...probably my favorite shtick right now.

Spurs are not going to trade West after he took a huge discount to sign with them that is something weasels like Cuban or Tom Rivers does. Not "the Spurs way". They are not trading for any of these guys.

I forget exactly who you are.... oh... now I recall... the guy who said Jonathon Simmons would amount to nothing.

I think West is getting the hang of thing. Plus, his salary is next to nothing. So I don't expect him being traded.

So many ty takes in the last page

[cutewizard]

How about Noah???

anyone wants him in us???

[cutewizard]

Noah in the second unit of the Spurs would be awesome

Putting aside the fact that I never said that, it's pretty hilarious you would call out someone on a take when you fingered your own asshole repeatedly after we signed Jimmer.

Your lack of faith, in Jonathon Simmons, I've always found disturbing. Hope to see you making your confessions the next time you visit the vicarage.

he was also all over Austin Daye's nuts too iirc. He must have a fetish for 15th men/D League scrubs.

You're really the last guy who wants to have past bad takes serve as some sort of disqualifier.

I think for the long run, and considering he will finish his contract with us for sure. Pau Gasol for Boris Diaw will make a lot of sense, mainly because he gives us a real C to play in all situations.

For me if it´s doable it´s a no brainer, while he is no Diaw, Pau is a good passer, good post player, able defender and has proved to be worth even at his age.

While Diaw at 7.5 million 3 years is a good contract that may turn out not so great, Pau at 7.5 for 2 years is a great one.

You don't trade the most clutch playoff shooter on the team who also happens to be the best passing bigman on the team and a heck of an offensive post presence, for Soft Gasol who would rather take a contested fadeaway than back his man in.

Pau will opt out this summer and could very well get a multi-year deal starting at 12M+. Diaw's contract is less than 50% guaranteed next year and completely unguaranteed in the last year. Whatever arguments you may make for a Diaw/Pau swap, their respective contracts do not support those arguments.

[Agloco]

We could offer Bonner, Mccallum, and West for him.

I don't honestly believe that the Spurs would do West like that.

Pretty much this. Junk in, junk out.

LMA has been a disappointment for a max player. If he weren't a max player, I would say that he's doing very well. But he's a max player and I expect a lot better play from him. Right now, the way he's playing, Gasol would be just as good a player. Not great, but good enough.

Gasol is a player option.... so Spurs can be on Durant sweepstakes only if Gasol opts out.

You really want to hinge your entire offseason on IF Durant comes to SA. We already have a top 3 SF in the game already, and after a year in the system, LMA will most likely look like his normal self (or very close to it). Thank God you're not making decisions for the Spurs.

All of his takes are just god awful. We have by far and away the 2nd best team in the league, Aldridge has been way better than advertised as a defender, he's getting more comfortable on the offensive end (just dropped 26 & 13 on Griffin), and this re wants to get rid of him in year 1, pick up the corpses of Gasol and Noah (Duncan would have too much responsibility on D, which would make him less effective), and hinge these moves entirely on the HOPE that Durant signs with us, which will never happen since we already have Kawhi who will only get better.

Diaw is arguable the best playmaker in the entire team. Sure, he takes a break too often in the regular season, but his contributions are vital.

I wouldn't want to pull that kind of a trade.

1. You're not guaranteed Pau for 2 years. He has an opt out, so you should really pick your player return as if he were a partial season rental.

2. He's no more fond of playing center that Aldridge is.

LMA has a lot of promise when he was signed. Yet, we don't know if he can take it to the next level. The verdict is still out.

Just saying this is an intriguing option Gasol and Noah (2014 DPOY) for a max player that may not (*speculation*) play to expectations. LMA is playing so poorly that he's doing worse than Gasol. LMA numbers just show that he's not delivering as advertised.

Pau Per is 20.56
Noah Per is 15.03
Aldridge Per is 19.77
West Per is 15.86

Number say that Pau and Aldridge are about the same this season. So just saying that a Pau/Noah vs Aldridge trade may not be so ludicrous after all.

Aldridge is 30. Gasoft is 35. Only one of them can be a cornerstone going forward, and it ain't Gasoft. Consider Noah a burnt out corpse from too many years of high minutes in the Thibs system. He's done.

Except PERs don't factor in defense, Pau is a liability on PnRs like Tim.

Why in the would the Bulls make this deal? They could get Markeiff for peanuts if they were seeking a smallball PF/C. Pau isn't a salay dump player, he has value.
