i think Jalil Okafor looks kinda like Tim Duncan. it'd be cool to see the spurs trade for him, on that alone.
trade parkey for a 1st rounder straight up

Vince Carter and Danny Green to the Twolves. A kid from Toronto named Wiggins gets to play with Carter. The Tarheel triple gets to play with Carter. And Carter gets to mentor that stacked Wolves roster for a shot at going out with a ring.
Rubio and Marc Gasol to the Spurs. Espana en San Antonio. Pop loves chemistry. Bonus, i think Manu would be a great mentor for Rubio.
Lame, Kyle Anderson, and Shabazz Muhammad to the Grizz. Not the greatest deal for the Grizz. Lost probably their main locker room glue guy in Carter, and lost their main man Gasol. Not a bad rebuild move, if they can get a Minny or post-Timmy 1st from either team. Lame aint far from Dallas. Anderson and Shabazz have a UCLA connection. and they are young depth behind Parsons.
One of the worst trades ever. Every team would be worse.
lol, i think that's a sign of how balanced it is and how pessimistic you are.
Honestly, think about this. A spurs roster that features Parker, Manu, Mills, the Gasol bros, Rubio, and Kawhi could basically be renamed the international allstars. Complete with Pop coaching. The refs would probably stop calling goaltends.

And don't sleep on what Carter and Green would do for that stacked young Minny roster. The only team that possibly gets worse is the Grizz. And with the head scratching Conley deal, I think they would actually agree to a deal for Lame and prospects.
It's not the 90's anymore. The Gasol brothers would be unplayable together against every ing team in the current NBA. Pick and roll defense would be non existent, offense would terribly slow down, with huge and unsolvable spacing issues.
Would be great in the 90's, but not in todays NBA.
I don't have much faith in lame, Dedmon, Pau. I'd much rather see Gasol bros and Livio. Also, Rubio isn't a great one on one defender. But he's an excellent pick pocket. Rubio, Kawhi, Simmons would really help out the Gasols with pick pocket help defense.
Also, if the Gasols and Rubio defense failed, the passing ability would turn Simmons and Kawhi into dunk contest compe ors.
Gasol bros, Kawhi, Simmons, Rubio
Dedmon, Lee, Manu, Mills, Parker
Livio, Bertans, Murray

WCS+Gay for LMA.
We would get a defensive stopper for the future, while Gay could still give valuable offense and D, while would help us to match-up GSW much better.
Kings would be a nightmare for opponents with their big man, and DJ is only capable to work with traditional big man.
I think it's a win-win, but I am higher on Gay than most people on this board, and haven't checked the salaries.
That's not enough, if you ask me. They'd need to be able to trade their pick this year
I would want more than that for LA as well. I'd think a smaller trade if we go after WCS. Dedmon + a 1st + one of our younger guys like KA, Simmons etc
I'd only move LA if we got a real game changer or if the season tanks. I think AD in New Orleans will ask for a trade soon. I was at the game against the Lakers Saturday night and his body language towards his teammates was very negative. There aren't many teams that make a lot of sense for him. Boston in the east does and we do in the West. Something like LA to Phx with Knight + Bender or Chriss + their 1st + our 1st + KA to NO might work. At any rate, that's the kind of deal I'd be looking for if I moved LA unless we tank the season...
One "hidden value" guy in the nba I'd trade for right now : Rashad Vaughn from the Bucks. He's somehow only playing a few minutes every other game to accomodate the corpse of Jason Terry who must be Kidd's great buddy. But his stats went way up this year albeit in a small sample size, including blocks and steal and he's still only 20. Not 100% sure about his form, when he misses he misses very badly, it's weird, but I like him. I've liked plenty of scrubs before so be warned.
Got his career high a few days ago : https://youtu.be/O5L-HK7ounc
Milwaukee has lost trades before, especially when they let Kidd make the decision (MCW, Vasquez...) so if he doesn't like him, who knows what it'd take to get him.
WCS would barely fetch a late 1st right now. Our late first + Kyle or Simmons is not unreasonable.
I'm excited about the two way contracts coming online. I think it'll lead to more transfers of players in that 11-15 roster range since teams can afford to be experimental knowing they're cultivating prospects in the d-league.
For example, if the Spurs were to move Kyle the drop off to Garino isnt THAT big right now if the return is a flop or the players needs more time to adjust to the system.
Aldridge to PHX
Noel/ Bledsoe to SA
Bender to Philly.
From the Spurs' perspective I like it, but I am not sure Bender fits in with Philly. He seems pretty redundant for Philly...Aldridge to PHX
Noel/ Bledsoe to SA
Bender to Philly.
Or just cut out Philly and take Bender back?Aldridge to PHX
Noel/ Bledsoe to SA
Bender to Philly.
Prefer Noel -- he's more established and you know what you're getting.
With Bender the returns are further away and are unknown. He could be another Nikoloz Tskitishvili for all we know.
Indeed, I'd prefer that. Noel is about to be paid and doesn't fit with Gasol, Lee or Dedmon. If the trade sent out Pau instead and got Noel plus something back, then that's a different issue.
Not bad, but from Spurs perspective:
- Bledsoe and Parker couldn't really co-exist and they'd probably only move on from Parker for an elite point guard.
- By all accounts, Noel is not Spurs material.
- You're right about Bender, but I'd rather the higher ceiling than floor, especially considering even if ends up a bust, they'd at least still have Bledsoe to show for it.
- Bender could also conceivably fill the gaping long term (short term, Gasol on offense and Noel on defense, could do so in tandem) hole at power forward.
From 76ers perspective:
- Bender is probably better value than whatever they can get for Noel at this point, but it would make sense for them to re-route him for a guard.
From Suns perspective:
- Since Aldridge would be a win now move, it would make sense to retain their current best player.
It's a good point above about whoever would trade for LMA making the move as a win now mode move. It's another reason Boston makes sense. Toronto is another team (who is desperate for a PF) but I don't really care for their assets.
I don't like the Toronto assets as much either. Boston makes more sense and Orlando does as well. The Phoenix trade for Bender makes more sense in the offseason.
