And the Spurs obliging out of a guilty conscience for bending us over in the original Murray trade lol

lol exactly.. Landry calling in to pop to get a favor back.. we need to squeeze 5 FRP's and Siakam, Herb, Jones, and Trey Murphy out of this deal

[BangHolman]

Would a DJ trade include Cap or would those be separate deals if they happened?

Updates I'm allowed to share:

Teams are having to bid against each other for our players which is exactly what the FO wanted. They wanted a real bidding war and we are getting some of that.

No one is being traded for pennies on the dollar. If you think the video I shared is my private belief on that please wipe that away. 

The most active teams pushing for him are the Lakers and Knicks. Spurs interest is legit. I would personally happily trade him back for our picks and undoing the pick swap but that's just me.

Lakers don't have much to offer. I know we have discussed a three team deal with the Lakers with Murray and Capela plus some kind of draft compensation from third team for AD coming to Atlanta. 

Not that he needs my support but I can corroborate the first statement. A Knicks framework for DJM is in place from both sides but has been put on hold as other teams have entered the mix. Not sure how long they wait now and I still think he’s moved by deadline but there was a legit chance he was gone today and I’m not sure that happens anymore

What could a Knicks trade look like again?

Grimes + fournier (used as filler to salary match) + firsts

Lakers and Knicks are the most motivated to get a deal, Lakers especially. Other teams are putting in bids like the 76ers, Spurs and Pelicans.

Probably like something that would tick off the fan base.  Grimes plus Fournier plus picks has been thrown around but I think that would be really ugly.

No one on their roster gets me excited -- maybe Mitchell Robinson as rebounding is a huge issue on this team, but he's a high end role player, not on the same level as DJ

[BangHolman]

Vassell, 25 or 27 back, and eliminating the pick swap sounds great to me. Let's undo some of the damage cause by the over pay.

Picks are going to be nothing..we will get burnt like always

DM is our biggest asset that we will move.  You have to make this trade count.  We are already a lottery team right now and don't own our pick next year.  If you are getting a strong return in terms of actual NBA talent, you can envision a path to being back in the playoffs next year.  If not and you are counting on free agency, woo boy.  That is a dream scenario for San Antonio.

Hawks could use either one of those guys..

We're too damn soft and finesse

 

...kinda like I just did.

Getting an expiring contract to help with ducking the tax next year shouldn't be a primary factor in any DJM deal.  Someone else, but not DJM.  And yet, if the deal is indeed with the Knicks, then...

I also support @Sothron. . I'm putting together some NIL money to get him to hit the transfer portal to the outsiders....

Eff dem picks.  We don't know what TF to do with em anyways.  I had a joke about that time I was dating an older woman but figured those stories would give the mods heartburn.

If San Antonio had the cap space to take on Murray, we might be able to trade a 2nd to Utah and get JC back, too.  

[JeffS17]

I question how serious teams are about trading for DJ until I start hearing some names come out.  Right now, teams seem to (publicly at least) just have their toes in the water.
