Official Trey "Not Davis Bertans" Lyles Thread

[HankChinaski]

I'm just wanting to see contract numbers. A one year deal would be the most favorable option.

[ceperez]

Perhaps we can consider him like a Kyle Anderson. But with more atheticism and willing to shoot the 3.

[Slippy]

So hard to get excited about this one. Wonder why. Haha

Spurs getting leftovers that nobody else wanted.

Prove us all wrong. Trey

Has he actually signed yet

Has he actually signed yet

Nobody wanted him and beggars cant be choosers.its a win/win for clutch sports and if he turns into anything well def lose him

[spurraider21]

We can blame for the Carroll salary+ years increase and the Samanic reach. Brandon Clarke will haunt us for years to come, he was one of the surest picks in the draft and would’ve filled this problem we have with the PF position from day 1

carroll contract change was also specifically for morris. we had to turn carroll into a sign and trade to preserve MLE for morris. sign and trades requires 3 year deals minimum, so we HAD to change carroll from 2 to 3 (3rd year has like 1 mil guarantee only). i cant ride RC for the bertans/carroll moves because they cant anticipate morris being a

ive been critical of the samanic pick, too. but at the time was in favor of nassir little because i thought we needed an eventual derozan replacement. if we were going to dump bertans and try to ugprade at the 4, yeah clarke made a ton of sense. would have given us a lot of what we wanted out of morris

Has he actually signed yet

he will have a recovery season, then will sign with the Lakers or with the Nets

[JADG79]

We want to make from lemons, lemonade with this sign.

We are hurting ourself

[EricB]

The Spurs couldve traded for Jerami Grant, no?

No

Lol at people thinking that Samanic is a bust without even setting foot in an NBA arena while being 19 years old. Spurs will develop him, he will be absolutely fine if he has the work ethic.

he's not a bust. he was just overdrafted, given that the spurs dont seem to expect him to be a real contributor to the team anytime soon.

I'm hearing about this Clarke guy and i made a little research, his ceiling is low, nothing special imo. Spurs did well to draft Samanic and its gonna show after two years when we might be actually able to contend.

There is a scenario where this guys gets signed with the lesser exception (biannual or whatever it’s called now) and the spurs retain the full MLE right?

[Blackhaus]

Maybe that thing air in Denver messed with his game and he can return to form from 2 years ago and build upon it. He’s with the right team to develop, hope he uses this time wisely.

there's no point in preserving the MLE. there's nobody worth spending it on. better to preserve the biannual for when we actually need it.

[playblair]

= austin daye

[BatManu20]

2-yrs/$11M. 2nd year is Not guaranteed thankfully. Not bad.

[Mr. Body]

Thankfully not much.

[Blackhaus]

2nd year team option?

Truth, but was just thinking about the buy out market (Eg to claim Iggy for example)

[vander]

Man, trading Bertans for nothing was such a stupid move. Unload Belli instead or offer more years to Morris, must be that Pop doesn't like Bertans.

[Seventyniner]

This offseason is still a C+ for me. Lyles is more of a stretch PF, I was hoping for a SF that could play PF.

The only thing that's a stretch about Lyles is the idea that he will turn into a useful NBA player.

[cool cat]

Has he actually signed yet

Him and Rich Paul show up to sign the contract and the building is empty.

[ace3g]

The only thing that's a stretch about Lyles is the idea that he will turn into a useful NBA player.

And that is part of the problem - Lyles feels more like an insurance policy than a rotation piece.
