I was hoping this was a gag.

[Robz4000]

So the Spurs won't be contenders for another five years. Great.

Dude wants to get paid like Manu. Doesn't the guy already know he is getting his legacy checks already.

[Canyonero]

Why not 10?

^ "Spurfan" (player fan) celebrating the demise of the Spurs' relevance over the next five years. ^

If he is willing to adjust his role and his game throughout that process, I see no reason why this should be unwelcome news. The Spurs have no "future Tony Parker" guaranteed to show up in the next 5 years, so having a calm veteran presence as the roster endures more turnover (e.g. Ginobili calling it a career) will be crucial.

I'll stop watching the Spurs and hope Kawhi gets traded. No lie.

It's disgusting really. I've had these exact same thoughts. I don't want Tony closing any ing game at least.

[DenialTwist]

I feel the same. Parker's time as a starter is up already. If he is a starter for another 5 years it will be horribe. I also think LaMarcus and Kawhi might end up leaving if the Spurs are not in contention the next 4 years.

[lmbebo]

If he is willing to accept a lesser role, ok. If he wants to be playing starter mins and start, then yeah, its an issue.

[DeRozan m8]

What a ing piece of deluded semen

[RD2191]

If Parker really cares about the team he'll give up his starting spot and move to the bench. Mills is far from a good PG but at least he brings energy/hustle and a little youth. Man, the Spurs really messed up by letting cojo walk.

Let's just hope Pop has the balls to move Parker to the bench.

[NASpurs]

While not improving his jumper to it being almost automatic and becoming even slower, yay I can't wait. He'll probably want a D Wade contract too.

[Snaq O'Meal]

Let's just hope Pop has the balls to move Parker to the bench.

Parker already said he'll do anything Pop wants, including coming off the bench.

Whatever happens from now on, it's all on Pop.

[Darius Bieber]

Start Murray at this point

Thats the thing though, he's always himself before the team.

Yes, because we certainly haven't been contenders for the last 14 years he's been with us.

Some of you guys are listening to the Porker Club too much. I get that he's not the player he used to be, but it really amazes me that one of the Spurs greatest players gets so much hate around here.

I'll agree with this. He needs to take a page out of Manu's book if he really wants to stick around that long.
