Any decent SF's available with a sign and trade?

[exstatic]

Not a very good idea IMHO.

We're talking about covering maybe 10 mpg behind Kawhi.

You can buy the Summer League package from NBA.com OR...

Its a violation to post links to free tv websites. But just Google European sport free tv or something like that. There are European sites that will give you access to almost every professional league basketball game in the world, actually to any sport in the world. Qualities not that the best, but hey, its free and I basically just use them to watch the Spurs and Cowboys games anyways.

Thanks for the info!

Caron Butler after buyout maybe decent backup option

Caron Butler after buyout maybe decent backup option

Spurs had interest in him years ago when he opted for Dallas. Every time I see Wesley Johnson, he looks good, but apparently most of the time he plays, he isn't.

Every time I see Wesley Johnson, he looks good, but apparently most of the time he plays, he isn't.

Last year he shot just under 41% from the field. 32% from 3. Playing around 20MPG he averaged 2.5RPG and didn't do much to move the meter in steals, assists or blocks.

For a minimum deal he might be worth a gamble. But as we already have a stud in Kawhi I'm not sure why we'd be overly concerned with taking much of any risk behind him. Just get a guy that is going to be a solid role player and be content.

Do you think they're transitioning Diaw to the SF position after we saw flashes in the Finals, tbh?..

Could be an option if he loses a few pounds, as another poster mentioned in the other thread..

He can guard SFs as is. His weight clearly isn't an issue anymore.

Deshaun Thomas

Thomas isn't a small forward though. Sure, to have a future in the NBA hes going to have to figure it out, but hes definitely not there yet. That's why hes going to Europe next season.

[cd021]

As SF, only Wesley Johnson is left that could command more than a min contract and I'm not sure what kind of S&T you could do to get him.

Now, the true opportunity isn't a sign and trade, it's a trade and that will happened at the February trade deadline. Spurs have a lot of expiring contracts and will be fine with taking some salaries for 2014-2015.

As it stands the only team I can think that is looking at dumping salaries that way would be Toronto. An offer for a package of Amir Johnson and Landry Fields would be appealing to them.

Fields would be a good backup, he just can't really shoot.

Fields would be a good backup, he just can't really shoot.

He also makes over $6M per year.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

toronoto does seem like the destination. i can't think of anybody else who'd have interest in bonner. maybe atl, utah, orl, or okc? because of the spurs connection. acy, fields, turkoglu, oquin, davis, harrington, pj3?

[TD 21]

Not at all. Can't really think of anyone I'd sign directly from there to back up Leonard.

I'm just wondering how many seasons Singleton will get a pass before you admit he's a bust.

We're talking about a 13th or 14th man, which you seemed to comprehend when you said "doesn't even have to be decent tbh" . . . yet here you are, dismissing Singleton.

I'm pretty sure two days ago was the first time I've mentioned him on here.

Yeah, nothing says definitive bust like 123 games, spread over 2 seasons, for one of the most dysfunctional franchises in the league.

Except he is with the Suns, and he has a very valuable expiring contract of 8mil. Such a trade asset will not see a buy out.

If Spurs should target a Suns player, they should go after the nameless one. Trading Bonner for him would be wicked history twist...

You know the Suns don't have many SGs on the roster S&T for him, could include Bonner as well depending on the contract Neal wants.

Or you could give them De Colo, Spurs got his pick in the infamous trade.

Nameless one?????????????????????
Who is that?

Scola thread!

[xmas1997]

Wow!

[ace3g]

He only has 2 years left on his contract so would line up with the 2014-15 season Spurs seem to want cap space for.

And Phoenix would likely be happy to get the 2014-15 number off the books.

[DPG21920]

No thanks^

[ace3g]

Might as well do it now since today is the 6 year anniversary of the trade.

[Bruno]

yeah, I didn't bring the nameless one just to tease posters but because aa trade would make sense for both. Spurs got a solid player for the end of the Duncan/Ginobili era. The rebuilding Suns get cap relief for an aging player.

[Mel_13]

No thanks^

Why not?

Bonner plus excess guard(s) in exchange for Scola plus Wes Johnson (S&T).

Makes sense to me.

That doesn't sound bad at all, actually.
