    He's in his 30s man. And Danny Green+Kyle Anderson+Euro big man prospect+A future Spurs 1st is a far better package than what we could offer realistically (basically anyone outside of Dame/CJ/Nurk/Hark).

    I don't know about that one. Why would Memphis want Danny Green? Take him out and it'd be pretty easy to match an Anderson/late 1st offer.

    Memphis needs a shooting guard with Tony Allen gone, he may not be the defender Allen is but he is no slouch and can hit the 3.

    A rebuilding team doesn't need Danny Green. Especially not as a centerpiece to a Gasol deal. They can do much much better.

    Danny Green doesn't hold any value to a rebuilding team. Harkless is a better prospect than Kyle Anderson, who has shown nothing in his career. Our 1st in 2018 is better than a 2018 Spurs 1st. Vonleh and a 2020 1st holds more value than Mulitinov.

    I don't think Memphis wants to rebuild, I think they're looking to reload. Now if they trade Conley I will believe they are rebuilding.

    I've never heard of a team trading their best player (under multiple years of control) that wasn't categorized as anything but a rebuild.

    Disagree. Kyle Anderson would be getting a shit ton of minutes on a worse team than San Antonio. He's been the best player in SL, which isn't everything, for sure, but it isn't nothing. He also has better defensive numbers than Harkless, which is a bit surprising for someone called Slo-Mo. I'd LOVE to get Anderson.

    I wish we could take Bradley but the odds of that are very very low
