Derozan to Sac seems inevitable at this point. I'm guessing Huerter and a second or two possibly gets it done.

Would still prefer to start Keon/Derozan at the 2/3 and bring Barnes off the bench. You still have the flexibility to move Barnes and a 1st or two (maybe a swap) for a Kuzma or Cam Johnson to come in and start at the 4 too.

If I'm pretending to be excited about DeRozan coming here, is that ball cap?

I’d be happy if DeRozan is a secondary deal. No reason not to swap a couple 2nds and Huerter for him if it’s not in the way of the other deals (this might eat up cap for a Lauri renegotiate/extend though….). Seems close to happening

Kings would be better off sticking with Huerter or especially Barnes. If you trade for DDR you're going to miss the playoffs for sure. It'd be a nice pick-up for the Spurs though.

Why would you miss the playoffs for sure with Derozan?

Because he makes you worse. He dominates the ball, slows you down by dribbling alot for half court, can't play off ball or shoot 3s, and hurts your D. Terrible fit for your fast paced scheme.

Welcome Demar, but this better not end our summer

2032 pick swap for taking Barnes, don’t like it one bit. Someone should’ve taken an expiring Huerter for 2nds…

Yeah I'm not worried about that swap at all. Better than sending a 1st outright. Would have preferred sending Huerter out, feel like having Barnes would have balanced the roster more but we still have flexibility to make more moves.

He’s a winner and definitely doesn’t dominate the ball. Good passer and clutch closer. Every locker room raves about him. And he’s happy to be back in Cali.

DeRozan is mentally a better defender at the Sg but he is slow. He is bad in space. He is not stupid therefore you can protect with the right scheme.

Can you tell me about Chris Duarte?

I like the DDR trade for a few reasons.

If you take a look at the recent salaries signed this year it is looking like 30+ million a year is becoming quite common for extensions.

We got a pretty good player for cheaper than that.

Third year is a partial too.

Some of us may be dead in 2031 when the swap happens, and we could be picking higher than the Spurs anyways. Sure I get Wemby should be wrapping up his rookie deal extension meaning the Spurs probably will be a good team by then.

He did dominate and slow the game down.

You guys have a PG. He was at his best when we had Ball. The team actually worked.

Another thing is I heard DDR shot 39% from corner 3's last year. So he won't necessarily clog the offense.

What do we do with Huerter now?

Backup 3?

Lyles seems ultra important now that we are thin at the 4.

Mr Winner has made the playoffs twice in the last 6 years, both 1st round exits. It's not a coincidence.

Decent trade.
Now to go and get a starting level PF with Huerter and picks.

Hoping they’ll be other moves to balance out the roster

In awful situations SA was rebuilding. Chicago won his first yr and injuries to others derailed the last two. Still got them to the play-in almost on his own.
