The problem is partially that sports can also be a PR game. Griffin has had some real bad PR and a national media that is absolutely gleeful to destroy us. He needed to throw a little caution to the wind and get some moves done. And couldn’t.
Hopefully there’s some tricks up his sleeve but now that we are done day 2. It’s starting to look a little dark.

I get where you are coming from . I’m not defending Griff.
I made the point previously that this isn’t a Griff specific issue , however. There have been numerous GMs since this franchise came to NOLA and we have signed 2 notable free agents . The market is viewed poorly. The only thing that helps to overcome that is winning which we have not done enough of .
He swung for the fences on Lowry and struck out. Hit a single on the Graham deal but he’ s still on first . Has to get a few more hits to make the planning and being an above the cap team worthwhile .

So is josh hart going to be forced to take his QO?
Posted on 8/3/21 at 9:22 pm to JohnnyKilroy
That would be hilarious to be honest. I wouldn’t mind that at all. Josh has been kind of dickish as of late. Probably scaring some teams off along with him being a non shooting wing.

I would love to have the one man fast break back.

I think he wants out and they are looking for a spot for him.
Wonder if they are going to trade him for larry nance.

That would be funny because I think he is boys with Larry Nance and probably would want to play with him.

Maybe that is why they are sending him there.
I'd rather keep hart if it's just going to be a sign and trade for bullshite.

Free agent guard Bryn Forbes has agreed to a deal with the Spurs, sources tell @TheAthletic @Stadium. Forbes returns to San Antonio.

Sign Jabari Parker for the minimum, I know he can't shoot threes but he would be a good backup to Zion for a few minutes a game.

Something is going to get done. We have two more days to get a trade done and at this point, we sort of have to. I believe a trade will happen for a starting caliber player before the Memphis deal is finalized.
I think the main question at this point is how much are we gonna have to overpay and who for?

I"m pretty sure Graham/NAW/BI/Zion/JV are the starters. the weak spots are backup 2 and backup 4.

Unless they think Murphy will be ready to contribute as a bench shooter right away, it feels like they need to add more shooting at both the 2 and 4.

Two paths to getting Dragic - both involve expanding Memphis trade.
Either add J Hart via sign and trade or you can give Toronto Iwundu and maybe a 2nd. They also get a big exception. Then, you trade Sato for a forward. Still have exceptions too
Crewz musings
Dragic does make a lot of sense for us...
I proposed off of this a Sato, Gabriel, 2nds for Bogi. Not sure if that is legal so forgive me if not.
Maybe re-sign Willy to min
Dragic / Kira
NAW / Graham / Didi
Ingram / Naji / Temple
Zion / Bogi / Trey
JV / Hayes / Willy
Thoughts?

Solid, can’t wait to compete for the play in

You don't think that's a playoff team?
Got shooting and some good defenders. Seems like a solid team to me.
