Would not mind trying to pry Cam Johnson from BKN
Cooling yet quite high on Lauri. Harris would be realistic and okay but not too high on him.
but please no Young, Klay, PG, Garland, DLo.

The difference between Spurs and Pacers in that regard is Spurs have cap space to sign Laury straight up the following year and can be patient with this
This loophole with unguaranteed contracts has been closed with the new CBA. They can trade his contract with only the value of the guaranteed portion of it (2.85) or guarantee all of it and trade it as a 12.65 contract. Teams over the cap can’t trade a 13 mil contract for him and waive him at 2.85 mil.
Good info thank you.
Man that sucks but I understand why you'd want to close such an exploit. Still say a contract is a contract, you receive whatever clauses or aspects with the trade. It should still function as it did before with the other team, and all executable components still valid and functional.
I called months ago that ATL would send him out on a lesser offer, rather than let us have him for anything less than all of their picks back.I didn't want DJ back but the Spurs could have easily beaten that offer. I honestly think the Lakers offer would have been better tbh
They were in the lottery this year, and just traded DJ for nearly nothing!Good news for us though I still don’t think they are lottery bound if healthy.
Old folks home.
What would be hilarious if the spurs trade for Murray from the pelicans for something else that doesn't involve atlanta's picks that would be hilarious
Don't really want him back though.
Would you do Johnson, Collins, Jones, Atlanta pick for Tre and Hunter?
Imagine trading for Lari Markennen knowing that you’re gonna have to offer him a contract worth over 200M. Use your head guys—Spurs ain’t doing that.
True, but it’s still a coupon for a team looking to shed salary. Like Milwaukee could send us Brook Lopez for that contract (and maybe another piece) and they save boat loads of cash on the difference given the new salary cap rules.
He says with absolutely no proof the Spurs made any offer at all that ATL rejected requiring their picks back instead. Just like these horse takes that ATL will require all their picks back for Young. If the Spurs had the best offer in the table that includes the 26 swap and the 27 pick do you think they take a lesser package elsewhere with none of their picks? If they decide to move on from Young they will take the best package period.
not only that why trade any real assets for him when he could be a FA next yr
They gave Vassell a dump truck of money based on potential. It’s 2024 NBA and top 60 players get 200M deals. Just imagine how much Trae’s next deal could be. That number scares me more as he is not a two way player.
Vassell got about $90M less over his deal than that Lauri figure,not counting unlikely incentives. Not a dump truck of money.
Cam Johnson and KCP
make it happen
Well, Immanuel Quickley got 175M, and he's a below average starting guard... I would not give up too much for Lauri given his situation (expiring on a difficult to extend contract), but come next summer I'd sure as offer him him that and more... some of these contract sound ridiculous, but if you want an all star caliber player, that's what you have to pay. Otherwise just draft and develop, or pay a lot of assets for one that is underpaid with several years remaining. There's no way around that.
^ this guy gets it.
Kevin Love declined his option.
Max Christie just became a RFA. Weren’t the Spurs high on him in the 2021 draft?
Wasnt expected to return yesterday but picked up his option the next day
