[Marcus Bryant]

Heh.

[B1gduff]

How does this guy rate Defensively? looks like he can score and shoot the 3.

[Marcus Bryant]

Besides him having 3 months to live because of plantar fasciitis he's a decent shooter and would add some depth at the 3.

[Marcus Bryant]

On the one hand, making a MLE offer forecloses whatever possibility remains of Morris ending up in SA and solves an issue for the shady ass Knicks who just screwed you, but on the other you could conceivably end up with a talented player on a short deal and free up Carroll to spend more time playing the 4.

[Marcus Bryant]

Not to mention the Knicks are trying to land both Morris and Bullock, so there would be some tit for tat if the Spurs extended an offer to Bullock.

I'd offer about a mill more than NY can, using their room exception.

[RC_Drunkford]

offer him 6 Million, see if the Knicks match. You'll either get Morris or Bullock, nothing better out there anyway

[SpurSpike]

Is it possible to try a sign and trade for Morris and then use the MLE on Bullock just to send a message to the Nicks?

I wish.

[Seventyniner]

Is it possible to try a sign and trade for Morris and then use the MLE on Bullock just to send a message to the Nicks?

Yes this is possible if Boston didn't have to renounce Morris's rights to clear enough space to sign Kemba. I'm still not sure about this.

But doing this would make the Spurs just as bad, even though it would be poetic justice.

[look_at_g_shred]

Would rather play KJ

[Dr. John R. Brinkley]

If they traded Marco, maybe...?

[8FOR!3]

Hey they started the shit, all is fair after that.

The Knicks want him specifically for spacing. He would do the same thing here. There's a lot to be said for developing young players, but Bullock is a proven player. It's not as bad as it looks.

After what's happened, I don't see how you being Morris on no matter what. I'm sure the rest of the team would say they don't think about it - but that doesn't mean they don't think about it. And I don't see how Pop could possibly not hold a bit of a grudge.

It was a mercenary agreement to begin with for both parties. Clearly his desire to have an option to enter free agency next season meant that he would've been one and done in SA after next season, only having taken the offer after the money dried up and having an opportunity to start. From the Spurs' side, I think they opted for skillset fit first and foremost and perhaps weren't thrilled by his representation.

[spurraider21]

well i mean he's a guy in the nba and he's 6'7, so he meets the SpursTalk stanley johnson test

Players have to pass a johnson test? No wonder there's hardly any white guys.

[kobyz]

Danny Green clone!

[Pavlov]

well i mean he's a guy in the nba and he's 6'7, so he meets the SpursTalk stanley johnson testThis guy can actually shoot though. Not ideal for the lineup but useful.

Guess the Spurs have to wait things out.

1) Bullock agrees to take less from the Knicks and they get both Bullock and Morris.

2) Bullock doesn't take less from the Knicks so the Knicks take Bullock. Spurs get Morris.

3) Bullock doesn't take less from the Knicks so the Knicks take Morris. Spurs can get Bullock.

4) The Spurs aren't interested in Bullock at all

Bah.

Signing Bullock allows you to completely move on from Belinelli and possibly avoid having to overpay Forbes next summer. It wouldn't be a bad consolation prize ... as long as nothing is seriously wrong with him.

:lol They can completely move on from Belinelli now

There could still be situations where his three-point shot is needed, especially with Bertans gone. Unless you're cool with playing 1980s ball, tbh.

im fuckin around tbh

my plan is to prayingdog.jpg that the knicks shit falls apart and we land morris. other than that, i dont know that bullock moves the needle. just adds redundancy. i prefer singleton who can at least occupy the position morris was meant to and bertans vacated

1st: we hit the power with a mini EMP.
It won't last long, but it will give us time to get through the initial barriers and shut down some cameras while the chaos is riding high...

Wait... you're talking about something else.

[Mugen]

They have Fatty and your boy Bryn, right? I expect improvement from DWhite and Lonnie looks like he can at least be respectable from deep.

Sure, it's nice to have Beli as your 12th man to call upon if needed but if he's on the roster, I'd be more afraid of Pop playing him in front of Walker as soon as Lonnie shows any emotion after a big shot tbh.

[Pavlov]

[Dex]

Unpopular opinion: that haircut is stupid.

Same goes for Lonnie tbh.

I never once saw Beli in a coffeegang photo tbh. Maybe Pop might play Lonnie ahead of him after all...

