This looks nothing more than SA doing a favor to Boston, make a little bit of cash (I saw something like $3.1MM going SA's way to cover their costs and make a little on top), but mostly developing goodwill with other teams.
^ The reason the Celtics paid the Spurs to take Vonleh is to clear his salary off their books, which counts for double considering they're already a projected tax payer.
As for the open roster spot, they were always going to have to clear one to convert Bassey at some point. The alternative would have been waiving probably Roby or possibly Bates-Diop.
Spurs giving up a 2 for that $$

Vonleh already waived? I just ordered a custom Fiesta Vonleh jersey.
its a 2 that will never convey. had to give something on paper, but are giving nothing in reality.
only thing that was done was our owners made a little bit of money and the team lost a little bit of cap space
It wont convey…that protected pick is the standard “worst pick you can trade” in trades like this and rarely do they convey.

Mugen: "Why, yes, I'd turn down a couple million dollars for doing nothing. Yes, I would."
He was non-guaranteed.
people cheerleading for ownership's bank statements
I’m guessing that the HollywoodLakerswould jump at the chance to shave several million off of Westbrooks awful contract.
I ing hate rich people, but this transaction doesn't ing matter. If anything it's an act of comity between franchises.
If you dislike rich people or seeing their bank statements rise, you should want nothing to do with NBA franchises OR players.
Plot twist: Cash Considerations is actually the name of a 6’5, 260lb, high character tweener PATFO is super high on.
im a fan of the spurs basketball team. i like the sport. thats why i watch, and thats the extent of what i care about
my rooting interest is not in the wealth of any particular owner. a move that doesnt help the spurs but lines the owner's pocket is not one that i cheerlead for
no ! Fck the owners thh
LeBronis probably wealthier than the Holt clan.
This is like the Stanley Johnson pick-up where people were freaking out trying to read the tea leaves what this meant for the franchise moving forward. Like, if you're even remotely, one iota worried or even interested in what happened with this Noah Vonleh thing, don't. It literally is next to nothing. Go touch grass. Kiss your mom. Something.
Wut? would much rather have Dieng.
I increasingly don't get this team's moves.
Why do you hate rich people? The vast majority of rich people got that way providing goods or services that benefitted many people. Why would you hate someone for making people’s lives better?
lol, wut?
no, "most" of them started off wealthy or with advantages not available to the average joe. Examples currently in the news: Kardashians, Trump, Elon, etc. If you think they got that way providing goods or services and not having the benefit of generational wealth, then you're exactly like the rest of the ignorant ppl that think they are God's gift to humanity.
I'll never get the thirst some of you have to bootlick the wealthiest members of society. Especially while you probably dont have good healthcare that wont bankrupt you if you have a serious accident or illness.
It's sad and pathetic, and definitely not a good look. Oh, and they're not gonna you for standing for them. In fact most everyone of them would quite literally piss and on you and think nothing of it if they could make some more money from doing so.
Can't wait for that 2023 P&L Banner to go up tbh
1) dieng is completely inconsequential to a team that is fighting for a high lottery pick
2) they waived vonleh anyway. this was not a matter of choosing vonleh over dieng
only thing this accomplished was our owner makes a little bit of cash. the spurs did not benefit one iota from this
