    Not entirely opposed if it's a single season or single year plus something easily tradeable. The young players clearly need excellent vets to help scaffold what they're growing into. Team badly needs a shot-getter from the perimeter.

    But Paul does all this. Again, absolutely not opposed. These are exactly the players to teach and learn from. Can move to a contender that badly needs them. Don't see it though.

    Even though it's probably a remote possibility at best, that's still the scariest thing I've seen in a long time.

    This would be more about 'doing the right thing by players'.

    It would be to get DeRozan to a respectable contract number above the mle for like a 1+1 so DDR could save face then trading him where he wanted to go at the deadline.

    Pop loves DDR and crying all over him, this is there ultimate player favor

    "This is who we are."
    Even in that scenario, if they reacquire him or S bag (obviously never happening) ever again, I'm out.

    Be funny if he signs for like $15 or something and both him and CP get traded as a package to a contender of their choice at the deadline. Instant veteran backcourt.

    Please no, tbh. Might as well bail out Bryn Forbes from prison and re-sign him while they're at it.
    Mfer stole my joke tbh.

    DeMar iso’ing on one side of the cart while Wemby stands in the opposite corner. Just what we need tbh.

    The ball stops in Delmar’s hands where it should be on CP3 as the primary ball handler. And Demar is bad playing off ball for not a shooter.

    DeRozan would also be an upgrade to Keldon off the bench. If for some reason the Spurs found themselves moving Johnson in a separate deal, sixth-man DeMar would probably fill it up. While I think Jones and DeRozan could survive so long as everyone else in the lineup were a good shooter, the current concepts of the bench have shaky shooters like Branham and Collins. Only Champangie is decent, and even he's more streaky than good. Maybe they can check to see if the Pacers are willing to sign-and-trade McD back to them.

    Short contract and 6th man role wouldn't be stupid

    Do you think DeRozan, in a season where he wants to ensure max value due to not having suitors, would be cool coming off bench?

    Please no. Does not fit with the starting lineup at all. And giving minutes to Branham and Wesley even if they're playing like trash is still more valuable.

    This is not a good fit. I’d take it for the right deal but I’m struggling with the on court benefit.

    Yes. I want him to teach his footwork to our guards for sure. A great low-risk signing with high upside, I hope we finalize the contract tomorrow. Having Castle guard him in practice would be great for his development. Not like we're winning anything this season anyway.

    These are takes of actual Spurs fans. No wonder the FO doesn't feel any heat to build a serious team.

    I don't think DeRozan is in line to start on any contender. The issues he'd face with the Spurs he'd face anywhere. Other places have more shooting but would be harder pressed to win and thus couldn't have a non-shooter and non-defender start. That said, he's not like Paul -- DeMar had a great year last year. No one's going to doubt his ability if he comes in and is a sixth man, because that's what they'd want him to be too. If the Spurs showed him the money, I don't think he'd have a big of an issue with it as you do. If starting is more important than money, I think he'd've been able to find some bad team to give him the nod.

    To be fair... we were all afraid the Spurs would just run it back + two rookies, but HAHA jokes on us, they're revamping the team with one rookie, CP3 and Delmar!

    Not sure how the roster would shake out but something like this probably:

    1st team:
    CP3
    Vassell
    Demar
    Sochan
    Wemby

    2nd team:
    Castle
    Keldon
    Champagnie
    Mamu/Cissoko
    Bassey/Collins

    3rd team:
    Tre
    Wesley
    Branham
    Cissoko/Mamu
    Collins/Bassey

    Interesting rotations with lots of hurt feelings on that 3rd team I'm guessing.
