Damn, Lets just keep this team and add a minor piece or two. 2018 free agency will be loaded with true max players.
*Westbrook (assuming he doesn't sign an extension)
*LeBron
*Durant
*George
*Cousins

Nba Summer of 2018
29 Team Pipe Dreams.
People keep saying we should be saving for 2018 but c'mon, Boogie is never coming to SA, PG would never play here and is likely going to LA, and Westbrook is likely staying in OKC. The only player who may say it and changes teams to beat GS is Lebron, considering Cavs are in cap and it doesnt seem like there are any realistic moves they can make to leapfrog GS.
besides, iirc don't the spurs only have Leonard + Murray signed thru 2018? even if we added CP3 this summer, wouldn't we still have money to chase another big FA in 2018?
Assuming La Marcus and Danny exercise their player option we would be at 52m in committed salaries. This is assuming no Patty or Simmons on the team. Currenty the Spurs payroll is at 112 million per hoopshype.
I think Paul George would play here. He will play where he thinks he can get to the Finals and Golden State cannot afford him. But I see him staying in the East and joining Lebron or going to Miami.
Ive actually seen some media figures stating Lebron to the Spurs 2018...
Im not saying it will happen though.

I think a good pickup before LeBron comes next year Michael Beasley we should have signed him last offseason
I can stop reading there. That about sums it up.
Is MJ still available?
How about Kobe? lol
Man he throws some truth bombs but man the media would go ape if that happened...
What makes you think Westbrook isn't going anywhere? He has a better chance of going somewhere than CP3 does coming to SA.
$200mil and being the bonafide #1 option. I also think OKC lands Griffin and reemerges as a credible playoff team and Top 4/5 team in the West.
I bet Pop would. He hasn't played for a coach he respected. I bet he would respect Pop though....but then again, I hope he never signs with Spurs.
I would want him to sign looking at his talent-level and the team's need for a multifaceted big that isn't a liability on D, but his time in SAC and NOP's poor record after his trade there gives me pause. As for Pop, I just don't think he sees it as worth the risk when the Spurs already have LMA to worry about on top of poor guard talent.I bet Pop would. He hasn't played for a coach he respected. I bet he would respect Pop though....but then again, I hope he never signs with Spurs.
Disagree son. Look at "MVPAU's" Memphis playoff record of 0-12 as the Alpha. The minute he was "traded" to LA we became instant contenders while winning the West 3 consecutive years.
Pop would be an idiot to not even consider bringing the best big man in the game to SATX. Boogie/LMA/Leonard would be the best frontline in the game, bar none.
But yeah, I hope doesn't go to the Spurs. I'm holding out hope that he considers the Lakers. You know how we do with dominant bigs.
DeMarcus Cousins is the guy I want. He's a true big that will punish small ball. He usually has big games against the Warriors. He's one of the only guys in the NBA that can still dominate small ball teams down low (he plays like a dominant big man should against small ball teams). If he was on the Spurs during these playoffs and Kawhi went down like he did, I'm pretty sure he would have averaged 30+ against the Warriors. We may not have won, but he would have dominated them like LaMarcus and Pau were supposed to do with tall ball.
I wanted him last trade deadline, but I didn't think he was going to be traded until after it happened. I didn't think the Kings were serious about it.
You don't have to worry about Boogie on the Spurs. How many big men not named Duncan have truly thrived under Poop? Besides, Poop can't manage strong personalities. He's no Phil Jackson.Disagree son. Look at "MVPAU's" Memphis playoff record of 0-12 as the Alpha. The minute he was "traded" to LA we became instant contenders while winning the West 3 consecutive years.

Umm didn't we sign Dennis Rodman?? Just saying ...........
