No need, Parker can just assume more playmaking duty to replace Manu.
If manu decides to retire next year, I wouldnt mind fournier replacing him for the third scoring guy.
He is RFA next year but 14per should make orlando hesitate in matching imo. Hoping Tobias Harris stays with orlando so can chuck and lower fournier value
- Very good penetrator
- Great off the ball movement
- Servicable D
- Decent three point shooter
- Age 22-23...
His ability to penetrate and willingness to pass is perfect for a third guy...
I mentioned him in possible trade for last year...
Boris and Tony, do us a favour and glrecruit this kid

He is a quicker Anderson
You mean ka and Simmons,, summer league champs, becoming starters.
This is a good thread but it's waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay to early to plan for next year when there is so much going on now.
bob voulgaris tweeted about how good he is this year and how his game reminds him of young manu.
He is not as crafty on the drive and an inferior passer, but hr is 22
manu is also a good defender. even now.
Nah. If the Spurs want him, they have to make the trade this season. Something like Anderson (sorry SAGirl ) and a small asset may work, though the Magic seem to really want more shooting.
Run with Butler as the situational backup three, with Fournier getting third-wing minutes and Manu getting the rest. Then, if Manu hangs them up next season, have Leonard and Green as the starters and Fournier, and one or Bertans, LJC or a draft pick as the backup three. Maybe bring in a vet like Butler (or just re-sign Rasual).
Would kill the team's 2017 free-agent prospects, though.
You're not replacing a HoF talent with any youngster, tbh... that said, I would take Beli back over Fournier for that role...
Given Fournier's production so far, that offer for him seems laughable.
And please for God's sake DO NOT GOOGLE HIS LAST NAME.
No really don't do it. I'm warning you.
DON'T. DO. IT
he has one of the top 3 nicknames, right now, tbh..
oh god it's almost worse than blue waffle.
I don't know if the Magic even want to keep him. They have Oladipo, Hezongia and Harris at the wings already. Getting a cheap player who can is a play-maker doesn't seem all that bad. I don't think I'd add a first-rounder to Anderson for Fournier (the dude is really streaky), but I might be persuaded to give up one of Bertans and LJC in the deal. More than that, and you just ride with Anderson/rookie SG in the second unit.
If they want to play Harris at the wing, they'll probably want to trade Fournier for a PF that can start now.
I haven't really watched him, except spot minutes and didn't notice anything about him other than his hair, so I am indifferent.
That said, if the Spurs were to acquire him, and he's a nice young passer, I would probably end up loving him...
I do love Anderson for us down the road, but he's undeveloped.
I am cautious in getting excited about assets for next year bc everyone will be in the market for a huge payday, and somehow I don't expect we will be able to get through the market with someone real nice... (but maybe you don't mean Fournier is real nice)...
I can't see the Magic trading him for Anderson. Anderson is really kind of an acquired taste and everyone and their mother passed up on him in the draft. That said, he is intriguing, that size and length have turned out better defensively than people thought, and that was one of the big knocks against him in the draft. If scouts thought he would have been able to defend, I doubt he would have been available at 30 where we got him. Still he is unproven, Pop would have to play him more to increase his trade value, but they seem to be bringing him along slowly.
If he could shoot a decent 3, I am sure there would be a market for him, but in that case would Pop really trade him? Heck, last year I thought CoJo might have been able to fetch us something, and we really were not going to be able to retain him. But I see that Pop really wanted to keep CoJo unless it was absolutely impossible to keep him, which it was.
You made me do it
Hadn't watched him play before this year. Aside from those two good games, he's looked pretty awful.
Fournier is a good prospect tbh... I thought he would be a bust in the nba but he is quite serviceable and is improving so yeah I would not mind another Frenchie in a Spur jersey
If getting Fournier means Brazil remains a SpursFan, you pull the trigger imo.
Could gay haters here stand him. He is the most gigolo looking player in the current NBA. I guess he has that going for him.

The Magic really like him, they gave up Affalo after he had a boarder-line All-Star season to get him despite already having Oladipo on the roster & drafting Payton on that day. They might give up Andrew Nicholson for Kyle but not Fournier when they already have Gordon/Harris/Hezongia who are all capable of playing the wing position.
The only reason they might trade Fournier is if they fear that they can't re-sign him.
They probably cant, but i am guessing they are committed on him otherwise the trade would have not happened. I think anywhere from 12-14 should put enough pressure on the magic...but i am not not sure if his potential is worth that money..8-10 and an expected cap rise in 17 would be nice bit thats easily matchable.
