This is a joke right? If Franz for Fox straight up was available the Spurs would have kittens and then do a celebratory backflip.

Did you read my post about promises earlier on this page?

I read it but I don't believe you. :dontknow:

I honestly think if Wagner was on a different team, his three point shooting would be at least 10% better.

Didn’t read the thread.

But NOP makes sense to me if they aren’t rebuilding.

Houston still makes a ton of sense, especially for off court-Fox reasons..

No idea if it’s been done but..

KD, 2029 first (not good first but first) to SAS
Fox to Phoenix

Phoenix gets Booker a long term partner, assuming he extends as part of it..

SAS trusts the young guards while adding more future value and getting better. Maybe helps convince CP to stick around a year, or use MLE on a vet point guard if he doesn’t..

Maybe push for the 2028 swap or 29th if you want on top of the 2029 first?

KD = “2ish” firsts?
Fox = “3ish” firsts?

The way the CBA is, once he signs a new deal for a higher salary, he'll be less appealing as a trade target, IMO.

I don't know what to tell you then. How do you think draft promises work for eg. Like, what are examples of teams breaking a promise like this?

There are examples of draft promises broken every year. Watch the green room and see the face on the last guys picked.

That's not a draft promise, that's an agent incorrectly guessing the range a guy will be picked. Actual draft promises are almost never broken. Certainly not by the Spurs.

The non-Spurs fans knows exactly what the Spurs will and will not do and heavily favors them in every trade thread. That's a really odd coincidence.

You are being naive for the sake of discussion. Agents aren’t putting players in the green Room. They are invited based on what the teams tell the selector.

Teams have no incentive to be honest when filling out those forms, and probably just get some junior exec to fill it out (which he bases on what he's heard I guess?) I think it's naive to believe the teams genuinely tell the league what their board is. Even putting them in random order is still giving away useful Intel.
