De'Aaron Fox Rumors Suggest a Possible Trade to The Spurs

[Spurs Homer]

Sochan is a guy who needs to be surrounded by shooters. But what we’ve learned from the Spurs is when they have to choose between defense or shooting (perhaps offense in general) they always go defense. Murray, White, Sochan, Vassell, Castle, etc. I believe their basic mindset is that it’s easier to develop a shot than it is to develop good defensive habits. The problem with that mentality is then you have a roster full of guys who can play strong defense but are all working with half broken shots. This roster will need a couple of snipers to be truly rounded out. But those guys always come with defensive liabilities.

which MIGHT have made sense when the NBA allowed players to play defense…

which makes trading away a Dillingham still really really stupid….

Fox first to sub out after 5 minutes in the first

well his flight to SA leaves in an hour.

I mean, if Im being honest trades of this magnitude are hard and we dont know how pushy Fox and Rich are being with “only SA” stuff. Is he at Kawhi level there (obviously not on Kawhi level because hes not abandoning his team and still playing)?

Plus with so many damn teams that makes odds of a deal less likely.

My max offer is still the same.

Vassell + Keldon + worst of 25 ATL/SAS + worst of 27 ATL/SAS + 25 CHI + return 31 SAC swap + couple SRP

Pretty good haul for Sacramento and Spurs keep upside of 25 and 27 picks. Worst of 25 and 27 will likely be Spurs picks which will likely be outside the lottery. Gives the Kings some leverage to deal with Chicago.

That 2031 swap has pretty good value though so you might try keep that if your the Spurs but Sac will no doubt want it back. Maybe you remove the 27 pick or the Bulls pick if that’s the case.

Fox back in...

[BatManu20]

Kinda goes without saying, but De'Aaron's burst in transition is special. Would easily be our fastest PG since prime TP.

Never could find this game here in austin…on tv…

wonder what happend with trae young.Rumors were strong that he wanted to play with wemby,Then next thing you
know he split from klutch.Wonder what wrong there.

I would speculate that Paul was pushing him to SA (and to his credit I think he wanted to go based on his Wemby comments). But after the full court press the Spurs turned it down Young was embarrassed and fired Klutch because of how he felt they didn’t come through. He could fire them and save face acting like that was all them and that he never wanted to leave. It’s got to take a hit on his pride. How many articles were written about his defensive liabilities? About his empty stats and failure to lead his team? And they even started talking again about the draft day failure of Atlanta not getting Luka. Dude has paper thin skin and couldn’t handle the criticism and rejection so Klutch had to go.

Fox just air-balled a wide open 3

If this does end up being a 3 or 4 team deal with Atlanta involved, I'd love to get Garrison Matthews from Atlanta.

Kings down by 30 at half at home to OKC. Can't tell me the trade rumors aren't ing with their locker room tbh.

Fox with 12/2/2 on 4/8 FG at half

I have never seen a more perfect encapsulation of boomers in one post. This is art.

indeed

And I always assumed most of the posters here that aren't obvious boomers were Gen X tbh. I loved growing up Gen X. I feel like we got the best of everything

I'm a proud member of Gen X myself but I have to admit that far too many of our older brethren are starting to sound a LOT like boomers these days (and unfortunately voting that way as well).

Nope. Too much.

I agree with this statement

30 percent three shooter. What do you expect. He gets his points chunking up 20 plus shots a game.

[Strategic]

I'd rather be a Boomer than a Millenial.

Grew up with the best music and best TV shows 1960s and we played all day outside. We didn't sit around inside playing video games. We were always playing sports outside.

Sounds about like my childhood 60’s/70’s. After school or summer, only reasons I was ever inside was I was in trouble or I was eating. lol. Loved mowing the neighborhood yards and making a few bucks of my own.

Not necessarily. It's a Maga throw away word. They don't even actually know what it means.

Kings fans on Reddit fed up and done with Fox after their blowout loss to OKC

Spurs lose a heartbreaker without Wemby while Vasselline and Sochan play like for the second consecutive night.

The time is now.
