Scheduling convenience more than anything.
It's not worth the argument with such fragile minds.
Scheduling convenience more than anything.
The Cavaliers, Mavericks, Lakers, Raptors, Spurs, Grizzlies and Nets are among the teams interested in Luol Deng, sources tell Aggrey Sam of CSNChicago.com.
Can't see the interest being serious. The Spurs don't have a spot for a fifth starter-caliber wing.
Plus, the buyout market could be one of the best ever at the three with Butler, Ariza, World Peace and maybe even Pierce and AK available.
Your right. I'm probably just over ambitiously reading into any activity at this point in the hopes of it being a sign of something positive to come
We need another wing defender to help Kawhi. Playing Manu/Marco/Green at 3 is not a good option.
We struggled against Rockets because they are loaded with 6-7 to 6-9 wing players who can shoot 3s.
One possible trade partner could be Denver.
One player we could look at is Chandler (good defensive player that can shoot the three).
If the fo thinks he's worth a draft pick, I think we could have him for a package of Bonner+De Colo+draft pick...(De Colo could find more playing time there and play with another franch guy in Fournier).
Denver is not going to compete for the le this year and, considering next draft, they could be tempted to lose some more games so to be more involved in the draft lottery (they also have the knicks pick).
Chandler has a more than decent contract, that could fit in our long time strategy...
They just said that andrew bynum is up on the trade block and they want to get it done before january 7th. they talked that he hasn't meshed with his teammates very well. I know it would be a gamble but what if they are selling low to get rid of him? they don't want his huge contract on the books next year.
Bynum better not go to the Heat.
Bynum wanted out of crappy Cleveland so he acts up, looking to get dealt to a contender. Wouldnt he surprised if a team took a chance the contract is pretty cheap
I agree, but I'm still bothered by derrick williams leaving minessota asked for anything .... so little and I think he would have been excellent in spurs
Imagine if it would have cost us only Bonner and a pick or Bonner + De colo or Ayres lol....
Idea to get Amir Johnson :
Celtics get : Splitter
Raptors get : Bonner + Boston 2015 picks + Spurs 2014 pick
Spurs get : Johnson + Wallace
Duncan Diaw
Johnson Diaw
Kawhi Wallace
Green Beli Gino
TP one of the scrub PG
All a sudden Duncan has two great low post scorers to play with him and both are pretty mobile... And Kawhi gets a backup...
Exactly what I was thinking. They could certainly use him against Hibbert and co.
Bonner is getting a legacy deal at the end of this season, he's not going anywhere
That 6 million gaurentee is not hard to sell with the potential he could bring to the heat. Joel Anthony and another bench scrub could make the cash work
The most likely scenario for Bynum is: he will be waived before January 7th and then sing a min contract with the contender of his choice (Clippers or Heat according to Bill Simmons).
BTW, a trade that would make an awful lot of sense is Deng for Bynum + pick with Bulls waiving Bynum jsut after the trade.
Bulls will save a lot of luxury tax money and Cavs will get the SF they are desperately looking for.
Hearing he either wants to sign with the Clips or Heat. Either way this is bad news for the Spurs. Damn, this sucks. According to Bill Simmons so not sure if true.
You think Cleveland is ever going to trade with Miami?
Absolutely if it makes sense. They won't cut off their nose to spite their face, no matter how much they posture. People forget that CLE said they would not participate in a sign and trade for Lebron to MIA and we see how that ended.
Duncan and pop need to get off their ass and recruit him. Didn't the celtics (doc kg pierce Allen) do that w Rasheed Wallace?
wouldn't be fair to Ayres
I'm not sure, tbh. They probably did though. And Bynum would be a good backup, even if he is a questionable character.![]()
