[SilverSpur]

Check out the house Scottie Pippen is building! Don't be like Scottie Kawhi...

Are you serious? D-Rob and Tim would've never pulled this shit. Couldn't he be donating that money to charity?

Not going to lie, I'm starting to get really worried about our new "great acquisition". First, he takes DAYS trying to decide where he wants to play. Once he finally gets his mind made up (who the FUCK takes 4-5 days to make a career decision???), he ends up taking our beloved Bruce's #12. Who the hell does this guy think he is?

Now he's building a god damn house for his shoes? This guy clearly isn't in the same mold of D-Rob and Duncan. I don't know about y'all, but I want him gone ASAP. Not to mention I saw pictures of him in the club with Kawhi a little while back...already having a bad influence on Kawhi. SMFH :bang

[iManu]

Shoes determine how you play. If Pete Maravich had a modern pair of shoes in college (and a three point line), he would have averaged more than 60.

[TEXICAN]

Its barley August, he's been a Spur for what a month? Don't worry Pop will give him the ol' "you've gotta get over yourself" before the season starts, and the rest of the guys will rub off on him as well.

Yeah... right now ... he's on the top of my list of players in the Spurs that I dislike!

Whats the problem? He can do whatever he wants with his money as long he is not doing Dennis Rodman emo shit.

Also the tiff he had with Lilliard sounds like Aldridge may have been the bitch. We'll see. First day of practice Pops should say "Aldridge, you're playing center...and stfu about it"

[TXstbobcat]

It's his money. He can do what ever he wants with it.

[Kool Bob Love]

Thank goodness he's here to lead the way. At least we know he won't be building brick houses when the game is on the line.

Pop has that kind of control over his own guys, not marquee FAs who he had to get on his knees for in order to sign.

SMFH :bangI agree on the house for shoes man but why not take a few days to decide your future in the league? There is nothing wrong with that because it's a tough decision to make and seriously 4 years somewhere is something you really want to decide if you want or not. The shoes though, a house? That is a bit much to build a house for shoes IMO and to own that many shoes but as long as he comes to play and they win then I could care less. Maybe he does donate to charity? Maybe he will this year in SA?

As long as he helps us win a title i could care less what he does offcourt.

[TEXICAN]

He won't.

So your saying since LMA was a big free agent Pops going to change the culture he's established for nearly 2 decades and let LMA do as he pleases? Sounds legit to me, that Pop is such a push over..

I had 'un in 2012, around the summertime and early fall. I was especially into AdiZero's. I wanted to get a job at Subway just to afford myself the entire collection (4 at the time) of the AdiZero's. Ended up not working that summer and instead just getting the discounted autographed Dwight Howard ones ($29) because they had Orlando Magic colors and he had just been traded to the Lakers. The entire collection would have been a serious waste of money on my part, honestly.

[cjw]

I'd rather him be a shoe collector than someone who fancies a little too much drink. Or someone who likes dangerous activities. Let him have his hobby, just like Duncan dorks out with D&D.

The shoes need to be kept in na adequate envinronment to not get 'ginobilized' or 'bonnered'. In the wrong envinronment, the shoes just start to self its biodegradation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biodegradable_athletic_footwear

More interesting is that the house is in Dallas....

Poor Cuban, so much talent so close....

To be fair, he doesn't owe us or Joseph that. He was the biggest a free agent on the market this offseason. . .you don't ask them to make sacrifices before they even join your team. He wouldn't have come here if he needed to do that. Nothing wrong with him expecting a max deal considering his talent level and age. Maybe when/if he re-signs with us he will take a small paycut. But right now? Would be silly to expect that man.

As for the shoe house. . .its weird as fuck but who cares. If he wants to build an apartment for his cat he can do that too for all I care. As long as he's playing well for us and stays healthy.

Not saying he owes it to anyone or that I blame him. However, it is concerning to me. Players often make certain sacrifices when they hunger for a ring(s). Look at all the money that Duncan left on the table; and he already has five rings.

[Chillen]

As long as the effort is there on the basketball court consistently, I could care less what LMA does with his earnings, it's his anyway let him do what he wants. For those uptight ones, chill, it's his life.

Cory Joseph isn't worth the 7.5M/yr he got. The drop off between him and McCallum isn't as big as you think, tbh. Besides, LMA already turned down millions from Portland to sign here, so there's no reason he should take 2/3rds of the Max just to keep a third string PG.

[YGWHI]

Thank goodness he's here to lead the way. At least we know he won't be building brick houses when the game is on the line.

You didn't watch his series against Memphis last year.

