yeah, what do you think about a trade like this which is actually very possible- I really think Bucks would do this as opposed to trading Giannis?

The East being so weak right now is simultaneously good for our chances of getting one of CHA/CHI picks (maybe both?), but also bad for the quality of the ATL one. Right now, I think I take the additional pick over a less interesting ATL pick, which we are already guaranteed.

Lillard is washed. Do. Not.Want.
Apparently something like this wouldn’t work bc Milwaukee is in cap jail and can’t aggregate their own players to make the $$ work. They can receive multiple but can only send one out.
Thank God.

No way. Lillard owed a ton of money too. Aging small PG... no thanks
That would be a dream come true if they accepted that. Honestly think they would swap Barnes and Paul for some kinda pick. Regardless, Dame would be great with Wemby. Move Vassel to the 3 and keep Castle as the 1. I'm telling yall vassell is a great 3-man in the best case scenario.
I think they could do multiple players for multiple players just not consolidate multiple players for one player. Also this trade works with or without aj Johnson. And you could sub Zollins for Johnson. Idk they need a decent big I think so they might actually want him more than Keldon.
But yeah I kinda agree with you guys that Lillard is done. Only if they think they can bring back 28 point a game Lillard is it worth it.
they can absolutely play rookies that are better than Blake Wesley, Branham and Keldon. The top 20 in this draft is most likely better than these bums right away, just like Castle
Draft is stacked, but all of them being very young. Then you would have your rotation - 3 rookies, 1 soph - Castle, 3rd year Wemby out of 9-10 guys, with a chance one of them being 40 yrs CP3. All that with new coach.
If we end up at .500, does Mitch keep the job?
"Of course, it can work. Oklahoma City has proven this over the last few years, and the future looks bright for them, especially with them still being one of the youngest teams in the league. Bringing in older, more experienced players doesn't always work, as we've seen with teams like Philadelphia and Milwaukee."
I was watching a bucks game analysis, and his nickname used to be Every Other Dame, like every second game he went off. The analyst said now his nickname should be once a week Dame,if Milwaukee is lucky.
I almost hate to admit it, but I like the young guys the Hawks have assembled... Jalen Johnson and Dyson Daniels are both versatile switchable guys, and Hunter, Nance Jr, and Okongwu are all better as bench depth rather than starters. If the 19 yr old Risacher winds up being anywhere above average, they've got a pretty good future blueprint in place.
As we approach the deadline, the standings will be more clear and at that point the Spurs can make some decisions on whether to put this year’s picks up for trade.
For example, if CHA is sitting in the 6th seed at the deadline, I’d definitely try to move that pick. First, it will likely be teetering on the edge of conveying not conveying only by a matter of games, so why take the risk of it going from a #16-18 pick to 2 SRPs. Cash it in at the deadline for something useful. Second, even if it does convey it’s not a pick the Spurs are likely to use. We’re well past the time of taking 3-4 FRPs.
Likewise, if ATL or CHI is looking like a playoff team, you can move those picks to someone who needs it. Unfortunately, the best pick of the bunch this years appears like it will probably be our own (though there is still some hope for the ATL pick). I anticipate us only using 1 pick this year, maybe two if they are both top 10. Sell the rest while you can.
The 20232 dream it is!
Well, I guess a bunch of kid first rounders for DJM is still a good deal …
Alright guys I’m coping.
Recall during the Trae Young trade rumors, people talking about how Trae Young had no value and how our ATL picks were golden because the Hawks would be forced to sell Trae for pennies on the dollar and tailspin into being a bottom 5 team… completely ignoring the fact that the Hawks had the option of simply keeping Trae and improving their team around him… which is exactly they’ve done.
ATL isn’t going to suddenly become a top team in the East… but their demise was greatly exaggerated by folks hoping for the best for the Spurs assets.
With all of that said… F the Hawks. Hope they go on a 40 game losing streak. GSG!
They had years of tension and problems so it was a good bet on our end. Still a long season. But they lucked out with Dyson Daniels and Jalen. Quin Snyder is competent so that was also in their favor. We'll see.
Spurs won that trade the second Houston got the fourth pick since any of Wemby, Miller, or Amen is preferable to Dejounte.
Lost to the Blazers tonight tbh
Hawks drop one to the Blazers. Blazers not tanking hard enough tonight.
Should drop their next one against the Kings.
