i'm glad we pulled off a typical draft and stash instead of picking somebody up that can help us during the end of the big 3 era. i was fine with jean-charles because i assumed that was a prelude to a busy offseason

11 mil this season for manu/bonner
Goes to show that Manu doesn't believe in the "1 simple price" that Gunn offers..
I LOLed.
Watch him not come over for at least 4 years.
No one available at that point who was going to help.
Can we still do a 3 way trade with a team that is willing to take those contracts that Minnesota won't and thereby pass on the cap space to Minnesota? What's going on with those UTAH rumors?????????
WE NEED AK47. AK47 + Beli = believe again and the team coming back next year believing. Otherwise, this team may just belabor losing in Game 6 during times of adversity next year.
The Spurs could try the ol' Derek Anderson sign-for-scraps-this-summer-we'll-take-care-of-you-next-summer bit but that wouldn't make sense for AK47. The MLE is too small noways for him to take that gamble.
yep. funny how many of his fanboys worried more about his contract or spinning his godawful finals than him screwing the team over again.
If AK is off the table (he may or may not be), why not go after Corey Brewer with a s&t. Neal and CJ for CB. That solves our backup 3 problem. Then maybe paw. Off bonner for something.
It's not that big of a deal. He would have helped, but he's not good enough anymore to break the team up over. We'll just have to see what they do next. There are plenty of other trades out there for them to make, and they have plenty of assets to make them.
Assuming Pendergraph with the room exception, Amnesty of Bonner and Salary dump of some of the guards they can probably get to 4.5 million but I really really really doubt thats an option for AK. I think thats pipe dream territory.
Never been that high on AK personally, tbh...
That kills our prospect PG's.. which we still don't really have a reliable backup yet.
One would think there would be a deal worked out where Minnesota gets Kevin Martin, Spurs get AK47 and OKC gets scraps, picks and a trade exception. And maybe the T'Wolves can shed Ridnour somewhere in the deal if they need encouragement to cooperate.
Maybe I'm missing something but that looks like it'd help all three teams, tbh.
Not breaking up the team by paying Manu a little less and scrapping Bonner or dumping Mills/De Colo who didn't even do anything meaningful this season.
Then swap Corey with de Colo or Mills.
What about a four team trade involving denver/brewer?
lets acquire corey brewer just to stick it to Saunders tbh
I don't mean then; I mean now. If the Wolves are asking for something like Green for AK, I'm glad the Spurs are backing out. AK is only a good pickup if he's added to the Spurs' top 7/8. If any of them besides Neal have to go to bring him in, it's a lateral move at best.
I get the feeling Saunders doesn't want to do AK any favors...
Well damn. I actually thought something could happen on this front, due to the sheer lack of information circulating.
I'm done trying to guess what this FO is going to accomplish. I'm just taking solace in the fact that this team made the Finals this year and, as of now, have at least not gotten any worse.
Though I still haven't a damn clue what all this "8 guards and 1 SF" nonsense is about.
Our front office doesn't seem to the ones backing out.
Also, AK brings more to the table at a position where the Spurs are thin. On the other hand, Green is a good player but the Spurs are deep at that position.
