I just want the spurs to do something lol trade for Lauri, Sign Demar, Sign Gary Trent , trade for Cam Johnson, just doing something lol
Hate the idea. To the point that I hope the report is a smokescreen for a different move. Hard pass for sure.

I want them to do the right thing, whatever that is, not anything.
Just dont stunt castles growth
I think an MLE contract can’t be for one year.
This would be the type of uninspiring moves that PATFO would do, tbh.
Like CP3?
Same principles, short term deal a little above market that can be traded
Veteran leadership and bucket getter when needed. Ideally off the bench but Pop can tinker the rotation to deal with his lack of 3pts shooting at diff positions
I like the idea a lot for the short term benefit
I have no problems with any sort of deal with a decent vet like Demar for one season. These young guys could really use some help, maybe expertise is more the word.
Yeah, but CP3 at least is a new face. Also, Paul fits this team a lot more than DeRozan. The last thing this team needs is another sub-par 3 pt shooter.
If that's the issue some of you have I get it, but bb wise he'd fit perfectly in the event that PATFO goes all in on Lauri, for a PO run
There are ways to mask his 3pts deficiencies
Talented vets are becoming underrated rarities in today's NBA
If Demar could be had for a very short term contract, I don't see why not. I'm not sure how much knowledge Wemby and Castle could soak up from Demar and Paul in a single season, but I'm game to find out. The spacing just feels... brutally bad here. But this team needs accelerators to get our young guys competing at a higher level and if that's our prio y I could see Derozan being a brief part of that.
How?
Tre, Castle, Sochan, Branham, Keldon, Collins. All subpar 3pt shooters. How on Earth could we add yet another non 3pt shooter and make it work?
derozan is wearing spurs colors in the new drake diss video..........
Lauri in the starting 5 and I'm assuming more moves would come if he's signed, bc it'd mean the process has really been accelerated and guys like Brahman or Keldon would be trade assets
Does signing Demar leave something enough to sign Markkanen if ever? In case they really want to get Demar back
It depends which players are involved in the trade but yes it's possible (Chinook gave a version in the Lauri thread)
Demar seems like he’d be a fine replacement for Keldon if he was traded for Markkanen.
Sure if you're looking to be on the edge of playoff contention which gets you not much really. I wouldn't trade team development for a false run to the playoffs with vets leading the way.
DDR/CP3 could anchor the bench unit.
I've changed my mind, Demar would be a pretty poor fit. Chris Paul makes sense here but we don't have room on the floor or in the lineup for Derozan to shine in the way he surely wants. This needs to be Wemby's team, with room for our young players to see the court. Also Demar's emo side is a distraction that the team doesn't need. Final verdict: pass.
Makes sense cst that's how he"came home"
If you change Demar to Markkanen, would your narrative remain the same? I’m not advocating Demar, but surely getting Markkanen means he’ll be 2/3 option and less opportunities for “young players to see the court.”
I understand getting CP3 is partly to set more structured offense and help the young core. But once we start talking either Markkanen, Demar or whoever vet, we are talking about competing, with more vets production and less from the young core and even less for some.
If Spurs get Lauri, then DDR just boosts the team, especially if Johnson or Sochan are included in the deal.
