Fischer: Spurs Repeatedly Mentioned By NBA Figures As Potential Home For Young

Okay give all their picks back + 8 for DJ and 1st.

Nah

Tanking is no longer an option with Wemby around. Spurs went 13-14 in the final 27 games of last season due to Wemby's emergence. Hawks aren't tanking either without regaining control of their own picks.

I'm not asking to tank, I'm just saying I would rather lose every game of the next season than to 3 (or probably more) seasons of the Wemby era by commiting the mistake of trading a bunch of assets for Trae Young, a player that will never be part of a championship core (at least not as a prominent figure).

[DAF86]

Of course they are beggars. They haven't signed even a good player since Lamarcus, and that had more to do with Lamarcus wanting to come back to Texas. This team has zero promising assets. Those quotes from Brian Wright should tell you that, where he mentioned how they have tried to be aggressive, but haven't done a trade worth anything other than bottoming out the team.

If the Spurs are trash again this year, picking in the top 5 again, I feel pretty strongly we are going to start hearing some "will Victor stay in San Antonio" talk. You don't win DPOY playing for a bottom 5 team. You don't win MVP playing for a bottom 5 team. You don't make all NBA playing for a bottom 5 team. All the things he constantly says he want's to do are impossible until the Spurs put some real talent around him/

Do the Spurs need to rush it? No. But the Spurs are not some single en y picking players off a conveyor belt, they are in a league with teams that are constantly trying to improve and get better. Every time the other team makes a trade...it's a trade you can't make. Eventually all the players you want or could help you get locked into contracts with other teams and then the next thing you know you drafting the Branhims and Wessleys of the world while giving the Zach Collins of the world 17 million because nobody else wants your money, they got it from somewhere else.

Looks like Spurs fans are going to find out the hard way real life isn't 2k.

I'm all in for doing winning moves, tbh. Trae Young just isn't it, tbh. He's extremely flawed and he would cost way too much. A Trae Young trade is the kind of move that sets franchises back for years. Sure, you would win more sooner, but you will never win the one that matters. And before you know it, we will be doing mental gymnastics trying to figure out how we can rid of him.

Nah

Dude. Give ATL their picks back plus 8, for 1st and DJ. We draft Risacher at 1st, Castle at 4. I’d throw in Keldon.

DJ, Vassell, Castle, Risacher, Wemby

NO lmao. That’s awful.

[Dverde]

ATL would want #4 not #8. They’d want Castle to replace Dejounte. I don’t think the Spurs want to deal with Dejounte anymore and won’t do it unless it’s a bargain price.
