    I think y'all are overrating Mike "Underrated" Conley, tbh: http://www.hoopsstats.com/basketball...on/13/1/12/210

    https://www.reddit.com/r/nba/comment...r_jeff_teague/

    Spursgreg9683 1 point 6 months ago I think Conley right now in the next year. Over the long haul, for the remainders of their career, Teague is the better more consistent bet.
    For the Spurs, I think I'd take Conley if I had to pick one of the two. He seems like he'd fit really well with the structure.


    Mike, give us the scouting report on Jeff:

    Spurs won 67 games with a garbage PG who cant defend for . Conley is not a savior but spurs are so much better with a PG who is not a liability. anything is better than porky

    Conley is going to turn 30 in a year so I would pass up on him. His asset is his quick speed and even with that he shoots a ty FG percentage. PG's that rely heavily on speed and athletic ability historically become trash once they enter their 30's. It's hysterical how you guys hate Parker and want this guy but don't realize this guy will be Parker part 2 within a year or two.

    For the kind of money that Conley will get, no way we should sign him. Parker 2.0 waiting to happen, as you said.

    Neither should we go after Teague, who will also command a bigger contract than he is really worth. I hope we go after Jordan Clarkson. We need to start focusing on younger players than we have historically.

    Clarkson isn't a point guard ala George Hill & the Lakers w/ their 60 million cap space have no reason to let him walk. Besides, Clarkson is almost 24 not 19.

    As far as Teague, PATFO could cox him into taking a Danny type contract if they can get their hands on him for a season. Otherwise, just let him walk & use the cap space to bring back George Hill or if there is enough cap space go after Jrue Holiday.

    I prefer Teague because of his age, none the definitive solution.

    Makes sense. Trade centered around a Teague for Diaw/Mills swap works. ATL doesn't really have much leverage since everyone knows they want to start Shroeder.

    Porker makes sense for them since they are a loser franchise that needs some championship pedigree & Schroder could use a vet that knows the playbook cover to cover.

    For example, Kidd/Nash had Kevin Johnson as a mentor.

    One takes assets to acquire. If we're talking about moving Parker for Teague, I'd prefer him. Any other players or picks, and I'm dubious. But Conley isn't even on my radar.

    Spurs won't have to get rid of Parker for Teague.

    Teague has 1 year left for 8 million, no team is really going to give up a lot if they don't have word that he'll re-sign after next year ( this hurts his value).

    At the same time, the PG position is the most saturated position across the league. Not a lot of teams have that need. It's basic supply and demand economics -- less demand/higher supply -- lower asking price.

    I'd prefer taking a 1 year flyer on Teague and give up Diaw/Mills and maybe a pick (if needed) to get Teague, rather than overpay Conley for 4 years after he just came off a major injury.

    If Spurs traded for Teague, they can reassess their options next summer. Re-sign Teague? Look to trade TP if he regresses again (he'll have an expiring)?

    Conley is much better if healthy but that could be a big IF.

    Teague reminds of Tony a little bit and has been used like that by Bud.

    At best he is about league average though so I wouldn't like to commit anything too seriously his way.

    Conley went from underrated to overrated in the past years. If he is the best PG on the market, then the market is ing pathetic. San Antonio should be out of it.

    He is great to have when you're paying him bellow average money (like Memphis in the past 5 years), but he is not the kind of player you pay 100m to sign. That's for moronic teams. I really hope that the Spurs do not pursue him.

    I'm ok with Teague depending on the asking price and ideally, it would be better if Parker could be somehow involved.

    Only way Tony would be involved is if a 3rd team is involved. Hawks are committed in moving forward with Schroder getting 30+ minutes at PG. No way Hawks would want to pay 15 million for a 15 minute back up PG.

    Clarkson would be the ideal guy Combo guard who can handle the rock, pull up from 3, has a quick first step and can fly at the rim. He's from San Antonio, went to school here so he knows what to expect here and has family here.

    Now sure Lakers have tons of cash to match but drive up that market and they might not want to do it.. Or offer a nice trade.. Mills/Anderson, Diaw and a first. Clarkson is a better pick than anything they'll get at 29 and it helps recoup some of those expenses. Lakers get a shooter, Anderson is a bench guy with handles fits in with the UCLA ties, Diaw is a vet who will enjoy the sun over there.

    Clarkson would be MUCH cheaper than DeRozan b/c max contract have tiers based on experience.

    He would be a cheap rental for next season & if he walks, use the cap space on another 2017 FA (G.Hill). Patty/Diaw are expendable assets so it's a win-win situation.

    I always liked Knight and as Phoenix still got a kind of jam at PG, I could see them trade him, but we would likely have to take Chandler back too, but if Duncan will retire, that's fine for me.

    Yup, which I'm hoping Mitch just likes the name recognition and chases DeRozan and overpays for him..

    Clarkson, Green, Kawhi, Aldridge, Militunov would be a great combination to build on for future success. Spurs would then have to start shopping Parker or at least make him look decent coming off the bench to package him next year as an expiring to get bench help.

    Kind of bummer we don't have our 2nd pick this year.
