Clips doing the Spurs a favor. At least Blake will have someone to keep him company behind the bench. I loved young Gallo but injuries have robbed him of any potential defensive ability.
He was one of the guys I was hoping for.

Other than injury worries, Gallinari would be one of a pickup. I'm hopeful about Bertans, but Gallinari is a known quan y. Once again, he's not a superstar - the Spurs aren't going to get one of those on their budget. He would be a plus on the roster. I'm sure they would factor the injury history in before signing him.
You are rolling loaded dice either way. It's worth a roll of the dice on a min deal for both, but neither choice is likely to pay huge dividends.Also, great point that SPURt made about Aldridge being a center in today's NBA. He needs to lose weight, get in super shape and embrace it.
Sign Andrew Bogut to bang against teams that have the more traditional bigger centers. I don't want Splitter, I don't trust him to not be injured and that is saying a lot considering I feel more comfortable with Bogut being healthy.
If you sign one of the two I would seriously shelve them until march and then pull em out and dust off in an effort to be useful in the playoffs.
Yeah, I think this is the way to go. DeMarcus Cousins has lost weight and looks in great shape. LMA needs to do the same and move to center full-time. Give it one more season with that change and see how it goes.
And since the Spurs are re-signing Mills, may as well make the Aussie connection and gets Mills to recruit Bogut.
The idea of Bogut is awesome but that glass body. How do you feel about Baynes? He's painfully average but he's durable and will body people. Too bad Dedmon is likely going to be too expensive. Pau is really unattractive but I think we're stuck with him. I agree Splitter is done.Also, great point that SPURt made about Aldridge being a center in today's NBA.

I'm more concerned about his defense than his injuries, tbh. I think Dekker is good enough to fill in for the games Gallo misses. When Gallo is playing, he's the dynamic wing scorer we've lacked for as long as I can remember.
Hayward might be worth it as well, being younger and just coming into his prime.
I actually have wondered if precisely having that conversation with Lamarcus (about having to play more center in this modern NBA) is what made him want to ask for a trade. Lamarcus really didn't do well in two big lineups in the playoffs. But I think I am going to be disappointed if I start thinking about Pop innovating his offense and going away from the same LMA postups.People love to hate Pop here but I think this season is going to be one where he does something innovative to support Kawhi. I don't care what it is as long as he isn't force feeding LMA to start every game to feed his ego. The Spurs were smart to wait on trading LMA. Millsap isn't $10 million a year better and I'm sick of his game.
I love his offensive game and if healthy he will be a huge help for the Clips. Do you see him playing the 3 with Blake and DJ at 4/5? I see him as a 4 on the Spurs. I don't think he fits the Spurs because their main goal is beating GS and GS forces everyone to switch a lot. Injuries would make Gallo a target in that series.
Oh, and one more thing LaMarcus needs to do. Work really hard on adding a 3 point shot during the off-season. I think he could have a monster year if does these three things : 1. Get in super shape. 2. Move to center full-time 3. Add a three point shot to his game.
I may be in denial about the mills contract, but you are in denial about who Lma is.
No, I hope you're right about the Mills contract. I was just saying that it wouldn't be announced if it's not almost set in stone.
I know, but we can only hope.
Thanks. Those contracts. Sheesh. If west had come sooner.... imagine
Jeff Green available. Haven't heard anybody mention him.
Cause he sucks.
Having either Bogut or Baynes will help the perimeter players greatly. The Spurs painfully lacked good screeners to free up the guards/wings to either shoot or drive.
Very true
That's the other reason I want Bogut over Splitter or any of the other traditional centers. I want his illegal screens to free up shooters or drives to the basket.
Trust me, you don't want him. He's garbage.
What's the SL and bench looking like right now?
And third year is a team option too if they want to move his expiring after just one season.
Another FO making good deals and making attempts to surround their star with talent while PATFO inks playoff scrubs to long term deals.
