Cory Joseph on his way to Toronto

[LkrFan]

Damn the Guard position is now even thinner..Who will even handle the ball next year...Parker for 35 minutes?

Please shoot me.

at Enrique playing 35mpg. This ain't 2004 hommie!

[baseline bum]

Didn't LouWilliams sign with the Lakers?

Hate to be the one to say it but the Lakers won't be terrible next year.

Hibbert/Sacre
Bass/Randle
Kobe
Lou williams/Nick Young
Clarkson/Russell

Looks like about a 35 win team

That's if the old Roy Hibbert makes a comeback. If it's the Hibbert of the last couple of seasons, they'll be getting a lot of Ping-Pong balls.

[LkrFan]

So excited to talk weak smack about our 3rd string PG that you didn't even notice this thread already exists and is multiple pages deep. Sad times in L.A, I can't even laugh at you.

You lose depth. Patty is somewhat injury prone. Enrique will have to play big minutes more often than not. None of that DNP crap CIA Pop been pulling lately with your guard rotation. That Dude gone too.

[TheGreatYacht]

As long as we have Mills we will be Okay. Parker, Mills, Green and Manu make a pretty good backcourt. I'd like to see Parker average about 30 minutes a game and Manu about 20 with Mills and Green filling in for the rest. It does however mean we need someone to backup Leonard. Any Idea who we can get?

Kawhi not having a backup = more KawhISOS

Ah . Shoot Apolisoc now.

[ducks]

Lol lma kicked him out of country

That Hibbert is never coming back. I'm basing the 35 wins mostly on Randle, I think he's going to be a really nice player.

[LkrFan]

Patty?

Injury prone.

[Axegrinder]

Matter of time my son.

Referring to not being done with signings..try to keep up

[Uriel]

Pretty annoyed that Toronto would play the situation like that. They clearly don't plan to give up an asset to the Spurs (otherwise, the withdrawal of the QO would be unnecessary). So the Spurs are letting Cory go for nothing. If Manu retires, it will be a pretty terrible sequence of events for the Spurs.

Don't you think it's more likely that CoJo's representatives reached out to the Spurs and asked them to withdraw the QO after Toronto made an offer they couldn't refuse?

Best of luck to Joseph. Hopefully he gets the playing time he wants.

After the very strong start to FA signing Green and Leonard up plus Aldridge, the second half of FA would suck losing their depth. My guess? They fill those slots with capable guys and have a strong team. I hope anyways.

Losing depth is the payoff for maxing out an all star free agent.

[ElNono]

Injury prone.

He played more games than Kobe in the last 2 years...

[apalisoc_9]

Patty?

and if one gets injured?

[ElNono]

and if one gets injured?

Manu (if he comes back)

[LkrFan]

He played more games than Kobe in the last 2 years...

[ducks]

then you get someone
what happens if leonard gets injured or pick eye again

[Mugen]

LkrFan is good people but he's literally one of the stupidest people on this board when it comes to basketball analysis/takes....and this board has ducks posting on the regular....

Like I said, good dude but he's probably spinning that Hibbert + Lou Williams is better than signing LaMarcus at this point tbh.......

[Raven]

patty receiving a price for having an awful season... yaaaay

[Chinook]

Don't you think it's more likely that CoJo's representatives reached out to the Spurs and asked them to withdraw the QO after Toronto made an offer they couldn't refuse?

I agree with part of that. I think they withdrew the offer because Joseph asked for it, just like Neal did two years ago. But the deal itself wasn't all that great, which is why the Raptors didn't engage the Spurs in a sign-and-trade. They only wanted Cory if they could get him for free. That's what I was annoyed at.

I wonder how much Joseph's even going to play for them, given that they have their starter and just drafted a PG who isn't a great fit next to Cory. Save for the fact that it's his home town, I don't think it's a better position for him.

Well, when you put it like that....

Spurs saw they couldn't keep him anyway? They'd do that. I still hope you're right about the offer.
