He is a chode. No doubt. I think a d+ or c- is about right though.
The difference between C and F depends on Gay.

Unless the Spurs find some way to steal Irving a D+ sounds about right.
Pelton, like most of the prominent "stat geeks", is extremely arrogant and criticizing Spurs has become nearly as much in vogue among them as worshipping Warriors.
That said, he's obviously not wrong in this case, but I don't know how he doesn't realize Gay will primarily play PF and neglected to mention that Gasol's third year is a partial guarantee or that Simmons was a net negative player.
How many years have "pundits" doubted the Spurs and called for their death and it didn't work out?
Going on 10 years now, eh?
They keep doing it and then keep calling themselves out Mid-season-Late-season saying "You'd think we'd know better by now..."
Eff them and eff all of you. Effing punks.
Yes, yes. Never doubt the personnel PATFO brings in.
Loading up on protein. Just be glad he didn't complain about lack of rice or sour cream.
It's a fair grade, tbh. Why should the Spurs get anything higher when they handed out two terrible contracts to an aging role player and a limited one? When our hopes are riding on Rudy Gay staying healthy, it's not a successful offseason.
And this is suppose to be our 2nd best player. Damn Kawhi you deserve better than this.
damn...
i think the cavs had a better offseason....
The Gasol signing really isn't going to affect next free agency. He's essentially an expiring contract after this season b/c only 6 mil is guaranteed in year 3. It would be pretty easy to dump him.
Lol. Would be fine if anderson would be worth more than a wet fart
How exactly is this wasting Kawhi's prime years? What moves could the Spurs have made to get them close to the Warriors?
Trade machine said gasol and lma for lebron worked
The only flagrant move was signing that pinche piece of crap Gasol to kill cap space for next summer.
Everything else I'm not sad about because it wouldn't bring them closer to knocking off GS. I think Mills is a great locker guy and the Spurs rewarded his loyalty from the last contract. Manu also is a vital glue guy.
I like the potential of White and Paul, plus Forbes may break out. I mean if Jon Simmons came out of no where I think these others could too.
Not saying that they absolutely won't beat GS but it's a long shot. I'm all for enjoying 17-18 as a Leonard MVP type season and expecting the following season as a real challenge to GS.
The Spurs will be rebuilding in two years so it's moot.
While that is true, he's not really saying SA will be a bad team. He's saying they had a bad off season.
From what he mentioned hes correct right now. SA didn't improve, but they got more expensive and they didn't truly address any needs (PG in particular which is an even bigger hole without TP now) while also bringing on money that eats away at future cap space.
Spurs can still be good. They also had a pretty poor off season on paper.
So many depressed cry baby pussies in this thread because we didn't sign Lebron James, we paid Gasol and Mills (key contributors) more than minimum wage, and we didn't keep Simmons (who wanted way too much money).
How hard is this for you morons whining to understand? Maybe the Spurs will still be great...But they didn't have a good off-season.
These grades by a bunch of know-it all fux don't mean jack...half these guys never bounced a basketball in their lives.
The gasol contract is just dumb. Everyone's going to opt in next summer and the Spurs are going to be completely screwed for the next two years.
And just look at this ty lineup the front office has put together for next season It's basically kawhi, an uninterested LMA, and a lot of spare parts that wouldn't be getting much playing time on good teams.
And none of this is by design. They just ed up. It's obviously the Spurs were expecting to use the space provided by gasol opting out, or else they wouldn't have had him opt out.
Drunkford needs to disappear. Let him get behind the wheel.
This. Its all about the Warriors or nothing. I still say we come in second. I think we have to believe that LMA is going to have a bounce back year. If Gay turns out to be a good move, we're in business.
The team will be fine; let things materialize before going full emotional wreck👍🏾😉 a healthy productive RudyGay is worth a B or B+ in my opinion. Maybe Brandon Paul surprises us....... Spurs usually don't jump out there giving away guaranteed money to unknown comodities.
