CP3/Spurs/Jazz Possibilities

Lmao
CP3 would for one never go to Utah and
It still wouldn't make them close 2 GSW
Paul has underachieved at every stop on his road so why would that change going to Jazz?

If we got CP3 and hayward stays, we are gonna be so close to Warriors. And only team in the league who has a chance to compete with them.

Paul has underachieved lol
He has been the best pg, in a league full of great point guards, for most years of his career. Guaranteed hall of famer, many many all star appearances, many all nba teams and all defensive teams.......

You could say his teams have underachieved, it is in fact a team sport that he plays, but Paul himself has been a fantastic nba player and every team in the league would love to have guys like him.

CP3 singlehandedly almost beat us in the first round. Maybe you havent seen the series?
It is not underachievement but unlucky of him that things always went wrong for clippers in the playoff time in recent years.
He is one of the best pg ever played in the game.
 
It would be asinine for Paul to stay in LA and continue to fight against Golden State with their talent pool. I don't think $$$ is as big of a consideration as some are making out here. He already has more than he will ever spend, and he lacks a serious trophy.

He would be a fool to not take the opportunity to team up with Leonard, Aldrich, and Popovich.

We ARE getting Paul or Westbrook! Preferably Westbrook but I will take Paul or George or Butler. Sorry Hill, but you got greedy an we are in win now mode.

My child, I pray that you will begin listening to those who consistently implore you to cease-and-desist when the cotton swab comes out soaked with blood. They are only acting in your benefit.
 
The Spurs would not lose Aldridge. But they would likely have to lose either Gasol or Parker and all of their free agents. Manu would have to take a huge pay cut to stay if he doesn't retire. And even after all of that maneuvering San Antonio wouldn't be able to offer CP3 the max. He'd have to settle for around 23-24 million per year. I just don't see it happening.


I think the Spurs are ACTIVELY trying to move Aldridge.

I would be stunned if they moved Aldridge before Gasol or Parker in an attempt to bring in CP3. Gasol is going to be 37 this July. Parker is 35 and plays the same position as CP3. Manu is going to be 40 in July. None of these guys will be around in the NBA much longer. Aldridge is the only relatively young player in the core around Kawhi.

With or without Paul I think they will try to move Aldridge. I think Pop just sees it as a failed experiment and he doesn't fit their system.
 
The only thing with the Spurs is they're always good, and so their draft picks will always be 25 or lower. Depending on what happens with the Jazz off-season, I wouldn't mind Aldridge if the Spurs gave up a few first rounders for the relief. Rotating Aldridge, Favors (if he's healthy) and Gobert between the 4-5 would be a nasty front court. So many possibilities this off-season.

Yeah but if you are good enough to gets stars to join your team you dont need top 25 pick. Just continue to hit on the late round picks and keep bringing over their seemingly endless supply of previously drafted European talent.
 
Can we make room to absorb Aldridge without sending anything back except maybe some future picks? I doubt they go that route but if they do we should be in position to grab him.

Then go after PG13. That's my starting lineup next year that wins it all and is a real possibility:

Exum
PG13
Hayward
Aldridge
Gobert

Aldridge/Lyles/Bolomboy
Gobert/Withey

13 players. Damn that would be killer.

Back up bigs is the biggest weakness in that team.
 
I don't disagree that the Spurs might look to move Aldridge, but they certainly won't be dumping him. They'll want lots of value back.
 
If I were Utah, I would have to be paid to take Aldridge. The game has moved away from him, he is only getting older, and he needs touches to be happy.

I agree 100%. He has value, but not for us long term. Might as well keep Favors and use the additional money to address the wing.
