I've done a little bit of light research into Brian Wright's career with Orlando and Detroit, and I have an honest question: has he ever been involved in a major, dynamic, franchise changing trade?
Maybe Brook Lopez and FRP swap in 2031 from the Bucks for future SRPs from the Spurs.

Dejounte?
It's only premature if you want to tank. It's not premature if you feel like Wemby is a top 20 player (he is) and you want to win (we apparently don't).
Elaborate?
I should've been clearer, meaning a dynamic trade involving team construction rather than deconstruction/tanking.

Atlanta basically stayed the same and the Spurs were already well on their way to being a bottom of the barrel tanking team.
He was the architect of the Kawhi trade.
Brian just keep getting it Wright
He seems to be a bit of a baby.
Klay Thompson wants to go to a contender to show those meanies at Golden State what they're missing.
Yeah, that definitely helped change the Raptor franchise.
It was better than the Lakers giving us Luol Deng.
Told ya.
Step up for a message board flogging if you think Spurs are still in the trade market for a PG after drafting Castle.
‘sure I think they might sign Chris Paul on a short one or two year as a mentor for Wemby and Castle.
What a waste of money and time in getting a washed up player if you want someone to coach Castle and new players why not just hire a EX NBA coach?
Fans usually have this weird notion that all old players want to take on a mentor role for young players. CPaul is trying to get ring.
Exactly. In demand role players nearing the end of the road, like Paul and Batum, could only potentially be incentivized to sign here if the Spurs drastically overpaid which they shouldn't be doing.
Harris is a different story though. He's still young enough to conceivably be enticed, though the Pistons can offer more.
What contender wants him though? It's pretty lonely at the top right now and I don't see any of those teams feeling like they need to sign him
True, but to assume his mindset is to join a rebuilding team and play mentor while getting 10-12 minutes a game means that he's accepted his fate as never getting a ring. Perhaps that's a realization that he's about to have. I don't know enough about other team's cap to suggest which contender would be willing to add him.
lol right when I posted that above, news breaks that CP is a Spur.
You sure did, buddy.
I find it far more common for folks to assume all old players want to win a ring at all costs. Hence why people assumed Paul wouldn't sign with the Spurs.
