The Warriors are in an unprecedented level of tax going forward. Miami was too. Cleveland would be in bad tax straights even without some of those bad contracts.The Spurs could not survive with that type of bill. They have to be able to keep a balanced budget. Irving isn't a top-five player at his position and honestly shouldn't get a max with a stagnating cap. But he'd get one if the Spurs traded for him. Unless Kawhi becomes Lebron, he and Irving aren't a le duo, and if Kawhi becomes Lebron, he doesn't need an Irving to win.
Irving is so bad on defense that I don't think people truly understand it. Acquiring him and hoping the team's defensive personnel can make up for it is one thing; trading your second- and third-best defenders for him is another.
The Spurs with Green and LMA have a better chance at a le this year than with Irving. Maybe three weeks ago when they had a chance to adjust that wasn't the case. But they can't fill those holes anymore. They'd become a mediocre defensive team and have no chance at stopping GS.people overvalue the garbage that this team has tbh. On one side you have suggestions of a trade without adding Aldridge in it (as bad as he is, he is the best asset that we have right now), on the other you have others like Chinook, DPG not wanting to trade LMA and Green for kyrie irving.
not often (ever?) a young elite player wants to come to SA, might want to take advantage of this rare opportunity
Rose makes better sense tbqh. He had a decent year on a horrid team, and he could be had on the cheap. It just seems like the Spurs have little interest at this point.
I like Uncle Drew a lot, but LA is going to have a very solid year next season. He has to redeem will be playing for his last significant contract, so redemption is completely necessary.
Rose could be had for a 1 year 3 million deal.
Rose doesnt change the outcome of a 4-0 warriors sweep
Kyrie does
Why in the world bring up that bag into a kyrie thread?
----------------------------------------
Agree, Kyrie moves the needle somewhat...perhaps one or two games, uhm
If part of it was switching Love for LMA would you bite?
Love next to Leonard and Gasol would make a ton of sense on O. Defense would slip though, but offense would be on Warriors level.
Not following how we would swap LMA and change for Kyrie and still have LMA to swap for Love... What is your complete trade scenario.
If we were to move LMA for Kyrie, we would have to get a big somewhere.
There are plenty of trade scenarios where we don't trade LMA for Kyrie. If we were trading Parker or Green or whomever plus picks for Kyrie, but the Cavs who might want out from Loves long term contract can get LMA and his shorter contract, they might want to do that and make it a condition of the Kyrie for whomever part of the deal.
Cavs aren't going to want both LMA and Love, and we'll need a big. But we lose defense and long term cap flexibility taking on Love's contract.
The Spurs have no chance against GS as currently configured and have no chance at GS if you just swap Green and Aldridge for Irving either. Going forward though, getting a 25 yo Irving is a no brainer to pair with Kawhi and you worry about getting other pieces next offseason. Highly doubtful the Spurs will attract a better talent via free agency. Green and Aldridge?
Anthony now does not want to go to Cleveland because James may not be there next year. He already had Rose as PG, and did not work well, if Cleveland signs Rose. He wants Houston or is willing to stand pat. Miami sending Winslow and Dragic might make sense, but unless Winslow ups his game it does not make Cleveland better. LMA, and Green for Kyrie and spare parts works, while sending Love to Phx for Beldsoe works. It also would make the current Cavs better. Suns may want a first eound pick from someone to finish the deal.
So when is he signing?
Can't believe there are idiots calling for Rose over Kyrie. Use your brain.
If we did land Irving though and it doesnt work out, we could trade him for some other top talent. We really cant do that with LaMarcus. Thats why its a win win situation. Kyrie is cheap and under contract 3 more seasons i believe
Gotcha. I just don't see PATFO being that aggressive and trading his French son whole he is lame.
PATFO probably arent even trying to make a deal. Pops on vacation and RC is probably like "we like what we have"
ha this is my gut feeling...
I highly doubt the FO is even trying
What could be better for the cavs than what the Spurs have to offer? (If they're offering) 2 legit starters and a possible third in Murray? That's a steal for a player that asked for a trade. LMA/LBJ/Green easily win the east this upcoming season imo
Well then you honestly do not know much about nba front offices tbh..
No doubt. They're content with what they have. I'd be surprised to hear that RC even put the bottle down and picked up the phone.
