2016 NBA Trade Deadline

[Kawhitstorm]

If they want to waive Bonner for a rim protector, Emeka Okafor would be interesting but the guy might have called it a career & Dalembert might be completely washed up at this point.

post more tbh.

it is a very lopsided deal. some posters here think it would've been a terrible trade for us

Lol at "some posters" meaning every poster besides a handful of GNSFs.

Trade sucks, dude. It sucked when Whiteside was an overrated player who would get paid too much to keep. It sucks even more now that Whiteside is an INJURED overrated player who would get paid too much to keep. And for all the improvement that Dragic has shown in the post-season, he's still a net-negative player who's putting up a whopping .87 ppp. It's bonkers you want to pay $37 Million for that combo -- $44 Million if you count McRoberts. That completely ignores that the Spurs would have to lose more salary just to have the cap space to retain Whiteside.

Your deal was stupid for a lot of reasons, but most of them were structural. There won't ever be an outcome that would make it work. It'll never be worthy of a bump. That you can't see the real issues with your proposal is why you're in Fuzz territory even before we debate the on-court stuff. This thread should be locked, as it's obviously not relevant anymore and never will be again.

you must be huge fan of our diaw/west combo

the trade was never about retaining whiteside. this could be manu & td's last year, the trade was about winning now.

I guess you're okay without the Spurs' third best player in the series (Green). Who the is replacing him? Gerald Green?

whiteside, dragic, mcroberts > parker, green

everyone on this board agrees we need a pg for next season. with my trade proposal, that wouldn't be a concern.

-diaw and west: too short
-boban: could get blown by
-duncan: 40 years old

yeah, the last thing we need on this team is two young, athletic big men

i already told you dragic was better than parker. you didn't like that either

I really think you've sprouted a leak up there. The Spurs get burned just as badly with that deal, but then they end up in a terrible cap position going forward in addition to not even having Whiteside.

[gambit1990]

what do we need going forward? a pg. how about big men who aren't too short, someone who isn't too slow, and someone who isn't 40?

dragic, whiteside, mcroberts for tony and danny?

The Spurs get burned just as badly with that deal

A dream trade for the Spurs will be: Diaw, Slomo, Boban, Simmons, 3 first round picks for Rudy Gay... We desperately need player like Gay, as a real sixth man player for us, as another fire power and a small ball option against the Dubs and thunder..

It was big mistake not trading for Gay, with him we would had the material to go small and counter what okc did to us...

Gay for who? Bonner? Ok. Spurs needed someone to either put the ball on the floor and attack the basket or get them into transition offense. Spurs didnt have the coaching insight to tell the players STOP SHOOTING JUMPERS. The "game plan" just emphasized the age and the athleticism. Gregg is an idiot, and for "as smart" as everyone thinks SA players are - they sure looked stupid this series.
