After much talk, Toronto stays with Trent and Anunoby. The Poeltl trade signified strengthening rather than pulling the plug.
Well our FRP for Murray was 16 protected and Charlotte are likely to make us refer that until 2024.

the 2023 second round pick isnt gonna be as good as it looks right now. jak legit helps them. 2024 could be interesting though. they are going to make big decisions about paying all of poeltl, vanvleet, and trent
Will take time for the dust to settle, but the league should set something unusual in the trade market. I'm not sure the reasons exactly but teams are strapped for firsts and this thing with the seconds got wild.
I expected to get a single SRP not 4. This is a pertty damn amazing haul for him IMO.
I know Wiseman sucks, but I thought it would be interesting if the Spurs could have got him for cap space and then did a reclamation project like with Collins. That said, I don't think GS could have swallowed trading Wiseman for cap space. It's hard to choke on a high draft pick. I mean, Josh Primo deal sucked, but I would be more upset about Wiseman if I had to chose between the two.
Let's all hope 2nd rounders matter in the next two years when the Spurs try to turn those into solid pieces for the roster.
55 2nd round picks were moved at this deadline. Mostly because most of the contending teams are out of first round draft picks. Most of them now are also out of 2nd round draft picks. Which begs the question: Does that mean 2nd round draft picks are more valuable now? Or will teams trade first round draft picks again by the time free agency opens?
It was shocking to me that after last year and this offseason there were people here who thought the Spurs wouldn't make deals today. Y'all acting like this is the same Spurs team that won't make deals when they win 55+ each year when they're obviously the opposite of that.
What will happen is that teams will sell off FRP come the draft. You can collect all the picks you want but eventually you'll have to move them because you can't use them all. A lot of those will be moved for multiple seconds, IMO.
collins still a hawk and OG still a raptor
The 4 picks were NOT for Richardson, but for taking in 15M in contracts beyond this season (Graham: 12.1M next season, 2.8 -guaranteed- the following). Considering Dedmon's price of 1 2RP for taking in an expiring, I'd say say it's more like 1 pick for Richardson, 3 for the cap space.
The Raptors not moving Van Fleet nor OG seems pretty dumb to me tbh.
which means we can flip our 2nds into 1sts. That's exactly why it makes sense to collect those
bodes well for our pick from the raptors next year. assuming they can hold onto VanVleet this summer.
GS eventually turned Wiseman into Gary Payton II, which is a damn positive haul for a bust. They've managed to find that one GM who was still high on Wiseman. This deal shows how some hypothetical message board trades are nowhere near what reality is.
Which came down to identifying the GM who took on the previous "high potential" bust in Marvin Bagley.
can't help but laugh at the irony of wall being sent back to the rockets.![]()
Warriors did really well -- too well, in my mind -- considering what they had. Getting GPJ back is a big plus.
Meh. We aren’t competing w them for next 2-3 years.
I don't want them to equal our championship number.
Memphis getting Kennard and the Warriors getting Gary Payton ll are great moves.
This new second round pick batch trend is pretty cool, a nice sign of adaptation-- and just as there were flurries of comments about the uselessless of SRPs, the Warriors proved that theory wrong by reacquiring a guy who has a clear history or making them better.
they are trash picks. NOP are a good team and still have a good amount of incoming draft capital. good chance all those picks are well into the 50s
also hurts us. their 2023 SRP wont be as good as it looks right now
dude, you're like the arthur schopenhauer of ST posters.
