yeah, I agree with you. Send Ayres and cash along with a couple second/rights to foreign players not named Bertans or Jean-Charles.
I would love to see the Spurs go after Capela with their TPE (Yes, I know that it's highly unlikely the Spurs cut someone for him but still..). He wouldn't make any impact this season but on draft day he was the guy I was holding my breath for and it seemed that he had a draft promise from the Spurs.

Tarik Black seems a decent pick up. Giving up on Daye and getting Black would be worthwhile, methinks.
So, it seems like we could have pretty much use Covington.
Capela would be nice. Maybe Texas three step with Dallas? Forget Rondo, it's all about RJ and Ayers?
The Spurs could use any SF seeing as the only one on the roster is injured. My point wasn't that they shouldn't have gone after Covington when he was available, it was that given the Spurs picked up Daye's contract and didn't have the roster spot they weren't going to go after him. I wasn't a fan of extending Daye, but given they had him on the roster they had no reason and room to pick him up.
Uh, this was over days ago when they cut Black. They're no longer looking to dump a contract to open a roster spot.
Matt Bonner to Steve Kerr for 1st swap?
So with the questions surrounding Leonard and Patty back, when do we start talking about getting something for Joseph instead of letting him walk for nothing?
Joseph/Beli/Daye for Wilson Chandler. Denver is going nowhere and needs a legit option at backup PG...and Chandler has one more year then they have to think about paying him. They could get some assurance that Joseph would re-sign with them. Beli gives them another shooter and Day is filler, obviously. Seems like it takes care of some needs for both teams.

Nah. You just pay Cory next summer and figure out the rest later. The dude is 23. I honestly think the Spurs made a mistake giving a max extension to Parker. They should have kept him, don't get me wrong, but they would have had a good deal of leverage.
If the Spurs want a SF (and they don't really need one, as Anderson is playing well), they should just get one from Orlando. It'd probably just cost them a pick, and that player plus Cory would still count for less on the cap than Chandler would.
Wilson Chandler has been piss poor this season on both ends of the floor. Would be an overkill to get his carcass for Cory who has been very good in Parker's absence. I think the best thing for the Spurs to do is to not overcomplicate things. Parker looks fragile and the more younger bodies, the more it bodes well for a chance to repeat. The Spurs ought to keep Joseph till the season is over.
If they have to change a thing..they might try to prise someone for the Daye-Ayres combo. And then stay pat for the season.
Agree with Chinook. All the Spurs have to do to avoid losing Cory for nothing is extend the QO and make him an RFA.
Also not a Chandler fan. He's a below league average player on a bloated deal.
They have to trade Mills at the end of the season but not sure he's gonna be that easy to move... Shouldn't have resigned Mills in the first place...
Cojo can be signed cheaply for us next summer imho and if you want to get an SF it's not going to be Wilson Chandler.
If he's recovered from surgery and is 80-90% of the player he was last year, he can be moved in a heartbeat. Not that he's likely to get shipped out.
If the spurs trade Cojo, I think it'll be to Toronto or Minny. George got to go home to Indiana. I don't see why they'd choose a different route, unless Cojo has a different team he'd want to play for.
I was thinking the same thing re: trading him to Toronto, but they've got Lowry and Vasquez at the point so it makes little sense for both sides, esp for Joseph in a contract year. Minnesota has LaVine, Rubio, and Mo Williams so it's a bad fit. Market is saturated with point men so guys like Reggie Jackson and Joseph will have some trouble making bank during free agency. The Lakers could use some help at the point, but none of their assets are desirable, and they aren't willing to part with their picks or young assets.
Back to the Trade with orlando, is there a reason why the magic wouldn't pay oquinn? Do they have to pay someone else at the same time?
With Vucevic, Frye, Aaron Gordon up front, plus Tobias Harris(SF/PF), Fournier, Oladipo and Payton as Smalls, O'Quinn doesn't seem too high on their list. Talent in draft this year also seems to be bigs. While they don't want to be young forever, paying everyone on a developing team eventually gets hard.
They could definitely keep him, just not sure how it fits into a long term plan. They've already given $ to Vuc as their Centre, and paying two guys decent money at the same position is iffy.
How would people feel about acquiring Thad Young? He's probably available for a first-rounder. I'd probably rather use the team's limited assets on another player and sign Green from the Toros. Undersized energy bigs are not all that hard to find.
I like Young, but I don't see how they make the numbers work.

True, but I think Lowry and Rubio are pretty injury prone. How about this, Milwaukee or Brooklyn? Hear me out. These teams look playoff bound. Knight is known to have some trouble being a legit point. Williams is a known injury risk. Either team with Cojo should expect to be that much more solid for the playoffs. Both are in the Toronto area. Either team could end up falling short, unexpectedly. That's a nice 1st round pick to have. Cojo and 15 1st to whichever team would give their 1st?
The gap left by a Cojo trade could pretty well be masked by some mad scientist Mills, Beli, Anerdson rotation tweaks. The Spurs could bring in J Green or Cotton. And have a potential lottery pick.
I think Orlando, Charlotte, and Boston could all make turn arounds. Mk and Bk are not playoff locks quite yet.
