I don’t know...Manu4Tres brought up a good point; could a team even get insurance on KD if they signed him? I would think that if they can’t, they wont max him with that injury.

But yeah, I can see a team willing to max him all things considered if it means getting him in house. But depending on when KD’s option needs to be exercised that puts KD in a tough spot. Are other players willing to sign with “x team” knowing KD won’t play for a year and that if he does come back he could be 65% of who he was before?

It’s really tricky.

Good point on Flakers needing to win now mode so either he stays with GS or goes to Nets or NY? I think both will be at his door step with a big fat contract in hand. So the FLAKERS have to go all in for KY, Or AD and I don’t think they have a chance with either player.

Would 12 + bridges be worth taking on the bad contracts?

I might do it for Batum’s dead money but with another future first.

"According to ESPN’s Brian Windhorst, the Pelicans and Celtics are involved in a stare-down, and he thinks the Los Angeles Lakers are being used to drive up the price for his star. “I think it’s a good sign that David Griffin is shopping the number four pick. That at least means he’s open to a deal with the Lakers,” Windhorst said. “But I think all of this is a maneuver to draw as much as he possibly can out of the Celtics.”



– via Booth Newspapers"

I hope he's right. That would leave LA without AD and with no real prospects for an all star addition. I would think DDR would be much more valuable to them if this happens.

If AD goes to Boston then it's more likely Kyrie stays. That would leave the Knicks and Nets going to plan B.

On principal you’re right but if he’s happy where he is then good for him.

do AD and kyrie have a good relationship or are people implying kyrie would be more likely to stay because of the talent?

The Klay and KD injuries definitely help the Spurs. Much tougher now for other franchises to form a super team. If AD goes East there will be no clear cut favorite in the west unless Kawhi joins LeBron which is unlikely

I think it’s the latter; don’t know anything about AD/Kyrie’s relationship. But man, if LA cant pull in AD things get messy for them.

If LA strikes out, that is 50% of Brons deal wasted and worse? The youth’s value can only plummet IMO. They are already viewed as core pieces for a player like AD, so if they continue to show what they appear to really be, that really hurts LA.

Beyond that, there were already reports of Ingram, Zo and others being pissed at Bron/La for how the trade deadline went down. If they get smeared all over trade rumors again and fail? Do those guys demand trades from LA?

But please, for the love of God Boston, pull the trigger for AD. Not only do I want him in the East, but that would make things so messy for LA. Do it Ainge.

there should also be a lot more suitors who'd be interested in adding DeRozan, especially if AD goes to Boston. That would really be best case scenario. And let the Knicks somehow get Kawhi please:rollin

Weren’t they holding out assets in a Kawhi trade gambling that A.Davis was going to be available? This is the time. Not a fan of Ainge personally but if Spurs aren’t getting Davis then Boston is a good choice.

Yes, but apparently things with Kyrie really turned south after that which is a new-ish variable that didnt exist at that time.

The Pelicans don't even have that pick. Was it a mistake, or is Windhorst just assuming that AD to the Lakers is a done deal?

Ya - that’s pretty standard stuff tbh...I think everyone knows the lakers are in the running and NO is talking to them. It’s not uncommon at all to ask around to other teams what they value that pick in so you can weigh that into all the offers you receive.

Well the Lakers just jumped the Spurs in the standings next year. Time to start the rebuild now

Fuck !! Anthony Davis to lakers

Now that it's semi-official since we got Woj bombed, we have one shiny semi-new DeMar DeRozan for that pick if NO is interested.

i wonder if the fact that two veteran assistent coach have gone out means that next season we project to go all in with young kids development...Becky looks similar to Pop in the way she manage relationships and probably, also considering her age, as main assistent coach could probably work better with young guys...so ther's a chance that that both DDR and LMA will be traded this year after a good season for both.

Realistically does anyone believe the Spurs will do anything significant?

And the Spurs FO will stand pat with very minor changes...what a,joke. I suppose standing pat made a bit of sense when they had all the big three in their primes but that will not work anymore especially with this team and none on this Roster should be untouchable. I'm sorry but this FO is completely out of touch.

Lol........some of u dudes are way to emotional!

