Talented player but a mental midget tbh

Not a fan of KAT at all but this would be a great trade for the spurs from a talent perspective depending on what type two pics are (if they are the Charlotte and Chicago picks I’d be all in). The $ is hard to take though as KAT is up for $36M this year. After that he’s up for somewhere in the neighbourhood of $50m a year of which id be opposed to. So all this would be for a one year rental or the right to overpay him.

That's not a rumor. The article says someone on Bleacher Report came up with what they thought would be a shocking move.
Bleacher Report making up isn't a rumor
Spurs need a banger inside and not a big body who rather stays out to take the 3’s
graham and campayne are roster filler anyway imo, so i dont really care about their inclusion. keldon + 2 of our weaker firsts for KAT is obviously a slam dunk. on paper he'd be a very good complement to wemby as well.
i know there are legit questions about him taking things to the next level, but on its face we'd be very dumb not to take that trade
with that said, its bleacher report throwing on a wall
I feel like Wemby and KAT would be duplicative players.
if only there was precent for two big... towering figures sharing the court for the spurs
KAT is passive and the epitome of weak sauce. There is also no way that in the current trade environment that Minny accepts only 2 FRPs for KAT.
not gonna happen
Old timers will remember the only fantasy trades that got published back then were from Sam Amick. Now any with a phone....
Spurs would not want to risk wemby getting “infected” with that weak mentality kat-virus…
not a rumor-just a bad trade scenario
I don't see Pop wanting to add KAT to this team-oriented, positive squad.
Now is not the time to mess up chemistry. I'm not sold on the idea that KAT is the right type of player and personality for the Spurs.
Getting to really know Wemby will inform the team what they need. I cannot wait to see how it all unfolds.
What's the next BR rumor, Harden to Spurs?
I'd rather try to pry either OG Anunoby or Pascal Siakam from Toronto then trade for KAT.
And I'm a huge fan of Towns because of his family's Dominican ties, but wouldn't want him on the Spurs.
For that price it would be a no-brainer. The fit would be a bit awkward on defense but KAT is an elite offensive big from everywhere on the court and imo he would be as important a contributor to a le team as Anthony Davis was in 2020. His contract also only has one overlapping year with Wemby's rookie extension.
I can't understand the take that the Spurs shouldn't be willing to take him no matter how low the cost, especially the "career loser" argument. Players that haven't won anything are always players who haven't won anything until they win something. This was true of Anthony Davis, among many many others.
Can Bleacher Reports get us KD?
Why would anybody want KAT? The dude is like the go to guy when you think of big men with no heart and grit. He’s so bad at defense that the Wolves gave away 5 FRPs just for the corpse of Gobert to play defense
can always expect the "pointy elbows" takes from spurstalk
He's the worst kind of tweener in today's NBA - Not tough enough as a C, too slow for the perimeter as a PF.
Anthony Davis is an elite defender when not in street clothes. Don't really see comparing KAT to him at all.
do not want KAT
Minny looked better with him off the floor
Yeah, not sure why so many (some are obviously doing it for clickbait) have trouble differentiating/distinguishing between the two.
The Spurs won't be pursuing other superstar/star bigs and they won't have interest in the Spurs in the Wembanyama era (not that they would have anyway).
Do not want this mentality in the team
Please learn to differentiate the meaning of trade idea and trade rumors.
