Spurs trade ideas

[mystargtr34]

You thinking RJ + 9 for Devin + 14?

I’m doing that in a heartbeat if I’m the Spurs. Don’t think the Raps would.

RJ is no world beater but he’s better than Devin imo and contracts are similar. And he fits better being able to play the 3 with his size.

[mo7888]

You do this if there is a target in mind. Issue is I don’t have a sense of RJ’s game vis-a-vis Dev. Is Dev’s descending contract appealing to Toronto, who has cap issues?

Yeah...the 2 year shorter contract opens up a few more options for us and the descending figure on Devin's should appeal to them.

[mo7888]

No I‘m thinking Keldon, Branham and 14 for Barrett and 9.

Either Keldon or Barnes. Now Barrett has improved a lot on the Raptors and his stock still dropped. His 3-point shooting is ok. He‘s only shooting 35%, but on high volume. What worries me is the 63% FT shooting. He made huge leaps playmaking wise.

Raptors want to move him because they are only 9 million below the tax. Question is what is their asking price? It should be low, but I think we might have to throw in a future first.
This would be a way to grab Maluach.

There's no world where I'd give a future 1st to move up 5 spots.

me neither. The first would be for Barrett basically. As I said I have no clue what they want. Maybe 2nd rounders get the job done.

I don’t think it’s Vassell. He doesn’t save them salary. They could just waive Branham. Buy out Barnes. And the trade down saves them money too.

I am still beating the drum for Herb Jones, hopefully is injury drops his price, but an elite defensive presence is needed on the team, he would be who we would put on the SGA's and Luka's of the world and not worry about his defensive effort affecting what he gives us on offense but any offense we get from him would be seen as a bonus. Herb Jones would alleviate the need for out core players to possibly get in foul trouble covering the other teams best scorer. Maybe #38 and some future draft capitol, or maybe Sohan can get it done but tbh if you were to tell me we could get Herb Jones with #14, I would be surprised if we could land a player as good that could contribute as fast as Herb would.

Barrett is literally the exact archetype the Spurs don't need. Big contract, high usage/low efficiency empty calories type and middling defender.

Sure, his 3/2 frame would fit better than Vassell's 2/3 frame at the 3, but that and the gap between 9 and 14 is not enough to offset the rest.

It gets them a little future cap space wiggle room. If they need more now you might have to absorb another contract like ochai. The fit is better for both too, as you said.

I thought we were using the other thread for spurs offseason talk. Did i misread

If you are referring to the NBA Offseason Thread... that is intended more for just general, around the league offseason updates - not just Spurs.

[RC_Drunkford]

Wasn‘t Barrett managed by Klutch Sports before he got traded to Canada?

[SpursFan86]

I really think the only wings we need are 3&D, low usage types. With our guard rotation + Wemby, it just seems unnecessary to add any more players that need the ball in their hands to really be valuable. Hard pass on Barrett tbh.

[scott]

No I‘m thinking Keldon, Branham and 14 for Barrett and 9.

Does Barrett have warrants out for his arrest in Canada? Why would TOR do this?

Why not just trade Keldon, Branham and 14 for Giannis?

Raptors have 178 Million on the books before the draft for a bunch of mediocre players. Luxury tax line is 187. They already have Barnes and Ingram. They don’t need Barrett. I just don’t know what they want in return.

Well they sure as don't want Keldon and Branham, and certainly not enough to drop back 5 spots for the privilege.

[RC_Drunkford]

That‘s why I‘m saying they might want future draft capital added to that. I don’t expect any team to value our garbage. I just hope this ain‘t the move the Spurs want to make while letting KD go to the Rockets. I might destroy my TV on draft night if this happens.

I wonder how some of you people make it through life without going bankrupt on daily basis, tbh.

I wonder the same thing about you people who somehow have Harper pegged as some future franchise player but in real life he couldn't even get Rutgers to a .500 record.

You're making an early candidacy for the worst spurstalk user of the season, tbh.

[mo7888]

Fox, Harper
Castle, NAW
RJ,
Santi or Collins/Sochan
Wemby/Maluach

That's not bad at all... and you successfully shipped out Vasselldon in one offseason... but this wouldn't be my favorite offseason. Wouldn't hate it though.

[tbdog]

Sorry, RJ Barrett? No way. He is a 2 playing the 3. He is a so so shooter. Below avg defender. Needs self creation.

[bigzak25]

to set the record straight, this means you wouldnt still trade for Giannis

I trust the Spurs to do what they think is best.

[spurraider21]

Mavs extended gafford so we can stop pretending they will trade him away for cheap now

Davis has been very clear about not liking playing C and Dallas will go out of their way to placate him

[T Park]

I’m doing that in a heartbeat if I’m the Spurs. Don’t think the Raps would.

Doing that to get Barrett and then drafting Malauch would be a of a move.

100% doubt Toronto would do it however

[CGD]

Does Barrett have warrants out for his arrest in Canada? Why would TOR do this?

Why not just trade Keldon, Branham and 14 for Giannis?

I think there is a trade for Barrett if the Spurs want it. I definitely don’t think it involves #9 though.

[CGD]

I still think the Cavs are a key team to watch. Spurs could get involved in basic framework like this:

Team X: Garland
CLE: Vassell
SAS: Player

[DPG21920]

SA Gets: Claxton + Cam Johnson

BKY Gets: Vassell + Keldon + Branham + 14 + 5 2nds

If BKY views Vassell as equal to Claxton, does Keldon + 14 + 5 2nds get Cam?
