Stein: Spurs Have Emerged as as Trade Suitor for Avery Bradley

[sasaint]

No one has remarked about the Spurs wanting to add another 6’2” guard to their rotation???

Several - maybe not by specific height.

[sasaint]

If the Spurs were really in it to win it, they would move TP before Green, imo.

Me, too. Not gonna happen. I am just keeping my fingers crossed that the Spurs don't re-up Tony.

And Dejounte Murray and Kyle Anderson are the best defensive PGs and SFs in the league because DPRM says so.

Murray and Anderson are good defenders (definitely not scrubs) but they won't be All-Defensive team selections like DG was last year. And again, like I said, scrubs don't make All-Defensive teams. Your troll game is kinda weak, pal

Id probably move Green for Bradley, tbh.

Can someone give me cliff notes on this rumor?

[Leetonidas]

Idk man kobe was getting all defense nods for years just off reputation and his defense was garbage from 2003 onward

I know people were holding out for a Danny Green for Anthony Davis or Giannis Antetokounmpo trade but those trades seem very unlike at this point in time.

Send Mills down with 1st round pick. Other trade are stupid

[HarlemHeat37]

It's a lateral move from a basketball perspective..neither guy is as good as they used to be and they're both low-floor/high ceiling players that can be useful in the correct setting(Bradley has failed miserably since they tried to turn him into something more than a role player)..

I could see why the Spurs would do it(for the reasons DPG mentioned) and it's a no-brainer for the Clippers..it wouldn't solve any of the Spurs' issues, though..with teams like the Warriors/Rockets, you want to have a bunch of long wings/2-way guys playing together in versatile lineups, rather than trading one for another..

Ideally, you want to swap one of your tiny guards who will get exposed against Warriors/Rockets offensive switches and defensive pressure(Parker, Mills, Forbes)..unfortunately, Green is probably their only tradeable piece, since Mills' contract is poison, Forbes has no value and Parker is God..

if the spurs trade a 6’6” defender for a defender who’s 6’2”

I'm going to count how many times I'm going to make you eat your own this year after Danny blows his defensive assignments left and right and every time it happens, I'm going to quote you in the thread. I'm sure you'll be nowhere to be found.

It's not just a one-to-one trade either. It's LDN + a first round pick for a regressing midget.

Size doesn't matter when you're way out of position or you fall for the same pump fake 10 times in a row.

Well if he was blowing assignments left and right he wouldn't have made an All-Defensive team.

This.

[Big Empty]

DM is 6’5. He could take guard the SG’s and AB take on the PGs

Then you would be losing much of what makes Murray valuable: his defense and rebounds over shorter PGs.

[spurraider21]

Bradley had a lot of potential if he was able to become an NBA point guard... but instead he's an undersized 2. still, he brings more to the table on offense than Green, but he can't defend wings like Green. its pretty close to a lateral move, though bradley is a few years younger.

but makes no sense to also throw in a first round pick

I know you're a troll but come on. Scrubs don't make All-Defensive teams.

Lol right. The nba doesnt have 3 players who play good defense after the three its pretty much whoever

[Atl Spur]

Height doesn’t make you a great defender; Danny is a system player! Put Avery in our system he would probably flourish. His lateral quickness , speed and instincts a far more superior to greens.

Pistons may trade Stanley now......

Not exclusively, but it always helps. A good 6'6'' defender will be better than a good 6'2'' defender, and a ty 6'2'' defender will be tier than a ty 6'6'' defender.

And Green is an elite defender.

[Atl Spur]

We shall see.......... Danny will be TRASH if he leaves the spurs! One trick pony..
