Why would it matter if the Spurs had a ton of $ to spend in free agency??

[GrapplingYautja]

"I'm sure"

These dudes play too much NBA2K and play around with that stupid ESPN Draft Machine.

We got as good of a trade as we could for a ONE YEAR RENTAL, dummies!

[DAF86]

Yeah the market on all nba all stars is non existant. Are you ing serious with this ?

If, somewhere down the line, they plan to trade DeRozan is because the didn't work as planned, probably because of subpar play by that player. Folks of over 30 playing at a subpar level and getting paid 30 millions per year for the next 3 years aren't very easy to move, tbh.

[NASpurs]

They will. I joined this board to be around Spurs FANS. Some of you gots, es, pussies are BETA lame cucks! I'd check your wife's phone because someone's sliding in her DMs.

We have Murray, LMA, DeRozan, Gay, Gasol with Mills, White, Walker, Belinelli, possibly Manu. That's not too bad. We need guys that have some sense of TEAM, character, not just "ballers" and stat padders. Coach Pop and his squad are going to COACH our dudes up. Spurs have ALWAYS been a solid defensive team. We just upgraded a little bit on the offensive side.

You don't like what roster Pop and RC cook up then go be a PLAYER fan and get the out!

Also, it'll be glorious eliminating the Lakers in the playoffs, too. ( Serial Killer Rob Lowe and AIDS Johnson.)

I like this guy. BOLD him!

[HarlemHeat37]

This team barely fills the arena when they're actually good, you guys think they're going to tank right now?

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

Yeah. It's not like DD is Pau or anything. There's usually some GM willing to take what you have off your hands. We see it every season.

Yeah some schmuck even took a player whose group stated they wouldn't show up

[cjw]

People on ST always assume the Spurs can get anyone they ing want even when media reports are saying that Boston didn't want to give up JAYLEN ING BROWN and the 76ers ouldn't give up FULTZ. But yeah, I don't understand why the Spurs didn't just trade for Irving or Jimmy Butler. So weird, right?

And RC stuck it to both teams by giving their biggest compe or a shot in the arm.

Also, funny how people around here think there’s zero market for Derozan in a year if Spurs want to rebuild.

[Hoops Czar]

I was kind of hoping they'd tank their way out of San Antonio.

[MannyIsGod]

Its ing laughable to me that in this same thread the same person posts that the Spurs could get Butler or Irving for Kawhi but that they won't be able to move Demar's contract if they want cap room. At least be consistent with the bull .

I get being upset because the team went from contenders to mediocre in the span of one miserable season but if you're blaming PATFO for this show you're simply wrong. This all rests at the feet of Kawhi and his stupid uncle. The Spurs did the best they could to polish this turd.

[DAF86]

Based on what?

There are many reports that indicated that the Cletics indeed offered Irving, tbh.

And Butler is another disgruntled star that will leave his team in the offseason. If they would have picked the phone and started to discuss possibilities, I'm sure they could have got somewhere.

You think that Demar ing DeRozan is going to sell any kind of tickets?

Also, there were others options that could have mantained the Spurs a playoffs team and didn't involve taking on DeRozan's cancer play and contract. Like getting Saric and Covington.

THEY WEREN'T WILLING TO TRADE SARIC. JFC.

Do you like seriously believe they haven't picked up the phone and talked to every single team over a million of possibilities that you never even thought of before making the deal?

[MannyIsGod]

Ya'll can anyone explain to me why they didn't just trade Kawhi for Durant instead of getting DeRozan? I mean really what are PATFO thinking?

[Chucho]

People are acting like the roles each person played for their teams got traded as well. No one is asking DeRozan to come in and "carry" the team or be the franchise. He's the No. 2 to Aldridge and we have Rudy who is getting better.

Compared to giving that awful contract to Bonertrans - who can't rebound or defend worth a - this move is a win. This off season has been and people who think we could have done better might be re ed.

[rjv]

Best case? Spurs are the second best team in the West this season. They won 47 with zero production from Kawhi. Houston is going to be worse this year. Likely - no. But possible they’re second fiddle to the Warriors.

Worst case? You move Derozan in a year, and can start the rebuild next summer by buying out Pau for his $6 million. Patty will also be very moveable in a year after FA.

And hope the young guys develop. If they catch lightening in a bottle with Walker, could be a lot of fun.

Please explain me how those two scenarios would be related.

Saric wasn’t on the table my guy lol

[Hoops Czar]

I would have taken one year of Irving over three years of DeRozen.

[DAF86]

Do you like seriously believe they haven't picked up the phone and talked to every single team over a million of possibilities that you never even thought of before making the deal?

Yeah, I really doubt it. Specially regarding Butler and Minnesota. Hope I'm wrong though.

[MannyIsGod]

Because you think that the Spurs can get whatever they want for one severely undervalued asset but you don't think they'd be able to move a repeat all star who has made all nba teams. Its inconsistent AF.

DeRozan himself? No, but having him will keep the Spurs in HCA discussions, which is what they need right now..like him or not, he's a very good regular season player, he's essentially the Aldridge of the backcourt..

Spurs desperately need high-level scoring, did you forget last year's team? they lost like 10 games after blowing double-digit leads in the 4th due to not having a shot creator..

last year at the trading deadline not after it went public he only wanted la

Durant wasn't available Manny

[DAF86]

Saric and Covington was the suppossed Sixers offer from the get go.
