Lowe: Someone in league texted me and said there's a little bit of buzz about 2 for 11 + Aldridge

[Degoat]

If the Spurs have to give up Aldridge and take back Wiggins, it wouldn't make sense to get Deni. We would need to fill the hole being left at center.

I’m not so sure the spurs are that worried about the center position, they played Rudy gay at center during the bubble some lol but I could be wrong, I just think it makes more sense for the warriors to be interested in Aldridge Incase the wolves take Wiseman #1

[Ice009]

I thought I read Wiseman said he didn't want to play for the Timberwolves? Would the Wolves still take him if he said that and refused to play for them?

They ran a bluff, and it got called. They then had Ball in for a workout, which I don’t think he does without being told he’s their guy.

yeah that was reported about Wiseman but still they could draft him as a trade chip or try to convince him that he’s in a good situation there

I think Edwards/Wiseman or Wiseman/Edwards could very well be the order with Minny dropping down to 3 ala Boston. Charlotte apparently really wants to move up for Wiseman, but GS wants to stick them with Wiggins to move up to 2. The Hornets could find it cheaper just to bypass GS altogether. In that case, GS either takes Edwards or trades down to a team like SA, and Minny gets Ball.

If Wiseman goes #1 and we trade with GS (for Deni? Etc) I would think we keep #11 or get the minny #1 they hold for next year...

I don't think so. Like we don't know how the two sides value the pieces in this deal, but I think SA would have to give up 11 or at least White/Johnson. Maybe the Minny pick comes back in the deal, maybe not. I also don't know that it's particularly desirable to have 11 too, since they'd definitely be in tax territory. Best I could see would be LMA and Murray for Wiggins and 2. That's salary neutral and probably pays GS more than other teams would to make deal happen.

[smush]

If we have to take Wiggins we have to get rid of another guard. Since DDR is staying there is not enough room in the starting 5 for everyone. White,Murray and Derozan Have to start. So one of them would have to go.

LMA and DJM for Wiggins and 2 actually makes sense for both sides. Problem is the Spurs would probably just draft Edwards at 2 anyway. They'd still have a guard glut.

All along trading LMA + Murray for Wiggins +2 makes the most sense for both teams to me. I think its probably the best place for Murray to succeed as well.

[smush]

Take Deni at 2.

white
DDR
wiggins
Deni
Jakob

[talkspurs]

Murry is not going. It is going to be LMA for 2+wiggins. No reason for the Spurs to include someone else.

[smush]

I don’t think the warriors have a backup PG. DJ would be like Shawn Livingston. That might work. The warriors could be asking for white. That’s off the table.

[YoungbuckMurray]

If it is LMA for Wiggins and 2 I’m doing it. Being able to have 2 and 11 would be huge. Also maybe Pop is able to get through to Wiggins and turn him into a more complete player. This gives flexibility to move DDR or keep him and make us a really good offensive team. Even DDR can be a decent defender when he’s engaged. Grab Wiseman and Bey/Williams at 2 and 11

[r0drig0lac]

in this case, that's probably what the FO will do

[4lifecowboy]

Trade Aldridge and Murray for Wiggins and 2
Draft Okongwu with 2, draft Maxey with 11
White
Derozan
Wiggins
Lyle
Okongwu
Bench
Maxey
Walker
Johnson
Gay
Jacob P

[K...]

I have no problem with white being traded but he's worth a top 12 pick on top of LMA, so gsw would need to send more for him

[DPG21920]

Covington netted 16 + another first. White >> Covington

[EasyMoney]

Stop discussing a trade involving dejounte Murray. Its not happening.

Not unless they play small like how they did in the bubble. There's only just a handful of teams that still play big.

Yeah and the teams who play big are the most successful

[r0drig0lac]

yes, the teams that have a real chance of win.

[The Truth #6]

Teams with HOF-caliber superstars in their prime are the most successful. I think that’s the only true common denominator.

[SpurPadre]

Covington netted 16 + another first. White >> Covington

Let's be honest, that's a Spurs fan perception. No one in the sports media sees it that way and there's a chance many in the league don't see it that way, either.

Maybe. I disagree but maybe
