Dumping Pau, tbh..
Keep Kawhi, Murray, and Bertans.
Depending on how the team roster is looking, you bring back Juice, Verde, and Manu (I still feel like he could go one more year). Cut the losses with the rest, not saying to blow it up but don't stand pat and think this team is close to le contention because they made the WCF in one of the weakest eras of basketball.
Well since it's the weakest era in basketball I'd like think going back to WCF would be s realistic expectation with a similar team if healthy...the era isn't changing in an offseason lmao
BTW I want changes...big changes but we shall see
Spurs are damn good when healthy so they don't "have" to do anything. However, if Pau opts out and/or they trade LM I am all for it. I trust the FO so whatever they do is good with me. Even if that means waiting until 2018 which is most likely.
They'll swing for the fence like last offseason and if it fails they'll have a good back up plan.
I Don't Want To See Gasol, LMA, Forbes,
I want Hanga and for us to trade up in draft get a mid first PG/SG and keep or first and get a C.
Is that still your No 1 priority?
Quite easily..Even LMA has redeeming qualities as useless as he can be..They could gamble on him in a contract year, maybe he would get off his ass in the summer to lose few pounds after this embarrassment of a season..
Looks like we can finally officially start the post season. We should have tanked instead of getting swept in the WCFs.
Pay Simmons, find another young athlete with heart and decent defense to replace LMA, try to grab some shooters and/or playmakers, and give Kawhi the ball and get out of the way.
Trade for Zaza. At least can guarantee kawhi's ankle will be safe and let Zaza go break Curry ankle
Gasol has no place on this team and didn't from the get-go. Trade his ass ASAP.
As for LMA, I say keep him unless a good offer pops up. Would rather not dump him for peanuts since he actually can play good to great defense; need at least a big to be the defensive anchor.
Keep Simmons if possible. Was high on his defense since game 1 of the season and he showed the rest of his game can have an impact at the high level.
Like Dedmon but I wouldn't be that upset if he doesn't return. Wouldn't pay more than the MLE at Best for him.
Let Mills walk unless he comes at a discount.
Would like the Spurs to trade Tony's contract if at all possible (Tony for Melo?) but unless he retires I expect him back whenever he's ready.
Lee might retire regardless but only bring him back if two of LMA/Gasol/Dedmon are gone.
Keep the rest and beg Manu to return one more year.

NBA Summer League
Said this in other threads..
Spurs need to transition to a C, 3 wing ( defensive w/ size), PG philosophy. I wanted them to go to it last year by getting Harkless over Gasol, since I thought Harkless has more value than Gasol against the teams that matter from a skillset perspective.
Hopefully Pau opts out or gets traded to Memphis , where he can finish his career where it all started for him and hed get to play with his brother.
Trade LA for a wing, or trade him for role player, cap space, and a pick.
Re-sign Simmons
Let Patty walk ( like Ive been saying all year)
See where Dedmons market is.
Bring over Hanga.
Draft Jordan Bell, Adebayo, or DJ Wilson with the 29th.
If you can't get a new Duncan, which you can't because top ten 10 all-time players don't grow in trees, then you need a big with some nasty.
No more of these soft bigs.
Get rid of LMA, Gasol, Forbes...Have Murray work on his defense and jump shooting...make a play at Paul George
I agree. Spurs should return to WCF barring something unforseen.
Paul George with KawhiST might explode
Also, Paul George vs TP who gets to a teammate's wife wins
If the Spurs had signed Pachulia rather than Gasol, would they be beating the Warriors now?
I agree wholeheartedly with the idea of going with a 3 wing and a center lineup. Mills, Green, Leonard, Anderson and Aldridge should be the starting unit next season with Murray, Simmons, Bertans and Manu (hopefully) making up the bench.
I would prefer Parsecnics, Adebayo, Lessort, and Bell in that order. if Diallo is still available then I would like the Spurs to take him. he's 6'5 with a 7'0 wingspan and a 43.5 vert, on top of being one of the youngest players in the draft.
I want us to retain both Mills and Simmons while moving on from Gasol. Mills isn't a PG but starting Anderson helps with his playmaking and Leonard was likely always going to take on an increased role as a playmaker. Mills playing off the ball adds more shooting to SL
Move on from Mills. Just let it go...hes not worth the money.
Agree with Diallo, I like him a lot long term.
Hope SA can either buy an early 2nd rounder or trade for 1. I want Bell or Adebayo and Diallo.
Gasol will probably opt in so the spurs won't be able to afford to keep both Mills and Simmons.
Mills and LMA need to get the off of this team, why would anyone want those two choking scrubs on this team?
SF:Kawhi
SG:Simmons
PG: DJ Murray
C: Dedmon
PF:KA
the bench. And yeah I know my lineup is probably terrible in one way or another but I don't give a as long as LMA and Pau are gone.
