Hypothetical 2012 Trade Deadline: Is Draymond Green Worth Three Years of RJ?

[K...]

wtf blaming me for bringing Kyle in this discussion

SAGirl introduces dat Kyle slurping everytime she posts tbh

You have Kyle hater ptsd. You have tried so hard to be a cool edgy Kyle hater but your mind kept rejecting the idea because Kyle is actually good! But you have to tweak some posters and hate Kyle.. Uh it hurts. Now you're seeing Kyle everywhere.

[dabom]

Dude you don't get to the nba with no skill. He didn't turn over the ball, he was an effective defender who used his length, he actually shot the ball with a rate greater than 0%. C'mon man, chill out with nonsense.

Again with the bottom totem strawing. "His field goal went up"

"He's in the NBA he must be good"

I don't know why I have to explain seeing as how its common sense. We are describing these players in comparison with other NBA players. Is it so hard to comprehend brah?

I don't think Kyle is good tbh.. I'm consistent tho saying the same since he has been drafted. If saying dude sucks and laughing at ideas like he is the future ginobili or dude is Bobo pupil is trying to be cool and edgy then so be it...

I didn't think dude would keep doubling down on the trolling when his schtick has backfired already but he's down deep. No way to go but further down that hole. PTSD or some .

2 DeJuan Blairs on the same team? whats this? multiplicity?

They're both the re ed version.

I guess we can't all be insightful enough

do you have any insight at all?

It's just obvious that D-West is still a legit starter in the league and that he and LMA would work just fine as a starting front court with Kawhi.

david west + lma "would work just fine"

chinook:
wouldn't trade parker for dragic
would start david west
wanted boban + sully over gasol
would be fine if the spurs offered jordan clarkson a max deal

Jump on the 3 point shot. ElNono

I've been saying this guy is wack for years. Everyone see's it but just ignores him I guess. Much like the "thinktank"

[ElNono]

Won't on Chinook for having an opinion, tbh... When you have Culbear and Avante, anybody else looks decent, IMO...

I always thought the Think Tank was ridiculous though, even back when Bruno was running it...

[Chinook]

Thinks that laughing at something makes it false.

[Chinook]

chinook:

would start david west
wanted boban + sully over gasol
would be fine if the spurs offered jordan clarkson a max deal

wanting an even worse contract for a guy who quits on his team if he cant dominate the ball
too dumb to even know a max for Clarkson was like $14 Million a season.
will be the first person to about Gasol if something goes wrong, especially if he can throw in some emoticons
not understanding opportunity cost worth a damn.
STILL pimping that trade.

my schtick is doing just fine tbh... at this point KA is at best a marginal end of the bench dude. His shooting is horrible from 3 from 2 from everywhere and his passing that supposedly is his strength is average at best. Only bright side is his surprisingly enough defense and rebounding. All that is good and all but without a reliable 3 pter he is doing no good to the Spurs

i really started questioning chinook's takes this summer. i don't remember him being right a lot in general tbh.

[NameLess Scrub]

Heck took Kawhi 5 seasons to burst out the door as a top player and command the ball and that was with the big 3 limping on one leg metaphorically.
know.

You could almost say.. literally limping.

[NameLess Scrub]

Draymond is crap I don't get why people really want him. He's a system player that benefits from playing with the league's most popular team. I doubt the refs would allow Draymond to get away with the fouling he does on defense if he was on the Spurs. Also factor in Draymond is a big time talker in the lockerroom which would get him kicked off the team. No way would Pop take from Draymond like Kerr does. The moment Draymond would mouth off to Pop is the moment he's either waived or on a bus towards Austin.

This makes sense to me. His apparent reliance on ref help and a system makes for a big question mark regarding his effectiveness in another team. Also, he hurt his team this year in the Finals by doing one too much of his antics, or maybe one to the absolute wrong player.

Spurs were unlucky, tbh. I still feel they should have repeated from '12 to '14 or '13 to '15.

[TD 21]

We've had our share of disagreements, but I can appreciate that he at least tries to contribute to the quality of discussion.

As far as the question, I'd only even consider trading any championship, let alone one like '14, for a young, transcendent player in the making.

This isn't quality discussion though. Nothing makes it quality. Writing 20 ing paragraphs does not make any of it quality.

And what do you think about all his ty comments or takes throughout last year only? Would you start Dworst as starting center for the Spurs this year?..

could have probably repeated from '03-'07 also.

He never is. Dude is the Donald Trump of ST.

no. Getting rid of was one of the happiest days of my sports fandom.

Spurs should've known firsthand that there was a reason the Warriors wanted to trade Captain Jack. Even then, trading a first for a past prime guy shooting 37.4 FG? WTF, tbh.

You don't really understand the NBA at all, do you? There are trades that are not about player value, but money. Spurs saved almost exactly $11M on that trade, for a very late first rounder. The most cash you can dish out in ALL trades for an NBA calendar year is $3M. That trade was and is still viewed as a triumph around the league, and really has nothing to do with Green at all. GS draft-rented Ezele for a couple of years, and now have nothing left to show for the $11M they spent in Jefferson the next season.

There is a flawed assumption behind this whole thread: that the Spurs would have used the #30 on Green if they kept the pick. Nothing could be further from the truth, and all you have to do is examine his role in the 2016 Finals loss to see why. He's an out of control punk who thrives on not being guarded as the 5th option in a lethal lineup.
