Realistic trade partners for LA/Derozan

[Joseph Kony]

Spurs are going nowhere with these two taking up 60 million on the cap. What teams realistically might have need for these turds, and what would be a decent return for them?

[Mugen]

Nobody is touching either of those guys without absolutely bending over the Spurs......

Pop and RC were shook AF after the Nephew debacle, there's no way they would even consider trading them unless they requested it (please god, I hope they do)...

The FO made the conscious decision that they're okay with first round exit ceilings as long as the fat fans continue to support them and not hold them accountable for anything......

To be fair, it's a good bet since they are the only game in town. They can still put out a mediocre product and loser fans will say it was still a successful season......

Maybe Toronto will take him back when Kawhi leaves.

[Emperor]

DeRozan for Covington/Dieng.

can they take Patty too?

Nothing because they'd have to give up one of the young guards or a pick with them. Their only shot is becoming, some kind of filler on a 3 team trade, and that's very unlikely

Toronto couldn't believe their luck when the Spurs came a knockin'. It's very rare for a team so desperate to take your dead weight off your hands. Yea no one is trading for aldridge or DeFrozan.

The Lakers are stupid enough.

[RC_Drunkford]

Nobody

There are always suitors in the NBA, you just won't get anything good in return..

Franchises like Charlotte, Cleveland, etc will be willing..

I agree, and Portland might be willing to take LA back. You know the Lakers arent getting anyone in FA maybe something like DeRozan for Ingram/Hart/future pick and LMA for Evan Turner (he's trash but he'll be an expiring) on Mo Harkless. Assuming Spurs use their MLE to bring Multinov over like some seem to think, and use the picks and a SF and PF, potential roster would be:

Murray/White/Mills
Walker//Forbes/Belinelli
Harkless//Hart/Turner/1st rounder
Ingram/Bertans/1st rounder
Poeltl/Multinov

Would be so much more entertaining to watch than our current garbage roster

I don't care that much what we get. Just want them gone.

Maybe Phoenix, too..Basically the profile is a franchise desperate to make the playoffs even as a one-and-done 8th seed..

[therealtruth]

Much easier to get rid of Pop. You don't think a player's coach like Ty Lue could have them balling out. Look at what Kawhi's doing with the Raptors. Pop seems to work his magic best with scrubs but good players tend to not play to their potential under him.

[DavidTheGoliath]

I tried DePression for Gallinari and Harrell on ESPN trade machine and it worked. So theres that

Plenty of teams would give you something decent. They have names that are recognized by most casual fans. That puts butts in seats in a lot of NBA cities. I honestly don't think most NBA teams have fans that are as basketball-savvy as the Spurs' fans.

I sure wish we had moved him for Otto Porter, Jr. back when ST was stringing up posters for that suggestion. Wiz would have done it, too, especially after Wall went down.

Jerry West ain't that stupid

We should've traded for Beal. Beal is a better 3-point shooter, can play off the ball and better defender than DeRozan while also being younger and giving you the same playmaking

If knicks whiff on two stars I can see something there for LMA, though, besides picks their assets are thin.

Poor DDR he would get roasted in preseason by NY press....

Same sentiment here. These are inefficient players that don't have the mental toughness in playoff games.

[Fusternino]

I said it before and I'll say it again: LMA + [ . . . ] for AD.

Why the would NO take that when the Celtics can and will offer them a much better package

Why? Your stuck in summer 2018 mode. Things are different a year later:

- thanks to Kings great season Boston three first are late and in a “ ty” draft. They depleated their meaningful assets after this summer.

- what filler that is that much better than LMA can boston send? Hayward? Hortford? Morris? Not really that much better honestly and some of those deals are longer. LMA’s deal also gives Pels excellent flexibility to move on after next year with the partial guarantee.

- and for the current assets. yes, I think Tatum is better than any of White, Murray, and Lonnie. But our young guys (even Forbes and Poertl) have increased their values a lot. As for Boston’s next best young player, Brown, he’s really had a down year. I don’t think his stock will be viewed as that much higher (if at all) than say a Murray or White.

Obviously the spurs would have to give up a lot for a chance to sell AD. I think it’s worth it.

Where is Magic when you need him.
