drummond just so we can get some memes between me and Sugus
This is such a Spursy headline. Player asks for trade, both decide to part ways, and start to look for teams to trade him to.

Definitely up to par for our bum FO tbh it’s clear they won’t take the best deal. They’ll settle for an awful one as long as it’s to a team where LMA will be happy
Or he gets bought out
I could see Boston trade exception. Spurs don’t want any new salary. And he goes to a contender.
Jakob ending both Gasol and Aldridge’s careers lol.
Looks like the Spurs want to actually get something in return for Aldridge rather than just buying him out. Maybe an average player (preferably a young one) and a second round pick or just 2 second round picks. I'll believe it when I see it. In the meantime I'm keeping my fingers crossed its something of real value as opposed to just letting him go for a small discount on his salary.
Yes I’m thinking they have a done deal somewhere already I’m guessing for nurkic and Derrick Jones jr money adds up
Meh, good riddance
Spurs will need to sign free agent big.
Any trade almost certainly requires the Spurs taking back less than Aldridge’s salary (assume he will waive the trade kicker too to facilitate) otherwise they’ll bump into the tax.
If they go the buyout route, any money saved will directly go towards free room they have below the tax threshold. Because they have most of their MLE left, that means being more compe ive on filling out the back of the roster.
Could the Bucks be interested?
Is there a smidgen of value we can get from them?
They prolly got wind LMA was gonna go public with his dissatisfaction and release demands, and decided to go public first. Would further ruin their look if another big name pulled the same bull as Nephew in the span of three years, especially since LMA had requested to be traded before.
Honestly can’t come up with worse 4 big rotation than Poeltl/Eubanks and Lyles/Samanic all time.
Any rotations come to mind?
Maybe Celtics trade exception and a conditional second round pick.
All this which is why I’m not on the “Thank you Aldridge” bandwagon. He’s been a low key cancer for years and only got lucky that Nephew turned out to be a bigger than him.
really liked rooting for him even at his tosb status.
happy with the memories, but also happy we are moving on
Rob Diaz and El need to get in here and celebrate
Seriously, it has that same feeling to it almost. My only question is which team would be dumb enough to give up any player or pick of value? I’d say he’s only worth about a case of Mexican coke but the Spurs would win in that deal too.
Whatever trash the Lakers started a few years ago before Lebron and Davis came to down immediately came to mind.
I don't care if it was always a marriage of convenience and wasn't for altruistic reasons, I'll always appreciate him being the one in prime star player signing here and would like to see him win a championship. Too bad he fell just shy of cracking 20k points threshold.
Aldridge for Olynyk and Leonard (out for season; kept away from team, fully non guaranteed and waived in off season)?
We suddenly urgently need a backup C.
Bring on Renfro.
Yeah a bad contract
What's Luol Deng up to these days?
I'm sure the Spurs want to please him and send him to a team that he would start for or come off the bench for a championship-level team. Probably wants to go back to the Blazers and they could use him.