[spurraider21]

That would be great if he's even under consideration.
as opposed to bullock who wouldn't be moving the needle if he's even under consideration? do we have any indication that bullock is on the spurs radar any more than singleton is?

[Pavlov]

Belinelli is the most prolific three-point shooter of the bunch. Forbes is actually underwhelming in terms of volume.

The Spurs were last in the league in attempts last season. You take away Belinelli and Bertans -- and give Mills a lesser role (very likely to happen despite the shtick due to increased minutes for Murry and White) -- and you're looking at a team that shoots significantly fewer threes.

You good with that?

[spurraider21]

No.

if we're just wishcasting way as well aim higher than a marco replacement while we still have a marco lying around

[spurraider21]

Singleton isn't exactly shooting for the moon tbh.
but he actually addresses the present concern (the void left by morris renege and bertans trade), unlike bullock

How many million need to be put aside for a guy like Singleton who averaged 9 and 4 in Europe? :lol

I disagree with the significantly fewer threes assertion especially if DWhite, Derozan, and Dejounte have been asked to work on outside shooting. Add in Lonnie who looks to have a respectable appetite from shooting outside....

But even playing along with your scenario, ...You're telling me the Spurs replace Beli and Bertans in the rotation with Dejounte/Walker/Demarre and the trade off is less 3s? Yeah I'm good with that.

[Pavlov]

How many million need to be put aside for a guy like Singleton who averaged 9 and 4 in Europe? :lolI'm squinting and aside from the improved 3 point shooting at the Euro arc, it's difficult to tell him apart from 22-23 year old reclamation projects we should be able to get for the minimum. Granted I only really saw highlight videos for any of them.

[timvp]

I disagree with the significantly fewer threes assertion especially if DWhite, Derozan, and Dejounte have been asked to work on outside shooting. Add in Lonnie who looks to have a respectable appetite from shooting outside....The math doesn't work out unless you're factoring in one of those guys taking a huge jump, tbh.


But even playing along with your scenario, ...You're telling me the Spurs replace Beli and Bertans in the rotation with Dejounte/Walker/Demarre and the trade off is less 3s? Yeah I'm good with that.Alright, I'll remember this. Should come in handy at some point next season :lol

Not much tbh

[Mugen]

Alright, I'll remember this. Should come in handy at some point next season :lol

1. I predict DWhite to be an above average outside shooter next season tbh. I think Derozan shoots closer to the 3.5 attempts he did his last year in Toronto and I think Dejounte probably shoots around the same amount.

2. Sounds good, homie. If I end up being right, please no disappearing for a season again because "It Hurts" tbh.

[DAF86]

9 and 4 in Europe is 12 and 6 in the NBA, tbh.

Pretty true. Anything over $6-7 million should get the job done unless the Knicks have a backroom agreement in the works.

anything north of the room exception would get it done, no? or maybe less if muh state taxes is actually considered by players

[Dex]

C'mon Mug....your response to the Knicks stealing Morris is to try to throw good money at the Knicks' broken goods? Just to "send a message" to one of the stupidest franchises and worst owners in the league?

The Knicks obviously don't give a shit what the Spurs think. Meanwhile, the last thing the Spurs need is another injured guard.

Nothing stopping the Spurs from reaching out to Bullock's people saying hold out for the Knicks original offer or we''ll give you double the room exception.

If he's not that hurt, he should be able to pass a physical.

I agree that the Knicks are blowing up the injury for their own gain, but where there is smoke, there is usually fire.

Uncanny how the timing of the problem discovered in Bullock's physical matched up with the report of the Knick offer to Morris.

[Dex]

Maybe, maybe not. I wouldn't put it past a trash organization like the Knicks to pull some sketch shit. Your best argument is why then is Bullock seemingly playing along?

He doesn't seem to be playing along. He is set to lose a big payday, whether it be due to legitimate injury or the Knick's making stuff up. That is the most likely reason why we haven't seen any new agreements reached yet.

Either way...the Spurs are gutted at guard. He has no incentive to come here, and the Spurs have no incentive to offer him money...especially just to do so out of spite.

Worst case scenario: Take the loss, and save the MLE for a buyout candidate.

[DAF86]

Pull a non-cuck move for once and sign this guy.

[DAF86]

A lot of Bullock and Belinelli comparissons, but, at least, Bullock has the physical tools to at least compete on the defensive end. He would be a starter, imho.
