    Warriors built a loaded team even prior to winning a championship..they lucked out with Curry's contract, but outside of that, everything seems to have been planned and scouted well..

    Spurs' front office still has the reputation of being ahead of the game, but they haven't lived up to the hype in years..it will be interesting to see if the success translates without Duncan there as the influence and leader..
    Bruh, that's crazy. Trading Hill for Kawhi, how many 50 win seasons? How many les and recent WCF/Finals appearances despite dealing with hard salary cap rules, limited FA's wanting to come to SA and an aging core? Just crazy how much hype this two year run from GS gets.

    Warriors also took rejects like Livingston and washed-up players like Barbosa and turned them into vital role players, too, though..

    Spurs FO is great and it's difficult to find quality players when you're always picking late, but they are years removed from having the reputation of creating "magic" IMO..
    When you have a prime Curry it's easy to make role players look good with spacing. I mean it's no secret that Duncan and Manu made a lot of mediocre prospects suddenly decent.

    rejects like Livingston? He was a bad ass player that they took a flier on knowing that if he was healthy he was a stud.

    Spurs made one of the most savvy trades of the last 20 years which lead to 3 straight WCF, 2 finals and 1 le with Kawhi and that is just in the past 5 years.

    Why would Dedmon pick the spurs over GSW? That team will showcase his talents and allow him to get a big contract next year.
    The question is, are the Spurs even looking at him? Spurs are crazy. They don't seem to even want most of these guys. Teams like Goldenstate (who are massive favourites) pick them up and then they end up being good for them.

    Lol plenty of teams were willing to trade for Bogut. Plenty of teams would sign Barnes and that doesn't matter anyways since he was renounced.

    Wow, went to ball up, came back and Wade is a Bull.

    If Manu pulls the same stunt as Wade we would a) have to not renounce him and b) trade someone to have space to sign a big. It really looks like Manu wants to cash in so I'm assuming Patty is likely gone which explains all the guards we have.

    This will be a test the franchise will have to pass in the eyes of players. Miami opted to the business side. Chicago's deal wasnt far from his value in this era of cap. He's an All-Star and your team's greatest player to the franchise. He wanted the money and it was like 6 mill more, you make it work. We are so lucky to have Duncan. If he wanted the money we would of gave it to him but he did more for this franchise then anyone could've asked for. I know Patfo would rather squeeze him in but I'm sure they are prepared for a scenario of him a) leaving or b) finding a compromise so he can cash in. The thing here is that we take care of him because it becomes a selling point to free agents. Miami proved their loyalty as pretender, with limits. Will we do the same? I think any reasonable number from like 7-11 million for one year will work. I think that will be enough, so we'll have to sign him last. Imo

    ^ Even if that happens (long shot) the warriors will find another trade partner easily

    Spurstalk seems to think hearing Spurs are interested is false and just agent trickery. Now that they don't hear that the Spurs are interested it means they definitely aren't interested. Nobody knows if the Spurs are interested.

    I remember people here at Spurstalk wanting Livingston before he signed with Goldenstate. I don't get how fans here can recognize someone being a good player and then it appears the Spurs show no interest whatsoever. Those people here that wanted Livingston, I give props to you guys. You were right about him turning the corner. He was coming off of a really good stint at Brooklyn and a few fans here saw that he had turned the corner to being a very good player again.

    I have no problem with people lauding GS for how they have built their team and how incredible what they just did is. However, even just looking at recent success (regular season, playoffs, rings) it does not diminish SA at all.

    Yep, Livingston was great with the Nets. Him being a great signing for GSW was never in doubt. People on Spurstalk wanted to go after him as well. I guess he's Danny Green like reject now though.

    Also most of the picks since Kawhi are too early to determine. One of the years we only had a second round pick. The same year as Kawhi we got Cojo who is a great backup in this league and also help us in game 6 vs OKC. The year before Kawhi are draft pick ended up getting injured.

    Agreed, the Kawhi trade saved the spurs from rebuilding, getting green tiago, diaw etc... were necessary moves to win '14 championship

    I thought RJ said he was retiring, he just signed a 2 year deal with the Cavs.

    I don't remember what ended up happening money wise but perhaps that was an issue. Also he's a better fit with GSW who can play him with starters who are great three point shooters. Compared to the Spurs who had a dominant postup bench player in Diaw and someone that needs the ball in their hand like Manu. Also what works best next to Manu is a 3pt shooter.
