Easy there seabiscuit, we still got a long season ahead of us.
Hopefully, Pop isn't planning on bringing a stiff like Rasho to replace Timmay.
Candidate #1: Joakim Simon Noah
I feel like POTFO can get Noah for a bargain b/c he's a prime "buy low" candidate ala Tyson Chandler circa 2009-10.
-On offense: He can play high-low w/ LMA or dribble hand off w/ Kawhi
-On defense: He can guard mobile bigs like Draymond, rebound at an elite level, protect the rim in a similar manner to Tiago
-Intangibles: High IQ, fierce compe or, high motor
Issues:
-Mul ude of injuries (Tim/Manu have had a solid post-prime careers & Camby/Chandler had a rival after breaking down during their primes)
-Confidence has been shot (Pop did wonders for Diaw)
-An average post defender (LMA is actually a decent post defender)
-Can't shoot, not great at diving to the rim, no postup game basically Tiago who can dribble drive but is an average "roll man"
Forget Batum, Porky/Fat Boy should be recruiting Joakim if he can be had for 10-12 mill. Hopefully, the doesn't sign w/ the Worriers if they trade Bogut.
Candidate #2: Ifeanyi Festus Ezeli-Ndulue
-Not much to say besides he's the best rated rim protector in the NBA, has a decent jump hook & can score on lobs ala DeAndre.
Will most likely get a max contract from someone like the Mavs but would be a good way to cuck the Worriers if they can't trade Bogut.

I think ultimately the team will learn how to play without Timmy.
I like both. Festus Ezeli is younger. Noah hasn't been the same and has had injury after injury. Maybe Thibs did run him to the ground, but I definitely like him and I believe he's the fiercest compe or of the two.
The rim isn't going to protect itself (Tony was running a layup line against LMA during the 2014 series)
No one. SA s are cooked geese. Just wondering what they'll look like culture, name and personality wise when they're moved to a different city as once they start sucking ass for real the AT&T center will be barren as a brick as the fans will choose extra greasy tacos and Whataburger over their local sub-.500 pro sports franchise.
Marc Cuban & the Blazers are going to offer Ezeli the max so the Spurs will be priced out. Joakim is in the same situation as Diaw w/ the Bobcats & he has the French connection to make it all work.
Hibbert is going to be the consolation prize.
I agree and I much prefer Joakim to Hibbert. We need someone. Boban isn't going to be it.Marc Cuban & the Blazers are going to offer Ezeli the max so the Spurs will be priced out. Joakim is in the same situation as Diaw w/ the Bobcats & he has the French connection to make it all work.

Might as well trade Leonard to a team that has a real shot at winning. Iggy is getting older, so Leonard might be a good pickup for the Dubs if they are unable to retain Harrison Barnes.
Start Kyle at center, right?
Healthy Noah is probably a best case scenario if Tim retires. We need a defensive player that also functions in the offense. He can pass well enough to be a decent fit. Also even his okay ability to dribble drive would be a very welcomed component to our offense given what we give up in dribbling with LMA and Green.
Kawhi is a very good at slashing to the paint off dribble hand-offs courtesy of Tim/Diaw so Joakim/Kawhi could be a decent two-man game on BOTH ends of the floor.
Im starting to strongly suspect you are Thread. Its the only thing that can explain your completely goty posts
The same guy who replaced Kareem, Shaq and Jordan, IMO.
Boogie.
LMA was second in the NBA n post defense behind Splitter last season, if i'm not mistaken.Hopefully, Pop isn't planning on bringing a stiff like Rasho to replace Timmay.

Ezeli is going to make a ton of money next season. He doesn't run like a big, very mobile, gets up and down the floor with ease.
I like the idea of Noah but his injury history is scary.
Hibbert seems like as good of an option, despite his lack of mobility and mental weakness. He can still protect the rim and be effective in reasonable minutes starting. something like 27 mpg.
I suggested Noah in the offseason. I'm not sure if theyd get him though..he was clowning tim a couple years back with the suck a free throw. He also is injury prone.
If Tim retires, wed lose our only dribble hand guy, rim protection and paint protection so it does make sense to look at him.
He just kinda looks done in multiple situations though.
I say we get Al Jefferson. I could only imagine the comedy that would erupt in this place since Big Al's defense is terrible.
I strongly dislike Noah, tbh
Not to replace Tim's attributes, but FA bigs I'm interested in(no order):
Darrell Arthur
Ian Mahinmi
Zaza Pachulia
Festus Ezeli
Trevor Booker
sucking gif comes to mind. Noah is a mental midget. I didn't wanna post this earlier but he's a got.I strongly dislike Noah, tbh

Damn, If timmy is retiring they should just trade. The spurs are policed with Richard Jefferson 2.0 who never rolls and is a rim protector.I strongly dislike Noah, tbh

Maybe they get injury prone splitter back or they trade in draft night im not sure but none of those players can elevate the spurs to. Contender status.
Uh...wasn't LMA supposed to be the replacement for Tim?
I wanted to get our backcourt upgraded last year, but everyone said LMA was too good to pass up because he can ultimately replace Tim. So...uh...LMA?
Trade LMA and green for cousins
Al Horford tbh
