    That's not how trades work where you clearly get over on the other team.

    Trades have to benefit both teams and if you're only looking for trades where you clearly make better in the deal then you won't be trading anyone.
    Lopsided trades happen all the time. Being that there is no sense of urgency to make a move they can let it play out. Trading your best player at 25 when you’re probably one player away from making the playoffs comes with its own set of risks. I’d assess at the trade line and next seasons draft. I don’t think now is the time to move DJ unless it’s a no brainer.

    Don’t be a ing ahole. A true sign of someone’s inability to defend their comments is to put words in someone’s mouth.

    It’s a worthwhile debate but not if you’re going to resort to being a child.
    If you only want to make a trade that clearly benefits you then you aren't likely making any trades.

    If you aren't making any trades you're coming back with the same team except the couple of rookies they add tonight because free agency is not likely going to get you anyone big.

    I’ve read your post for awhile and never thought you were this dumb before. I never said that I only wanted things to be one sided. Only that now is an appropriate time to ask high. There are too many positive factors working for this team to simply settle on making a deal based on potential when we have a very solid proven piece in DJ. I reserve the right for that opinion to remain fluid and change over time.

    We’d be well served to look for a player(s) to pair with him at his age before deciding that moving him for unproven assets is the right risk worth taking. We have a lot invested in him and if you’re going to have an impactful player that older than our timeline you want it to be the pg. A savvy defensive oriented vet is super important. If we build around him over the next 3 years it’ll be worth it.

    Or it won’t and he’s still movable this time next year.

    As a Spurs fan you should know by now that that's Pop's M.O.. Do the same thing that doesn't work over and over
