Bogdan Bogdanovic and Joe Harris will be available and both are preferable to DeRozan imo. Neither will demand anywhere near a max contract, both shoot the three, both are younger than DeRozan.
I dont think we can get anything for him and since he wants to get paid i think he's gonna try his best this season. I say we keep him and let him walk no matter how he plays unless of course we go to the finals somehow, lol.

I've had a hard time adjusting to the new salaries that are getting thrown around. Guys have gotten more than I thought they were worth, and it's a trend not a fluke. After seeing who all got extended and locked down, and after spending some time sizing up the weak FA class for next year, DeRozan is going to be one of the best available. Probably second to Anthony Davis, if he's really legitimately "available". If DDR doesn't screw up his value with a terrible season, it's almost hard for me to imagine now that someone won't throw max money at him.
I presume the Spurs could offer him more than anyone else? I don't think he especially loves it in SA, so that's really the only reason I could think that he would want SA to be the ones to give him that contract. I also don't know that any of us really know what goes on inside these guys' heads. But he does seem like he gets his feelings hurt about a lot of things. I hope he's not going to pout through the season.
One thing I do know: if he plays all season like he did tonight, he's not getting maxed by anybody. Maybe his best bet is to fake an injury and go to NY to rehab.
Oh man, if you get tired of repe ion, you're definitely in the wrong place.
Yeah, if Spurs could get anything of value for him that would be a win. They could have just given all his minutes to Lonnie Walker tonight and I don't see how the team could have been worse for it.
He airballs floaters. Give him the max
sucked for three quarters but pulled the sinking spurs ship out of the mud in the 4th. secured the w. sorry spurstalk
^ A bad 3 quarters followed by a pretty damn good 4th and got us the lead.
They need to get further a part. I don't understand how a so called top player in the league can continue to be just invisible have so little impact on a game. If they give him a max they might as well sign Melo while they are at it and let him play with Mills and Beli. Burn that to the ground...
Honestly if DEROZZ, Mills, and Marco got hurt that would be the best thing for us as it would force Pop to play Walker, Keldon, Murray and White more.
It was clear he was sulking last night. 1 point through basically 3 quarters and playing passive af. Not a good look, to the point where he had to be taken out of the game during a long stretch where we were being obliterated
Starting to think that he opts in to next season, there is really only one team that would likely pursue him (Charlotte) because of Jordowner.
Not all bad; gives the Spurs an extra year of DDR, LMA and Gay then, possibly, let the three of them walk after next season.
I’ll say it again:
DDR + Mills + Beli for equal value 6’ 7” 3D deadeye and a musclebound (with an edge) PF who is serviceable and there you go.
Young guys got to step up and LMA.
It’s a dream I know...
Eactly my point couldn't agree more ....that's why I hate when people complain about wiggins
id so prefer a starting five of:
Murray
white/Forbes
wiggins
poertl (spelling)
LA
way more athleticly gifted team shooting is improving but I think ball would move all around better they can break down a defense and second chance points rebounds is where we would clean up they all better than average rebounders at their respective positions ....the pressure is on nobody and we don't have to pay a max for an old DD who just is a very good player but not for this team the way it's currently being built. Wiggins contract would be actually cap friendly for his age athletetism and potential under pop oh and way better defensively by far.
Those 3 players make $45 million, unless we're trading them for Kawhi, their isn't a player that fits that description in that salary range.
It's not like people are wrong about Wiggins, he's not a good player who's making the max. He's far, far worse than DeRozan. If he ever got to DDR's level then he wouldn't be such a disappointment.
"It’s a dream I know..."
DDR will likely walk after this season, if things continue as they are. Gay and LMA are signed until the summer of 2021. I would actually like LMA to sign again in 2021, but I think he may go back to PDX like he said he would. He'd be 36, but would probably have 2-3 years left in the tank. Big men just age better. He also seems to have toughened up a bit since his first year or two here.
When the Lakers are not performing like they want spurs should trade them their "third star" to fill out our roster. Too bad most of their players outside the top are garbage
They already traded everyone worth a damn to get AD. The earliest first-rounder they can trade is something like 2027.
I wouldn't mind trading him for Kuzma and Green tbh
I'd take that trade all day if they'd put it on the table.
Anything is possible with the Lakers re ed FO. I mean they literally gave Zubac to the Clippers for free.
I don’t see Derozan going to Lakers. Not only do lakes and Sa not play nice but Derozan legit seems like he hates that atmosphere. He’s on video saying no to playing with lakers
Damn. Gordon Hayward is looking good again. I wish we could’ve traded for him in the offseason by unloading Demar and a pick. I’m sure Boston would’ve bit. They were desperate and had no way of knowing if he would come back the same player.
