so you think the price for Lauri is...
4 first round picks (spurs 24/26/28 + hawks 25) + 2 first round swaps? (25 spurs and 26 hawks) in addition to a young player + multiple SRPs?
i know Ainge is a shark but even he wouldnt think thats the ask...
I'll drive...

Maybe I'm not communicating this right. Yes, I think that's Ainge's price for Lauri. Is Lauri worth anything near that much? Of course not. Realistically, he's worth probably 2 unprotected 1st rounders and a decent young prospect. But Ainge has no reason to trade Lauri and has stated that he intends to build around him, so you have to blow him away with an offer. Only team that is willing to come close to that is probably OKC, and that's why Lauri isn't getting traded.
Kinda funny but also kinda sad that Hawks are offering up Murray already
I’m glad they made the deal, and filled our draft coffers, but it was badly conceived on their part.Kinda funny but also kinda sad that Hawks are offering up Murray already
that video was a decent enough primer if somebody wasnt familiar with the spurs situation. with that said... the trade scenarios were pretty bizarre to me. ivey is the only one there with appeal. and the mock draft was gross.
i feel sad for murray lol. he signed an extension with them and turned down big money, all in the name of loyalty, and now he's getting stungKinda funny but also kinda sad that Hawks are offering up Murray already
send him home
can't wait to see him ting on the Hawks on his instagram after he gets tradedi feel sad for murray lol. he signed an extension with them and turned down big money, all in the name of loyalty, and now he's getting stung

Re: Coby White; I think he was a restricted free agent who signed for cheap: meaning if Brian Wright was interested in him the Spurs probably could have had him for Zach Collins money
So I don't see any trade even possible, setting aside how happy the Bulls are to have him and his
Restricted FAs never come cheap to a different team, unless there’s some kind of issue. If he signs a friendly offer sheet with us, the Bulls simply match.
Yeah he signed a 3 year deal over the summer. $40M/3y, which is looking like a bargain now. No way Chicago moves him now. Silly “rumor”
Right and that's why you hear prominent players like Siakam, Anunoby, Harris, Bridges, etc. who they're expected to pursue either now or in the off season.
Not bit players, which they already have.
Doug would be a top 7 player on their team right now. Cedi too. Sure, they may want to swing for more, but will they be able to if teams know they are desperate? Going this route is cheaper (2nd rounders) and you get to salvage locker room some and maybe get some confidence for the younger guys with better lineups/shooting etc..
Who knows.
That TOR pick is looking like a top 7-10 pick. That is a very valuable pick IMO.
So if you’re giving that up and the CHI pick looks like a decent bet to convey too IMO…that’s 2 lottery picks.
Maybe add in one more future first and that’s 3 firsts including two that look lottery and one for sure in the TOR pick.
I think those 3 get it done. Now, what players might that take too? That’s where it gets tricky. If they want expiring deals no problem. If they want Sochan or Keldon? Different story.
Who are we talking about for that package? White, Bridges, Siakam? Etc
Wemby is not wrong about Vegas - it is a crummy city IMO. Vegas has a certain appeal to visitors, but it would be one of last places in the world I would want to live.
Seattle had the opportunity to retain the Supersonics - they did not. Living in Seattle in the fall and winter would be great - cold, rainy, and generally depressing overall.
The SAS ownership group understands San Antonio will never get a second chance at a major league team - I'm hopeful they act accordingly.
BTW - a large number of the ex-Spurs stay in San Antonio, FWIW.
No, they wouldn't. They have Livers and Knox to play the backup stretch forward role behind Bogdanovic. Again, not great, but not worthwhile expending any asset on a veteran expiring for.
They have a number of big expiring contracts and up coming cap space and if they're foolish enough to punt this early on Ivey, he can be the linchpin of a package for a pseudo star like LaVine.
Going back to Coby White for a minute. Are they trying to bottom out or cut salary? What's their motivation to move him? Would absorbing bad salary instead of 1st get it done? Say sending them KJ + expiring salary for Coby + absorbing Lonzo's deal?
That’s not a serious rumor. It was from one of those websites churns AI generated trade proposals.
Ahhh...gotcha..
How desperate are the Lakers getting as we approach the deadline? That may be our best opportunity to work into a 3 way deal and get an asset or two.
Yeah that site had about 15 blockbuster trades that were about to happen
It's gonna be fascinating to see. They don't have anything left to trade, do they? I can see going for DDR or LaVine from Chicago but they're full of bad players and have no picks.
That's my thoughts too... Will they get desperate enough to go get Lavine... i can't imagine it will cost much, but, as you said, LA has no trade assets they'd include.... They could package Russell and Reaves with some salary like Prince. I'd do it if i were Chicago just to get rid of Lavine, but if I'm them im looking for a 3rd or 4th team to facilitate a rebuild.
Looks like the Nets aren’t gonna put it together this season. Mikal Bridges is having a down year and not playing great lately. He’s a guy who I think would fit well here. I’d be interested in what they’d want for him. Cam Johnson to a lesser extent. Dinwiddie is looking worse but kinda sorta would fill a need but his shooting percentage is pretty bad. Nets could be selling soon.
