I'd trade LA for a whataburger and space if SA could get Blake to commit.
I know.. not happening. Just a hypothetical.
You have the source?

Not sure tbh...Maybe moving LMA would be why?? But then again you'd think that'd be the case the whole time?
Ok....let's see where CP3 signs
My MaNu4Tres was telling the truth about LMA. I was also right in knowing the spurs committed to LMAO and weren't gonna trade his ass until his crew popped off.![]()
Stop being vague. If you have sources, either tell us what you're really heard or stop posting. All I see is vague posts after something happens. After it was leaked that LMA wants to be traded, you then say his exit interview wasn't the best. Why didn't you say this beforehand? Anyone can come up with stuff like that after the fact.
All I ever said from the jump was that they're all in on Paul.. Danny Green would be a casualty... and they were going to stash or trade pick..
Also that LMA was late to his exit meeting..
I really don't care if you or others believe me or not..I'm just sharing with other Spurs fans what I've been told lol.

Kind of interesting:
"I live in SA, and Im in the service industry. I kept this quiet for about 3 weeks now, but I think its time. Pop and LMA met for a private lunch at the Silo off 1604, they ate in a room by themselves with doors closed, then talked for about 3 hours. LMA left looking upset, Pop was stoic. I think they were discussing LMAs future, I just didnt know if it was a come to Jesus moment or a gtfo request til now.
I left this as a comment in a thread about LMA wanting to leave, and I think its an interesting bit of information that gives credit to him voicing his desire to get out. Wanted to make it a post so everyone could see."
It was at the end of a story about him and Blake opting out. I'll see if I can find it.
I swear it was at the end of this article yesterday. But not there now.

It's in here. "According to in executive". Pretty weak Inguess.

Interesting if true.. why would LMA leave looking upset tho lol. Maybe Pop said it's time for you to go. And as a courtesy, I'll have it put out there that you believe we have hampered your production
CP3 could drive away Kawhi, too.
(Be careful what you wish for.)
More likely Pop told him you will go if and when I feel like letting you go.
I got the same story from an independent source. He said that the Spurs frequently have exit interviews in a private room at the Silo.
I have never been on the CP3 bandwagon. Especially with the frontcourt in shambles, I think whatever cap space we end up with could be better spent than on one aging, irascible PG.

That would make the Lakers pretty good for a couple of years.
Possible S&T?
Maybe pop said they weren't planning trading him, so Aldridge was pissed. Then the "wants out now" reports came out.
I felt kind if sorry when I read it. It was like a breakup. Both parties were frustrated and it wasn't working out for a while, but there's usually one side that's fed up. I got the impression LMA struggled to fit in from the very beginning and he tried to play in Pops system, but he couldn't. He is not a player to fit in a motion offense, doesn't have the BB IQ and passing chops. It causes him to doubt himself, when to shoot, when to pass. Some vets come to the Spurs and fit right in, Lee, Diaw... etc their game fits in quickly. Even D.West bc he's a good passer and ha a high bbiq figured it out relatively quickly.
Lamarcus tried but he couldn't and it was a strained the relationship from the very beginning. Tim talked to him often even after retiring. But LMA became frustrated. His humiliation in the media was the actual breaking point. He's going to get traded no doubt but I think Pop triied to convince him to stay like it happened preseason.
Frankly it felt like a breakup and like all breakups, even when it's better to move on, they aren't easy, nor do they lead you feeling goo d until you find the next thing.
But it's final. The breakup is on. You can't take him back at this point.
Ugly. Hmmm I am very reluctant now to be discrediting rumors about divas that alienaie teammates ...
I looked at the reddit page and others confirmed that.
I feel that. Would rather have character guys that are good too. I'm at the point where I'm hoping for a sign and trade with Millsap and then sign Hill. They won't have any problem playing team ball and we know without a doubt they'll fit the system, not mention have no problem knowing who the man is.
Makes sense.. Who knows. Maybe he told him they were looking to deal him there too and LMA was upset because? Could be when he went on his unfollowing/deleting tweet spree
Oops! I meant to say "frontcourt." Actually I'd take a S&T for Milsap or Griffin. I don't know whether that would leave enough cap space to sign Hill and Simmons (who I think they now want back) and another big (Gasol?).
