NBA Trade Deadline 2018

Because I don't see PG wanting to stay in OKC past this summer after they lose in the 1st Round (2nd Round at best) and continue to be 2nd or 3rd fiddle for them when he could just bolt for LA and be "the guy" on the Clippers or Lakers. Good chance he walks this Summer and they lose him for nothing. Instead, they could've had Westbrook and Blake going forward for the next 3-4 years.

Alright, that is pretty good logic. OKC could really be kicking themselves for turning that down if he walks.

That helps in taking on a Noah trade..

Is getting the NY 1st enough?

Noah's contracts is absurd.

[gambit1990]

would only take noah if porzingis was included.

[cd021]

Noah's contracts is absurd.

A deal centered around Mills for Noah plus the 12th pick is worth it tbh. Spurs getting their hands on a lottery pick for the first time in 21 years without bottoming out is going to require a catch and taking on Noah's contract for the next two seasons wouldn't deter me, at least.

Noah's deal is for $38 Million after this season, and would put the team into the tax to acquire. Add to that that Joakim is a cancer, and I can't see any way that's worth the 12th pick.

I don't know whether Noah was a cancer when he was with the Bulls. I just thought his knees were gone.

I don't know if i really matters, if the Spurs were to acquire him they don't have to have him anywhere near the team.

If you are prone to believe Kiwi objects to this roster, I am not sure he would like picking up the corpse of some team cancers and lottery pick that will be raw and undeveloped, not matching his timeline. It's not a win now move... NEXT.

Can Greg Monroe even play anymore?

Trade kl. Too much drama

[jermaine]

Trade him to Boston for their young talent

[sasaint]

Ainge is a shark tbh

And our GM is a flounder.

[BackHome]

Lol a Puffer Fish.

[HarlemHeat37]

Evans to Boston is perfect, they desperately need offensive talent with Hayward out..add Evans or Lou Williams(playoff choke aside) and they're set for a Finals run..

They'd probably be pretty damn close to the tax anyway but even if it were Joff and Mills for Noah, they'd be around $10 million over the luxury tax with Noah and the 12th pick's factored into my 2018-2019 guesstimating of the salary situation. Not nearly as tolerable as I thought first thought.

Absolutely. Not to mention it'd completely kill any chance to create a max slot in the summer.

I just don't see any way to get there. LeBron would probably take an meeting with PATFO because he legitimately seems to respect Pop and the organization but it would be a hard sale and then there would have to be a S&T to get him his money likely involving Mills and Gasol plus 2 first rounders

There are at least 2 possible scenarios for the Spurs to create a max slot, if they need one.

If it's not too much trouble, can you tell us those scenarios? You seem to know your stuff.

This article explains one possible way. Another would be by trading both Patty and Pau. A third one would be around trading Aldridge. Of course most scenarios involve renouncing everyone - Danny, Rudy, Parker, Bertans, Anderson, etc. It's doable and would be easier than for Houston, for example.

get tony off this team... he's only going to get worse on the defensive end.

I think you have solved a puzzle. This must be why Pop keeps BP3 around.

Agree he has been awful. Needs to retire if we are honest but he just gave an interview saying he wants to come back.
