I'm not sure what I'd give for Herb though. I do like him, but he's hard to value right now.
Yeah, clearly the Hawks are trying to do everything in their power to avoid the lottery this season and hand us a top pick. If they're going to do that, then I'd rather have the sure thing in Trey than a maybe shot at a lotto pick. I'd take Herb as a consolation prize, but those two guys aren't in the same league.

Yeah. The Hawks picks would definitely still be off limits. I might be willing to do a protected FRP, but I doubt NOP goes for that. Herb's a 3&D who actually doesn't really 3 all that well. His shooting last season seems like more of an outlier than a progression.
Spurs: Murphy
Hawks: Ingram
Pels: ATL picks from Spurs ?
Darn, so are the Hawks really trying to get Ingram? I wonder if the Spurs still had interest? Would you guys take BI if the picks traded have some protection on them?
What year would be the picks they'd give us? What protections?
I'd do Vassell for BI and picks coming from NOP. Clears salary and gives us a better player for the rest of the year. Then I just let BI walk.
it'd have to be legit pick compensation, though, and i dont see NOP doing that. we may not like him but imo vassell is still seen as an asset around the league, on a somewhat declining contract. still 24 years old as well. im not looking to just functionally amnesty vassell
Ingram makes no sense. He plays with the ball in his hands and is not a catch-and-shoot player nor a defender. And you'd have to ship out Vassell + fillers or Barnes + Keldon.
I agree that he is still likely seen as a legit asset. My "BI and picks" wasn't meant to be a smart ass comment. I'd be talking like a real FRP. Could be way in the future, like 2031 after NOP thinks they'll be competing again. Maybe they could view Devin as part of their next core. DJM/Devin/Murphy/Flagg/Missi kind of thing.
This is all my own version of Spurs FanFiction, but just thinking out loud.
Well the Hawks need to send someone out too. Thats the catch.
vassell + branham gets it done
i dont like the idea though
I don't think it's a good strategy to try & rush things. We've already had our big move, let's see how that pans out. Maybe go after a cheap 5 and that's all.
There will be better opportunities this summer or later.
Wouldn't have to send any additional filler. BI for Vassell works straight up. Also saves the Pels an additional $6.7MM this year, though they no longer need to get under the tax line.
I'm actually in almost total agreement with this, I just like playing Fantasy GM. All of these things I'm suggesting, I don't think the Spurs would actually do nor do I think they necessarily even should. Just having fun.
With that said... we do have a glut of wings (none of which are really that great) that we'll need to do something about eventually, but this summer would be fine.
I can’t see the spurs making another trade. They’ll probably monitor the fit between Fox and our “core” players and see if one of them is a worse fit than the other ones.
You mean they can't resend out their picks.
Well, the main reason I bought it up was because wasn't it reported that the Spurs inquired about BI? Who do you think the Spurs were willing to trade for him?
It would have been Collins and KJ in a salary dump.
yeah the main trades i coulda seen them make was
- moving CP3 if he has indicated he doesnt want to come off the bench for an aspiring play-in team
- moving for a backup C that wouldnt cost us a FRP or rotation player
doesnt seem to be any smoke. but the lack of press conference from Wright so far probably means they're still at least exploring
The Spurs have already won this trade season.
No sense trying to gild the lily only to undercut what's been accomplished.
^ welp, there goes my hope of getting Sidy back this summer once the Kangs cut him. At least he'll get his shot in DC
I don't think Reaves nor Knecht really fit with Luka. What about this if the Lakers miss out on bigger fish.
Spurs- Austin + Dalton + Rui
LA- Paul + Keldon (or Barnes)+ Wesley + 3 2nds
Do we have some intimate knowledge of horrific criminal behavior by someone in the Lakers' braintrust?
