Bah we always, always chase low risk low reward options.
I think we need to chase a medium risk, high reward player.
No more D-League possibly NBA capable players please.
Jason Thompson! Love this dude's game. Just a dream though. Sorry Spurs Fans but the team we have is the one we are rolling with. No one is getting traded. They are just waiting for Kawhi and Green to comeback so they can release Brown.

The FO is not going to know what to do when the big 3 start retiring. They may actually have to do their Job! I know crazy thought...
Matt Bonner for Anthony Davis
Yup, we're not going to get anyone via trade. For the FO, it's all about getting our players healthy and carrying wastes of space like Ayres, Bonner, Joseph and De Culo to another le opportunity. That plan came close to working last year, hope it finally works this year. Who knows, maybe Brown sticks as the backup 2 with Marco and Manu playing more at the 3? Or maybe he gets dropped and we bring up Josh Howard?
Jason Richardson is about to come back from injury. Good option for the Spurs to improve the bench. Good 3 pt shooter who has hit big shots in the past. He is 6'6 and could back up Leonard, too.
I'd still take him, although that would get him benched (rightfully) by Pop. Duncan blew wide-open dunk tonight as well.
that was when sacto was up 30 already and with 2 mins to go... Pop wouldn't just bench him, he would probably cut him first thing in the morning...
One more guy the Spurs could look for is, CJ Miles of the Cavaliers. Has shown decent metrics and is an expiring contract as well. The Cavs are a mess and there is no idea which direction they might seek to go - tank & pick again from a better lottery or try to salvage something from a flawed roster through trades and try reaching the postseason in the putrid East.
Aminu is the only Pelican worth trading for tbh.
Ayres/De Colo for Aminu tbh...
Fail, Epic.![]()
Looks like they completed the buyout

Bonner
2nd rounder (2014)
Futue 2nd rounder (protected)
for
Aminu
Then again Smith and Anderson are out for quite a while. Baynes could be included because he's cheap and not under contract next season.
Parker-Mills/Joseph
Green/Marco
Leonard/Manu
Aminu/Diaw
Duncan/Splitter
I think Aminu could end up in the starting lineup. Would allow Diaw and Splitter to come off the bench and help cover Mills and Beli defensive shortcomings. Aminu could potientially be able to cover the stretch 4's in the west (Ibaka, L.A., Dirk)
That would be cool.
I figured. They need to decide right now rather they want to tank.They're pick is owned by Phili, unless they wind up with one of the top 5 picks in the draft.
I wonder if the Bulls would consider moving Boozer for a player like Eric Gordon.
He has plenty of talent and maybe better than anyone they can (realistically) get on the open market
injury prone but has been healthy this season in 42 game : 43%FG/ 39.3% 3PT 15.8 PPG
He is owed $30 million over the next 2 seasons but they don't have to pay Boozer next season (whether they were to amnesty him or not).
Boozer
Dunleavy Jr.
For
Eric Gordon
Al Aminu
http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=pl8p
Bulls would save $3 million next season from moving Dunleavy Jr. They would have a core of Rose, Gordon,Buttler, Gibson & Noah .
They would $58 million in cap next season. They could also have 3 first round picks (depending on whether Charlotte & Cleveland's pick are in the top 10)
New Orleans gets out of Gordons deal a year early (they would save $15.5 million). Boozer's expiring contract could be enticing at next years trade deadline.
I don't think CHI would do this. They could amnesty Boozer. Trade Dunleavy for a low draft pick. Not be stuck with sourpuss Eric Gordon.
He has potential to be very good. He just needs to stay healthy (I understand him heading to the Bulls puts that into doubt, everyone on that team gets injured for some reason)
After Melo, there isn't really a viable option as a co superstar player that they could land.
Miami's big 3, Dirk, Monroe (RFA), Duncan, Stephenson, Gasol (Pau) Randolph, Bledsoe (RFA) these are the best available in the off season. Most of these guys are in their 30's or highly unlikely to leave because their team can match.
Cutting Boozer and moving Dunleavy would put them around $45 million with room (roughly to add a max free agent). Or they could acquire Gordon and use free agency to draft and sign good role players instead of swinging for the fences.
Pretty sure NO is not going to gift us Aminu....I'm also pretty sure they could get a lot better deal for him besides bonner and 2 second rounders...as much as I would love to get rid of bonner and replace him with Aminu...NO would laugh and hang up the phone.
I do think SAS are going to do a trade of some sorts. I would expect something minor, because they don't have the assets to do anything big. Dunleavy or Jason Richardson veteran type player to back up SF. I would imagine Green, Bonner, Baynes, CoJo, De Colo are what they are trying to sell. I think this is the final year for Timmy and the front office knows it.
