Yeah, and adding a free agent with our MLE. Bertans is not a significant to this team. If theres someone with more potential, you go for it. Again, what are you proposing we do? How much different than what I proposed do you think this offseason should become?yet when you predicted next years roster you added 3 draft picks and Eubanks while also trading Bertans
The spurs and clippers are coming from different spots. The clippers weren't even thought to make the playoffs. We already are a playoff team. Adding talent weather from the draft or veterans doesn't matter. But adding talent through the draft builds for the future.
I don't see it. Not as long as Pop regards LMA and Dumbmar as the core.
Nobody said they shouldn't add draft picks, I said they should not add 3 of them
So what do we do with the three picks we have? Do we trade one away? Youre so vague, man. Im not sure youre aware we currently have three picks to use. Two first round picks and 1 second round pick.
This is what you said, if you can count that's 15 Players and this line up doesn't go nowhere. Matter of fact as long as Golden State keeps the band together nobody out west goes to the finals besides them. You said THIS roster goes to the finals, so the MLE doesn't matter here since you didn't add anybody to it.
PG: Murray/White/Mills
SG: DeRozan/Walker/Forbes
SF: Morris/Cameron Johnson/Belinelli
PF: Gay/Bertans/Hachimura/Metu
C: Aldridge/Poeltl
something like this makes way more sense, especially if you got a C like Eubanks as a 2-way-contract. I still think a little trade would help. Would most likely get rid of Belinelli since Mills won't be moved anyway, but it could be Bertans or Forbes also. Maybe a sign and trade with the Pelicans and Stanley Johnson. He's an RFA so getting him since he's out west would be pretty difficult.
Cam Johnson is a very seasoned college player and knock down shooter so he could contribute right away. I want Hachimura, but I'd be happy with Roby too, he's one of my top prospects. They should try to move up in the 2nd round to get one of the injured players (Okeke, Porter) or a big like Claxton with a pick in the early 30s and sign that player to a 2-way.
MLE targets should be Marcus Morris, Thad Young, Ariza, etc.
I think a trade with the Hawks should be looked at, maybe they are willing to give up Prince & Bazemore, but it really depends on the asking price.
If you can play line ups of White/Murray/DeRozan/Morris/LA or White or Murray/DeRozan/Morris/Gay/LA that could give a lot of teams on defense and offense. Morris is a player that can go off for 25 points on any given night while also playing great D and bringing some toughness. Not sure if 9.1 million is enough though. If KD goes East and no other superteam forms, that team might make it to the finals, but only if all stars align, meaning DeRozan hits 3s, Murray looks like an All-Star, White improves, Walker cracks the rotation, LA and Gay don't decline and at least 1 of the 2 rookies plays well off the bench.
Oh god not rui again. Marcus Morris is trash. Poetl is not coming off the bench for us. Hes being groomed to be our starting C for the next decade...thats why he was that towards the end of the season. Anyway no point in arguing about this until draft night... I cant wait to not draft Rui Hachimura.
says the guy who thinks Samanic is a game changer
Im banking on one of those three to be a game changer. Lets wait until draft night to see who laughs last.says the guy who thinks Samanic is a game changer
I want Eric Paschall to be a late first round pickup or second round of he is still there. Good handles, good outside jumper, NBA ready body, drives to the left and right, high basketball IQ, and great at finishing around the rim.
I was high on this guy until i realized he might just be another Quincy Pondexter since they have the same body type and they kind of play alike.
I think he is a better athlete and shooter than Pondexter.
Pondexter was a pretty good 3 and D before all of his injuries in regards to the Eric paschall comparison
It would be nice to have a natural PG on the roster, and Micic would be a good pickup, I think. I think Micic would be a good pickup, but I was sort of surprised that Teodosic's playmaking didn't really translate as well as I thought it would. Micic is a better defender, IMO, but I would have expected Teo to be better on the offensive end.
I've tried to figure out why Messina would be talking about him, and about his and Pop's conversations about him. Philly holds his draft rights. I haven't seen anything about him actually signing the extension with Efes, but even if he passed the Spurs would still have to make arrangements to get him away from the Sixers. Philadelphia has a buttload of cap space - maybe the Spurs could send Patty straight up for his draft rights.
Sixers need shooting and experience.
As Pop "let" Parker go, i could see him parting ways with Patty annd then Rudy / LMA taking the elders role. Who knows.
Phila will not use their 5 picks in the 2nd round. No way they add that many new players.
Micic is a decent player who could be had for the cheap. Even without the Mills trade.
Btw haven't seen any talk about O’Shae Brissett.
A type of wing that the Spurs could really use. 3PT shooting being his only glaring weakness.

Already 22 years old but I watched his highlights, got a good shooting stroke. He looks smaller than his listed height though (6'7"). Could be a next Draymond Green? Not bad for 29th pick I guess. I like his energy and how he moves for his size and position.
Sadly, I think the Warriors got an eye on this guy.
Damn. I already liked this Eric Paschall. Minus the measurements (can't see an accurate data) and his age, he's an NBA ready type of player. I see Paul Millsap/Draymond Green in him. He can ball and defend, he's pretty mobile and athletic for his listed position (PF).
he had pretty good results as a leaper ( max vert...) but was not good at agility drills ( shuttle run, three quarter sprint ....). I think also that he is ready and can contribute to an nba team.
Still, not bad since he's a PF. He seems pretty mobile in half-court. I won't be mad if the Spurs pick this guy at 29th pick.
I dont think hes a PF. He even calls himself a guard on his instagrm. This dude wants to play a wing role.
Well he's listed as PF on some other site. Well good to know he's a combo forward. Hope he's somehow strong like D. Green or P. Millsap.
Have you watched some of his film? I just hate most of these sites sometimes where they totally get these players positions wrong. Though Rui is listed as a PF on most sites, most people here have no issues calling him a SF. It is weird. But i agree he is a PF just because of the way he plays vs how Eric Paschall plays.
this offseason can only be a win if one of patty, derozan or Aldridge goes
Second round pick ... Tyus Battle:
