    The players that need to be traded *cough* Mills and Gasol *cough* can be traded.

    Everyone but DD should be moved.

    Yet it won't happen. I guarantee this team plays juuuust good enough for PATFO to excuse themselves from making the roster better by moving their favorites.
    The way this team performs is largely irrelevant. The injuries alone will enable PATFO to convince themselves that nothing drastic needs to be done. The real question is whether ownership will be deluded by such nonsense.

    Bertans + Mills + both picks should be enough to get a good player.

    Keep Murray too. We know he's a good defender at least, and an impressive rebounder, and the team can always use that.

    Maybe Walker. Don't know yet.

    Otherwise, as you say.
    Tbh, I forgot about them.

    But, yes, DD and the only prospects we have that are worth a damn.

    Sadly, you're right.

    It’s gonna get uglier the next few games. I hope it’s Pau and Mills or Davis for a defensive player

    So Spurs lose KA to Grizzlies and with the win they have the best record in the West and they lose Kawhi/DG to Raptors and they have the best record in the East/League. Meanwhile the Spurs are out of the playoffs.

    I hope it is Mills, Gasol and Marco (Bertans can play), use the pick of toronto if it is the case, 2 wings that can attack the rim and defend at level nba and we will be compe ive again

    the lack of slashers has been criticized (even by me) for more than two seasons in spurstalk, even when we had Kawhi, only Simmons was the other guy with this ability (Manu was already an old man), relax

    I am sounding like a broken record, so here we go again. This team was built pre trade. Every pre season decision was based directly before the trade happened. All before the Spurs decided they could not keep Leonard around. They addressed our biggest issue with shooting and built around Murray, Leonard, Gay, and LMA. That is a great defensive core, with possibly Green staying. They let Anderson go in favour of shooting. They went after the best affordable shooter in Beli. They resigned Forbes. They let Parker go in favour of White. They went with shooting as their priority.

    With the trade, we all of a sudden had no defenders. Our best shooters are our worst defenders. The Spurs will make changes. I am unsure if it will happen during the season. Keeping those two 1st will hold far more value on draft day than any day before it.

    Yes, I suppose tanking is a move. Haha

    Supposed to be a good draft, and those first round picks could be mighty nice.

    This makes a lot of sense.

    With the caveat that we will never know if a regime change might have changed things.

    There are many 3 and D guys playing in awful teams out there: Ariza, Porter, Carroll, etc. who can probably be had if you attach some value to Gasol and Mills.
    The Spurs would be lucky to get 50 cent on the dollar on those, and none of those guys would move the needle.

    If they really want to show a change in direction, they would move LMA and whatever is left of his contract, but you gotta get another all-star level caliber player, preferably with a backbone.

    This. Hopefully something can get done before LMA demands a trade and depresses his value even more.

    That's last ditch stuff. Spurs weren't blindsided by the Leonard trade demand by that point.

    How about just stand pat and improve our draft position. Murray will be back next year and we still don’t know what we have in Walker. I do think we need to move on from LMA but not for nothing. We need to exercise patience.
