LMA and Rudy are washed, can't trade them for anything.
I still think Demar is a good player, but just an awful fit with the young guys. How could it possibly play out?
Spurs are still 2 years away from being a serious playoff team. Demar won't make the difference and elevate the team to like 4-6th seed. Young players need to learn how to close games out.
He's just slowing their growth.
And 2 or 3 years down the road, Demar shouldn't be anything more than a 6th man for a serious playoff team.
Just get some value for him, plenty of teams would be interested. Even a S&T is possible.
Spurs don't have a single useful defensive player over 6'6 right now. Can't hope to make the playoffs like that. Even if you do, it's a first round sweep by an LA team. Worst case scenario, no matter how you put it.
I'd rather watch Keldon/Lonnie/Vassell take 20 shots every game than have a false hope of making the playoffs for a couple more months.
Patty should also go, but we all know that won't happen. I'm sure there are some desperate contenders that would give up a pick for him.
Poeltl is an embarrassment, should be traded before everyone catches up on how awful he is.
So frustrating to be a fan of the only lottery team that constantly favors washed up veterans over young talent.
Not to mention that who knows if the season will even end, every team that's a first round exit or worse should get rid of valuable veterans.
A bit of a rant, but I had to do it.
