Plan B- Shawn Marion

[TSpence26]

I am still hearing that Shawn Marion and Spurs have a mutual interest, I will keep you updated.

[jag]

Just stop

Pink this imposter, tbh.

Sources say Kate Upton has an interest in letting me fuck her. I'll keep you updated.

Let it ride. Offseason would be boring otherwise. Football is not until 3 weeks away.

You too?

Damn. But then I was not to supply updates. Part of the MLE clause.

I like Marion, I want a backup SF that can also play some PF in small ball, but I'm a shooter, and I just can't seem to accept Marion's jumpshot. His jumpshot puts me off so badly.

What do you guys think?

Yes, Marion shot is the funkiest shot I've seen in the NBA. Barrys FT shooting is comparable. But he shot 36% from 3 and 48% from inside the Arc last season. Its effective at an NBA level. No need to change it.

[Ice009]

Yeah, since I'm a shooter, I just can't seem to accept his jumpshot. It's very hard for me to endorse signing anyone with that kind of form. I like the rest of Marion's game though, but just can't come to terms with his jumper. Who in the fuck let him shoot the ball like that when he was younger?

Question - Does anyone know if you can sign players to 1 year on the MLE? Some people suggest that we should keep the MLE and not spend it as it would affect next year's off-season money for free agency. Can someone explain to me what difference it would make to next off-season if they were to pocket the MLE?

Go back to being Robert Sacre's bitch.

[DJR210]

this fraud lakerfaggot has worn out his welcome

:lmao him being here is basically your fault singlehandedly with the fluff job you gave him the other night in the chat room

[benstanfield]

We already have a backup SF. His name is Manu Ginobili. Manu-Marion isn't a better backup combo than Beli-Manu against benches.

Players like Marion, Thabo, Prince, etc are only useful in the starting lineup when they can guard an opposing team's best perimeter scorer and take open threes created by others. If you bring him off the bench you are sticking him on the Alonzo Gee's of the league while not getting any isolation scoring or shot creation. There is a reason why once Thabo wasn't in the SL for OKC you never saw him again.

[SouthernFried]

I'm sorry, but we don't need another old veteran.

We have plenty right now.

[T Park]

Marion would fit in very well. Would love to see him here. Replace Bonner on the roster. Resign Baynes, end the Summer.

[jhuan16]

Are you 100% sure this time?

[TSpence26]

chat room, I am going in

[TSpence26]

anyone want to meet me there

:lol it was the heat of the moment tbh... i live in LA i love MVPau :cry

[TheCerebral1]

#### No. This is five years well too late.

[anakha]

I'm ambivalent on the possibility of Marion on the Spurs.

One the one hand, he's obviously a decent SF who can play smallball PF if needed. On the other hand, his 3P shooting is suspect enough that I'm not convinced he'll fit in as anything except a smallball PF on the Spurs.

If he's asking for the full MLE, I say pass.

Defense is the biggest concern here. Spurs struggled when Kawhi got in foul trouble early. Based off his performance last year against Kawhi, he can still give 20 mpg of stellar defense.

Plus like he said in an interview before, he was very knowledgable of the Spurs System bc he has been studying it since his Suns day. Diaw said the same thing and he caught on pretty fast. MLE this year should only be used on guy that is going to help the Spurs now. Duncan has two more good years left in him. Marion said he wanted to play for two more years but on a contending team. Win win for the Spurs IMO.

[mudyez]

would love him on our team...one more great passer that can play SF/PF.

[spursparker9]

I would love to see Pop demands Chip to change Marion shooting style. :lol

Agreed. We've no swingman defender except Kawhi in the team. (Sorry Green)

Marion is an incosistent shooter but he can help in the defense to back-up Kawhi.

I'm not sure about the market but can we bring Marion with using only biannual exception and not touching MLE.

It will take at least most if not all the MLE. He is worth it, IMO.

[montgod]

I see Spurs going with Butler or Lewis over Marion...

[xmas1997]

At this stage of his career I don't think he is worth the whole MLE because his defense isn't what it was and his offense is suspect But he may be the best option for what is left on the market.

[Beaverfuzz]

Fuck yes, Marion = rings!

[beirmeistr]

Didn't Boris play with Marion before? Maybe he can talk him into joining the Spurs.

[Taking it to the Hole]

Marion would be great if he could stay healthy but he has a tendency to get hurt. Spending the full MLE on an aging veteran with plaguing injuries worries me. I see him worth half of the MLE but to give him the full MLE seems to be overkill.

[Cowboys_Wear_Spurs]

Well, looks like the Spurs may get Marion. Would be a great signing and push the advantage clearly to the Spurs. Him nuetralizing Durant is why the Mavs had success against OKC of late.

[beirmeistr]

Come on, Pop, throw your 5 rings on the table

[montgod]

I read Marion wasn't too happy with Dallas cause he wants to continue to start and not be a backup. If he has that mindset, he wouldn't fit in with Spurs....or probably any where at his age.

[21209]

Another pipe dream.

He'll go where he has a chance to start.

What team could he start?

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

We should go get Raja and Barbosa as well.

[21209]

Nets, Lakers and Hawks are three I can think of.

[Cowboys_Wear_Spurs]

Nets, Lakers and Hawks are three I can think of.

But he specifically said he wanted to go to a contender, not pretenders.

[21209]

The Nets and Hawks are contenders-in the the wide open East

Even with the Lakers, they almost always find a way to get back into the playoff hunt with a surprising acquisition.

[BatManu20]

I would normally say no more old farts but Marion would be the exception. He doesn't play like he's 36. And with his minutes managed he could be a solid contributor. Good defender, can hit the corner 3, even with that hideous shot, is scrappy, and an underrated passer. Hope we find a way to sign him.

I'm sure we all remember what he did to us in game 2:

[Malik Hairston]

I wouldn't mind the signing, Spurs could use some defensive depth at the 3/4 hybrid position, but Marion was awful last year, he looks almost finished, tbh..

Below average offensive player and average defensive player, at this point..

I keep hearing that Marion is still a good defender, but all of his defensive metrics from last year were average/below average..

Spurs have 2 great perimeter defenders and the rest are average or worse, so they could use another perimeter defender, maybe Marion would look better on defense in a reduced role..

Well, Marion would not be the guy guarding the main perimeter offensive guy on the other team, that would be either Kawhi or Green.

[letmk]

I would love to see Marion backing up Kawhi. And he can play small ball 4 as well.

[DAF86]

If we're going to get a dude that can't shoot I would rather sign a young generic 6'7''/6'8'' athletic SF that has at least a chance at developing.

[davi78239]

If we can get Marion, I'd be really satisfied with the off season.

[BatManu20]

Shot 36% from 3 last season and that number would likely go up in our system. Marion will never be considered a great shooter but he's certainly a serviceable shooter at this point in his career.

[Sean Cagney]

Besides this thread and what this guy says is this even rumored right now? If not I would not count on getting Marion, even then it's a long shot.

[Richie]

Yeah he's not a great shooter, but some of his stats can be a little deceiving. He has a number of bad season averages when he hasn't taken many shots, if you look at just seasons when he averaged more than one 3PA/Game, he's shot 35% which is just about serviceable. He's also coming off a 36% season, so we're not talking Tony Allen levels of bad here.
