    Not completely sold on Young tbh

    It's his 7th season and THIS season is the only that he is able to shoot @ 40% from deep (34% from deep in his career). His numbers in the playoffs are truly disappointing and his contract is too long and too BIG for a tweener.

    If SA trades scraps (say Nando, Bonner, Ayers,etc) for him, I am fine with the trade. But giving up the farm to get him would be a mistake IMO.
    It's important to remember though that all his numbers this year are essentially being done in the spurs system.

    Young is a downgrade from Boris, and upgrade from Danny. You do the math on who should be traded.

    Diaw is a way better playmaker than Young and is very close to the big 3.. but Young is younger. Giving up Bonner or de Colo and a pick is a very tough trade.

    I'm with the rest of you guys. Diaw has proven to be a valuable 3rd big on the team. Why roll the dice on another 3rd big at best who also has a worse contract? I know that Young could spell Leonard for some minutes at the 3, but Leonard should be playing over 38 minutes in the playoffs anyway.

    Karl said Smith has “a skill that championship teams need” and suggested that he might be better off with a team of veterans such as the Spurs or Heat.

    “There’s that possibility,” Karl said. “I think right now that’s the position if I was J.R.’s agent [I would take]. I would be looking at a culture where there would be more peer pressure.”

    Karl also said the Spurs have been interested in Smith in the past. Smith was a free agent over the summer and signed a three-year, $18 million contract with the Knicks.

    “I know San Antonio has always liked J.R. Smith and I know they’ve thought about bringing him in,” Karl said. “San Antonio doesn’t make a lot of mistakes.”

    Seriously look at the West, there's no big team anymore, Splitter is getting traded for a SF.

    Never in my life have I seen someone who was being made fun of think the jokes about them are funny. Also, don't you ever speak about beating a cat in my presence. Dead or otherwise.

    Some of us can laugh at ourselves, though. Usually requires intellect, tbqh, fwiw, IMHO.

    Honestly, I wouldn't mind if Splitter was traded. I know many point to his defense and how useful he was against the Grizz and Lakers last season, but we won't be facing those teams in the postseason and his frequent injuries worry me. We could make due without him.

    I'm expecting a De Colo for a second rounder.

    If we trade for Lebron and he wants #50... do we give it to him?

    Portland, Golden State, Los Angeles, Minnesota and Phoenix aren't big enough for you?

    No flipping way. I wouldn't give 50 to Jordan in his prime time warped onto our team. #50 stays in the rafters for all hypothetical trades.

    Young would be fine with me, as long as it's only for the package of expirings and a 1st round pick, tbh..

    I don't want the Spurs to give up Diaw or Green..

    Let's go ahead and talk playoffs because that's all that really matters...

    Minnesota and Phoenix will not do anything in the playoffs even if they make it. Splitter usually gets outplayed by Jordan. His defense isn't needed against Lopez. I will give you Golden State though, he might be needed against them, but I feel that Young could prove to be more valuable in a series against them.

    When I say big I mean double towers kind of big...

    Their PFs can all be guarded by Boris... The Clips are the only one where Splitter could arguably do a better job than Boris who is the best against face up bigs (while Tiago is better at post D).

    The Spurs could easily lose to the Wolves if Love and Pek run wild. Splitter was the best big against the Clippers last time. And Tiago usually guards the opponent's best big. Duncan is not suited to guard Aldridge or Ibaka anymore.
