A trade that might happen with Washington is De Colo and Baynes for Vesely or De Colo for Singleton. That's the best realistic options.
Thinking more Jameer Nelson.

Good points, but I agree with the sentiment of Chinook. The idea that acquiring a significant player, on a long term contract, should be a non-starter, is nonsense. The notion that they'll be able to sign a player better than Smith is beyond foolish. Barring a re-build (which is unlikely), the only chance they'll have to acquire said player, is if they buy low on one of them.
Turner's obviously not as good, but that's the point I was making with him yesterday. If they want to remain as compe ive as possible post Duncan/Ginobili, they're going to have to be realistic and take a chance on someone like that.
Singleton was noted for his defense coming into the league, that coupled with his size makes him an interesting project, but projects aren't what the Spurs need.
If we make a move, it won't be a big one imo. I still think we end up sitting pat. Same , different year.
I like the thought of Singleton. Competent midrange shooter who can defend as well as you can hope for an end of bench player. He a d Cory can trade off as the third defender.
He is indeed a decent defender, but he is not a good midrange shooter.

This season he has better %, but small sample size because of his injuries.
Best case for him is a 3 and D player, like Green. Try to improve his form to shoot corner 3s and take advantage of his size as a defender.
Said that, I wouldn't mind him for Nando.
I see that. He looked much better in summer league play (I believe that's where I saw him). Gave me a false impression. Thanks for the info.
I think he's about the best the team can expect to get. They really only need a backup three for spot minutes and foul trouble. I don't know why people think they really need more than that. If healthy, the top seven are about the best group in the league. If they're not, no trade will help.
He's about the best they can expect to get if all they're willing to give up is crap. If they're willing to actually do right by the big three for once and not be their usual cheap, gun shy selves, then they can do much better.
They don't just need a backup three for spot minutes and foul trouble, they need one who's effectively the fourth big, since they don't have one that's good enough to be in a playoff rotation.
"The Bobcats are looking to shore up their bench depth on the offensive end. Whether at shooting guard or power forward, Rich Cho and company are looking to make moves that fills in holes towards the bottom of the roster. Perhaps they're looking for a legit starting shooting guard who can reliably hit threes (which would be great), but the more likely target is a sharpshooter to come off the bench to help space the floor. And that's fine, assuming they aren't making desperation moves solely for this year's playoffs."

I'm hating that Belinelli signing more and more every day, tbh..
Mills playing well really makes Beli expendable. I still think Beli is good enough to get back an asset or be the best player in a package to grab a legitimate combo-forward. On the other hand, Green, Leonard and Manu being out means Beli's not going anywhere.I'm hating that Belinelli signing more and more every day, tbh
Indeed, it seems like Beli/Ayres was the worst use of the MLE by a team this season.
Remember back when he was signed, posters were saying he was going to be Manu's replacement for years to come? Good times.
I said last month that he's started reminding me of Roger Mason Jr's first season here. And now, he's looking even more Masonesque.I'm hating that Belinelli signing more and more every day, tbh
Hopefully, he can improve on the defensive end and get his offense going again, but as it stands right now, he's an average player that doesn't make much of an impact towards winning games.
I do. I was one of the folks who wasn't happy with the acquisition at all. I know he'll look better on a healthy team, he's definitely making nobody forget about a backup three with the way he's been playing.
I believe Beli needs a superior playmaker like Manu to excel. He has looked more like his previous self the last few weeks because he's not getting the looks he does when Manu is playing with the second unit. Those guys, healthy, were the best second unit playing, arguably.
^ The returns better be pretty fabulous.
WOW. Now that, I didn't expect.

If the Spurs make a 2-for-1 or 3-for-1 trade, Camby would be a solid deep bench pick up. Can't be relied on for many minutes because of health, but at least those minutes would be better than a D-Leaguer's.
Not sure what the Spurs would be looking for if they are willing to deal Leonard. I doubt it's true though sounds like speculation to me. It doesn't really make sense to deal Leonard when we are already rail thin on the perimeter.
Sam Amico would be the media's version of Shannon Brown .. When was the last time he broke a correct story?
That said, I would like the Spurs to trade Manu rather than Kawhi, if at all they had plans to break up the main core.
"But forward Kawhi Leonard could be, provided the returns are fabulous."
Typical quote from someone who has no information at all and throw those infos in the air to see if someone bites. If nothing happens, SA could not get a good return. If something out of nowhere happens, Amico had the info.
There's no losing situation for him. Sam Amico SUX
Lol stupid
