? Only one of those guys was a top 10 pick, and Sochan was #9. Keldon was #29. I don’t think anyone saw any of those 3 as guys to get us over the hump.
Sochan, Devin and Keldon are all damn near unplayable at the end game, that's not ideal from 3 guys who were supposed to help us get over the hump
As far as I'm concerned, everyone is available aside from Vic and Castle. They need someone to be the clear #2 or a few players who can create and make their own shots

Is Brian Wright on a ski trip? Do you think he’s aware the team needs a backup C?
Trading a player would hurt their feelings and we don't do that here.
I wish we could trade for some LA or NY medias right now...
Collins for Nurkic
Do you do it ?
He’s so bad and it doesnt save any money - dont really see the point tbh…
I only want to do trades that have a reasonable assumption of improving the team actually. I mean, of course if SA can add more capital somehow too while not losing flexibility Im good with that as well. But in terms of player trades, I want SA to ship the deadweight out and get players in that elevate the ceiling.
Outside of Wemby and Castle we don’t have much that would garner draft capital anyways lol.
I’d love to package a boatload of SRPs to get rid of Keldon & Zollins for vet big though.
I won't deny it will be a lateral move that will bring nothing positive or negative to the big picture.
I view that just as a last minute trade. If Suns don't find a good trade with Nurkic and Spurs don't find a good trade with Collins at the deadline, they do the swap and hope a change of scenery will make the player less catastrophic.
Nurkic might be the only player Spurs could get for Collins without adding draft incentives and who doesn't have a worse contract than Collins.
Saying all that, Nurkic does suck. But can he be a less bad backup C than Collins/Bassey? That is what I'm wondering...
Nurkic is obviously a terrible starting center but he couldn't possibly be worse than Collins as backup could he?
He's even slower than Collins, also has no range and is an awful finisher considering his size.
The only thing he has going for him is solid rebounding.
Most importantly, he's an even bigger idiot than Collins and always instigates .
i'm content with waiting for this summer and seeing if miles turner or naz reed could be acquired somehow.
Turner is an above average starter, he won't accept a bench role.
I'm not sure how good would Naz be in a bigger role and he'll definitely demand ~30 million a year.
They both likely get near DV money but I feel they could start alongside Wemby better than Sochan. Too bad we have nearly 50% of our cap tied up in Zollins, Keldon and Vassell.

if turner tires of being stuck on a treadmill in indiana, that could set up a sign and trade.
And if you trade for Nurk, there will be a reasonable expectation that we actually play him (even if just to see how it goes). Collins is expensive, but he isn't hurt anyone firmly planted to the bench. In fact, he appears to be an elite-level towel waiver. He's got that stink face/air freshener motion on 3s down pat.
I'm honestly so desperate for Wright to show signs of life I'd accept anything, even a pointless Collins-Nurkic swap.
Maybe no trade protocols are in place until Pop returns.
I'm down so bad that I even thought about the feasibility of taking on Beal if we can get 2 unprotected FRPs for it while getting rid of Collins and Keldon in the process.
IND is a team I rarely think about... but they're a young team, strong fan base, returning EC finalist, and appear to be surging as of late. They don't strike me as a team that players are dying to get off of right now.
Trading Collins for an even worse player who now you have to give minutes to is exactly the kind of move I expect Wright to make, tbh. Maybe we'll get lucky and he'll trade Vassell for Bradley Beal or Terry Rozier too.I'm honestly so desperate for Wright to show signs of life I'd accept anything, even a pointless Collins-Nurkic swap.

i've seen players, with similar cir stances, leave their teams. spurs FO can't afford to think like spurs fans.
You have to think about this right?
SAS: Beal + 32FRP
PHX: Dev + Collins
I'm not even sure what this means, but I'll go on the record and state that I don't see Turner pushing to leave IND in order to be Wemby's backup.
Just threw up all over myself
