Marilyn Dubinski: They definitely batted at least two out of three. They basically got a free second round pick from the Heat to take and waive Dewayne Dedmon, and Josh Richardson wasn’t a part of their future, so getting a potential new “Patty Mills” in Devonte’ Graham plus four second-round picks for a player on an expiring contract is a win. (At worst, all are very tradeable assets down the line).
The only move I’m on the fence about and will remain there until at least next season is the Jakob Poeltl trade. After all the talk about wanting to keep him, my guess is the two sides realized they probably wouldn’t reach an agreement in the offseason, so the Spurs pulled the plug while they could get something for him.
