better than doing nothing if you're trying to be compe ive:
wouldn't trade la for drummond. would trade demar for him. drummond and la would compliment each other, andre could do the dirty work and la could save energy. who cares if he's opting out, still better than having demar on the roster.
spurs could use a defensive SF but i haven't seen many available...

Lyles earns almost double the salary that Saric is earning. WTF are you talking about? Bunch of posters talking out of their ass not knowing anything
Is there any package the Spurs could cobble together to even think about getting KAT? There is all this talk that he's tired of being in Minny (and who would blame him). Aldridge, Samanic, and next year's first rounder?
Why is Drummond so intriguing to people on here? Lol. I would rather have Blake griffin any day.
Not at his age with his mileage/injury history on his contract.
Not Drummond, either. No deal with Pistons.
KAT is not a winner. I know people look at his stats and see what he can do but he is not a winner. People would be complaining about him like they do DDR here in a year or 2. Good stats guy (like DDR) but not a winner.
Drummond would be a horrible fit with Aldridge. Even if the latter was amendable to going full B. Lopez to try to space the floor for the former's rim runs (it'd be all for naught anyway because Murray can't shoot), there's a lack of ball skills (dribble, pass, shoot) as well as defensive versatility.
And why is Towns even being debated? Even if he requests a trade (he probably gives them at least the off season first), this team doesn't have even close to the requisite centerpiece asset required to acquire a top 12 player.
after i posted that the spurs should trade for jae crowder... he put up 27/8/7, had 3 steals and 3 blocks against the clippers.
Looks like Philly is willing to move Horford for shooters. He'd be the perfect fit next to Aldridge, but 33 and on a 4 year deal makes me say pass. Mills, Belinelli and Carroll for Horford would work though....
KAT is under contract for four more seasons, Minny would expect a huge haul. The Spurs can't "out asset" another team but if he forced his way out and wanted to come to San Antonio then this would probably be the outline of a trade:
Minny Gets:
Aldridge
Derrick White
DeMarre Carroll
2020, 2022, 2024 1st rounders
Spurs Get:
Karl Anthony Towns
Gorgui Dieng
Frontcourt isn't even that big of an issue. Priority number one should be a legitimate 3&D guy. Get Forbes the out and have DeMar, Lonnie, and new 3&D guy eat up most of the minutes at the 2/3. Sprinkle a little bit of Wombat in there at the 2. Instant darkhorse contenders, tbh.
Keldon (and Metu) could be full time with the main team in this scenario
Not 2020 stuff but the Nets are gonna move on from Kyrie in 2 years. I wonder if we will be in the mix for him since we have a relationship with Marks
For this year it’s Hayward or bust for me.
I see our interest peaked if we can find mediocre jump shooters, who play no defense, and are past their prime.
Spurs should offer the GM position to him.
Saw an article the other day suggesting a trade you describe here. Trading DDR to Minnesota for Wiggins to get out of his contract. They were saying that Minnesota will probably have to trade KAT soon and they will be looking to rebuild. Getting out of Wiggins contact could be important while getting DDR helps keep fans in the seats for a bit.
I'll take Keldon over Forbes and Belinelli any day
That would be a trade that ups our ceiling this year. I agree with you that 4 years would be tough to swallow. Who is reporting this?
yeah and that would really get us back into being a real playoff threat.
The Sixers’ poor spacing is of particular concern, especially for Embiid. Sources say the Sixers will search the trade market for perimeter shooting threats with playmaking ability, a need that was apparent as Philadelphia went 6-of-27 from 3-point range Friday night. 16 hours ago – via Tim MacMahon @ ESPN
They are not mentioning Horford, but his fit with Embiid has been a concern and the Sixers don't really have depth. Their starting 5 is good, but they need serious bench players who are knock down shooters. Probably an unrealistic trade scenario, but who knows
Gotcha...thanks for the info. Maybe if they don't put horford on the block we can find a away to extract some value from Forbes or belli and pawn one of them off on the Sixers if they're desperate....
no. That’s DDR for ing Hayward? Just say no.
Spurs fans should set an age lower threshold at 35. That's about the youngest decent player we'll get.
hes way better than clarkson and has more potential than any other our player

He's really not and he really doesn't
