NLL Insider - Team by Team: San Antonio Spursby laddas, updated on Tuesday, November 01 2016, 04:19 am EST
The San Antonio
Spurs send a 1st-Rounder (SA) and 1st-Rounder (Utah) to the LA Clippers.
The LA
Clippers trade -6 GM points. The San Antonio Spurs receive 6 GM points. Now I don’t
think this a terrible trade for the Clippers, I actually liked it for both. The
Spurs made a lot of solid moves though and it was hard to pick the best out.
Stanley has really good potential and the Spurs wanted to add players that
could make a big impact a couple of years down the line. 2 picks are a big haul
to give up but could be worth it in the end. A solid move for the Spurs here,
but not bad for the Clippers either.
The Sacramento Kings
use their trade exception over $ 2,109,293. The San Antonio Spurs
receive 8 GM points. The Sacramento Kings trade -8 GM points. You know you’re
clutching at straws when this is the worst trade. Miles has established himself
as a solid big and is even starting in the NBA, but he’s not a great player to
ride home about. Though I would’ve though cash considerations are underselling
on Plum here.
The New
York Knicks trade -8 GM points. The Toronto Raptors receive 8 GM points. Wait, a
promising wing prospect for an over the hill backup/3rd string pg?
Great deal here for the Spurs. Harkless has shown great improvement over the
last 18 months and this is a solid deal. He is asking for quite the pay rise
this off season though.
The Orlando
Magic send Luol Deng and Joel Embiid to the San Antonio Spurs. The San Antonio
Spurs send Wesley Matthews to the Orlando Magic. The Orlando
Magic send a 2nd-Rounder (Orl) to the San Antonio Spurs. The San Antonio Spurs
send a 2nd-Rounder (SA) to the Orlando Magic. The Orlando
Magic receive 10 GM points. The San Antonio Spurs trade -10 GM points. If The
Process was still hurt, I would’ve nommed this as the worst trade, but Embiid
is healthy…. And man does he look gooooooood. Matthews was great for the Spurs
but coming off a serious Achilles injury, Leeroy felt it was time to roll the
dice on him and go for another guy dealing with a serious injury. If Embiid
stays healthy enough, this trade has the makings of a potential championship
contending change. A Embiid/Davis front line is just flat out scary.
The
Charlotte Hornets send Gerald Henderson to the San Antonio Spurs. The San
Antonio Spurs send Beno Udrih to the Charlotte Hornets. The San
Antonio Spurs send a 2nd-Rounder (Hou) and 2nd-Rounder (SA) to the Charlotte
Hornets. A solid
veteran wing for an over the hill pg again and a couple of seconds? Good deal
for Spurs here. Bismack was
restricted, but he did choose to test free agency, so bringing him back is a
good free agent signing. He was solid throughout the year with 7.8ppg 11.1rpg
and shot 60% in a starting centre role with the Spurs. The problem though he
was signed on a 1yr QO deal and got a big payday. Does Leeroy think he’s worth
17m? Enough to keep him around? We’ll see. John Jenkins He was released just 2 weeks later. Pretty self-explanatory right there?
Will Barton
was great since coming over from the Magic for Nic Batum and Anthony Davis was
great after mid-season and is the team’s most important player but it was
Reggie Jackson that kept this team ticking over all through the season. 21.9ppg
6.1pg 3.7rpg 1.5spg but struggled a bit with his shooting. Still despite the
shooting struggles, there’s a good case to argue that the Spurs may not have
made the playoffs without Jackson. Was playing
a 6th man role for the Magic before being thrust into a starting
role with the Spurs and he didn’t disappoint. In fact, he was great! 18.9ppg
5.0rpg 2.5apg on 45/36/93 shooting on his way to winning the most improved
award. Will has solidified himself as an important part of this Spurs team and
I think his emergence could see the eventual moving of Allen Crabbe. We will
see I guess. Allen
Crabbe Ok… He
wasn’t terrible and I’m not even including based on his seasons performance. 8
points and a handful of rebounds and assists in a 20-24min role is alright….
But to demand 18.5m annually on the back of that? GTFOH boy. Maybe a Will
Barton type season could see you nab a big payday but damn, what he provided
isn’t worth 50% more than Steph Curry will make this season. It’ll be
interesting to see what Leeroy does here. Yes, he’s young and talented, but
with the emergence of Barton and Stanley Johnson coming through and Moe
Harkless… Crabbe could be a major trade candidate out of San Antonio.
Anthony Davis(RFA)
– Restricted…. Franchise player…. Moving along here. Maurice
Harkless(RFA) – Moe is a solid wing, small ball four 4 and seems to be still
improving. He’s asking for a modest pay rise but based on a lot of contracts
been handed out, it isn’t too bad. I expect Moe to be back and not to be
traded, my candidate for sign and trade is about to come… Allen
Crabbe(RFA) – 18.5m over 4 years for a guy that has career NLL averages of
7.3ppg 2.5rpg 1.4apg…. Wow. Leeroy has a big decision here, is he worth? With
Barton, Harkless and Johnson on the books does Crabbe have the starting spot
locked down? For 18.5m, if you commit to that you would think he’s going to
start right? I don’t know, it’s an interesting one. For what it’s worth he is a
good shooter/scorer and not a bad defender, but for 70m+… I’m not so sure he’s
THAT good. James
Ennis(UFA) – He’s not asking for big money but he’s likely to seek greener
pastures. A good athlete and decent player overall, he will find a home
somewhere if it isn’t the Spurs. Marvin
Williams (UFA) – Hasn’t really turned out to be the player he was hyped up to
be when drafted 1st overall. He’s a solid stretch four and he’s
almost automatic anywhere near the basket. He’s 50/50 to return atm but he
wouldn’t be a bad guy to have around. I think the Spurs are pretty well set at
the four though (just some dude with unibrow) and it’s looking likely he’s let
go or sign and traded. |
