What was your Porter trade?
He's incredibly mediocre. He'd strangle any attempts at further improvements for a long time. It was never going to happen.

They got better to go where? Houston is all about C.Paul, if he's injured all the time or not the same player they are done, Portland is the definition of treadmill team.
Outside of getting rid of Gasol we can't do much else except get someone from the buyouts. We'd better not squander picks for minor upgrades pls.
The fact that any of you think there is a conceivable trade the Spurs could make to contend with the top tier teams in league with LMA/DD as our best players is mind boggling...this roster ain't doing against the likes of GS. Spurs are better off maintaining flexibility. Trading for Derozan to begin with has turned out pretty bad, it would be dumb to set us back even further. Spurs should be looking to trade DD more than anyone else next to Gasol imo
Some dirty low down!

^Pretty much. Spurs have no assets. The best we can hope for is a Gasol dump and, even if they did have assets to swing a move, you're not winning with DD/LMA. Spurs are in NBA purgatory.
100% agree, but I know that won't happen unfortunately, so the best next thing is trying to be as good as possible with our two flawed offensive options.
Slow clap gif..
As I’ve said I think being the 2nd best team is up for grabs. I could see a handful of teams playing gsw in the west finals. I don’t think the spurs are too far from Denver, Houston etc
How the do you get played this badly by Dell Demps? Magic is in the discussion for worst GM of all time.
100% agree, even though i don't see anyone wanting to get DD from us. I'm pretty sure Toronto was the only team that was willing to give us a pick in addition to the players in the Kawhi trade thats why we did business with them. In other words we had to do it.
Demps giving Magic that Pop-demanded middle finger.
It wasn't about competing this year, it was about next year when the league will be in disarray with so much movement that they'd have a chance. Not a great chance, but a chance in what would probably be Pop's last year.
GS will lose Durant and Cousins with another year on iguodala. Lakers are no guarantees to get enough around aging LeBron. Raptors could fall apart, Celtics' could split, etc. Chris Paul aging and Harden beginning to burn out.
They'd have a shot.
Waiving Pau and adding a couple of first round picks to Austin so they can get over themselves won't help the Spurs.
So it is now reporting to report on fanboy reporters who work for the same sports network.
They're ing salty right now
hope I’m wrong but I think that confirms we’re doing nothing lol
Denver is very deep, we continue to underestimate them but back to the point, i don't think our goal should be to finish second and then get stomped by GS. We need to gather assets but we don't have a 26 year old Tobias Harris to do it now. Pop has to retire and we need to tank for at least 2 seasons i'm afraid.
At least Pop did his job here, the Lakers tbh.
Really don't understand the Otto Porter Jr love in this forum. He's a solid player and would probably be a good fit on this Spurs team, but this guy is nowhere near worth near what he's getting paid. He's never averaged more than 15 points per game and is getting paid $26 million this year and $27 million next. C'mon. That's nuts. If he would have been traded here this forum would explode the first night he would've went 1-7 from three point land.
the amount of butthurt Laker fans on that twitter thread is epic
I'll rejoice if the Lakers don't get .
It's glorious tbhthe amount of butthurt Laker fans on that twitter thread is epic
