All NBA Denfensive team was he not? There’s the actraction to Spuhs.
Alexey Shved ripped Kawhi a new asshole that one time in New York too.

Maybe they wouldn't, but they're trying to compete for a playoff spot next season and they desperately need a starting PG. They also have Bridges (who they just paid a premium for) and Warren at SF.
but he graded out poorly on outdated stats that were primarily relevant to high volume offensive players
I guess I wouldn't have as MUCH of a problem with him if his contract were only two years, but it's four years, and will definitely impinge on the total rebuild that is to come. , LaMarcus may actually want out when this all shakes out, and the rebuild may start now. I just don't see him as anything that you can't get in the late first or even second round of the draft. The Spurs definitely don't like paying top dollar for these types of players. They get them cheap, develop them, then cut them loose, and let someone ELSE pay them.
I like Covington as a win-now piece, but half the fanbase here would hate him after a few months, tbh
He's essentially a bigger 2016-17 Danny Green..
Yeah, in my dream scenario, the Spurs would have done a deal on draft night to end the Kawhi-sis and acquire Bamba as part of the return. I think he will be a major force on defense and an extremely versatile offensive player. I love that guy.
See: Green, Danny; Mills, PatrickI like Covington as a win-now piece, but half the fanbase here would hate him after a few months, tbh
I have a hard time envisioning Pop coaching a rebuild.
He’s literally a worse all around version of prime Danny but on the same contract as Danny took. Like, Danny was taking less, but Covington took more than fair value.I like Covington as a win-now piece, but half the fanbase here would hate him after a few months, tbh
Half of the fan base here would hate anybody that the Spurs get in the Kawhi trade. I'm convinced even the ones who are down with the trash the Lakers have offered would immediately start hating the Laker trash once the Spurs have a losing streak. Better yet you would see instant regret for doing the trade in the first place.I like Covington, but half the fanbase here would hate him after a few months, tbh
He probably won't.
If Pop wanted to retire he would have done so before the draft. Pop's remaining on board is a clear indication that he intends to try to construct a "compe ive" team now around LMA.
If LMA wants to stay. He may or may not.
Pop's not going to just step down until he knows the lay of the land, what's going down.
green signed for 4/40 at a time when the cap was at 70 mil. so on an annual basis, that was about 14% of the cap
convington signed for 4/46, which kicks in now, when the cap is projected to be at 101 mil. so on an annual basis, that makes up about 11.4% of the cap
he's on a friendler deal than green was
Green played in a great system with 4 hall of famers.
Covington is a great role player. I think it's 50/50 Jaylen Brown never becomes that good tbh.
Pop will stay in some capacity regardless and if new stars like Murray and Lonnie want him to stay I think he would at least part time
Spurs fans are different, though..every fanbase likes/hates different types of players based on being bored of what they're accustomed to watching..
For example, Spurs fans tend to be enamored with volume scorers on other teams..half the posters here loved Jordan Clarkson a few years agoSpurs fans love volume scorers because it's something the Spurs never look for, which is why there's so much excitement over a Rudy Gay, for instance..
They lacked athletic players in the past, which is why so many loved Simmons here..
Spurs look for role players that fit in a system, which is why you see so many fans here grow tired of those guys..I like players like that, so I'm a fan of Covington, but I'd bet anything that half the posters here would detest him by mid-season..
agreeLmao, I agree some of these offers aint worthy of a top 3 player, but man Spur fans are ing idiots that overrate the out of their own players while criminally underrating other teams players. Kuzma a "slightly more mobile Bertans" are you kidding me?
Agree with DPG21920 and spursraider21 on Covington. The problem is, even if Aldridge is retained, the lack of a play maker on this team would render Covington about as useless offensively as Green last season.
Not surprised Fultz supposedly isn't in the 76ers offer. Didn't think Spurs would want him and he's more than likely too much of a question mark right now for the Magic to give up Isaac or Bamba or the Suns to give up Jackson.
Saric, Covington, Heat '21 1st, minor pieces, offers no possibility of a star for at least 3 years and probably not period.
Friendlier? They paid him almost $17M last year! The figures I quoted were the remaining part of the deal.
im not saying convington is some prized piece that we need to center a deal around, but i think under his current contract he is absolutely an asset. so i dont see why you would voluntarily turn him down as part of a package.
There's at least one player on the court that's tired of those guys too.
He hasn't been on the court in quite some time.
who gives a what they just paid him. we're not going to be retroactively on the hook for that
going forward he has 4/46 due. those are incredibly friendly terms. they frontloaded his contract because they had cap room. we'd be benefiting from that.
he signed a 4/64 deal, but about 16 mil of that was added to his 17-18 salary, as he was already under contract for that year.
