Nothing really. If spurs want him back and he wants to be here it’s very likely to still happen.
I'm not sure that Wemby is going to "compete" with two veteran players who are only in SA cause the teams they were on thought they were better off without them. Still a hug win for the Spurs since we shouldn't be seeing much of Julian, Branhim, and Wesley aka the Trash Triplets, this season.
Spurs landing another capable 3PT shooting wing would be great. Push Barnes to bench where he likely is best and help with bench spacing as well.
You don't understand why adding Chris Paul and Harrison Barnes is going to seriously help the younger players get better?
CP + Vassell + Traded for 3D + Sochan + Wemby
Tre + Castle + Keldon + Barnes or Julian battle + Collins
Most all the leaks have been from Ainge or the GSW who have appearances to keep up.
I go by the idea that Ainge will spout any teams name who has interest because it serves his interest. I don't buy OKC or Houston are in on it because otherwise Ainge would spout it.
Sac was a name leaked and I am curious if this takes them out of the running after giving DDR his contract.
I wouldn't take him for the same money. He doesn't play a wisp of defense, refuses to take three pointers and dominates the ball.
The worst part is that he doesn't specifically do anything wrong, per se. He's a good guy. So he poisons your young players. They all learn from him. Then they all do the same stupid . Dejounte did the same stuff, dribbling the clock down for himself.
Living the American dream of watching sports at home, getting paid to tweet for a living, and eating all the Chipotle he can stuff down his gullet

LOL kings, what an L fücking move.
just waiting on the keldon johnson for jarrett allen trade to go thru.

Do we know if we swapped our natural 2031 pick or the wolves pick?
If by get better you mean replace then sure
Great. Cause the players we have to cut or not play to make this work all ing suck tbh
Kings fans seem to absolutely adore and admire Barnes. All are sad to see him go from everywhere I’ve seen and read. Seems like he’s been a true fan favorite
You can agree to swap the worst 2031 pick SA has with SAC31
I thought you think he is a net negative. If yes then they're tanking?
And it's a free move. So not sure why you're so mad. They can still get Lauri if they really want to
But is that what happened? Sacto could also have negotiated such that the spurs can only swap with the better of their 2031 picks

If the Spurs were smart, they'd give Charlotte whatever seconds they needed to to guarantee Graham (assuming the deal hasn't been fully called into the league yet) so they can use his contract as matching. I don't love the team's deep bench and think they can get multiple back with the room exception and min deals, but it seems with a better use of assets would be to just pay the picks. This also adds the wrinkle that if the team did lose its deep bench, having Furphy on a three-year deal with the second-round exception could've been one of the better ways to fill out the roster.
1. 90% of these youngsters are not there anymore in 2-3 years, or deep bench players So I'm not sure growing into what... No future core pieces obviously. But you brought Castle two daddies..Yep, that's what I thought. Good stuff.
You want two vets that will help the youngsters grow, you can't do much better than CP3 and Barnes
2. If you want two vets that will help the youngsters grow then keep the team bottom of the league (basically tanking) yeah... they're just fine. both are washed up. If you wanna improve the quality of the team on the floor and fight for a PO push, they're bascially the two worst vets you could find.
BTW, this trade, as reported, isn't legal CBA wise:

There must have a "touch" link between Spurs and Bulls. It could be a second round pick or Spurs could trade Bassey to Bulls.In addition to the above, in a three (or more) team trade, each team must "touch" at least two other teams in the trade. To qualify as a touch, at least one of the following must be sent (in either direction):
- An active player contract
- At least $1.1 million cash
- A future pick that will actually be conveyed (for example, a team can't meet the touching requirement by sending a top-55 protected pick, that switches to $100,000 cash if it falls within the top 55)
- The draft rights to an actual NBA prospect (same description as above)
Yeah Bulls are very likely getting something from the Spurs and also it’d be daylight robbery if the Spurs get the unprotected swap for nothing. I think the Bulls would value their TE more and wouldn’t reduce its size by accepting Bassey or Champ or both, unless they really love them. Thus, I expect that one or even both of the seconds Chicago get in this trade would be coming from the Spurs.
Still a damn good deal though.
Of course the bones of this deal could yet be included in a larger one too.
If that's the case, this suddenly becomes a less great deal. Without the Spurs the Bulls lose Demar for nothing.
It really doesn’t make it any worse unless people have unrealistic expectations. Last summer the Spurs traded 3 seconds in the deal that got them the Dallas swap and took on 10 mil of dead money on the books. If they’re getting a serviceable wing who may have value of his own on top of a pick swap this would be incredible business. Too incredible.
i find it really vomit inducing, how underrated champ is by the spurs fans.
Good move