Just posted it as well

DJ. :spin

Damn, I don't think it's a good think Walker to do. He was the guy posting vids of Murray rehabbing during last year, so I assume the two are friendly. But maybe not? This should blow over, but you never know with some people. Kawhi supposedly quit on the Spurs because of a random comment.

FkLA SpurPadre, get in here :lol

Lonnie gifted DJ's younger brother a graduation gift. I think the two are fine. Its a bit concerning they dont like each others photos though.

Nothing to see here. DJ won't get butt hurt like Load Management's bitch ass, tbh. Playful ribbing amongst REAL men.

People on Twitter were commenting on his vacation pictures questioning if he was spending time in the gym getting better. He even made a twitter post in follow up to that. Nothing to see here folks

Tbh Walker and Murray like to troll people since it’s so easy to play fools.

This post is directed at all the internet trolls questioning if he's in the gym or not. That includes 95% of spurstalk posters

https://www.spurstalk.com/forums/ima...ies/smilol.gif it's as if these kids were lurking, and now they're just playing with these grumpy old men,
well played

Haters gonna hate

I think context matters..If Lonnie did that and there was nothing else going on it would be odd. But when he got hit up about not working on his game this was a shot at those people.

I'm on it.

I would love Randle on the spurs. He can handle the ball up. Plays tough and rebounds. Also he shoots 34% on threes this past year on over 150 attempts I think. He could lead the bench or start. Maybe could be had for the full mid-level

Would love Julius Randle on the Spurs .. but I read somewhere randle was interested in joining Phoenix suns

No way. I'd say 15 million and up (probably more like 20). He scored over 20 ppg and Bogdanovic's salary is likely in the same range

Randle was the best of the Lakers' young players.

He's somewhat duplicative of LMA but he'd still be a nice addition to the Spurs.

Does anyone know if a S&T for Randle would be allowed between NOLA and us under the CBA?

Why would they do that?

Trade Demar for Beal. Pretty much the same salary. Beal has two years left and Derozan has one. Throw in a pick

Are you hearing anything on if Spurs will stand pat as is with #19 and #29? Or make some sort of move? Not asking for anything definitive or specific to compromise something. Just curious if there’s something likely to happen

Haven't heard anything. If I do I will definitely share.

If they were interested in moving the #4 for LMA and we could get Randle on the s&t it might be a win for both teams.

I would love Randle on the Spurs as well

Fit wise, thats not bad... Beal is basically who we want Lonnie to be. Though with Beal, we have a redundance in guards who specialize in shooting (Lonnie, Forbes, Beal, Beli) versus now where we have a redundance in playmaking (DJ, White, DeMar).

Brooklyn just declined RH Jefferson.... hes now an UFA

Washington would never trade Beal for Demar.

That would actually be a great pick up. Good defender at the 3, 24 years old and shouldn't cost much. RC should be on the phone ASAP

i'm also hearing randle is in interested in teaming up with kyrie in brooklyn.

I could see him firing in certain lineups if we can surround him with the right shooters.

One of the markers of someone who could be taught to shoot is FT%. He had a tough all around year last year, but his first three years, the progression was 71%, 75%, 79%.

I'd take that gamble since we got Chip. He's only Derrick White's age, plenty of room to develop. He was great the year before and fell off a cliff last season. So there is some untapped potential and his market value is really low. Could be a reclamation project that pays off in the long run and since we won't have a lot of cap space I'd rather have a 24-year old around than a Quincy Pondexter

should be looking at moving lma, ddr, mills, belli...deadweight players and contracts

Yep so we can clear up cap space to sign Kobe, David Robinson, and Tim Duncan!! Brilliant Strategy :bobo

Quote:

---

The Suns have discussed forwards T.J. Warren and Josh Jackson in several separate trade packages, as well as the No. 6 pick, league sources said.

---

Being that the Spurs worked out Sekou Doumbouya who's projected as the 9th pick, this might be the move they are looking at to ship out DeRozan. Suns seem to be the only team in the top 10 trying to move the pick besides NOLA

DRob would have been the ideal player for this era in basketball. People bust nuts about AD but prime DRob would wipe the floor with that guy.
