Money on Miami nabbing him.
I've always wanted Jason Thompson (heart eyes emoji)
could be packaged together.
The Clippers and Maverickss are also reportedly interested.
I agree with your Ayres trading policy
I will say in a real-talk fashion that I don't want Stauskas much at all. He doesn't fit in what look to be the team's future plans. I'd much rather get the right to swap picks for the next two drafts. However, if a third team was willing to take Nik and give the Spurs a pick, sure.
Ship him off to Philly for a nice draft pick
I doubt they want him. However, if there was a way to combine the SAC swap pick, the Spurs 2017 first and Stauskas into Noel and a high second, yeah I'd do it.

bellineli, cojo, ayers
for
PF Kanter
SG Rodney Hood
i know a lot of you don't like Kanter. But the kid (23 years old) has a very good offensive game and can rebound well. I believe that being in a winning franchise could help him improve defensively. Duncan isn't getting any younger and we need someone who can score in the post. Hood gives us a bench shooter.
Marco gives them a 3 point threat and especially one off the bench. Can be their Manu. Cojo gives them a quality PG right now. Something they don't have. Exum is still raw. And ayers is the backup big they need.
next trade
http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=qhdazoa
Danny green, Boris Diaw
for
KJ Mcdaniels SG
Jerami. Grant PF
second round pick
KJ gives us a defensive wing still to replace green. England can use the offseason to tweak his shot. But at least KJ can make a layup so that is an added bonus. Grant gives us a long athletic backup for Leonard. We can use their second round pick on a big like Robert upshaw C from Washington or dakhari Johnson C of Kentucky. Green is slumping and Diaw is not getting it done. Plus his move makes room for Kanter. And bertans comes over next year to take his spot too.
PG- Parker, mills, anderson
SG- mcdaniels, Manu, Hood
SF- Leonard, grant
PF- Kanter, baynes, bonner
C- Duncan, splitter,

Thompson, anyone?
http://basketball.realgm.com/wiretap...efore-Deadline
I always loved him, although his salary is a bit too hign to make the move.
You lost me here. Why would the Sixers trade for Green, who is a FA to be, and Diaw who may have finally eaten one too many donuts.
And why would we trade away a proven commodity like Green and Diaw for a rookie and a guy who may not fit like Kanter?
If the Spurs still had huge expirings like they have the past few years, I'd've taken on Thompson for an asset. The Kings would have to add a lot of incentive for me to trade a good player for Jason, though.
They weren't traded for Kanter. Marco, cojo, and ayers were.
green gives them 3 point shooting much needed. An expiring contract. And they were rumored to want to trade mcdaniels. Both these guys give them some vet leadership for the year and championship experience for their guys to be around for a year.
I meant swapping Diaw for Kanter in the rotation (not directly trading). If Philly wanted veteran leadership, there are plenty of guys out there that don't cost them assets - KJ is a restricted FA so they at least have a right to match. Green is unrestricted and has zero chance of signing. So give up KJ for 25 games of Green plus disinterested Diaw (we've seen what happens then)? While KJ has regressed considerably since the first month of the season, they're not getting zero return for him.
From our perspective, shipping out two perimeter threats for a guy who's shot 24% from three since December 1st seems like a raw deal. Imagine the floor spacing - would make it impossible to play Tiago and Timmy together.
On Kanter, if the price were just CoJo + contracts and the team had no intention of keeping him past this season then it's something to think about. But Kanter is going to be a long-term project and do you want him clogging up substantial cap space?
Jesus, Spurs fans love scrubs, tbh..
Reminds me of when we were all hyping Mahinmi and wondering why he couldn't get minutes for a West playoff team, let alone a lottery-bound East Orlando team..

Jermaine O'Neal isn't coming back this year. Kinda glad, because I think he could've actually brought some decent defense to Dallas's bench (which they'll need even more if they get Amar'e).
OKC, Sacramento, Chicago, and LAC all have interest in Afflalo. Hopefully he goes to Chicago.
I'm not saying that Baynes isn't useful but considering that he may walk in FA (i'm assuming we'd renounce him and pursue L.A. and Gasol) and there are teams that could afford to add size. If the Spurs could get a rookie scale player by swapping Baynes then I'd be in favor of it. Whether or not they are able to make much of an impact this season. Baynes, essentially, having a no-trade clause drastically reduces an already slim chance that he would be moved.
I agree that the Spurs seldom makes trades unless its by request. I think that the Spurs will be more active on the buyout deadline, where they have the advantage of having more money than teams like the Clips, Cavs, and Mavs to offer ($3.2 million from the Mid-Level). I think they will add atleast one player before its all said and done.
Size can overrated & I agree that production at both positions is more important than actual size. The Spurs are actually a good rebounding team (10th in Total Rebounding Rate and 4th in Defensive Rebound Rate). The Spurs generally do a good job gang rebounding with guards like Green an Manu helping out on the glass. Baynes certainly helps in that area but they don't get killed on the glass if he doesn't play.
Bonner isn't entirely useless, he is constantly spacing the floor , even when he doesn't have the ball or not hitting the ones he does take. Thats something neither Baynes nor Ayers does, and Diaw has been poor at shooting from deep this season. Against certain teams like Memphis, Portland, OKC, and even GSW he could have more of a positive impact than Baynes. Baynes does essentially what Splitter does but is less talented (especially at rim protecting and passing) Diaw is the only rotation PF we have and Duncan has been playing much closer to the rim this season than last because of his poor shooting from mid-range.
I'm surprised Dallas hasn't re-signed Dalembert, maybe that will be on the table now.
It would be pretty difficult for the Clips to nab Afflalo or Chandler without a trade-able first rounder until 2019. They could loosely protect that pick but then they'd have to include a 3rd team or trade either Red or Crawford directly to Denver. Red isn't cheap and Crawford is their 3rd leading scorer.
I was thinking Baynes and Mills for Thompson and Stauskas. They could use Stauskas as trade bait towards the draft or package him with their first and attempt to move up.
S.T. would explode if Ayers and Parker were moved
Not a bad idea though, assuming this includes that pick swap. Karl's addition would probably would complicate any move now.
I really like the idea of moving Parker for Calderon + a pick swap after this season. They'd Add Parker for only $3 or 4 Million more than they would have payed for their pick and Calderon salary and still have $23+ million to add another max player. We'd save around $3 million, have a high pick, clear a ton of future cap and Calderon can be used as trade bait doing the 16-17 season when he will be an expiring deal.

Shams Charania @ShamsCharania
Amar'e Stoudemire has committed to sign with the Dallas Mavericks, league sources tell RealGM.
Look what Danny Green, Patty Mills and Gary Neal did for us.
I saw some tweet saying Jason Thompson with Kings would like to be traded
