Clan the Spurs fan said the Spurs have been in contact with Alexy Schved once Marco gets traded. Grain of salt
Beli and Carroll are both obvious cut candidates and very easily done. But SA is going to be way down the list of destinations for guys bought out. Wouldn’t expect much there

Schved right now playing overseas
If the Spurs don't make a trade, nobody will come here after a buyout. I am reminded of Groucho's remark, "I refuse to join a club that would have me as a member."
no, the team needs a double arm transplant.
i literally can't remember his play but would still take him over forbes in a heartbeat.
Great, another combo guard. That'll move the needle.
YOU might, but Pop won't. Got to get somebody to keep Demarre company or replace him if we move him.
I doubt it. Buyouts go to real contenders to try and get a championship. Spurs had a chance when they were good. But no one is getting bought out and hoping to join a team that is not even currently a playoff team.
The team needs a head transplant.
Just saw a story that the Spurs have been getting interest in Poeltl, but the asking price is too high. Also that the Knicks are asking for a lottery pick in exchange for Marcus Morris.
Both are worth what you paid for them.
"If you've heard this story before don't stop me, because I'd like to hear it again."
I might be wrong on Carroll. I thought he was only 1M guaranteed next year but looks like his 6.5 is fully guaranteed. Changes buyout some.
if rockets move capela for covington and looney then that's a good exchange for them and a trade i would make if i were them.
Great move.
I'd like to see the Spurs make win now moves.
Not that there are any collection of moves that could make this awful team a contender, and not that I would advise making moves that put your future at risk.
But what's the point of only trying to make the 8th seed (which SA is desperate to do)? Just to chase this one silly record? If we're trying to compete to make the playoffs then why not try to compete IN the playoffs?
When I get exceptionally bored, or momentarily forget which team I root for, I give the Trade Machine a light workout. I always look to package LMA with at least one of Demarre/Forbes/Marco and Dumbmar with the player(s) left over. That's when it usually dawns on me that I am looking at moving waaaaay too many pieces to be remotely possible in Pop's domain. So, having plummeted back to earth, I come here... The kind of boldness you and I are looking for will have to wait until the Old Asshole is gone, and then he will have dug us into a hole so deep not even Sean Marks could dig us out.
yup and minny gets dlo and gsw gets capela and tucker. win-win-win
GS might have a SL with Cucky, Klaynus, Tucker, Green, and Capella next year plus a high lottery pick because they were smart enough to tank. Yikes.
Now that I think about it, it could make more sense for GS to get Minny's collection of picks after Covington goes to Houston. Either way, they might just have finished their one year rebuild. And all they needed was just gather one nice asset and tank this year to do it.
Meanwhile, in SA...
Damn when you put it that way.
Or they could get Minny's picks after Covington is moved. Either way, they might have just possibly completed their rebuild.
Funny what a little FO ingenuity can accomplish.
Maybe some smaller trade would be more realistic here just to get rid of Carroll:
Carroll, Forbes for McCaw, Johnson
Carroll for Crowder or Hill
Carroll, Forbes or Belli for Olynyk
Carroll, Forbes or Belli for Kidd-Gilchrist
Just some examples but you get the picture
