If Roberson is 100% and his presumed return in a trade is a SRP I think I'd rather just try to keep him as a FA next summer. We got a gaping hole at SF he can fill and hes always been great for our culture. Leads the pre-game huddles, gives max effort etc.

If somehow Roberson comes back at 100%, what would be his trade value? A 2nd round pick?


At least a late first round pick, he could really help some teams.


It really depends on who needs what. @ the end of the day every western conference team could use a defender like Andre.

Some of these guys could be used to make salary match in a CP3 deal and/or to reduce the draft picks to be attached.

100% Dre and Adams are two guys that I would love for this team to keep around. If you don't get a first rounder for Andre you don't move him. Unless he helps you get off CP3.

Roberson is almost 28 years old coming from a ''career ending injury''. I like him but don't see the reasons to keep him (Rachel Demita can stay in OKC though)

Adams is still young enough to be part of the new process.

I hope it's a 3 year (and not 5-6 years) full rebuild while developing SGA and maybe keeping Adams as our main pieces for the future with some of the 6 guys we will draft in the first round, then we could trade some future assets to improve our roster.

EDIT : still hope we can trade this trade deadline or next offseason for a good prospect to develop as well but they are really expensive :(


I asked a similar question regarding trading for another young player to develop and play next to Shai. We basically came up with

Kevin Knox
Anfernee Simons
DSJ
Dejounte Murray
Derrick White
Jonathan Isaac
Ntilikina
Rodions Kurucs

I can’t imagine the spurs want to move DM but I would gladly take him. I think Isaac could be attainable.

Think Thunderbolt added a couple of names as well. From the guys that we could get (well, I think at least) Jonathan Isaac looks great to me. Mentioned before that if Orlando is in playoff contention we could look to trade him and whatever Orlando wants to give up for Gallo and a pick (looks like a fair deal)

Looks like Presti use of words worked for a lot of stupid fans. They believe we aren't rebuilding :lol:

Kurucs and maybe Isaac are the only guys off that list that interest me at all. Simon's if he's part of a package for Gallo.

Clippers with number one of wins in the West and with Kawhi resting 15-20 games is weird

It really comes down to which teams key guys do you think stay healthiest, Mike Conley, AD and Lebron, Kawhi and George? I tend to think Utah can handle Conley missing games. Clippers not far behind.

yeah it's just that there are too many good teams in the West for a team to win 55 games with his best player missing 15-20 games

Looks a little weird to see Paul even in Thunder practice gear. This season's going to be such a strange trip you guys.

I like Simons but I don’t think Presti would covet him. He’s not a good defender and too short.