In last regular season, he was a volume scorer, too. A lot of points on low efficiency.

But I'm confident the Spurs system will make his court life much easier, his game is a perfect fit.

His off-court life? If it doesn't interfere with his work and team chemistry, nobody should say anything about it.

Absolutely biased comment. Let me get this straight - someone who likes shoes and decides to build a house for his shoes is not okay, but Tim Duncan having a garage full of muscle cars is perfectly okay?

You're missing the whole point of exactly how the Spurs are run - bringing diversity together through basketball. These diversities begin with different hobbies. If you can't get that through your head, I don't think you really understand what the Spurs as an organization aims to do.

[Kidd K]

Not saying he owes it to anyone or that I blame him. However, it is concerning to me. Players often make certain sacrifices when they hunger for a ring(s). Look at all the money that Duncan left on the table; and he already has five rings.

Like I said, he wouldn't have come here if there was low money on the table. If I was Aldridge I would want the money because I would deserve it and would get it literally anywhere else. That does not mean I don't want to win. I also would not pay nearly 10% of my salary just to have a replaceable guy like Corey Joseph on my team. I would not think that would be worth my money.

Nor is building a shoe house, but that's another story. :lol

I'm glad they hung out together. I half-expected Kawhi to be sitting alone in a booth in the far corner of the place with the light broken...

[daslicer]

I don't think he's a bad guy considering he's close friends with Patty Mills. I'm sure if he was a toxic person that Mills would not be good friends with him.

Re: Cojo / Taking less points

Great points, guys. At the time, I thought CoJo would've signed for less; like 3.5 M or less. Maybe, he would have if the Spurs made a quick offer. I am willing to bet so, anyhow. So, I just thought it was a bit of a tell to me that LMA allegedly is so concerned about winning, but then he doesn't make a sacrifice? Again, he's within his rights. I'm just saying it gave me pause.

It's been said he would have went elsewhere if he wasn't getting a max contract. Sure. But my point is then, that maybe it's just a sell that winning a ring isn't so high on his list.

No way a prime FA star signs in marketing hell , submits to a system that sees his raw numbers diminished AND takes less money.

[TXstbobcat]

We are spoiled. But sacrifice is a big part of why we've been spoiled. You have a perennial champion like Duncan signing for about forty percent of his market value and no ring LMA signing for top dollar; just saying, it's a contrast.

[dweaver99027]

Duncan has been here for 20 years. He knows the Spurs will take care of him for life if he requests it. LMA only knows the Spurs' rep and their championship pedigree.

[bic50]

Well,he is a black american. Spurs fans better don't give too much love for Kawhi or he will pull another Portland/Lillard card.
David Robinson and David west are also black americans who sacrificed. We lost an aussie, italian canadian to money.

There are no guarantees, LMA could have taken less and still be ringless by the time he retires. Im hoping we ring for TD and D.West though. Lma is here to help lead the charge.

This, tbqh. It's unreasonable to expect LaMarcus to take less money to join a new organization. There's mutual respect between the two parties, but nowhere near the level of trust and loyalty that has been built between the Spurs and their franchise cornerstone. Maybe in a couple years (after a couple championships?) he'll be in a position to take less so that the team can keep on its current path.

And before anyone brings in West, that's also not a like situation as he's in the twilight of his career,whereas Aldridge is in his prime.

No one is begrudging anyone making money. It's the "I'm so fucking rich, look at me, I'm building a house for my shoe collection" attitude. It's one thing to be rich - another to flaunt one's wealth vulgarly and ostentatiously.

[thousandth]

The list of invitees to next week's USA Basketball minicamp at UNLV was announced Thursday, and the names of those attending but not participating trump those who will be playing at the Mendenhall Center and in the Aug. 13 Blue-White scrimmage at the Thomas & Mack Center.

LeBron James is coming to Las Vegas. So are Kevin Durant, Chris Paul, Blake Griffin, Kevin Love, Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, Carmelo Anthony, Russell Westbrook, Kyrie Irving, Dwight Howard, John Wall, LaMarcus Aldridge and Paul George. None of the above will participate, but they will be there for team meetings and other nonbasketball team activities.

He said it was going to be a house behind his house. I'm assuming it will be similar to a shed but just fancier.. That wouldn't really be too much different than a tool shed or pool house or any other structure made to hold specific things. In this case, it will be shoes. Just because he said house doesn't mean it has to be huge. I think people are taking it a bit too far.

Yeah, from what I understand, it's not going to be a full on house, sounds more like a fancier shed/storage area. I think people have taken this too literally thinking that it's going to be a proper house.
