Spurs get no Kyrie, Brown, Tatum, Horford or Hayward.


Give them morris and smart for salary matching purposes and give them them the sac pick a the piece they really need in return for Leonard. Id even throw in the clippers pick and one of our own.


Smart would agree to this -- why?

Also, who else are you including? Morris plus 1/2 of Smart's salary isn't enough.

Smart would agree to it because he would get paid

Just think of a combination of everyone except Brown, Tatum, Kyrie - players which our own insider reload said was not offered. So it's likely a couple of Celtic back.ups + picks.

New here, why is reload considered an insider?

Because he is. He knows someone and has made multiple specific hits on completely random stuff (stuff that you or I couldn't predict/even think about).

He's got legit connections proven through reports of multiple Celtic transactions. Not allowed to expose his connections though. For all I know he might be Danny Ainge's burner account on realgm 8-)

How? If they don't do anything exciting with the cap room, can't they spend it again on one-year wonders?

Well, there is the bit about them getting a couple of guys on midseason buyouts who aren't with them as minimum salary players. Hmm ...

Actually -- CAN they roll over the cap room? Or do they have issues with having to use it on Embiid or somebody?

They lost a couple of rotation players vital to their spacing without comparable replacements.

Midseason buyout players rarely make an impact esp in the playoffs.

They'll have cap room next summer. But I meant they got weaker for upcoming season.


Which rotation players did they lose who they didn't get as mid-season buyouts themselves?

So San Antonio would give Smart a three year contract at above-market rates in order to accomplish ... what?

He's not. He's Aussie.

Injury stuff last year proved he was an insider over any transaction stuff imo. He knew completely random details that we'd hear about a month later.

Thanks for clarifying. I think i've read a while ago that Kawhi is 100% healthy. Forgot if it was ddb or reload who said that though.

What a **** show for SA. Hope they'll double down and dump kawhi only till the last minute of free agency.

There's no market because he's restricted. I'm worried that he'll take the QO.
