Thing is I don't think they'll go after Spurs trash again after the Gary Neal experiment failed
1. He's available - Freak is their PG now.
2. Very tradable salary at 2.4 mil.
3. Mills and 1st for MCW and Damian Inglis (Fenchie 3/4, fits here well).
4. Chip works a miracle on his shooting and makes him an average shooter, then suddenly we have a killer perimeter defense with MCW-Green-Kawhi. Who can get through that?
5. All MCW has to do on O is get the ball to LMA/Kawhi, hit the odd open shot, slash a bit, and crash the O boards (something he's great at).
6. Parker shifts to 6th man, kills opposing benches.
7. We use capspace on a rebounder/shotblocker that we desperately need.

The 76ers have 3 Centers. Okahfor, Imbid and Noel. Who are wevtrading for?
Gary Neal was a solid 3pt shooter for the Spurs.
Yes, but like Mills, he's a traffic cone on defense. A shooting guard in a point guard body
MCW plays for Bucks
He's young enough and shows some signs.
Not happening...makes too much sense. Spurs won't do it for that reason alone.
None. 76ers can get better offers than what we can offer.
Most teams have PGs they already like. MCW has "failed" at two teams already. Teams aren't lining up to sign him.
Bayless is out of contract, Patty a similar player to Bayless. Pay Patty 3.2 or re-up Bayless to a much larger contract (due to insane salary cap jump).
We have a history of trading with Milwaukee. I think MCW is there for the taking.
Remember this guy playing well against the spurs last time they met . Spurs usually take note when that happens.
This possibility seems more realistic than conley.
Yuck!!!
MCW sucks and has failed in two (bottom feeder) situations, but will become the PG of the future for the Spurs?
No thanks, he can't score efficiently, is unathletic and is a poor outside shooter. Only thing he brings is defense and length at the PG position.
I would rather stick with Patty and Tony for one last season and fill in the gaps elsewhere. Carter-Williams would just come here and be a huge, huge disappointment anyway.
Jefferson trade 2.0 with the Bucks once again...make it happen RC!!!
MCW looks great as an idea, but, he is a turnover waiting to happen. Pop would never go there.
He is very inefficient as a scorer and isn't a natural leader. Conley fits the bill better for the system.
A lineup with MCW, Kyle Anderson, Diaw, and West. I hate 3pt shooting, it's not basketball. Pull the trigger RC
No thanks to both. One is too old (nearly 30) and the other too unathletic (Carter-Williams) to be the successor to TP.
Conley is extremely overrated by people on this message board. When he pans out like Jefferson did people will be singing a different tune.
Abso inglutely NOT. MCW is the definition of what it means to be overrated.
Did you bother to read my posts? We have this guy called Chip who can fix player's shots. I'm confident he could get MCW to at least league average. And HE DOESN'T NEED TO SCORE! We have 2 20ppg scorers. He needs to defend like a terrier, slash a bit (good at this), O board a bit (good at this), hit the odd open shot (bad at this but Chip will help), hustle to loose balls (killed us in OKC series), and that's it.
Unathletic? Really? Not what I've seen.
We need a strong rebounder so badly we need to spend the money there. If we don't bring in a new PG we're destined to fail for years to come. He's the best affordable option.
Other options are Darren Collison (5m, but I think Kings like him, and he's not a great defender), Teague (8m, and who do we trade for him?), Conley (20m, unlikely and expensive but a good fit).
I'll take a shot on the 2.4m kid who is an excellent defender, long and athletic.
Yes, cause Chip can magically fix any player's broken jumper. Not everyone is Kawhi and do the work to improve a glaring flaw.
His lack of athleticism is one of the main reasons he's a PG and not a SG. Kid is average or below average for a 6'6" PG/SG.
Compare his ability to finish/play above the rim to a similar player in Shaun Livingston, who suffered a gruesome knee injury, yet finishes much, much better and is more explosive going to the rim.

PS Sure, we all want Conley, no . BUT HOW ARE YOU GOING TO GET HIM??? Grizz can offer him much more money, and we'd have to create a lot of capspace to even have a shot.
So, we have, what, a 10% chance to get Conley. What's your next option??? I say MCW, which leaves us money to go and get the rebounder/shotblocker we need to put next to LMA (maybe Noah, or someone like him).
We'll see. All I'm saying is it's worth a shot. Spurs routinely take players under-valued by the league and turn them into gold. I see that opportunity with MCW.
And even if it doesn't work you still have Parker, which was your option. All you've lost is Mills and a 29th pick.
Spurs can offer him a chance to win. Grizzlies have a low seed roster and fired a good coach. They'll be fighting to make the playoffs. Spurs can pay him and he can spend his prime years feeding Kawhi and LMA rather than an aging Randolph and Beta Gasol. I think Spurs have a goo chance to get Conley if they are willing to pay him and Parker.
And if Parker is sold on coming off the bench...
Yep - that's why they traded for Ray McCollum. He torched Parker when he was on the Kings.
