    Probably not. I don't think two-way QOs work the same way.
    OK. I did not know that a 2way QO was possible.

    I'm not sure it's different, but his QO is really low. The dude has two years of accrued service, so he's not a rookie. If he signed a full NBA deal, he'd get paid more than this. Regardless, I think he still looking for something, and if he finds it, PATFO would release him from his obligations. But they may not be against keeping him, even if it's as roster compe ion for someone. You could end up being right after all.

    No, you are correct. I found something that said it was a $77,000 2way QO. That is what I missed. My bad. I was just confused about how this situation fit in the picture.
    Thanks for the clarity.

    Would you mind sharing that? As I said, I had no idea there was an actual two-way QO. I just assumed there would be. Seeing some explanation for how it works would help us in the future.

    Is Rudy really that pathetic an option at SF? He’s not that slow, and yeah his D would be an issue, but he’s not exactly a lockdown defender as it is

    Something on Express News on June 30 by someone I want to ignore and don't want to bring attention to ( initials JY). He said the 2way QO thing was a work in progress, but basically the offer was 77000.

    Nate Duncan had somethingnon this on a recent podcast. But the QO is just for the two way deal, so just seems like a way to protect your prospect somewhat.

    For one reason or another, these are all terrible options.

    Williams has been a PF for a while, but if Gay is, as expected, a poor fit with Aldridge, DeRozan, Murray and the Hornets were willing to attach a protected 1st, I'd look at trading Gay and Cunningham for Williams midseason. He could be a good fit as the starting PF.

    Possible trade and/or '19 free agency options: Carroll, Ennis, Winslow, Middleton, Snell, Butler, Chandler, Ariza, Aminu, Harkless, Sefolosha, Oubre.

    Copied from the "Roster" thread...

    In today's NBA, you don't even need a true SF. Lots of teams run with three guards on the floor, a stretch 4, and a traditional big. Basically, all positions have "moved up a slot." What used to be a 2 is now a 3, what used to be a 3 is now a 4, etc. Lebron James is a PF in today's NBA, for example.

    That simply is not true, tbh.

    GS plays a 7 footer at the 3.
    Cleveland played a 6'8" 260 pounds beast.
    Celtics play a 6'8'' Tatum.
    Toronto will have Kawhi at SG and 6'8'' Anunoby at SF.
    Rockets played 6'8'' Ariza.
    Utah has 6'8'' Joe Ingles.
    Sixers have 6'9'' Covington at SF and 6'10'' Simmons at ing PG.

    And I can go on. Spurs need to get taller on the perimeter.

    Spurs have supposedly had interest as recently as last season, but his 3-point shooting, which was terrible to begin with, has not only not improved, it's actually gotten slightly worse in his 3 seasons.

    They can't afford another core piece that can't shoot and the Pistons, with Robinson as the only other legit SF on the roster, can't afford to trade him without getting one back. So I don't see him as a realistic option.

    basically the current idea is sg's and sf's higher and pf/c smaller (and faster)
    ps: and about Harris for Gasol + pick? Harris from last season on a team with Demar and Aldridge would be great

    Good points. The DET roster is messier than ours AND they’re in a ty cap situation. Just Incredible.

    I still hope that they try to address that gap in a meaningful way, not just Blossomgame/GLeague call ups.

    I think we really lack at this position. I know the NBA is moving to a more positionless type game, but we really lack length on our wings. We have tons of guards. A lot of 6'3"and 6'4" types. We don't have the 6'8"or 6'9" long wings.

    What do we think about a guy like Bruno Caboclo? He is only 22 still. Is 6'9" and has a7'7" wingspan. He shot 34% from 3in the g league last year. With 6 attempts per game.


    Could we pick him up as the project for missing out on OG?

    the sad thing is as it moves towards "total basketball" or position less players the most useful position is a 6'5-6'10 players aka SF and yet we haven't had a real backup (i didn't like anderson) SF since kawahi got here and we finally got one in rudy and now we were back to just 1.

    It's too bad the Spurs roster is so full, or it would be easier to take a chance on a younger guy. Of course Pop would probably prefer vet given the youth at many positions already. Do we have a 2 way contract slot available?

    Like others have said I am hoping the Spurs are working on a trade for a 3/D SF. If the trade opens up a few more roster spots I would like the Spurs to sign Corey Brewer.

    I actually think wingspan is more important at the SF position. It allows you to cover more ground and as result improves the defense and rebounding. The offense can always be improved as we saw with Kawhi and hopefully we'll see with Murray.
