Odd trade. Both expiring deals around the 8.5m mark. Do the Sixers see Tiago as an asset since they gave up two seconds for him? Or is ATL looking to save 200k?
Splitter is going from Spurs assistant to Spurs assistant lol. I guess Philly needed another big?
Actually I misread, ATL (not Philly) sending the picks. Maybe Splitter gets waived.
I think Atlanta is getting ready for a playoff run and they would rather have a guy that is healthy in Ilyasova than Tiago and the two seconds they gave up.
Does this mean Okafor is definitely on the move?
Tiago
Exactly. Nice move by Atlanta.
The Kinetico Water System melted his tongue on this one.
ffffffffff
fffffffffff

Chicago is pushing for Okafor per Woj. It seems like he might be
Nothing new though. There were the "trade bonner, Blair, neal" days tooWhat's funny about many posters here is that they'll on certain Spurs players and call them scrubs(Green, Mills, Anderson, etc) but then use those same guys in their trade scenarios for star players
"Green and Mills suck, but maybe we can trade them for Anthony Davis!!"
"Kyle Anderson is the worst player in the NBA, but I think we could get Isaiah Thomas for him!"
It is seemingly difficult to get a first round pick right now. Not sure Patty (for the discussion earlier) would fetch that. Basically it's taken a star (Boogie) to get a lottery pick, a top candidate for 6MOY with more than one year under contract (Lou) for a 27th pick & taking on money (BKY eating Nicholson's money) and sending out a rotation player for a late first.
With Patty being a FA due for a solid raise I dont think he is going to get a 1st in this market place
It's weird how GMs are so stingy with first round picks considering most picks turn out to be meh anyway
lol splitter. Yet another scenario where advanced stats crapped the bed. Take note chinook.
Any reports from TSpence? That called Gasol to SA.
Didn't Magic already say he was going to trade Lou? Supposedly Williams told him to get him to Houston and Magic agreed.
I was trying to tell you that b4. None of the guys who will be FA this summer will get you back anything better than what you have.
Not necessarily related. PHI didn't really take on money and really just did this to get a 2nd round pick for free. Plus they want Tiago to mentor the other young bigs.
Yup. That deal is done. I'm saying that it's taking a lot to get a first round pick for those of us discussing the possiblity of Mills netting one in a deal.
You sure did. The market it tough right now for obtaining picks; however, decent guard talent is being swooped up at very reasonable prices.
Teams are bolstering depth and weaknesses and even landing stars for very little talent being sent out in return. Great time to be a buyer for talent.
Damn I would hate to trade Mills for a late first. I was hoping RC could use Mills' expiring contract to land Williams, but Lou wanted Houston.
Though with Lou and Bojan gone, the remaining teams might be more desperate. The Spurs might have to take back a bad contract to do it, but I think they could get a first for Patty from a team like Charlotte.

Even though I probably agree, the only reason I would like getting a first for Mills is so SA doesn't have to pay him next year and maybe that cracks the door for Murray to be force fed minutes and who knows what happens with that.Damn I would hate to trade Mills for a late first. I was hoping RC could use Mills' expiring contract to land Williams, but Lou wanted Houston.
But Mills has value to the Spurs for sure and SA is probably better off keeping him even if he's going to walk next year.
I can see that - especially out East, you are getting the sense (ATL move, WAS move, BOS rumors) that playoff teams are dying to add to their teams. Many of the best bench options are gone like you said. However, there is still plenty out there and teams seem to be valuing picks a lot so I think it would still be tough. Eating money is one way to do it though (see BKY).
You're deal would basically be like BKY's deal and how they netted a pick.
But DEN still has many guys they seemingly will deal; plenty of options still.
