Some really good talent here

Man o man if we could get murray

Murray is not NBA ready, if he's only 170 lbs at 6'5

What position did he play in college? Unless he's a PG, he seems extremely undersized at 170.....Which means he's actually 160 plus.....thats very light at 6'5.

Chris Paul is 20 lbs heavier and he's barely 6'0

Shaun Livingston is 182 at 6-7

There's many players in the league that everyone said would need to gain weight to play in the NBA and never really have but are good/great players.

The Spurs are about to draft Dejonte Murray.... that says it all

Dammit - that's another steal. Why are other NBA teams so friggin' dumb???

plus the spurs are a world class smart organization. They always make great move despite limited resources and late round picks

Spurs got a steal

Sabonis, Oladipo, Illasova to OKC

Why? Is OKC blowing the team up?


I see it as a strange trade of Orlando, though.

I'm not a gigantic fan of Ibaka.

He is a FA after next year...OKC must feel they won't be able to keep him if they have to sign Westbrook and Durant.

I really wonder what KD's reaction to that move is... I like Oladipo... but... hmmm...

My thought too. Makes no sense. Possible upgrade over waiters at 2 but ibaka will be missed.

Getting a good vibe for knicks

i still dont see him coming here

Agreed. I don't think Durant comes here no matter what. When it's all said and done I think he stays in OKC. At least on a 1 and 1 to see what Russ does

At least he's already agreed to talk with us July 1st is enough for me to say he's thinking about playing with us, he might not sign but i believe we have a better chance than most on here. He's good friends with Rose and Melo and we do have that unicorn kid.

He has not agreed to talk with us July 1. That was Hahn speculation.

And here's where the deal really shows it's potential. Rose's presence is an attention-grabber for free agents this summer. So perhaps it gets you a dinner with Kevin Durant in Los Angeles on July 1, but it likely isn't enough to get him to sign on the dotted line.
exactly. I love the optimism but durant signing here would be extremely suprising. Not being negative just honest

But that's just you assuming. None of us really have any idea at all what KD is thinking or who he's gonna talk to, nobody in the media know either so i'm hoping for the best and we'll see if he at least talks with us.

He's a very promising guard. Have no idea how he went so late.

edit: just checked - Briggs had him at #10 in his mock if that's any indication.

Hes a baller. He's with the best organization in basketball. He had a chance to be a star for them. Unbelievable. The Spurs are freakin lucky

id love to be wrong but it just seems very unlikely. He is definetly impressed by KP thats a plus but not sure if its enough

He's my top target. I think if we get a pick in the 40s we could grab him. It'd be worth it, IMHO.

Honestly, I wouldn't say no to getting both Whitehead and Gbinije - we needs some young 2/3s...

Two guys that should have been drafted by now in this weak draft. I'd take both

I've been with Phil since he's been here so i trust whatever he does.

Cartman718 @ 6/23/2016 11:05 PM
what the hell?? that's pretty good for boston to get a first rounder for 2 2ndrounders
Cartman718 @ 6/23/2016 11:06 PM
this is a good move for memphis...he fits in with their zach randolph replacement
PhilinLA @ 6/23/2016 11:08 PM
I think the plan is to have Whitehead learn how to push it correctly behind Rose for a year, while they both attend Horny's Shot School.
