Not sure how credible they are, but man I hope this happens.
2014 WCF when Perkins stepped up to Diaw's face and wanted to fight him.I don't see how any Spurs respect that .I can't stand Perkins. I remember that year he shoved Tim when he got made and Tim just went forward and laughed, dude is a bum. Lorbek, what happened to him? One of their picks overseas you never see, damn. Lin is available right? I remember reading on that one today and someone said interest was there but have no clue.
Not many options
Nate Wolters is playing for our SL team in Vegas. I seem to recall him being somewhat decent in Milwaukee a while back. If he impresses, could possibly see us going after him.
Ehh, seems shaky at best. Article says West would consider the Cavs if they could offer more money, but Cleveland can offer him more than we can. IIRC they have the mini MLE, which is ~$3.3 million. The most he'd get here is $2.8 million, and that's only if we don't use the room exception on Manu.
He is a player, dirty and an ugly bas . I will pass.
What about Darius Morris as the 3rd PG. Very similar to CoJo. Defensive minded, long, and good slasher.

Ginobili-Delfino-Scola... all Argie bench, tbh
Thanks for posting.
Weird. Article says Cavs can offer Midlevel exception, but he wants more money. Yet, he's leaning towards the Spurs (who can't even offer that).
You beat me to it and said it better anyway.
Don't think Jameer is realistic. Wolters ability to stick will depend on his jumper. We already know he can't defend. You can't play for Pop if you're bad at both.
Agree Cagney. When I saw his name pop up I felt a little sick to my stomach. Send him back to Beaumont to rot with Jackson
west would be a good get, but not a really important one... Diaw is already the backup 4. it would be nice to add west, but does nothing to alleviate our need for a backup C
I like Miller at the point. A nice, smart, gritty old point guard who would be a perfect insurance point who wants a le before he retires.
Big no to Andre Miller. We'll already have one slow-as-molasses guy in Kyle Anderson, last thing we need is another one. Miller/Manu/Anderson...no thanks.
I also read on the interwebs that West isn't interested in the Cavs as much because they have 3 elite bigs... that's apparently one reason why the Cavs floated a Varejao-Joe Johnson trade...
where is chris quinn these days
As much as West is about winning les now, I'm sure he wants to play as well. Not sure he'd get any time behind Lebron, Love, Thompson, and Mozgov.
Hopefully he retires soon.What is sad man is Anderson is young and you can't teach speed, he is slow as f... I doubt he amounts to crap honestly unless he really works on his game and strengths.Good lord NO!!!!!! Not even an option. No clue where he is though.

There are slow players that can play, but unfortunately in the NBA, especially at a position like SF or PG you can get burned on defense almost every time. His lack of speed could be a killer no matter how good of a player he is. Hopefully he can figure out a way around it to still be affective? I'm also not sure what position he should be trying to play in the NBA as probably his two strongest positions (PG/SF), you just can't be slow in the the NBA to play.
Pop would turn Darrell Arthur into a great 3/D player
I can see 2 possibilities, but both seem very unlikely
- Spurs salary dump diaw to get West
- Duncan has agreed to take the vet min, and they can give West what was expected for Duncan (around $6M, more if the salary cap is superior to what was expected)
Not worth mentioning. Diaw isn't going anywhere.
Losing Diaw to get West seems treading water at best. Not going to happen.
It is sightly possible that Tim will take the minimum, but as you say, very unlikely. More likely the reporter or his source doesn't have the facts straight.
I don't think this is a huge deal.
Make some reasonable assumptions, that:
Manu comes back on the exception:
Luck into West(Way bigger role here than Cleveland, him and Manu have one getting Room, one gets Min )
Tavares in the Splitter deal( A reasonable return, though uncertain and means TD earns less), and
LJC forces his way on.
That's probably the best case scenario, though all the items are reasonable. If you do those:
Duncan/West Tavares - If not, go for Withey/ Aldrich etc as a C, or keep Lalanne as a Small ball C.
LMA/Diaw/LJC
Kawhi/Anderson - Release, then resign Reggie Williams
Green/Manu (???) - As above
Parker/Mills (???) - Wolters, Sloan,
Missing some guard depth at 3rd PG and the SG position. Not a huge playoff issue, just need to soak up minutes. Guessing you can find PG's/SG's who want a minimum NBA deal, and the Spurs will be one of the better minimum options. Spurs can also leave options open for buyouts later.
Taverez just signed with the Hawks, i was under the impression that they would keep him.
I think three second rounders for Splitter is more likely.
Atlanta has Washington's in '16 (probably in the late 40s)
They also have Miami's and Brooklyn's 2nd rounders in '17
If that happens, the Spurs would have 5 second rounders in the next two seasons.
