    Speaking of trash, Amico is as reliable as tspence and Wojtek.
    Nah, he's pretty reliable now. A lot of media minds think he's credible...

    Two other reasons this won't happen: Why would they want to trade him to where he wants to go and to one of 2 teams that's arguably been better the past 3 seasons? Spurs would more than likely need far and away the best package for them to overlook those two things and obviously they won't be able to even come close to that.

    I actually think that a Leonard/Irving duo would make Spurs pretty appealing for DMC too..
    I don't know about that. He's a top few usage player and has griped when not playing with pass first PG's. Also, I can't imagine Spurs pursuing him.

    Almost every star thinking about changing teams would have at least some degree of interest though.

    We know other teams might "risk" it. But if your definition of risk it is Oladipo + Sabonis than your definition of risk is not the same as 99% of the nba world.

    Also, if Oladipo + Sabonis is the talent CLE can get, then SA with LMA alone is at the top of the heap. LMA >>>> Dipo/Sabnois
    Sorry was in a hurry, I meant better package and risk it. LMA imo is not seen as an asset. He's a one year deal, diva, and can't play under pressure which LeBron and team get to Finals every year. Why would LeBron want that when he already has Love. Green is very flawed player, and Murray got pantsed in a Summer League and everyone saw he had a small wiener pretty much. Only thing we got going for us is LeBrons notorious and horrible GMing of players that are his friends.

    Our package can easily be beaten. It's all up to LeBron though.

    If tspence tweets it I believe it, and how dare you try to discredit lefty's Uncle Wojtek?!

    Has Amico ever broken any news or put forward a scenario that ever actually played out? Guy sucks.

    Costa & Fox is not better than LMA/Murray. I don't care how high you value Fox at this point. Fox could turn out to be a stud, but currently that is not better than LMA/Murray.
    LMA/Murray is not the trade... it's turning LMA into Bledsoe to then trade to Cavs... Problem with that is, Suns can also serve as intermediary for a number of teams with Bledsoe as well. Spurs 1st is low, teams can offer better picks and Murray is an ok prospect, but not great by any means and didn't do the Spurs any favors looking bad in summer league. He can't shoot period. Danny is the player that makes the Spurs trade special for Lebron. I am unsure about the whole thing tbh. Bc its really who GM Lebron likes, and bc it really is a lot for the Spurs to let go of.

    Yes I don't think a trade of LMA and Murray is being considered because they don't need LMA with Love there for one. If our goal is getting Kyrie I do think Green is in the trade.

    I'd believe it.. that it was Lebron who meddled to try to get CP3 instead of the trade brokered by Griffin, but caused his abrupt departure...
    They're idiots if they're the ones that declined that.

    Whether this has much of a chance of happening partly depends on speculation of two major things we've heard- Kyrie wants to come here and LMA wants to leave here. If either is untrue, or mostly untrue, I think our chances dimension exponentially.

    Apparently it was the pacers who abruptly backed out to send PG to OKC

    From what I read in various ESPN and other media articles. Griffin had that trade in the table and another for Jimmy Butler. Rumor was that Gilbert declined and fired Griffin bc he objected and wouldn't comply. Lebron preferred that it was Love the deal player, and now there are some rumors that he wanted CP3.. source for that last one is a forum board rumor.. but the others were on ESPN. For sure the Kyrie trade for either Jimmy Butler or PG/Bledsoe got Griffin fired. The havoc created in the FO also was problematic bc once Kyrie got word of what was going on with him, he wanted out. It's been alleged Kyrie suspects it was Lebron who leaked the information and I can guess why... bc he doesn't like the offers that Kyrie's preferred teams are giving and wants to invite more bidding and at this point he's hurt and doesn't care squat about where Kyrie ends up. Ugly side to Lebron tbh.

    The drama there ... All the talk shows talk about how Lebron leaves destruction in his wake .... This is self created. Gives him an exit plan...

    I would love to see Kyrie in a spurs uniform... just don't see it happening.

    Bruh - Both Danny and LMA have sh*t on Dipo's career
    Dipo was an Indiana guy, and Sabonis will be better than Danny 3 and D. They valued his Indiana ties and that's that. Gotta sell tickets you know. They had a connect. We have Lebron wanting to play with friends, otherwise we wouldn't have a snowballs chance in . Also with Sabonis and Dipo they both fill positions of need on a rebuilding team. Still a bad deal...not gonna argue that. My point is that a team can risk players for a star. Sabonis has high upside. Have to wait and see. I'm high on him. At this point it's TBD on what they would call "better" with things like not sending him to a contender to be considered..

    But when you look at the totality of LMA, Green, and Murray without the "I-can-see-why-they-do-it" goggles, there's the health of LMA, the at ude, and the performance in the playoffs. And Green who you can hide anyone on him on defense in the playoffs, (and if he doesn't hit his threes he shouldn't be out there. He's no curry stopper or harden stopper for example. Simmons did better against Harden but I digress) and Murray which has potential but has a long roads ahead you realize basketball speaking you can do a lot better.

    maybe kyrie's AST to TOV ratio in the playoffs would be better if he knew that the earth was round.

    close to seething seeing spursfans that want him

    how many times did he take his team to the playoffs (pre lebron), while being in the east?

    ppg
    like i said, look at his AST to TOV ratio in the playoffs
    see if you can defend that.
