2-Game winning streak and the sniffers are back at full force.![]()

His value as at an all time high as a Spur. Which sadly makes me think he's getting that max extension![]()
Didn't know Aminu had gotten so bad. Glad we missed out on him in that case.
Trade pop to the bucks!
Averaging 12 pts, 5 reb, 1 ast, and 1 block a game as a rookie. Shooting over 40% on 3s and over 65% on twos. Jumps out of the building, catches everything, can roll to the rim, can switch defensively, plays multiple positions. He's literally the perfect PF.
We're starting Trey Lyles...Yeah, yeah Marcus Morris ed us over, but just imagine if they picked up Clarke.![]()
Ain't happening. If PATFO still have plans to compete this year (Popovich not trying to finish a stellar career by ending playoff streak and looking bad) DeRozan's finishing the season a Spur. His trade value isn't changing one way or the other, anyway.
As others mentioned, getting a fairly serviceable 3D by shopping Belinelli, Forbes, Carroll is what needs to happen.
Those types aren't getting them that though. Even my preseason proposal of Lyles and Belinelli for Marvin Williams probably requires a minor asset attached.
For a marginal upgrade to a team with a 1st round ceiling either way, what's the point?
Might as well just start Gay and Walker, move Lyles and Forbes to the bench and utilize Lyles/Carroll situationally.
DD is so fun to watch. But I love old school. That post move on Hayward was great.
Over the last 9 games the Spurs are #1 in ppg, fg %, 3 pt %. They are 7th in 3 pointer made per game. That’s not a bad sample size.
What kind of pick are people expecting in return for DeRozan. If it’s anything past 5th pick, it is a crap shoot in terms of talent.
Highly unlikely that DDR opts out, none of the cap space teams are giving him long term deals because they are mostly rebuilding teams.
Pick in the teen's seems realistic.
Initially, I thought the best way to fix the spacing issue was to convince DeRozan to shoot from the three while Aldridge gets the ball at the post. However, Aldridge stepping out to the three-point line is the better adjustment because:
A. LA is the better shooter between the two
B. DeRozan is an excellent facilitator and offensive player
It took us quite a while to get here, but like what the other posters have said, this is the more sustainable offensive solution while incorporating the talents of our three young wings.
He'd had to play in the G-League for 2 years
Spurs could still trade him in the off season, assuming he opts in on June 29th.
No trade required, just don't resign Forbes and Belli
I think we get immediately better like Toronto
We trade him where he wants to go, like AD
DDR as the HOTS is what u think we need to win a ring? LMFAO!
We would NEVER win a ring with LMA and DDR ...matter 9f fact DDR would completely himself vs LeBron and Kawhi...I don't care about stupid regular season records and playoff streaks...if it's not in service of winning a ring, we need to get rid of it
Turning things around TO GO WHERE, EXACTLY? MEDIOCRELAND???
-Spurs probably won't get out spent on Jakob, the main benefit of him only playing 18 mpg. $5-7 million per sounds about right.
-Don't see why Mills should be on the trading block, he's actually probably worth his contract with how well he's played this season.
-Beli is almost certainly gone, if not before the off-season. I could see him getting brought out as a solid to him so he can go back to Philly, or something.
-Forbes is interesting, he's an Unrestricted Free Agent and is having a bad season but has a rep as a high percentage 3pt bomber. He could get decent money to be a bench rotation player. I could see some team giving him 2 years, $10 million.
The Spurs; however, has a number of other options at 2 guard, namely Lonnie Walker and Derrick White. Spurs could opt to let Forbes walk and have Walker replace him in the starting lineup, Walker has two seasons left on his rookie deal after this one. Year 3 is when 1st rounders usually get their shot to prove, themselves.
It won't be capable of a ring...the raptors were a better team than we were and they preinnially themselves in the playoffs mainly because of him
...because they got Kawhi, Green and Pascal turned into a star, but would otherwise be exactly the same.
