If we don't ship DDR's ass out for that 6 pick, our FO needs to be fired!
Who says no?

Fixed your broken link.
And just Patty isn’t enough.
Maybe they prefer patty? Lol
that would be a dream come true. Give them 50 Mills and 19. add 29 if you have to. Getting this net negative off the team and his contract off the books would be huge
They want a real PG, just forget this idea.
Yeah I'm not going to get my hopes up for this
Eh, the sixth pick will suck. Almost guaranteed.
Better than keeping DDR
I could see DeRozan and pieces maybe but otherwise, we wouldn’t sniff that 6th pick.
Suns - Mills + Murray + pick 19 + pick 29
Spurs - Jackson + pick 6
Chances are the number six pick will never be as good as DDR, regardless if you think he is trash. Trash can't consistently put up the numbers he has in the NBA. He may not be a superstar, but he has value and the 6 pick is mostly crap. Outside the top 3, I'm not sure why anyone moves up. Not saying there won't be good players in the draft, but most lottery players end up on the bench or out of the league very quickly.
Numbers:
Of the last 35 first overall picks, 77 percent of those players were future all stars. 2nd picks? 34%. 3rd pick? 49%. 4th pick? 29%. 5th pick? 31%. 6th pick? 20%. 7th pick? 20%. 8th pick? 11%.
So trading DDR for the 6 pick is really risky given that 80% of the time, the 6th pick has not been near as good as DDR is. Spurs should not bother trading down into the lottery unless there is a player that they like that slips past the top 5 picks. Lottery picks are too expensive and yield mostly failed players. There is a reason why perennial lottery teams never get better. It's because unless the tankers get the number one pick, it's bleak that they will get anything from that pick.
Non-spurs related threads should be posted downstairs.
Uh, no. You don't throw in extra assets like Murray + 19 + 29 to get Jackson, a player they've been trying to flat out dump for months. He's pretty much a bust after two seasons, and has maturity issues, to boot. Doubt the Spurs would want him, other than maybe as a throw in.
Forget about dumping Patty. That dog won't hunt. Something like this might work, though.
SA sends DD to the Lakers. They get a second star, and keep #4 pick.
Lakers send Ball (+ something?) to PHO. They get their PG.
PHO sends #6 to us. We get a high pick and a HUGE trade exception.
Pop will make sure DeMar retires a Spur.

Having DDR off the team is more valuable than having him on... It's been that way his entire career
This is the only type of scenario where I can see something happening. It’s unlikely Suns would want DeRozan directly; but a team with a young PG that wants to win now can make a 3 team deal work.
You don't need to be an all star to bring value... If u can trade a loser like DDR for someone who ends up having a career like Mike Miller, or Bruce bowen, I'll be happy... if we trade him for a second round pick I'll be exstatic
Maybe we can offer Mills/Bertans/19th pick for Warren and their 6th?
DDR is a point guard, really? Suns need a POINT GUARD. In a more serious note, i think they are targeting Mike Conley tbh.
I like the concept, but especially after the Anthony Davis stuff I don't know about Pop and the Fakers doing a deal. Doubt it. Going through a team in the East might be more plausible.
Sarver hates pop
It will be someone like Rui Hoochiemama (aka the Japanese Tyler Hansbrough), which for some reason people on this board love. Probably because his name is Rui Hoochiemama.
