I mean more of a big wing SF/PF player, Lonnie is more of a SG.
Sorry, I meant the full MLE for next year, not a long term one. Basically, bring back Gay the use the available money on Taj Gibson. I think Spurs beat the Nuggets with another solid big man. Thad Young or Julius Randle would be better, but I don’t think either is realistic for us.

timvp said that he was drafted on the basis of setting great picks at USC, and rolling to the rim. If that's his skill set, he should ing stick to it. He's a walking disaster handling or shooting the ball.
Taj is getting to that point where he can no longer switch out effectively, and would get pick and rolled to death in the playoffs, much like Beli did this year. Taj from 4-5 years ago would still have value, but he ain't that guy any more.
Spurs need forwards who can defend and shoot the 3. A player who can't do both of these things shouldn't even be on their radar
or derozan who does neither
Definitely over blowing things to make yourself feel right. Whatever.
Metu is a second round big with good athleticism. Let him develop a little before your incredible basketball mind shoves him aside.
Wish we could move the midrange king
Trade Bertans for a late 1st
PG: Murray/ White/ Mills
SG: DeRozan/ Lonnie/ Forbes
SF: Gay/ Luka Semanic/ Isaiah Roby
PF: Aldridge/ Grant Williams/ Ben Moore
C: Poetl/ Metu/ Eubanks
With this line-up, we go to the Finals. Its a complete roster with no handicaps at defense. Everyone is switchable. Adding three players with tons of potential. Thats still 14 players, room for one more with the MLE.
Watching some tape on Neemias Queta, he looks like an interesting prospect.
He is raw as but I think Timmy could really help him develop and reach his potential
true but Pop plays him out of position. He's a 2 not a 3
Pop don’t even play rookies. Bertrans barely played in the playoffs, yet without him we are going to the finals the following year
In this scenario Gay and Aldridge take up a lot of minutes allowing the rooks to grow through the season.
that line up doesn't make it out of the first round. Use the MLE on somebody significant instead of adding 3 rookies
Umm why cant we do both?
I count 15, fwiw.
Take someone out and put in Nikola
Ewwbanks duh
The clippers made the playoffs with 3 rookies. Don't go full pop and think only veterans can get it done.
Never go full pop!
As long as Pop is the HC, you gotta tailor your projections to his propensities.
I agree. But he also said last year was one of his more favorites. I wonder if he is softening up to younger players. And gets to be a bit more of a teacher again, rather than a manager
So did the Spurs and I said they would again but be a first round out like the Clippers. It's about improving and you don't improve by adding 3 rookies. Need to add at least 1 good 3
What are you proposing with our 3 picks? I already said we are able to use the 3 picks AND the MLE to improve. How much change do you think will happen this offseason?
yet when you predicted next years roster you added 3 draft picks and Eubanks while also trading Bertans
