Really?

[Leetonidas]

POWER SHIFT

[BatManu20]

Prob for a future 2nd Round pick

[MoSpur02]

So Shams deleted the tweet, but I’m assuming the details are being worked out

[Leetonidas]

Not seeing this on his twitter

[Rocalcio]

Shams deleted his tweet.

[Chinook]

Gotta wonder if just not keeping Trey and using that money for something else would've ended up being a better play.

[Leetonidas]

Oh it's a three way between NOLA/DAL/SA

[timvp]

Three team deal between Mavs, Pelicans and Spurs, apparently.

[cd98]

Prob for a future 2nd Round pick

Probably conditional 2nd pick that will expire without ever coming to fruition.

[slick'81]

Finally an asset :rollin

[DesignatedT]

Mavs get Reddick

[MoSpur02]

He just tweeted out that no third team involved so I’m assuming Lyles hasn’t been traded.

[Rocalcio]

Spurs aren't involved anymore

[Chinook]

Probably LMA to NOP, Lyles and Redick (and I guess other filler and sweeteners) to DAL and KP to the Spurs.

[mo7888]

MOST and Nola... no 3rd team

[DesignatedT]

Lol

[Mugen]

:lmao they probably got shut out when Brian Wrong jumped onto the zoom call

[MoSpur02]

Oh well. That was weird.

[gospursgojas]

Spurs get Dirk’s 2006 game 7 WCSF game-worn shoes.

[Leetonidas]

Boo

That would be my guess, tbh.

[gospursgojas]

Pop pulled plug at last min Bc he wants Lyles to start tonight. Luka is being sent to Austin for layup lines.

[John B]

Wait there’s hope?? :wow

[Chillen]

Pop is to busy watching our moronic president Joe Biden having his cute little scripted press conference to make any deals.

[timvp]

Wes Iwundu involved, I'm told.

Think trade is actually happening :wow

[Joseph Kony]

Typical Spurs :lmao dont do jack shit, then maybe make a trade that doesnt even matter only to have it negged at the last second :lmao :lmao

[cd98]

Wes Iwundu involved, I'm told.

A 6'6 small forward. Sounds about right.

[timvp]

Maybe this is it.

[timvp]

Trade call still ongoing. Sounds like Spurs might have dropped out of the trade at the last second :lmao

[Mugen]

Pop probably pulled the plug when he realized it wan't Tre Jones they were sending out :lol

[mo7888]

So we got Chriss

[SpurPadre]

Or it's just Pop trolling us:

[RC_Drunkford]

lol that trade didn't happen :lmao

[cd98]

Why would be trade Lyles for guys that have multiple years on their contracts and are bench warmers? Better to just let Lyles expire and have the cap space and the roster spots.

[Seventyniner]

Chriss? Eww.

[Gibbz]

Marquese Chriss. League? Fucked :lobt2:

[BillMc]

So did this happen or not?

[slick'81]

The desperation

[cd98]

Marquese Chriss. League? Fucked :lobt2:

Too bad he's out for the season with a broken leg. I guess he won't take Luka's minutes, though.

[BillMc]

Yes, he will. :pop: Wouldb't be fair to his other leg.

almost right on the money. Just take the Spurs and Trey Lyles out of it

Yeah, so apparently it was almost Melli and Iwundu to the Spurs with Lyles to the Mavs ... but the Spurs pulled out. Probably realized Iwundu's minimum contract next season was guaranteed :shootme

How do the Spurs stay under the tax while taking back Chriss’ salary and not moving out Lyles? Is Aldridge giving up enough in his buyout as part of it?

[ginobilized]

Should make for an even more miserable rest of the season for Lyles.

The Spurs know who they are and stick to their typology very consistently. That's something.

He damn well better. After all the bending over the spurs did for him.

I haven't looked at the specifics but I'm pretty sure the Spurs have enough room under the luxury tax to waive Criss even if Aldridge doesn't give any money back. Criss is on a minimum contract and the season is more than half over ... so, yeah, the Spurs should have enough room already.

[BillMc]

Wonder if Lyles will be a problem now that he was almost traded. Or will Spurs buy him out too?

[gospursgojas]

Lyles seems like an aloof guy prob won’t gaf.

[slick'81]

Is he gone yet?
