Im far from a hater, but the asset ac ulation and s the easiest part for f the rebuild once you admit it’s time. We’re getting closer to nut-cutting time. That’s the hard part.
As somewhat of a hater, it was obvious Wright is a great salesman, he got us a lot of assets.
The thing that remains to be seen is how good of a buyer he'll be.
This is a great trade, now it's time to outsmart Ainge.

Gray counting as a touch when a top 55 protected pick doesn't seems like a ridiculous loophole
So if that's everything, then good for Wright in not having to cut or asset attach trade Champagnie, Wesley or Branham.
This is so tired man. Very few people have disliked this deal. You guys have to stop assigning an opinion to the hundreds of people here just because you don't like it. Its beyond ing annoying and only you weird homers who never want to say anything bad about the Spurs do it.
Oh I would have loved for them to be able to attach Wesley or Branham but I suspect they didn't want them. It really doubt it was because the Spurs were dying to keep them.
Keeping Champ is good though. I'm hopeful he can hit some 3s in a better offense.
EDIT: N/M I think I misread your point. You meant its good taht they didn't have to send off a pick to dump Wesley or Branham right? If so then yeah, agreed.
The injury happened December 10, 2023 so I'd expect him to be back before November, outside of complications. As long as Bassey is back, I'm pretty happy with this trade. Bassey is a really good backup C that is also a good complement to Wemby.
Wow, they protected Champ. He was very likely to get nabbed given his contract.
It's very likely Bassey is not picked up and they can sign him again.
I didn’t assign it to just this trade. There's a loud 50% Manny who hate PATFO.
Excellent, this means they didn’t have to send out another 2nd either?? Fantastic trade, Graham, Bassey (w/ability to resign) & NOLA 25-2 for Barnes & an unprotected swap.

No way spurs are dumping champ on a friendly deal

One thing about the Spurs culture respected by every agent is they try very hard to accommodate their guys. It sometimes hurts them short-term, but can reap big benefits. This offseason Graham, CP3, Barnes all did them a solid, the agents know the Spurs will pay it back when called upon. Also, state income tax is a nice fringe benefit here.
Does anyone know if Spurs can reinstate Barnes kicker if they end up moving him down the road??
I would really like to see Mamu in a beautiful game O with Vic-Paul-Castle for 12-18mpg
great trade by Brian Wright. He's great when it comes to flipping contracts and cap space into assets.
- So much for the big purge.
- In terms of third center, presuming Bassey clears waivers and based on a typical ACL recovery timeline, opening night is probably pushing it, but it's close enough to not have to utilize a standard contract on one (especially if an emergency option like Mamukelasvhili is re-signed).
- Barlow has always come across as something of a malcontent (plus he lacks the girth/rebounding they need), so I get the sense it won't be him in the unlikely event Bassey is claimed.
- If necessary, Yurtseven and Biyombo seem the most likely alternatives.
Waiving champ would have been messed up. I don’t like him as a starter but he earned his chance to be here.
Guy put down the wrong champenny. Ours is better, tbh.
Assuming he keeps number 40, Barnes will be the 16th Spur to wear that number.
Willie Anderson certainly the most accomplished of the bunch, but here are others who have donned the 4-0
Gary Bradds 1971
Len Chappell 1972
Ansley Truitt 1973
Jerry Chambers 1974
Collis Temple 1975
Sylvester Norris 1980
Dave Corzine 1981-1982
Mike Brittain 1986-1987
Kurt Nimphius 1988
Willie Anderson 1989-1995
Joe Courtney 1997
Sean Marks 2006
Kurt Thomas 2008-2009
Boban Marjanović 2016
Tyler Zeller 2020
They added 3 new rotation players and could possibly add more with the room exception. I don't know how much more of a change y'all expected but that is pretty much what anyone should have expected.
Boban GOAT #40 tbh
Can't wait to see the new additions in the Summer League team.
I clearly meant in relation to this transaction. Champagnie, Bassey, Branham, Wesley and Cissoko were all rumored to be possible collateral damage. In the end, only Bassey was maybe sacrificed.
