Clippers send:

Clarence Weatherspoon
Isaiah Rider

Spurs send:

Tom Gugliotta
Bo Outlaw

Accept.

Edit: Forgot to add that this is to be processed after my trade with Lakers, aka after FA. (I mean id think it obvious as I don’t officially have the pieces im trading yet)

Accept.

Market for Googs was a little drier than expected. Had some solid offers but unfortunately contracts on some players were expensive, which could put cap at jeopardy several season from now, and I was worried to be stuck with a contract like that. That combined with some weak GMs didn't want to improve their team for some reason...

I get an expiring in Weatherspoon. And we'll see what I can do with Rider, although he doesn't exactly fit in my team's timeline.

uh...what?

Need some picks going to Spurs lol

Yeah, the Clippers easily win this trade

Oh and as per my discussion with Spurs, to be processed after my trade with Lakers, aka after FA. (I mean id think it obvious as I don’t officially have the pieces im trading yet)

Edited OP to reflect this so as to not render this confusing.

Yeah, very easily.

I mean. We have nearly a week before the season starts. Could have waited a little longer tbh. Especially if you admitting to losing the deal.

Not much of a market for Googs as mentioned prior. I’m only going with Clips offer because Clarence is an expiring, and while Isaiah has a longer contract than I like, it isn’t as expensive/long as some of the other contracts offered by other teams.Definitely not a good offer, but at least it satisfies a couple of things that other offers I’ve received didn’t have. I also wanted to get rid of Googs/Bo before the season started so that we don’t win as much.

Ok if it gets voided if people aren’t happy.

Gathers and a 1st for Gugliotta and Outlaw. Nice.

Would of loved to take on Googs but trading Higgins means not being able to resign Peja.

sheesh kabobs

So you're saying no one would offer expirings and a 1st for Gugs and no one would offer expirings and a 1st for Bo?

I have a hard time seeing that.

Sometimes that's how the cookie crumbles. You win some, you lose some, you break even on some.

Yes, all 3 or 4 offers I got for Googs had no expirings. Some long, some not so long, expensive contracts. I reached out to a few teams like the Jazz and Pacers for a expiring + pick for Googs, but they had no interest.
Bo did have expirings and picks, which I wanted to do, but pete wouldn’t trade for Googs without Bo. So I was backed in to a corner with that.

Personally, I would have traded Bo for picks and expirings, and Googs for mostly expirings. But I get it, market sucks. Inflation!!! ;p
