"Vagrancy wasn't it? That's gonna look real good on his grave stone in Arlington."
The local ESPN feed 98.7 had Bucher on moments ago and asked him if it were a foregone conclusion that LMA was locked into San Antonio. Not verbatim, but, LMA is doing the grand tour to be courted, but, that he is being advised by his people that once Duncan/Manu/Parker/Pop retire he won't have a pot to piss in and the proverbial window to throw it out of. If he stays in Holidayland, gets a haircut and doesn't wear the flag patch on his jacket will be better off.
Bucher came off as committed.
he sucks. Hasnt been strongly connected in years.
Makes no sense. Kawhi and Green are the selling points for LMA, not fat ass Parker and certainly not an about to retire Manu. Duncan is also somewhat of a selling point, since has a 2 good years left and Aldridge would know that they can make a serious run in that time frame. Pop is also going nowhere for the next few years.
I thought Pop said he was leaving as soon as Duncan retires?
Whats two good years when you coast the whole season on the strength of your team
# got
He'd be a fool to sign in SA.....and doomed I might add..they would have a 1 yr window at best and then its over..they have no upside and no fututre
He could have stayed in Portland with Lillard and Batum... and made more money. LMA is looking for a team to carry him while he does the bare minimum.
That's the company line. Your rests in Duncan, Parker, Manu and Pop. What you're referencing is projection.
It is a strong hypothesis, and you know it, Midst.
We have a 23 year old Finals MVP and DPOY. One of the best 3 and D players in the league who is still young. And the best FO in basketball that knows how to build rosters.
All the Lakers have is the guy in your sig who shot 39% against the top 80 NCAA defenses
Him and Lillard don't get along.
Tim & Amy didn't get along and look where that le.....bad example.
You got Duncan, Parker, Mono and Pop. That's what you got.
thats not true
Wrong. What we got won a Finals MVP and a DPOY. Manu and Parker ain't been selling points for 4 seasons.
lakers
The Spurs 5 bench players would beat the Lakers starters in a series in 5 games.
You can listen as well. 98.7 has a website where you can listen in.

You're splittin' hairs, Midst. Don't do it. I have you this time. Don't revert.
Pop signed a contract extension last summer. Even if he retires from coaching in 2-3 years, he'll still be president of operations like Riley. By then maybe Bud or Brown comes back. Pop has mentored many current and former coaches. Won't be hard for him to pick a successor.
The Spurs will have the best window to win in the next couple of years and that is also Aldridge's last couple of prime years. What happens after that is speculation. Spurs do have a 24 yr old FMVP and DPOY on their team that's locked up. They have Green who is also locked up in a friendly contract. In a few years, Parker's contract won't seem so bad and the Spurs should still have loads of cap space. Spurs can win now and have pieces for the future.
He's not an all-star... not even close.
What prompted this thread? Did the Lakeshow strike out on Tyson Chandler too?
A ray of hope that you may not get LMA.
