Great trade. Now trade Poeltl and walker can go elsewhere and let the young guys have fun.
Yup. You were ahead of the curve on it, and I joined you in seeing how much sense it made after this year. But I vehemently disagreed with you on this last year when you first suggested it. I saw the writing on the wall though as our 25th pick came across the screen.
The worst three teams get a 52.1% chance of a top 4 pick. The top three worst are highly likely to stay within the top 5...
Odds are listed on the tankathon.com main page.
Why didn't they get a 2023 first from atlanta? I wanted the Spurs to get three players in next years draft and the chance if Atlanta misses the playoofs of two lottery picks. But not against trading Murray.
Also, are we sure SA is going to tank lol? I wonder if they are fine being a treadmill team in late lottery and will sign FA to “keep them afloat” vs tanking hmm…Think we all assume they will tank but I am not 100% confident in that.
says the guy who thinks the Spurs got 3 unprotected picks. Tell me how genius? Charlotte pick is top 16 protected
FWIW, agree on trading Murray but they could've done much better imo. Hopefully they trade everyone over the age of 23 here in the next few days.
And you won't be singing that tune this time next year if we manage to get Wembanyama and have not only a young roster of studs (that actually got PT ON THE COURT) but draft picks oozing out of our eyeballs for the next half decade, with capspace!
Watch them Sign Colin Sexton lol
The odds are 100% to get a top 5 pick with the worst record in the league....and yes the odds are highly likely to be better than #5..
the Spurs didn't get 3 unprotected firsts
2 unprotected. 1 pick swap. 1 hornets top 16 protected.
if they end up as the 10th seed again I'll lose my mind
I think he's talking about the 2026 pick swap being unprotected as the 3rd unprotected pick..
why are you telling me things that I already know? Like does that boost your confidence or something?
of course your not
They won't even be a bottom 5 team next year.
Trade Poetl ASAP as well.
They've already sent a message to all their young guys that they're on a minor league team. Wait your turn, get better and you'll get a call up to the big leagues soon enough
since when do 2 picks and 1 swap equal to 3 picks? Can you pick 3 players in 3 drafts with those 2 picks?
hes a lil slow
Could have gotten two firsts and two seconds for Poetl and Keldon in trade instead and still tanked while having one legitimately talented player still on the roster.
They are going to get a great player in next year's draft.
They should land a top 5 pick or better next year.
Just throwing at the wall here, but....what if Dejounte wanted out?
What if he requested a trade, but did it professionally instead of being like Nephew and blasting it out all over Twitter and through the media?
He's been a good soldier all along...but maybe SA wasn't his dream destination.
It just doesn’t make sense. You pick a player with potential and when he finally reaches that potential you ship him off for more projects YEARS from now. How does that not continue a cycle? You lose an all star player NOW, for potential years from now. I could see if it was for three first round picks next year but several years from now with none being in the lottery? Just plain stupid.
Pretty terrible trade for the Spurs. Atlanta won this trade and the picks the Spurs got back aren't even that high. Pop likely don't give a crap anymore Spurs in full tank mode now.
