Report: Spurs expected to make run at Mike Conley in free agency

[J_Paco]

Good player, but too risky IMO..

Exactly, I don't understand people's obsession with him.

[Floyd Pacquiao]

That can score. Better than Patty imho

[DPG21920]

MCW is a bad fit w/ Kyle & someone like Gary Payton II can approximate his skillsets as a 3rd string PG. I was advocating for PATFO to trade Kyle for MCW during the trade deadline but the ship has sailed on that one.

Of course MCW is a bad fit, just saying a type of avenue SA might explore.

[baseline bum]

Brandon Jennings would be a good project for cheap.

Didn't he tear his achilles? No thanks.

[cjw]

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.

Don't think there are a ton of dominoes to fall like last offseason (masterfully pulled off) so if offering Clarkson a solid deal makes sense, at least force Lakers to match and lose flexibility.

For the first time in a long time, you're about to see serious roster turnover. Only three guys are safe (TD and Manu excluded). Parker is one of those three for better or worse.

[LongtimeSpursFan]

Not sure if I want a pg that had only made it to second round once in last ten years

[Godbama]

I'd love this but lol at people talking about "moving Parker". In this PG heavy market, you really think you can move a 33 year old Tony Parker who still hasn't fully grasped that the 2016 Spurs aren't "his team" anymore?

PG heavy market? I think you are confused about the market.

[Godbama]

PG heavy market? I think you are confused about the market.

I don't mean the upcoming free agent market, I just mean in a general league sense there are plenty of okay to good PGs out there. Are you seriously telling me there's significant trade value in 33 year old Tony Parker?

[DPG21920]

Depends on your definition of significant. I don't think SA trades TP unless they think they have a shot at a Durant type player. However, I do think him being on a 2 year deal (low risk as you can trade him as an expiring contract if it doesn't work) and his contract being relatively low for what we will see guards getting from here on out makes him attractive to some teams.

But I don't think SA does TP like that.

[phxspurfan]

Yes, Conley would make a great addition. Defense and pass PG. He and Pau would make a great off season.

Not necessarily. Especially since Milwaukee would more than likely put MCW back on the block. I like the GPII idea, but expect more draft & stash BS

[LkrFan]

He can't shoot. Would kill your spacing. Do it RC!

[TheGreatYacht]

Sit this one out dog.

Mitch is about to show DeFrozan Max money

[LkrFan]

Mitch is about to show DeFrozan Max money

I sure hope the not.

[024]

No but they are going to max out on Derosen and go hard after Durrant

Doubt Durant will leave now that OKC has cemented themselves as second best in the West. And the Lakers are projected to have $60+ million of cap space, the most in the league. Yeah... cap space is not a problem for them.

[timtonymanu]

I liked the idea of Conley but not anymore, especially since they won't let go of Parker. The Spurs are going to need a guard who can penetrate/shoot in the starting lineup.

[spurspokesman]

Would work for a few ring chasing seasons before the blowup

[intlspurshk]

If SPURS really try to get Mike, then TP will be traded. Loyalty is important but the recent playoff shows the team can't even get pass 2nd round with TP as PG. The front office will face pressure from LMA and KL to upgrade the team. I believe TP can still put up double digit scores in eastern conference and some teams with cap room will be interested. SPURS need center who can rebound and play good help defense, 3pt shooting bigman, 6th man combo guard, player to do dirty work and athletic guards. SPURS will need to gradually retool but there are not many good players in the FA market that SPURS can sign, maybe Pau Gasol, Kent Bazemore, Matt Barne, Jared Dudley

[313]

Pass.

[gambit1990]

never been a real big fan. would take him over park for sure though.

how much money does he want?

not really related but isiah thomas is getting paid $6 million next season and the season after that

[houston spurs fan]

I'd make a trade with Atlanta to get Jeff Teague. Start him and have TP come off the bench. I think Atlanta wants to move to starting Schroeder anyways...

[rjv]

i'd rather take a shot at greivis vasquez and have more left over to spend.

[ceperez]

Folks... what about Nando de Colo???

[Robz4000]

Conley would be an awkward fit offensively next to Kawhi/LMA, but would be a huge upgrade on defense. If they offload Parker and Mills finds his shot again it might be worth it, otherwise I'd pass due to the money he'd demand.
