Yes to Mamu and Barlowe until we get someone better. If we somehow land a star in trade (dubious, doubtful) then their cheap contracts are great. Probably adios to Bassey due to injuries and bad luck unless they get rid of Blake Wesley. But I digress...

Charlotte isn’t going for the playoffs with a draft buffet like 2025 laid out in front of them.

Risacher + Castle would be an incredible outcome, I just have a hard time seeing how it happens.

It wouldn’t be one of ours. Maybe something like 4+ CHI + CHA (which is likely 2 seconds)

Oof, I know it’s a packaged deal they also lands Garland, but the prospect of using a future FRP + 4 to grab ZR makes me uneasy. Think I’d at least want WAS to send over 20 as well.

Don’t think we have that luxury with 4 FRPs + X number of SRPs + relevant veterans onboarding the next two years. Anyone with an expiring or non-guaranteed deal is on the chopping block. Mamu is fun, but that can’t priority over player development.

I agree, plus I think there is the “saving face” factor which complicates any ATL deal. They’re unlikely to come off getting their picks back in a dealing specific to the Spurs. This can’t be overlooked. There are also other factors specific to the CLE situation that make them a more motivated...

I see shades of Devin Booker when I see Knecht play. He has a very similar body and size, similar if not better athletic gifts, and makes a lot of the same shots. Knecht is a solid prospect who will occasionally blow up for huge games because he is someone who can get white hot while making NBA...

Fell in the Cowboys lap in the 2nd Round of the '94 Draft Larry was the 5th Guard selected.

We are claiming him. Sorry.

No, the problem was Chamberlain did. They almost got Magic's pants down early on as well, but he finally saw the light, took their pants down a measure, and we got straightened out.

Spurs would be high on a Risacher and Castle outcome

Agreed.... I seriously doubt we're the top destination the team prefers, although we may very well be the top team his agent prefers..

I think it would be more like: Spurs trade Keldon + 8 + CHI + 2nds (maybe some other salaries) for Garland then use pick 4 + a future first to move to 1 or 2

What is your thoughts on if hes right though: Would you love Spurs trading 4+8 for Sarr? For Risacher?

Seems odd that Garland will make more than Donovan Mitchell next season, but I'm sure Mitchell will eventually get his $$$ and then some as well.

Sure, but that doesn’t change the calculus on Spurs end of what they pay. Whether CLE values Keldon or not is not the point. It’s that from Spurs end the cost is Keldon + 4 more or less.

From the reports it would be Garland requesting a trade if Mitchell is signed. Not that Mitchell is asking him to be moved. Semantics to a degree I guess?

It does pose an interesting question as to whether there is a deal to get the Spurs to 2, that is 4 + something that isn’t 8. WAS said to want another lotto pick this draft, so 4 + 8 appeals to them, but then the Spurs would lack the 24FRP to move for Garland (which is my preference). Suppose...

The Pistons are rumored to have Harris in the bag and Bridges is another candidate. No, they're not amazing, but they're starting forwards all the same. It's not that the 5th pick in this draft is "extremely valuable", it's that Johnson isn't. Garland apparently has a bigger market than...

Been awaitin' on ya, son. Kyodo News/Getty Images Rape and sexual violence are explicitly prohibited by the Geneva Conventions – the set of international laws that regulate the conduct of armed conflict – and can constitute a war crime. Mock execution is considered a form of torture...

Garland isn’t forcing his way out, Mitchell is forcing him out.

I think that’s a real possibility if Spurs feel they need to move up to get their guy. For example, if Risacher falls to 4 and Spurs get him there, and they really want Castle or Dillingham or Reed and think they need to move up to get one, I can see that trade happening

Was a strong man Exceptionally strong

Givony's premis is wrong. The Spurs aren't going to the Cavs to inquire. Clutch is going to the Spurs and then to the Cavs saying they want out. That changes the dynamic.

8 + Charlotte pick back to Charlotte for 6. Charlotte pick won't have much value to anyone other than Charlotte and it's not likely to convey into a first rounder anyways. Gives Charlotte incentive to go for the playoffs, a positive for them.

You don’t trust Red and Russell?
