But we probably couldn've have gotten another 20131 pick. You're being too short sighted.
Seven years ago Kawhi had just taken us to the WCF and had the greatest team in NBA history down 20 on the road in a WCF game and the Spurs looked set for a decade with another franchise player. Just saying, a lot of can happen in 7 years and one of or both of the 2031 Minnesota pick and 2031 Sacramento swap could be something big. It would be surprising if neither was a lottery pick.

Yes, at the end of the day if you weren't ready to get bent over by Danny, you weren't ever going to get Markkanen. This is non news. Almost 100 pages in ST of wasted energy, hopes & dreams here.
News flash: all of the energy that goes into this message board is wasted. People discussing here has zero impact on anything. Cancer isn't being cured by ST.com posts.
LOL says the guy who wasted energy advocating for a ridiculous trade where Utah got not only all three of the assets from Atlanta, but even got best of between Spurs/Hawks for 25, 26, and 27.
Lol, naw I was messing with you guys obviously on that thread you speak of. I haven't wanted this trade for a while now.
With that at ude, lets be realistic, nothing matters. Get a gun son.... PS you have made the argument of someone who just has to always be right btw.
Counterpoint: I can just continue with the past times that entertain me, like I'm currently doing.
Because one thing is irrelevant, and ST is, that doesn’t mean everything is.
Let's skip the existentialism and just talk hoops... Man I'm just disappointed in this off-season. I really thought Spurs would make one more big trade and it's just not looking like it..
Says he was messing then admits at one point he wanted it...fact u actually typed it out all that matters
Boy you’re fun to be with in a poker table
I can just see his birthday cards to friends and family: “Happy birthday! You’re one year closer to eternal darkness!”
Yeah my mom and dad just died and it has been pretty dark since then. Well honestly I’ve always been kinda emo. You should read my twitter sometime for the feel good lolz

I'm sorry for your loss. Sounds like a tough one losing both parents.
I'm sorry for your loss man.
Stay strong
Next 24 hrs should offer some Markkanen insight, right?
Tom Petty said the waiting is the hardest part, he was on to something.
This cat a spur yet
The deadline is by the end of the day tomorrow. God I hope the Spurs land Lauri.
My best and final offer:
Spurs Get:
Lauri
John Collins
Jazz Get:
Keldon
Zollins
26 ATL pick swap
2030 pick swaps
31 Minny pick
Hornets pick
Jazz get four firsts two of which are home run picks in 26 and 30 picks and the Minny pick counts as a triple. Hornets pick is a gimmick pick but it allows the Jazz to say that they got four firsts for Lauri. The Zollins for Jollins swap saves the Jazz 18M over the next two seasons plus Keldon should have decent trade value during the 2026 tradeline with player salaries going up and up with Keldon's salary going down.
Huh? You're offering one first, two swaps, two seconds, and crap.
that is the best they’re going to get.
you cant trade a pick swap. atlanta only agreed to swap with the spurs, not with the jazz. what you can offer, is to send the spurs 2026 pick (phrased more accurately as "the better of SAS 2026 and ATL 2026 picks" with atlanta retaining the worse of them)
as for 2030, same story. you cant send over just the swap. we only own one pick in 2030, and we'd have to trade that. though that would be phrased as trading "the most favorable of the spurs 2030, mavs 2030, and wolves 2030 (top 1 protected)"
And there it is:
“Jazz star Lauri Markkanen appears likely to delay signing his new extension until after Tuesday so he can ensure that he won’t be traded this season, league sources tell Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports.“
Let’s revisit next summer.
could also apply last minute pressure for Utah to trade him now knowing they wont be able to do so at the deadline in a year they will be actively trying to tank
Or more likely, that report is just trying to generate some views by stating the obvious.
He can't extend before tomorrow, but there's no way he extends tomorrow because there's no reason for him to waste half a season if he's getting traded eventually.
If he doesn't extend on 7th, then we'll be able to talk about a potential trade and Ainge will be under more pressure with each passing day Lauri doesn't extend or isn't traded.
