Yikes....guess they thought the pace of Free Agency was going to continue at a torrid pace and didn't want to lose out on the action.
I like the fact that he agreed to a two-year deal, because it fits the 2010 plan...but it comes at the expense of several other free agents. Based on that dollar figure, I'd say the Spurs will re-sign Thomas and one of the swingmen (Barry or Fin) and be done for the off-season.
His Turnover rate is extremely low-- he averaged 0.8 TO per game, playing just over 20 mpg. Outstanding.

Umm...he was supposed to be the "Ime Udoka" of this off-season.Quote:

Wow. I was just getting ready to say McDonald must be thieving his info off of this site. $7.5 million for two years? That is a revelation, and not a good one. I hope he is wrong about the numbers.
CRAP!!! Damn! guess they were forced to use part of the MLE for him since they proably had few options... all the swingmen worth anything will be looking to get paid.
All I remember is him bricking everything in the playoffs.
Well in that case, fuck.Quote:

According to two league sources, the Spurs have reached an agreement with free-agent guard Roger Mason Jr. that would pay him $7.5 million over two years.
For those who see Mason play I have a question.
Can he create his shot and go to the basket or he only scores on Js?
Okay, I'll be the first to say: Come sign with us Kelenna! Forget the money, we can give you a championship!
So Spurs biggest addition of the offseason will be Roger Mason. :depressed
And now we basically have 2 LLEs.
Well I don't think we are better than last year but who knows. We can go without a fourth scorer if our role players step up consistently, ala the Celtics. I wish we would have offered Posey the full MLE instead. He's proven and much more versatile.
Part of the reason I liked Kelenna was his rebounding numbers.Quote:

I guess other teams thought he was a good value as well, so that drove up his asking price....I think I tallied 5 teams that were interested in him at one point.Quote:

Ignorance is bliss, I guess.Quote:

I think it's more like 2.1-2.2 million of the MLE left.Quote:
