DDR for Parker
We need a 10th rotation player, for the reasons that I explained, and I hope we trade Pau to get that player. But if not, then Pau got be that guy for us.
According to woj bulls won’t keep him. If he clears waivers I expect he will be a laker
The dude needs to retire.
Maybe this is his version of a farewell tour and he’s gonna sign with as many teams as possible
Just want to point out I said the Spurs should have traded Pau for Crabbe and one (or both) of Portland's picks during the 2017 off-season when they wanted to dump Crabbe's contract. Spurs could have drafted Kuzma/John Collins along with White.
In fact if the Spurs made the 2 trades I mentioned during the 2017 off-season + not re-signing Mills the team would be:
Mudiay/White/Forbes
DDR/Marco/Crabbe (expiring this year, so a valuable trade piece)
Gay/Johnson/Bertans
Collins(Kuzma)/ Bertans
Drummond/ Poeltl
Walker and Murray as well but not part of the DC.
Although I wouldn't have done the DDR trade but either way the team would have been a lot better and younger.
Spurs should have done what Sean Marks was smart enough to do. Take on young guys with ty contracts for cheap instead of banking on imaginary FA signings. The Nets went from an awful team in an awful situation without their own picks, to a young, up and coming team with talent.

Manimal to the Spurs...
Damn yall come up with some ty trades.![]()
Bottom line is there probably isn't a trade out there that moves the needle much. I read an article that Hawks are willing to move Dedmon for the right offer, but any deal would probably involve the Spurs taking back Bazemore or Lin to make salaries match. I wouldn't be opposed to moving Gasol, Forbes, Cun, & Poindexter + TOR pick if we could bring back Bazemore, Dedmon, & Bembry + 2nd.
I think that's a better team this year, but may not be worth cap implications the following year as Spurs probably couldn't retain Dedmon, and could keep them from resigning Gay. Bazemore & Bembry contracts do parallel contract of DDR preserving flexibility after 2020
If the Spurs want to keep 1st round pick could probably do similar trade where Spurs send 2nd round pick and get back Bazemore, Dedmon, & Carter (I think Vince can be effective in small minutes on a decent team)

With how the team is playing, other than adding an all-star which is next to impossible I don’t even know what they need that could actually help? They don’t need anymore depth.
Im all for trading away Mills/Pau for salary reasons and gaining flexibility but I don’t know of anyone I can think of that would crack the rotation honestly.
Confused why the spurs are always connected to Stanley Johnson lol
Supposedly article I read Gm that drafted Johnson in Detroit now works for the Spurs in some way maybe some type of Gm or scout. Just familiarity guessing
There's an article stating Spure have interest in Tristan Thompson and Alec Burks
Assuming it's not true, but that would suggest a Gasol deck-shuffling trade. Actually, it'd have to be Gasol and Mills for those two, unless Pop wants to add Gay into deals for just say eff it an deal DeRozan.

Here is the link
Allen Crabbe would fix our “I miss Danny” problem. Virtually the same player with a little more athleticism
Stopped reading at Sam Amico.
Crabbe is a horrendous defender. Also hasn't played in months while getting near $20mil/year.
Interesting for sure, from a total salary standpoint. I don't know which is tougher to believe that they would trade Patty or move on from DDR. Love Patty as a player but wouldn't be disappointed either way. Burks/Thompson fairly similar to Bazemore/Dedmon.
Of course with Spurs you never really know if just rumor or something actually there. Have you heard anything outside this article MoSpur?
Plenty of posters here are clueless and it shows. Crabbe is injured, he ing blows on both sides, and he has a player option for 18.5M next year NOT an expiring contract.
Can we permaban posters that bring this scrub up in the future?
If Sa knows they are operating over the cap next year anyways, I can see them having interest in swapping Gasol for TT. TT is younger and if they view him as better, having TT on the books where Gasol’s money is, is one way to try and improve the team for next year and has no impact on anything beyond that anyways.
Also, as M4T has said, it would seem likely SA could even get a draft pick from CLE for that deal since it would save CLE from taxes which they should not be paying with a roster that bad.
What? Yes, they do need more depth.
As of right now, the Spurs have only 9 NBA level players. Any injury to one of those and we are royally ed, like we saw with the extended time Gay was out. And even without injuries, we all know Pop would rather go 10 deep.
The contract sucks but I’ve watched him play quite a bit in the past. Always looked good to me anyway.
Saw some article with no legs or sources about Spurs interest in Tristan Thompson. At times, our offensive rebounding lacks. His contract is horrible too though
