There is Markannen to Spurs Buzz

Depends on the picks. If Lauri is commanding all the ATL 25+ ATL 27 + Spurs 25 + CHI 25 (4 picks ) and Cam is commanding SA 2029 top 14 protected + CHA pick I’d easily take Cam

Come on CHA isn't a first man

[timtonymanu]

one of the all time head scratchers

And to top it off, they only waived Primo when his flasher stuff went public. They really wanted to keep that scrub around that they would risk legal actions. It's astounding for a front office that was once lauded for finding Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili through the draft. That's why I laugh at Spurs fans that get petty at other players and how they handle themselves on social media "oh that's not spurs like. we don't want him."

Yet we allowed Primo and Forbes, both so-called "yes-men" (sign us up baby! that's spurs like) that ended up having destructive issues, to be here. I just want a player that's talented, not because he got an A+ in an American government course or that his favorite downtime hobby is reading.

I sometimes can appreciate why Mr. Body tells people to kill themselves. Not always, but sometimes.

exstatic not getting another joke? News at 11.

[AFBlue]

Protect '25 and any other deal is worth it. Assume that will be a deal breaker.

Sure - but I can see with Cams value that being the type package and I easily take him over Lauri in that case. I can see Cam being just one first like the CHI pick or SA 29 lottery protected.

[timtonymanu]

Spurs have the best chance to get him, of course that means it won't happen. Presti would have had this deal done 2 days ago. (Sniffer bait)

[Chinook]

I dont think he needs to be vet enough when the skillset is a perfect match not only starting but unlocking a lot for the other guys. Im cool with Grant too especially because hes a player that will retain value should SA only want him for a season or two and then trade him

To me, the vet part is what really matters. This is about experience and learning to win, while growing up. While Cam has the better contract and isn't likely to decline during it, he doesn't know how to be a number 1. Grant, as one of the many hats he's worn over his colorful career, actually does. On equal contracts, this is a no-brainer. But in the real world, neither is perfect and both would be fine if the price were right.

Ainge probably has some kind of grudge against Pop from the mid-90s and now he's going to use this just to with him. Dangle the carrot long enough for Pop to wake up and fall out his rocking chair, and then execute the trade to Presti.

Rather that than have him tell me the long-term value of Branham and Wesley tbh

You know Body wouldn't be singing the same tune if Branham was playing on any other team right now. "They wasted their pick on Branham."

You know what's funny? I don't know who nearly anybody here is. Almost everyone has the same name. There are a few people who never say anything remotely interesting, like that Kony guy, just comes in to wail and . Some others make really good points and are interesting like Bowen and Bill and I'm assuming those are relatively right as far as names go.

Yet everyone is obsessed with me. You are, and I have no ing idea who you are.

Kind of hilarious, in my estimation.

[DPG21920]

Im going to laugh when CHA makes the play-in and beats an injured MIA to make the playoffs and that pick conveys

It’s the constant negative drumbeat.

Man, I hate all these Hitler detractors. The constant negative drumbeat is really taking away from all the great work we’re doing in Birkenau

[Knoxxx]

50 minutes ago, GS, Kings, SAS all have substantial offers on the table:

Presti's the one GM that can son Ainge; Danny is better off picking on PATFO.

After you have traded it for Cam Johnson?

[Degoat]

Feel like GSW has to be in the drivers seat out of SA and SAC. They’re desperate and those post curry picks will be amazing

[KobesAchilles]

I’m glad to see some people on Spurstalk are waking up to the fact that Wright hasn’t proven he can draft at all. And that us having draft picks don’t mean if we keep picking the wrong guy. Chinook is right. We need vets. It’s why I want Gordon Hayward or even Batum. But if we have the ammo to go get Lauri then we should do it.

I mean if Wright is such a good drafter then we already will have a contender bc we have 4 lottery picks starting. Unless people here on Spurstalk don’t believe in Sochan and Vassell and Castle

[DPG21920]

After you have traded it for Cam Johnson?

Correct and then those who said the pick had no value will complain SA overpaid for Cam

[Knoxxx]

Come on CHA isn't a first man

Shhhh we are not trying to advertise that! Actually it’s a perfect throw in tie breaker. We match the FRPs of another team and throw this one in. AND it definitely converts into two possibly high 2nd round picks if CHA continues to suck.

Stop dissin on our CHA 2025 FRP rights!

Spurs have been mentioned since the beginning. Them offering one of the ATL picks, the Minny picks, plus Johnson/Sochan is going to be hard for anyone to beat.

The ATL picks have a good chance of being lottery either this year with them trading Murray for picks or in 2027 when Young could be gone. The Minny picks are 6 years out but have the potential to be any pick.

Those are all better than you get with improving the SAC or the GSW who can only offer picks likely to be of playoff teams and players which Ainge really doesn't really want. He is dumping talent and acquiring picks.

If you look at Ainge's assets he has Minn and the Cleveland picks. Minnesota made the finals and improved. Cleveland came in fourth but really has not done much to improve like my 76ers or the Magic. They are still in to the hunt for 5-playin while Ainge has their picks.

The ATL pick would be their crown asset and the Minny crapshoot picks in the future would be on par with the more immediate playin+ Cleveland picks.

Theres ZERO chance IMO spurs trade all the ATL picks (and especially alongside the MIN picks) for Lauri. They would be idiots to do so.

ATL 25 + MIN 31 + MIN 30 swap and a player. Thats it (outside of seconds or something like CHA pick)

Absolutely that is why I said the ATL pick plus the Minny picks being worth more than anything anyone else had on offer.
