Free Agency Thread -David West to Spurs for free

LMA to Spurs is so **** awesome. We're gonna basically see Duncan being the Robinson to LMA's young Timmy (granted LMA is much older, but still).

Pelicans will be the 4th best team in the West imo. Gentry on offense, Erman on defense...two headed monster coaching staff. Davis taking another step forward, potentially cementing himself as the best in the league. If guys can stay healthy and buy into the coaching, they'll be really really good.

David Robinson = Tommy Lee Jones' old guy partner at beginning of Men In Black 1. Tim Duncan = Tommy Lee Jones. LaMarcus Aldridge = Will Smith. Nailed it.

Not from me, one less viable option for the Clips to replace Jordan.

**** the Clips.

That seems like a really cheap deal, no matter how you cut it.

Good deal for the Raptors, good defensive pickups for them this offseason.

Think Clips desperate enough to trade for Plumlee?

Anyone want Crawford as bench depth for a year instead of Plums?

Chuck Diesel · Post #3029 » by **Chuck Diesel** » Sat Jul 4, 2015 6:18 pm

I've been thinking of three way deals where we could flip Crawford somewhere for an impactful 4/3.

Instant offense. Would love to take Crawford on for a season. He can be a bit of a blackhole at times, but he can also fill it up in a hurry.

Nene on the block. Get it done, Bone.

No thanks. Oft-injured. Aged. We have other priorities, imho.

I would consider moving Bayless, Ennis, Plumlee, JOB, Mayo, Zaza, and MCW. I wouldn't consider moving these players for anything but upside/youth. At least that's how I honestly view our roster. Nene? No thanks.

No but they might inquire about Zaza if they haven't already.

Is that Bismack deal accurate? That's insanely cheap.

And I thought for sure Tobias was a gonner once ORL hired Skiles. Especially if someone else was offering him the same, if not more, money.

Sounds like his choices were Karl or Skiles. Neither great options for a young player.

Doc trying to give himself a heart attack if they McGee. I'd almost bet if they signed him, he'll be waived before the end of the year.

Very true.

He isn't a rookie tho, so I think Karl would've been the lesser of two evils...considering how Skiles treated him while they were here.

ORL probably does have a better future tho, especially being in the east.

I know the knick/lakers struck out but no one is having a worse off season than Portland. To lose 4 out of 5 starters and have little to show for it is pretty bad.

Also GSW are going to have a very easy schedule for the west by playing in the Pacific.

LMA is going to look so good on the Spurs
