The Hornets had already made available Nicolas Batum (four years, $100 million), Dwight Howard (two years, $47 million), Marvin Williams (three years, $42 million) and Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (three years, $39 million), league sources said, but those players and their contracts are largely unattractive in the marketplace.![]()
Someone call up MJ and explain to him Kawhi and LMA winning chips with Kemba is only good for the Jordan brand![]()
I mean if you think Pop is going to have him move away from his family temporarily, then sure. But I don't see any way that happens. Plus, the Spurs are already good. TP will only be traded if he wants to play elsewhere. More likely tho, he'll be a Spur for life
There's not a lot of teams that Kemba makes sense for.
The point guard position is the most saturated in the NBA. Most playoff teams already have a franchise point guard and for the lottery teams that don't have a promising young PG, would it make sense for them to trade assets for a win now move? I think not.
Spurs are one of the few teams, if not the only team, that:
A) Is a contender
B) Has a huge need at PG
C) Has the assets to offer a solid deal
Can be simple as Mills, Murray, rights to Milutinov and a 19' 1st for Kemba
Or maybe
Mills, Murray, Green, 1st in 19'
For
Kemba and Lamb
Makes sense...
Again if Spurs don't make a move it's bc they don't want to... loyalty, culture, etc.
Interesting, but you're not willing to offer this years first? Why?
The key line in the Wojnarowski story: Charlotte is hopeful that the inclusion of Walker in a potential trade could help bring back a good, young player or a first-round draft pick.
So in addition to what you just said and I've been saying, they know that their insistence on dumping a bloated contract will also drive down the return some. Gay, Mills, Murray, 1st for Walker, Williams, is the trade that makes sense.
Spurs shouldn't need pressuring, but if they're going to play the culture / loyalty game, particularly with Mills, this is where you'd hope Leonard or even Aldridge steps in and tells them to pursue this to the fullest. Walker and Williams are not only good fits on court, but known as two good guys too.
i think tony can afford a couple plane tickets.
I'd love that deal you proposed. Marvin is sneaky underrated. Very smart, efficient player that can D up.
It makes some from the Spurs, but doesn't help Charlotte much. A late first rounder for more committed salary...24 million.
I remember when Batum was the Spurs' pre-draft target. I did not realize that he had completely fallen off a cliff.
Yeah. No one should have more motivation than Spurs to pull this off. They have to attempt to take advantage of a rare opportunity where so many things appear to line up. If they don't at the very least pursue this to the fullest, it will tell me they're no longer serious about contending for a championship.
Aldridge/Williams
Leonard/Anderson
Gasol/Aldridge
Green/Ginobili
Walker/Parker
Bertans, Forbes, Lauvergne, Paul, White.
2nd best team in the league, capable of giving Warriors a series.
Yeah, not only is a far cry from the Batum that used to kill the Spurs in Portland, but he's also making 25M for the next four years. No thanks.
That has to rank as one of the 2-3 worst contracts in the league.
Shumpert, Frye, Rose, would probably be the return. Kings could buyout Frye and Rose, who are both expiring, while Shumpert makes almost $8M less than Hill next season.
Damn, Walker has his flaws, but he would be perfect for the Spurs..I can't remember the last time there was a player on the trading block who would actually fill a hole that would make the Spurs a contender, tbh..Pop probably isn't even paying attention, though![]()
they wouldn’t win one more game in the finals with him.
and that contract![]()
Sir Charles on TNT last night predicted Cavs would not get out of the East and one of the East contenders would pull of a deadline deal.
Oh damn, don't tease me. I'd instantly buy a Kemba jersey. Dude is tough as nails.
It's ing incredible how badly Patty fleeced PATFO.![]()
If yal don't think the Spurs FO ain't tryna get Kemba, yal some ing fools.. Esp after the reports of how they tried hard to get Irving...
