    Re: 2017 Offseason Thread

    Reports about Aldridge is that he's unhappy about being the 2nd option. Same thing in Portland. Don't know how true it is though but coming from the Spurs camp you won't really get much. Portland wants him back though.

          When you continually turn up small in the playoffs no one wants to hear about you being unhappy about being the first option.

          He had the chance to prove he could be the first option when Leonard went down and everyone was trying to find where he was for all of his impact on the court.

              Where does he think he can go to be the first option? I mean, I guess there are a handful of places, but he's not going to be the first option on any playoff team.

                I thought that was going to be a great signing for the Spurs like every damn thing else they do. Glad that Pop still can't quite turn everything into gold. Gives the rest of us a little bit more hope this way.Aldridge getting real Duhwight-esque in this whole crying about touches/not being the first option stuff while proving to be damn near a ghost on the court.

                  If even the hint of him being unhappy for the same reason he left Portland managed to escape from San Antonio (especially after these past playoffs) you know Popovich heard it.

                  Wouldn't surprise me if Aldridge gets traded sometime during this offseason/draft or next season. From what I know of Popovich he has very little patience for that type of whining.

                    The sad part is at least Dwight can still give you rebounds and one on one defense (because then he still has a chance to get a rebound lol). He's not much of a help defender anymore though.

                      The Cavs and Spurs have been in trade talks involving Danny Green, sources say. Spurs' asking price has been high, though
                      ."
                      I think that would be a good fit for Cavs to have a legit two way player.

                      I would like to see 76ers try to get in the trade market for a player like him. With their proposed lineup they need a 3&D SG that could be able to guard the 1-3 spot. They could give up Okafor and a high second or two for a player like that. There aren't that many 3&D wings in FA and don't want to see them sign a bad contract for a so-so player. So trade market is the best bet

                            Danny better take the same advice Cavs players gave Jimmy and tell him to stay in SA or force a trade somewhere else.

                              How is the Spurs asking price too high when he only makes 10 mil?

                                If it doesn't include a package of Hernangomez and Harris or Murray with a future pick then no point in talking.
