I have been crafting a deal for about 2 weeks (still a work in progress) not sure you guys have a trade threat

Chicago gets: 2017 Lakers Top 3 protected pick Via Philly, Danny Green, Jusuf Nurkic, Robert Covington

Denver gets: 2017 Chicago first round pick, Nikola Mirotic, Patty Mills, Gerald Henderson, rights to Nikola Milutinov

Philly gets: Lamarcus Aldridge, Wilson Chandler

San Antonio gets: Dwayne Wade, Darrell Arthur, Sergio Rodriguez, Richaun Holmes and a two of second round from Philly (not there own)

Chicago gets a massive package for D-Wade and expiring contract, however, even aging Stars demand a hefty package, best you could hopeful. this a nice package for Wade, particularity with possibly of that Lakers pick

Denver gets and demands of first round for Nurkic, they get a nice package of good role players, I hoping that Mirotic improves with a change scenery, I love patty mills as a point guard, Milutinov is going to be prized with that first rounder as well. Henderson is accomplished role player.

Philly gets there two compliment to Embiid and Simmons, as they matriculate as possible stars, Sixers, takes tremendous salary, but the package is reason, I see there front court including, Embiid, Noel, Saric, Ilyasova, chandler, and Aldridge being the veteran leader. I also see Chandler playing some two.

San Antonio gets a Star in Wade, who is still a tremendous scorer, this a win now move, destroy the warriors move, with Ginobili and Parker going for possibility there last ring, they finished the game. with Parker, Ginobili, Wade, Leonard, And Gasol, that lineup match up well with GS small ball lineup with Curry/thompson/Iguodala/Durant/Green
I want to talk about Arthur he is becoming a very good role player now with that three point range, he is a great team defender
Richaun Holmes has three point range he more of a end bench, assets for the future type of player, I think he could earn 10 minutes with this team, Rodriguez for mills is a wash, I like Rodriguez' pick roll game better than Mills, he decent role player, and heady player, is d needs help

Depth chart with suggested playoff minutes

PG Parker(26) Rodriguez(15) Murray
SG Wade (32) Ginobili (18) Simmonds (17)
SF Leonard(37) Anderson (9) Bertans
PF Arthur (25) Lee (10) Holmes (10)
C Gasol (31) Dedmon(10)

either Forbes or Anthony would be waived.

What do you think?

Spurs downgrade here. Yeah LMA has been subpar but we also lose Green and Mills and basically only get Wade back. Losing a lot of defense and floor spreading ability all at once.

Maybe if it was Butler instead but again it would only be something we'd consider in the off season.

spurs need a good backup pg

if the spurs dont win it all this season? i can actually see them letting mills walk, and give murry more minutes next season or promoted to starting job for the spurs to start moving forward retooling a younger squad around kawhi for the future

Spurs would downgrade... Also, we aren't randomly trading Aldridge to Philly.

Nice trade OP, it's hard to craft such a blockbuster trade that makes all sides happy. This one is particularly difficult to envision for the both the Spurs and the Sixers.

- Aldridge doesn't match up with Philly's timeline. Also, Philly is trying to lose big men, not pick up more.

- The Spurs don't really need Wade, and losing Aldridge, Green, and Mills to add him is a net negative, imo. The starting lineup might be slightly better offensively, but takes a pretty big step back defensively, and the bench, which is our biggest strength this year, takes a big hit too. Honestly, as Udrih mentioned, we'd probably be in the market for a PG if anything, although even that's not as much of a glaring need anymore with Murray coming along so nicely. The Spurs will likely be boring trade partners for the foreseeable future as they let the old guys ride off into the sunset and continue to cultivate the youth movement of Bertans/Dedmon/Murray/Simmons/Anderson.

I really don't like it for us. There's no way that the Bulls would get more for Wade than we would for LMA.
