop is the father of this franchise, he took care of us forever, brought us titles, he was a great provider. Now he has Alzheimer's and we have to tolerate these next few years until he dies(retires from basketball).

[ace3g]

Usually if Spurs didn't make a trade - while frustrated, they could look at the buyout market. Again they had winning record and had luxury to stick with continuity. Spurs can't wait till March for possible buyout options this year.

I'm not even making a Buyout market thread like I usually do - I'm in full tank mode -- Again never thought I would be saying that with the roster we had.

Pop’s going to try for a new playoff streak once the current one ends this year.

[ZeusWillJudge]

What a horrific year. Summer still the goal but to make no changes is both wrong and demoralizing

Agreed. Demoralizing.


It is demoralizing. This is it. This is as good as it gets for the rest of the year.

And we all know they aren't going to let Forbes walk this summer - Pop is going to overpay him, and DeRozan will either get a max deal, or he will walk for nothing. The Spurs probably won't offer Poeltl a penny more than his QO, and he'll go somewhere for $6M like Baynesie did. Aldridge will be here next year and then leave for Portland for nothing. The future looks bright.

But, hey, there's still a chance that Beli will sign a min contract here and we'll have continuity.

[MannyIsGod]

Waive Forbes, move Walker into the starting lineup, and sign Jamal Crawford to come off the bench

Spurs should buyout Bryn Forbes. Its the right thing to do to let him pursue a starting gig on a playoff team. A talent of Forbes level has no place wasting away on a lottery team.

Are there still people here defending him, though? I don't think there's anybody left that thinks he's a net positive at this point:lol

Maybe non-Spurs fans, I suppose, but I honestly never see anybody on Twitter ever talking about the Spurs either way. They're just an irrelevant team now, unfortunately. Not bad enough to be a joke, but not good enough to matter. The worst kind, the team you don't even notice.

Yeah I don't believe for one second Pop is going to end his coaching career not making the playoffs. He is going to be around at least long enough to give Forbes an extension and then let either Lonnie or White walk because well we just paid Bryn Forbes and there is only so much money to go around...

Oh and Patty is due another loyalty contract after next year...got to be sure to stick around to give him that and hug him and tell him how much he meant for these every increasing first round exits...

[RC_Drunkford]

:lol @ people here thinking Pop will retire. He will extend Forbes and DeRozan and the big offseason aquisition will be 36 year old Paul Millsap for the MLE.

There's more truth to that than most people have considered - yet.

If they had done a 1-year tank, gotten rid of some dead wood contracts, and built for the future it would have shown that they had a vision. Now it just looks like they failed. Miserably failed. And there is no visible plan for the future. And that, more than the San Antonio night life, is something FA's aren't going to want to go to. But the two things together is a hell of a big hurdle.

Some of you said that even a 1-year tank would fuck up the future. And I kept telling you that dwindling into insignificance would hurt the future more than anything else. This thing they have done is the worst of all possible worlds, and I'm really afraid that they have dug a hole that they won't get out of for a long time, if ever. The only way they're going to fix this any time soon is if they get really, really lucky... again.

I, as someone who has been beaten to the punch by you on those threads, agree. I do think they'll buy out Beli and maybe Carroll, but if they do, they'll replace those guys with prospects or bring up Eubanks. Actually, waiving Beli and letting Keldon stay with the big club would be all right.

[UZER]

Are the spurs getting black balled or just refusing to play ball?

Despite the front they all put up, nobody but Bud really likes Pop.

[cool cat]

Are the spurs getting black balled or just refusing to play ball?

They forgot to put new batteries in their pagers.

[ZeusWillJudge]

Nothing is changing until Pop leaves....PERIOD.


Maybe we could send some testicles to the Hold kids so they would fire him? I'll donate one. But mine grow back, so I can see why some of the rest of you wouldn't want to volunteer.

TANKS alot !

[sasaint]

A blunt would help

Do you live in SA?

[BWS-1994]

Pels and Hawks still trying to get some wins. Hopefully, Spurs get a higher pick as a result.

[RC_Drunkford]

My 12 year old nephew with his experience in 2K would a better GM than Pop has been the past 3 years.

13th baaaby

[slick'81]

Do you live in SA?


But of course! You buying

[Prime BEEF]

Are the spurs getting black balled or just refusing to play ball?
Honestly they are just f’ing stupid. They are so retarded that they don’t understand that they are stupid and that what they are doing is the opposite of what they should do.

i think it’s a Seinfeld episode where one of the guys does the opposite of what he thinks he should do and everything in his life improves. That’s the spurs. If they did the exact opposite of what they want to do, we’d be title contenders

[Excessive Egotist]

So Brian Wright was "credited" for the Leonard trade, oversaw the Bertans/Morris situation, and just laid an egg at trade deadline. If reporting on Leonard trade is reliable, we know the Lakers offer (Ingram, Ball, pick) was better and would have retained Green, the Philly deal (Covington, Saric, and a pick) was arguably better insofar as Covington appears to have more trade value than DeRozan, and the Kings were rumored to offer the #1 pick, which could have been Doncic....

In short, do we have any reason to believe Wright is good at his job? What the hell is going on in the Spurs' front office?

Plus, has anyone else noticed that the Express News is a PR arm for the front office these days? Finger, Orsborn, and McDonald toe the company line...

[gambit1990]

They forgot to put new batteries in their pagers.
:lol

Everyone here will tell you he isnt doing shit,tbh. Its still and always will be pops team

[Excessive Egotist]

If we wanted to, we could probably achieve 10 or 9, which at least improves the odds of a lottery miracle by a little bit.

[gambit1990]

i can imagine demar opting in this summer... and the 2021 trade deadline coming and going without the spurs doing anything :lol

[RC_Drunkford]

I'm out fellas. As long as Flopovich runs this franchise shit will only get worse

[UZER]

They forgot to put new batteries in their pagers.

Weren’t the Spurs almost done in by a bad midnight fax years ago? :lol

[gambit1990]

i'm glad the thunder kept the band together. wish they had tried to improve though.

is there a mod around that can change my team to thunder?

[ZeusWillJudge]

And this is a PERFECT example of why free agents don’t want to come here. SA is not a destination place as it is, then you throw in Pop pulling this shit smh. Demarre is getting screwed.

Morris wanted no part of Pop and backed out the first chance he got. :lol


You know it's bad when players who are already here don't want to put on a Spurs jersey to enter a game.
