DeJuan Blair?

DeJuan Blair's name has been thrown out their many times now. Rumors is that he'll be traded at some point this season. There is almost no chance of this kid being with the Spurs by the end of next season.

Blair is a good young Center/Power Forward that has falling off the Spurs depth chart. He averaged 8.5PPG and 6.4RPG in 20.2MPG in his first three years. Im not sure what and how much it'll cost to make a trade for this kid, but he would be a real nice piece to add to this young team toward the future. As much interests as we showed in trying to sign Carl Landry (Golden State), why are we not showing any interest in a kid like Blair. Well, I hope we do at some point.

Yall thoughts?

After various surgeries in high school, Blair was left without any anterior cruciate ligaments in his knees.[4]

On June 25, 2009 Blair was drafted by the San Antonio Spurs in the second round with 37th overall pick. His stock fell because of questions surrounding his durability and knee surgeries. Blair signed with the Spurs within weeks of the draft on July 17.[11]

It's not much of a secret. He's never averaged more than 21 minutes per game. He still seems to be a productive player though. Would be worth acquiring if the cost is right.

    • Sam Darnold was the 2018 QB. Not Mayfield, Allen, or Jackson. Firing Rhule was the key. Wilks, Darnold, CMC, Rico, TMac, Moore, and Coker would have gotten the job done. Toss in all the extra picks wasted on day one and day 2 project players, and the Panthers have a top defense too.  
    • That’s if you draft the wrong quarterback. Patriots aren’t having to do that. They are straight in year two.  I suppose you could argue that they did draft the wrong one and then built like you said.  The difference is, if that were the case, they moved on from their mistake. That’s what I am thinking about that. 
    • Yeah. That start to his career was about as bad as it can get. In New York, Meat grinder press corps, of the first degree,    When he came here he was on OC 3 - in year 3.  And people in this fan base that think they are smart, could not take that stuff into account.  Now, most of the smart ones are not Bryce Stans but Bryce gets 4 damned years free pass. At least 3  The fail of the organization AND fan base in general, fuging shamefully short sighted,  And the choking thing, players have to fail before they succeed. With very few exceptions. Last year was really his first meaningful, high stakes game. Okay, he didn’t play well. They learn from that, or are supposed to. You don’t throw out a guy with all those tools and with his rocky did him no favors background for not being perfect right away.  He might suck in the SB, but he proved a ton this year.    If we’d have had any patience he was the guy to use it on, not Bryce Young.
