Spurs trade ideas

JV is getting traded to LAL, book it

Given Jonas's propensity to make us his , this would be the worst imaginable scenario. Jesus Christ this guy must have some kind of personal vendetta against RC Buford or Breakfast Tacos: https://www.statmuse.com/nba/ask?q=j...stats+vs+spurs

A quick overview at all the vets from potential tanking teams who might become available in the trade market:

Wizards: Poole, Kuzma, Valanciunas, Brogdon.
Raptors: Poeltl, Bruce brown, Olynyk
Hornets: Miles Bridges, Nick Richards
Bulls: Vucevic, Lavine
Nets: DFS, Schroder, Cam Johnson
Jazz: Clarkson, Sexton, John Collins
Blazers: Grant, Thybulle, Robert Williams III, Ayton, Anfernee Simons
Pelicans: McCollum, Ingram

That's a nice list. JV, poeltl, olynyk, cam, pr Collins, are varying degrees of interesting

i know we've been down this road before, but i like john collins

he's had ups and downs but is still just 27

[spurraider21]

i also would like to see us toss out some second rounders in bulk in exchange for some lightly protected swaps. for all the talk of us having 2+ first rounders this year, we also have 2 second rounders. have 5 second rounders next year. rather do something with them than just wait for them to be sold for cash

we saw phoenix send some weak swaps to memphis for some second rounders. could try to replicate that

I would happily take Jakob back.

Would the Collins contract (lower amount and one less year) and CHA pick do it? Maybe add
Branham.

[ginobilized]

Jakob currently leads the league in offensive rebounds, that would be a huge bonus to go with not needing the ball, sturdy defense and that FT%.

He's 29, but, was always a great soldier.

It might... I'd think how they perceive Branham would be the main factor there.

Of note to me:

• estimated asking price on DFS is multiple SRPs, and there are multiple teams eyeing him
• Cody Martin (CHA) could be available
• Both Bogdanovic brothers supposedly available, although ATL may value their brother more than the rest of the league
• League execs say CHI's asking price is currently too high on Lavine and Vooch
• CLE is $1.8MM over the luxury tax threshold and are expected to look to shed one of LeVert, Niang or Okoro... CLE's 20131 pick may be in play
• DET's Tim Hardaway Jr and his $16MM expiring could be available, as is Beef Stew (4/60). Stewart I could see being interesting though it might be a little crowded with Barnes and Sochan. Stew shot 38% on 3.5 3PA/gm last year though... could be the right kind of backup 4 for us?
• Steven Adams could be available. Unfortunately his body can't hold up, and we're unlikely to do a deal with HOU. Always liked Adams though.
• Jarace Walker (or Obi Toppin) could be available - would love to see us get in on some of that
• Wolves already thinking of flipping Randle and Donte...
• Jerami Grant price tag is two FRPs
• SAC still looking to move Huerter

[LeBowen]

They're not even the same nationality, let alone brothers.

PATFO won't even consider him due to his personality.

• Jerami Grant price tag is two FRPs

[scott]

Damn, I never knew. I just assumed two kids named Bogdan and Bojan must have been brothers. Today I learned something new!

[baseline bum]

I don't think Naz Reid is an option, both as we don't have money free, and I think of the 2 PFs they have, Minny will opt to keep Naz Reid if they can.

Plus Reid already took less to stay in Minnesota once

[RC_Drunkford]

at Kuminga wanting 35+ million per year while averaging 13 PPG with 29% from 3 and 60 FT%

Lot of tempting stuff in there. I just dont know whether it makes sense for this team quite yet. They've played the fewest road games on the one hand, but on the other they are just now getting the full team back. If they are still in the 10th post closer to the deadline, i say they should make a move. But if theyre trending down hold my powder dry.

Dude's gotten worse this year. Seems kinda clear Jonathan Kuminga ain't it.

They kept him instead of trading him to the Clips for PG.

[LeBowen]

Warriors really overvalued their young scrubs.
Didn't want to trade Kuminga or ing Podzemski for Markkanen, either.

Incompetence ruined Curry's final chance to compete properly.

Podzemski is giving me really strong Chris Duarte vibes. Duarte was awesome as a rookie, fell off pretty hard as a sop re, and is now out of the league.

Though PG13 hasn't been much better and is a china doll on top of that.

[KingKev]

Steven Adams would be a great pickup but as Scott said don’t see these two teams dealing favourably.

Duarte isn't out of the league quite yet, but he's almost there. We'll see him tonight against Chicago (if they peel him off the end of the bench, that is)

Here's a new idea for a trade target, kind of in the same vein of when we traded Derrick to BOS (a still relatively young guy, on a nice deal, hasn't really had an opportunity to shine yet).

Aaron Nesmith from IND.

25-year old, 6'5" SF with a 6'10" wingspan on his first year of a 3/33 (flat structure).

.376 career 3PT shooter, shot .419 on 4.6 3PA/gm last year. Ranks in the 91st percentile in TS%, and above average in most advanced defensive metrics. Ranks in the 75th percentile in CraftedOPM and 62nd percentile in CraftedDPM (here is his Crafted Player Profile: https://craftednba.com/players/aaron-nesmith).

Have zero clue whether the Pacers would be interested in moving him or what it would cost... but he's an interesting prospect. He's been mostly a starter the last two years for IND but is now tucked behind Nembhard and Mathurin (and he's currently out with an ankle injury)

He's a solid role player, but I feel like we've got no use for more off ball guards.

Assuming Devin and Castle are long-term pieces, the plan is probably to find another point guard who'd enable any combination between those three and then find a fourth guard on a minimum contract to soak up remaining minutes.
I think it would be way better for Castle if he doesn't have to play any more minutes at SF. Same goes for Devin.
96 minutes available between two guard positions, 32 for each of the 3 players would be perfect.
Champagnie can also play some SG minutes if needed.

Idk if PATFO would go this route, but that's my idea.

Coby White is supposedly available for trade and I wouldn't be against it, he'd fit well into this.
Or Sexton. One of those two as 6th man, triple threat point guard.

[scott]

^^^ I'd view Nesmith more as a replacement for Keldon's minutes than anything else
