Interesting. I like Sabonis and Holiday.

For it to move the needle for me, though, I would need assurances Holiday would re-sign, Abrines, OKC's first rounder this year, and/or a few 2nds to retool the Euro Stash pipeline.

Otherwise I think there would be a better deal out there for LMA.

This is what I came up with but Pacers probably say no. Would be a shame since we'd get Paul George back finally

Probably say no?

You guys need to remember chinook last offseason said Danny Green was irreplaceable. He was the best 3&D player in the league. I wouldn't trust chinook evaluations on players.

Now Mills is irreplaceable.

The thing is, Green shots is broken, and has been for 2 season. He isn't automatic from deep wide open anymore. I believe it was the Bucks loss cemented that fact for me. 2 wide open threes from the corner to secure the win. Bricks both, even though he was shooting the rock really well that game. Those shots were a given in 13 and 14.

it, trade him for Ellis and Miles.

What about looking into Ben mclemore and wily cauley-stein? Both players are out of favor in Sacramento and don't get much minutes. Wily could start next to Aldridge and mclemore can come off the bench. Be a sixth man for us.

I would use use dedmon in the trade. He is probably getting a big contract. And WCS is a bigger, younger, more athletic version. Pau and Lee would be a good random off the bench. Then bring Corey Jefferson up from the toros.

WCS and Mclemore

for

mills, Dedmon, Simmons, and a second round pick

Parker, Murray, Forbes
Green, Mclemore, Manu
Leonard, Anderson
Aldridge, Lee, Bertans
WCS, Pau, Jefferson

I really like this trade. Both Cauley Stain and Maclemore are still on rookie contracts and so (being restricted free agents at the end of their rookie contracts) can both be re-signed if worth of it. Dedmon, Mills and Simmons are all ending their current contracts...and probably we are gonna lose at least two of them in any case this summer. I also agree that at this point we need to play Murray more 'cause the lack af a play making weapon is becoming more and more clear...
imho its a win win situation...maybe not for the present (the new guys need time to learn the system) but for the not so distant future.
For Sacramento the trade is good 'cause they need someone at the point guard that can give good minutes and do some of the Collison things (Mills) plus they replace the same position they are gonna trade us (reserve guard and reserve center) with two guys that are performing well enough to give them a spark for the play off race.
obviously, after the trade, we need to sign a third string point guard...

Ugh, Danny's percentages say otherwise.

bulls willing to give up doug mcdermott for a first round pick. i'd make that happen asap.

Ehh, he has not been very good. For a Spurs type first round pick? Maybe. He's supposed to be a shooter but he's struggled there and he's been clearly a net negative player.

I mean, it's not terrible but I don't see how helps this year. He's still very much an unproven project. Spurs need offense now and creators. He's neither.

The correct move for the spurs, imo..Is to wait out and let the season play out. Their trade should happen at the start of the season.

I'd offer a former 1st Rd pick instead....one that isn't that fleet of foot ...

I agree. They are just highly unlikely to move pieces that could net a significant contributor. Then guys like to about players 10-15 in the rotation but they have obtained contributions from all of them when needed (Forbes is the most disputable. He has only had a single good game--against the Raptors--but he hardly dresses to play and as a prospect for the future in case they were to let Mills go he's fine.). I thought they could use help from an additional shooter but they are unlikely to get anyone better than Bertans anyways. If they want to solve things up with the guards they could work Dijon in a little. Pop has guys its on him what he does with them.
