It’s not an extra cost. If we don’t pay and release Russ, the money will HAVE to be distributed amongst our current roster. That’s the penalty of not meeting the salary floor. There are only two scenarios: 1. Trade for Russ and a FRP, release him, and make the salary floor. 2. Don’t do the...

I'm happy to see he's gotten over his early season struggles and has found a groove. Sometimes it takes guards with more "skill" than athleticism time to adjust to the better athletes in the NBA. If Wesley can find his groove (and confidence) too, then this is easily the Spurs best draft class...

but spurs are so classy :cry 1621256101634396161

Jamie Galbreath throws cold water on Phillips Curve, NAIRU, potential output, and money-supply growth hypotheses for inflation. He think the Fed may do more harm than good by treating the symptom than the cause, which in his opinion is cost driven. ...

I watched him a lot during the game to focus in on his skillset. One of the most telling things about him was when he got isolated above the 3 pt. line on defense against their PG Mackey (?) No. 10. In one instance Mackey tried several moves against Barlow and Barlow had the right foot work to...

Well we know 99% make more than $200k per year

Terrible timing for Arsenal, right after s coaching change at Everton

They've already picked it. It'll cost them a lot and shows they're not ready to accept they've made a huge mistake.

The only way I see us getting involved is if the Nets actually would consider Russ as an asset once we bought him out amd it is pre arranged that he signs there after a buyout. Lakers - Irving Nets - JRich, 1 unprotected Lakers FRP, Russ as a buyout Spurs - Russ to be bought out, 1 unprotected...

Considering Nets will be looking for good players to contend with, not picks or tax relief, a deal with Utah or Indiana would make more sense for them than SA. Something like Conley and Beasley to Nets, Irving and Clarkson to Lakers and Westbrook + picks to Utah is quite balanced.

I see this as a golden opportunity for nets to get rid of ben simmons. Ship that sorry ass white nigga to lakers with flat earther to extend the missery of that franchise. :lol

Thanks for the numbers. I didn't know the Nets' tax burden was that steep. What's the smallest amount of salary the Spurs can send out while taking back only Westbrook? I'd imagine that if the Nets are worried about the tax they would want to take back as little salary as possible. That and they...

Why would you think the Spurs care if they are spending the same money with Russ or without him in this scenario? Would you rather spend the money or spend the same money + get a pick? Seems easy to me. I’m not saying absorb Russ and send no players out. Spurs would be sending out money too

rofl sons, like clockwork whenever a flashy Cowboys player is up for a big contract he's all of a sudden "Top 5 player at his position" (Miles Austin, Vander Esche, Jaylon Smith, etc) now Tony Pollard is ranked the 3rd best RB in the NFL :lol ...

Nothing bad, just the “Hollywood” type. Nothing wrong with that but also we’re never drafting a player that relies a lot on athleticism. Wouldn’t be surprised if we see less of Tre and more of 22 handling the PG spot so we know who’s Jo that’s going to be in the long run

Now that's a deal !! Lakers and Nets wouldn't do it but that is fair value for the spurs for taking on such a ridiculous salary.

I'll bet half of Spurs Talk never have/had any relations with girls/women too until well past their 20s. They are just too afraid to tell anyone on here.

We both know there is a salary floor for the spurs, but what I'm saying is that don't spend money for Russ or any other high salary player that gets us to the floor and beyond and then release him. Sure it gets you off the salary floor and possibly a first round pick a few years from now but...

Also the racist tweets Trump sends about Haley are going to be hilarious :lmao I was literally loling when I saw this one:

Great article about how Nimrata "Nikki" Haley is basically an opportunist who just wants political power with no real ideals https://www.politico.com/interactives/2021/magazine-nikki-haleys-choice/ The fact she's gonna come in like 4th place in her home state while McMaster, Graham and Tim...

Love these offensively skilled guys. A bit redundant with Malaki, but you keep trying until one of them works out (not that we have seen Malaki’s ceiling yet, nowhere close).

:lmao "neat shapes and whole counties" what a crock of shit The DeSantis map violates the Ohio rules in countless way Ohio rule - counties can't be split more than 3 ways Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, Orange, and Polk are all split 4 ways...Dade and Broward are excusable but there's absolutely...

With Tre and Jeremy out, this is his golden opportunity. So far so good.

I think if anything, Biden being president and not know where the fuck he is most days just shows how much influence that position has on the economy.

I acknowledged late career ring chasers. Kareem was a trade. Wilt was a trade. Unibrow was a trade. Kobe was a trade. Two big fish in the last 27 years. Two. If the Lakers go completely to shit, no one will sign there, and no one will want to be traded there.

I think their lux tax multiplier at this point is 3-4x so that final year actually costs them 30-40mm ish

Just because you have to hit a salary floor doesn’t mean you waste your valuable cap space that NO other team has to absorb Westbrook. Plenty of teams need that space … possibly even small pieces of it … to make trades happen. Stranger things have happened, but they could net lottery protected...

So there is hope that Brian Wright can work some magic in the next few days and pull off a complex stunning trade.

Definitely an Arsenal performance of yesteryear, no answers for the press and dominated physically...by Everton :lol
