if they had to give up an asset to get rid of Carroll or Marco...I agree to keep them
It kind of shines the light on what they may have been offered for DeRozan, though, since both are UFAs this summer if they opt out.
Drummond is 90s ball just the same way DeMar is. He has about 25% of the value (not necessarily monetary) that he had when he signed his current deal. A big who can't put the ball in the hole from further than 3-4 feet is worse than DD's midrange limitations, and a problem for his team in today's game that values shooting over literally any other skill.
To be somewhat fair to PATFO (though they own their share of blame for their stubbornness), I'm sure no team was dying to make any deals with us out of jealousy and spite. The sports media, particularly ESPN, has always hated our success but now there's a widespread backlash against us and enjoyment of our demise going on around the league. Sure, PATFO "like what they have" but the league and their sponsors certainly like what we have too lol. I mean, we all know what Leonard did to this team was treacherous and unethical and the media and league knows it too but they didn't really call him out on it...ONLY because it happened to the San Antonio Spurs. Had Leonard done what he did to the Lakers or any other big market team, he would've been shunned from society with a fierce media backlash from the same hypocrites that defend him now like Shannon Sharpe, Cris Carter, Stephen A. Smith, and Chris Webber.

I cant root for a team that dont try to get better. Pop was busy with his Black history speech to pay attention to trades. It's about A White man living in these times where racism still exists an our president isn't impeached.
Since when has Pop been in the business of waving older players so younger players could play ?
Since when has Pop been in the business of waving guys who just signed a 3 year contract ?
So the spurs couldn't trade Beli...but they are just going to waive him so some other team can sign him and the spurs get nothing ?
Nah... they have too much trust in PATFO
LOB
Mentality
Baybee
Such a disgrace we couldn't trade Beli at least. Even for a two year contract. We don't know need cap space next year.
Thanks, some nice pieces. And I bet it doesn't take them an entire year to become "integrated" into the system. I congratulate your team for some nice, bold moves. You have a team that should be a lot of fun to root for. Waiters is an interesting wild card, too.
Dies Carroll's value go up ever so slightly during the offseason?
Umm... The Spurs did this just last year. Playing young giys during the second half of the season is pretty typical Spurs stuff. Though they usually are winning enough to feel like they can afford it.
"Serious backlash" will happen when the media scrutinizes the Old Asshole's recent years with the same critical eye it does other coaches in the league.
Who were the young guys last year that played in the second half of the season but not the first ?
And who were the old guys who got their minutes reduced ?
Cause the only person I remember was Pau...but that was only after Pop spent a few weeks trying to force him into the lineup and Pau was to washed to even consistently run up and down the court...
By not unloading anyone and improving we may have earned a higher lottery pick.
No doubt. I think we could get as low as 5 or 6. It will be very interesting to see what kind of energy the team has when it takes the floor tonight.
Your moniker perfectly captures the feel of ST right now.
I dont know it all depends on how this trip finishes for sure
No, the media has already decided that the Spurs' success is largely the result of Pop's genius. They may think he treats reporters like but to them, that's the only thing that has made the Spurs marketable during this run so they don't mind. When he's done coaching, they will actually celebrate him even more because they will no longer see him as a Spurs person, they'll see him as a loveable cranky old genius who tells it like it is and made a dynasty out of a team of unathletic players with aw shucks personalities, tbh.
I’m more interested in who they pick then where they pick. If they still place priority on euro trash players or short SG volume shooters that don’t play defense then it doesn’t matter where the pick is.
I hate this team so much
Wheres demarre?
I think the worm will turn before he retires. This season is a watershed in the media's regard for the Old Asshole.
Yeah i heard about that. They were trying to emulate the rob pelinkas and bob myers of the league. We'll see how this will turn out for them
