Atlanta isn’t trading him to SA for 14. , they may never trade with us again after the Dejounte theft.
I'm totally fine with that, as long as the price to move up is not wild. But if the Spurs draft Harper and Knueppel, I definitely think that spells doom for Vassell, they would desperately need athleticism and defense at the wing (probably more than one) and Vassell should be the first trading chip to land one.

That's kind of my point, it'd take more than 14 to have a chance.
Maybe #13 for Castle?
Atlanta dont trade Risacher.
Just trade Vassell
already a victory
Spurs will never trade Castle. Atlanta would trade Risacher tomorrow if they get their picks back from us.
I would have no hesitation trading 27 back to the hawks for Daniels. Doubt they would though.
why give up overal first pick vs get maybe lotto back.
As I mentioned previously, the Spurs giving up 14, getting rid of the 2026 swap and turning 2027 into a swap favoring Atlanta is what I'd call "Giving the Hawks their picks back". I'm pretty okay with the Spurs doing that for the right price. That price is not Okongwu. I don't know that it's Jalen Johnson or Risacher. But considering the moves the Hawks could make this summer, there are real possibilities.
If you think the Spurs are trading Castle for a late lotto pick, I encourage you to log off the internet for the next couple of years.
because in a regular draft that first pick is like the 10th pick. In this draft Risacher might go anywhere between 12 and 20
Are you on crack?
I wonder though, not that I am in the market for Risacher, because it's a different front office these days and they should be confident that they can put together a trade that works for them.
Agree. Hawks are definitely a team to watch for numerous reasons and because SA has their picks, SA has many paths to being involved IF ATL starts making moves.
Same as HOU with PHX picks, NO with MIL picks etc..
Yep, I think some of these trade are going to be much more complex than the straightforward ones we talk about here.
I’d take Risacher. I doubt those ATL picks would ever be lottery with Trae overachieving, with Jalen and Daniel just going to get better.
Guys. It was ironic. Same level of stupid take Risacher for 14 from Atlanta s perspective as Castle for 13. Dont you get it? I find it funny. Me with my joke on crack but your proposal legit))))))))
So Castle is from very weak draft too?
I am great fan of spurs ( old Dave’s times). same time can find other’s team perspective in potential trades.
How many 1st overal picks were sold after year one?
For future pick? Not sure thing but only estimation that can be high pick? C ‚mon.
All construction of possible trade with Atlanta is not real.
My example ( stupid agree) Castle for #13 shows only how bad this take and your proposal is.
Atlanta picked 1rd 1st overal prospect and is focus improve him.
Any future not sure that top pick can change this plan. Sure bigger trade with all puzles involved maybe is 1% possible.
All yours ideas is only wishfull thinking. Same level as selling Castle for pick/ picks
So same level of stupidy as mine. Only difference is that You are serious.
They overachieved this year, and the pick was still in the lottery.
Yep. And it was one ping pong ball away from gifting us Flagg.
Atlanta have to make a choice on Trae this summer - either extend him or trade him. Neither option looks great for them but if they do nothing he can walk next summer, so it’ll be their defining decision for how they’re building going forward.
maybe you should learn how to read english first. Where did I say we should trade for Risacher? I said we could get him if we wanted to. My ATL targets are Okongwu and Jalen Johnson. And it's not for future picks, it's for Atlanta's OWN picks.
Hawks GM Onsi Saleh used to work for the Spurs. So a deal with ATL can certainly happen. And yes, Castle is from a weak draft. He'd be in the top 10 in this draft class, maybe even slightly out of it. Kon Knueppel territory.
Also Ainge is trying to trade his entire roster. Like I said, Utah might be the 3rd team in the KD deal. Tell me again all my trade ideas are wishful thinking after the draft, cause we are 100% getting Durant and that won't be the only trade we will make.

Incoming: KD
Outgoing: Fox, Castle and Socham
Works in the trade machine. Do it RC!
Fat Luka and 40-year old LeBron ain't gon help you against Wemby/KD/Castle/Fox
Brook Lopez is gone from the Bucks. Maybe a reunion with Mitch is possible?
That said, I’m not expecting the roster to look the way it does now. The team is likely to retain Kevin Porter Jr.2 and most everyone I’ve spoken to assume Brook Lopez is gone.
