21 days until Pau starts making noise about playing time and his role next year
Hopefully Spurs are active whether it's as buyers or sellers.
Probably gonna stand pat like usual cause no one will want our scrubs. And Bryn is “untouchable”
We’re happy with what we have
Stonecutter pounding the rock, SPAM etcWe’re happy with what we have
There might be a trade but knowing the front office it will be like Pondexter for Lance Thomas or something
Yeah it’s tough because I want them to make a move but as crazy as it sounds this year, I think low key the spurs could be trying to build their reputation back up. Kawhi and his camp made the spurs look pretty bad among players with the misdiagnosis, strict environment, etc.. having a washed up vet like gasol and paying him lots of $$$ this late in his career, staying loyal to guys like mills, giving Quincy a chance to revitalize his nba career.
Spurs have nothing to trade with, nobody wants Gasol and Patty is a lifer
A team that’s not playing for the playoffs will take pau, as long as a 1s attached
Just get rid of Pau. I don't care what you get back or even if you have to attach the Raptors pick to him. Just ship his ass out.
I’m just anticipating Pau’s next extension
Pau is the only guy I want traded at this point, realistically speaking. I would think the other team would want to unload a long term contract of a player that does not play well right now (see Boris) for whatever reason but his production will go up when he joins the Spurs. And I don't see many players/teams fitting that description. Which does not bother me that much, since we shouldn't have to pay him 16mi next season.
But am open to ideas, Pau for who and why?
If Demarre Carrol could be had for cheap, you get him. Other than that, why would you want to ship out Mills who’s been good?
Think Pop sees writing on the wall Gasol just not NBA player anymore feel like he will play that loyal role
21 days til the Spurs stand pat
Terrance Ross + John simmons for pau + Cunningham and a first. Money works but pop doesn’t seem to be okay with Simmons.
Simmons sucks and Pop doesn't like dunkers anyways.
I don't see the Spurs being able to do much with the assets they have but I also don't think they'll want to keep both firsts. They may dangle the Toronto pick for something, I just hope it wouldn't be for an expiring UFA.
There are a few teams that have to make moves but Sacramento is the key as they can help a lot of teams with their cap situation and they're bound to make moves. Depends on how early they begin doing deals.
Maybe Sean Marks can do us that favour
Pau for Allen Crabbe, the Nets can use Pau's expiring contract, and the Spurs on the other side can use a 6-6 wing that shoots 39% from the three point line (both career and this season!).
rebuild your reputation with whom? with ex players wanting their last payment? nobody cares about Quincy,Spurs is the only good team that would give him a chance, and that's exclusively about Pop
impossible, Nets is a playoff team
Knowing Pop, the trade deadline will once again come and go. No upgrading and settle for a first round exit, if that. Stick with the 'win one, lose one' formula. Seems we've got that down pat.
For Gasol's contract, you would want to look at teams that are willing to get rid of a longer contract. On top of my head, that's James Johnson, Courtney Lee, Lance Thomas, Marvin Williams, Evan Turner, Bazemore and Snell. They are not difference makers and I am unsure if losing offseason flexibility that could result in the loss of Gay, is worth it. I like James Johnson as I think the Spurs really need a hard worker. Gasol for Lee and Thomas would add a whole bunch of depth but unsure if any of them could be a rotational player comes playoffs, so what's the point.
Snell would be my chosen on this list, I do not believe James Johson is possible (your contract is bad)
No team is taking Gasol without us sending out a pick or a player with obvious potential in addition.
It's that or we take a slightly younger player with a equally horrendous an longer contract that doesn't do much for the team overall this season and makes things worse going into the off season
The waiver wire is where the Spurs will look at anything that could aid them.
The current roster make up isn't perfect an guys like Dante, Quincy, an Pau are not ideal but they at least know their role an are not a cancer on the bench.
The 8-9 man rotation going into a playoff is already there. Yeah they could use one more wing but that isn't going to miraculously fall into our lap like Diaw did.
