According to Marc Spears while he was on the Jump, he’s hearing the Spurs are willing to trade Aldridge and a “little bit” DeRozan. I like Marc Spears and I tend to listen more when he mentions stuff like this.
Welp, at least they're trying.
Big news on DeRozan front, thanks for posting. It's around :53 on the clip. Kinda adds up though considering San Antonio hasn't extended a player who many online think has had an all-star season. Maybe it's caponomics at play where it benefits the club to resign in July... Or maybe DeRozan wants to go home next season and has clued the team of it.
IMO, they waited too long.
For Aldridge, definitely.
I see PATFO is starting their “very active” fake leaks a little earlier than usual this year. They won’t do a damn thing at the deadline but go out to eat and drink wine. Hope folks don’t eat the same sandwich they always get fed
Surprised they went with Marc Spears this year instead of the usual Zach Lowe 1 minute mention on his podcast.
if they are both traded i will watch my first spurs game in 2 years..........
I didn’t appreciate there was still a MONTH till the deadline. Lots can happen in that time
Shop all you want... Aldridge has no value and will only return a worse contract. Way too late. Worth gauging DDR’s value but I suspect despite solid play it’s still low. If the Spurs have no intention in bringing him back (either because they are not interested or he is looking for 30+ a year) it makes sense to accept some combo of a 1st, young player with upside and expiring contracts otherwise I think we keep our
playoff hopes alive and revisit in the summer. Unfortunately we will be unlikely to garner any value via sign and trade and pursue another free agen in the 20-30mm range with DDR’s cap hold of 40mm.
Too late on Aldridge. His value is now. Will be pennies on the dollar, if anything, for what they could’ve gotten for him last season.
DeMar’s more realistic as he has much more value and he’s likely bolting this Summer for LA or Toronto or whatever team is willing to pay him near-Max money anyways.

Meh they're not going to get anything for Aldridge, this is the year he finally fell off a cliff. Really should have dumped him for whatever positive they could have gotten this summer. Maybe DeRozan can get them some assets back with the season he's having though and since he's 31 so has a few years left.
Watching that gave me the vibe that the spurs have them available for a trade for the right offer but aren't desperate. I Doubt a trade happens.
Yeah. Pretty much.
I would be ecstatic if they could get a late 1st and an expiring for LA but that’s asking a lot. Maybe some playoff team would be willing to take a rental on him? I’m fine keeping derozan. Hes played well this year and feeds off the youngins well. If he walks, he walks. At least we got big body and poodle outa the load management trade.
This is JUST like the Thunder game. People are gonna get their hopes up, and then be disappointed by the end.
ugh forgot how much i don’t like ramona
LMA has no value, just his expiring contract he is better to come off the bench.
The problem is the 25M contract to get back for his contract.
Al Horford is the guy that fit that contract but his contract is too large for an old guy, not gonna happen.
They can try to trade for Plumlee but his contract is only 8M
I don't see many options in the market
Why don’t you find another team?
I've started to warm up to the idea of keeping demar. If he gets traded I hope he can contend there.
If we are really shopping LMA and DDR then we've made the decision that we'd rather not chase RFA's in the offseason because there aren't real scenarios where we can trade them and not take back longer contracts to go with the assets we'd recieve. I'm ok with that myself because I'm not very high on paying John Collins max money.
