Butler's only 35-- he might have one more run in him.
Off the top of your head, who are a half dozen bargain basement bigs you'd consider?
Robin + DaVinci Code?

Obviously not for Mills. Maybe for DeRozan.
Yikes.
Haven't really thought about it because I'm not even sure it'd be worthwhile to sign a replacement but even someone like John Henson would probably be okay enough. Harry Giles is talented enough to be an interesting target too.
I like Harry Giles as a gamble too, even though it's based entirely on catching him at just the right time post injuries and third year in. His advanced stats so far are a horror, but I think it's a worthwhile risk for a 22 year old that was once the best high school player in the country.
Giles would be nice.
Health is his main issue.
i'm with timvp about Poetl.
If he have something like 10 millions/year i will probably let him walk away, he showed too much flaws in today's nba : no post game, not very good at finishing, bad at the FT line, not very good for switching on the perimeter ....
Depends on the price.
Your Statement is so wrong on so many levels:
- He has a Post game, just uses it not enough, what actually is a problem. Lack of Confidence, or the order to pass first than score, i am not sure. But when you watched him in College or Toronto you have seen that he has a postgame.
- He is a good finisher around the rim (just look at his efficency). Dont dwell to much on some bad misses, everybody has them even LeBron. Overall he finishes very well.
- FT Line, yes that is a problem, but also one that can be fixed
- Defending the Perimeter as a Center is actually one of his Strongpoints. He is mobile enough to not get Guards to pass him to easy. He made many Blocks defending Guards. A reason, why with him the overall Defense of the Team goes way up.
1 We don't have the same definition of post moves, can you tell me one post move he can do regularly ?
2 He is not a strong finisher for me , he lacks some agressiveness that's what i mean but i'm ok he is not that bad
3 at least we agree about the FT and that's an important part of the game
What i mean is not that he is bad, he have some qualities also but i will not give him too much because of the flaws. I could be wrong.
1 - Back to the basket, pusing down defenders to get a good look. AS i said in College and Toronto he did that. Something changed in SA why he does his moves rarely. Dont get me wrong, i am not saying he is a beast in the post. I am just refuting your claim, that he has no moves.
2 - Aggressiveness has nothing to do with finishing. Finishing means putting the ball in the basket up close. Which he does. I dont remember TD to be an aggressiv finisher, he was rather smooth. In my book what is important, how much of his chances he converts into baskets. Poeltl has a high efficency in that regard. At least thats my take on what finishing is.
3 - Yep. Something that can be fixed. 70% would be enough. Nobody demands him to be a 90% FT shooter.
Spurs should have invited Trump to speak to the players
Make pop quite!
You pee on little girls.
Thanks for your explanation. I get your point which focuses more on what lies in the future in terms of cap space. That is something that I am not really clued in about, but from what similar centers are being paid in the current free agency (Mason Plumlee - 3 years 25 million, Derrick Favors - 3 years 30 million..).. I am guessing Poeltl will be valued in that range as well.
Lastly, while I get your point about rebuilding and unlocking value going forward, I just disagree with you that letting him go for free will pay the Spurs better than slightly overpaying him by $4-5 million relative to current market value. The reason why I say so, is that for our guards and small wings to be effective (and that is the thrust of our rebuilding core), they need adequate shot blocking and screening actions by a competent center to unlock their own utility and actions. And that is where I find more value in Poeltl during rebuilding than looking elsewhere in the short-term.
So I was mixing up player options with non-guaranteed years. Got it.
My bad DPG21920. Your trade idea works.
Yeah, then they could just claim that they won the NBA championship by a huge margin.
With Becky Hammon around, Trump might wanna reach for that pussy and grab it
What happened with Trey?
He stay.
Thanks man. Not surprising really.
