I would be 10000% on board with that deal.
He's a RFA.

He's a restricted free agent. They have Russell. And are going to be focused on getting big names in. Might overlook him?
The Dubs may win this year but they aren't going to 3peat imo. And OKC's players will continue to develop imo. They have all of the tools needed to win. 2 young stars, solid big men, defense when they try and historical rebounding imo. If Westbrook learns to defer to KD in late game situations then they'll def win 1 or 2 les.
Parker is not going anywhere as long as Pop is around
A legit BIG man is more desperate with TD retiring
The playing style of Spurs is going to change from passing game to iso hero ball
Right of first refusal on RFAs and tons of salary cap room prevents him from coming to SA.
The Lakers don't have enough good players to let one of the few they have get away. Next.
My man, it's not that TP has no value to other teams, it would be hard for SA to trade him.
You don't not pay Conley with TP on the team. You do not trade TP just to add a marginal upgrade for even more money. It makes no sense on any level.
What about a trade for Marcus smart? Our first round pick and mills? For smart and 2 of their second rounders.
Hold this L, Porker fluffers. Even the front office has finally accepted that he's never been "the head of the snake" or "MVParker" and never will be.
Yeah you're right that it's between them and the Warriors right now as the top two teams and the Warriors aren't going to win everything. But we'll see after this Warriors series if he actually feels good about the direction his team is headed or not. He could lose all hope and just abandon ship while he's still in his prime. We'll see though.
Yeah that right of refusal is the part that sucks, blah. It's up to the Lakers if they want to max him out or not I guess. He can force a trade right?
47. What if a restricted free agent has no interest in staying with his original team? Is there any way he can force the issue?If the player really wants to leave, he can sign his original team's qualifying offer, which cons utes a one-year contract at a scale salary. He must then play with his original team for one season, and following that season he will become a free agent again. If he meets the tenure requirement he will be an unrestricted free agent, and then can sign with any other team.

Conley over 2017 TP is a massive upgrade tbh...
Teague has a year left for 8 million. Hawks intend on moving forward w/ Schroder starting at PG anyway ( no plans resigning Teague). They get room for Schroder to grow + Mills/Diaw for bench.
Spurs get better overall PG play, great insurance for TP if he continues to regress and another creator they desperately need -- especially if Manu retires.
As much as I would like to see Clarkson on the team, I doubt the Lakers will let him go, especially since the Lakers don't have to worry about big contracts to Russell, Randle, and their top 3 pick anytime soon. But at least the Spurs recognize the need to upgrade at PG and are willing to pay big money for one.
because the Celtics could shake in their defensive three Bradley / Smart / Crowder for something less than a star?
No but they are going to max out on Derosen and go hard after Durrant

If true, it seems like the Spurs will be committed to trying to get rid of Parker. If he really wants to win he will come here, I think Memphis is really going to be a dumpster fire with Marc's injury. Wasn't too bad in Memphis with mediocre coaches. He should be plan C/D. At the right price he plays great defense, but his offensive game isn't anything special.
Disagree. Maybe on defense (but the defense was great with TP), but on offense? I honestly don't think it's worth it at all. For equal money? Sure. For more? No way.
Tony is not going anywhere, tbh... I'm sure they'll extend him after this deal is over unless he wants to retire....
The Lakers have so much salary cap room, they can take on a big contract for JC.
It would be nice to have a San Antonio kid with a lot of upside. It's a year too soon for him to be able to move somewhere else.
Like a massive upgrade....
I know we all have an emotional connection to TP but, holy crap, am I the only who's watched him since 2014? He'll give you a nice vintage performance 1 in every 5 games or so (maybe 2 out of 5 in Oct-Dec) but he's going to get much worse as early as next season....
Even if it's a straight salary dump, the Spurs would make out like bandits by trading him away........
