Harrington will only become a FA if he opts out of the $10M he is guaranteed next year. Probably not going to happen.

Great. Thanks for the info, I missed that detail.

After the trade for Jefferson, aren't we out of the FA market for any major player because of salary cap problems?
I know Pop and the FO are supposed to have the green light from Holt, but get serious: There has to be a maximum that he is willing to pay on the luxury tax.

what are the plans now for the spurs FO .?.

Re: what are the plans now for the spurs FO .?.
Was there ever a release from the Spurs saying Sheed was option number 1?
No.

Re: what are the plans now for the spurs FO .?.
i had no clue as to the FO even going after jefferson so there is no way i can guess what they are up to now. apparently, they were not all that gung ho about rasheed as well.

probably giving Tiago Splitter a few last phonecalls

Re: what are the plans now for the spurs FO .?.
I think Pop will play the role of generic German soldier this week, marching down the Champ-Elysees without as much as a word pf protest from the French standing by. RC will probably drink a few mojitos on South Beach, while both play the role of Nero watching the San Antonio Spursan Basketball Empire burn. Big Baby has been cast in the role of Caligula, with sources citing "a familiarity with his best known work."

yep. who knew they would make that Jefferson deal? and i have a feeling Pop and Duncan weren't overly keen on dealing with a loose cannon like Sheed.

yeah, its not typical for the Spurs to fly in a player they are interested in, while Pop isnt even in the country...especially not, while Boston is going to his place and so on...I guess, they never really wanted him!
maybe we will go for Mcdyess, Zaza...maybe even for someone like Big Baby...could imagine them doing something in the Splitter hunt...but the best bet should be, that they are not doing to much (Haislip, Blair, Bonner, Duncan, Ian is ok starting the season), while waiting for the trade deadline...there will be a team willing to trade a god big for sal cap in '10!

Cia Pop.
He's won 4 titles, you know.

Re: what are the plans now for the spurs FO .?.
The obvious would be a stopover in Spain for Pop, to talk with a certain former draft pick center about coming over this year...

I wouldn't doubt if Pop is already over there....
but at the same time, I highly doubt Pop is over there :lol

Re: what are the plans now for the spurs FO .?.
I don't know the details but I doubt that the Spurs were going to give Sheed 3 years. Maybe 2? Like Corey Magettie he followed the money and job security.

According to a Ric Bucher twitter, the Spurs are one of the contenders for Channing Frye.

According to Hoopsworld it looks like the Spurs are after Big Baby with the full mid-level exception..... If thats the case and they happen to bring in Splitter on a rookie contract, would that make Bonner expendable since that would give the Spurs seven big men..... I would say package Finley and Bonner for a solid wing that can contribute coming off the bench.....

Re: what are the plans now for the spurs FO .?.
I think the spurs are waiting for the MLE, and salray cap numbers to come out so we can offer just more then the pistons can, then take the remainder parts of the MLE and offer that to Big baby.

If we're going to put all of our faith in 2 rookies and big baby to play alongside Tim then we're fucked. Get Dice or some other decent FA big or package Expirings for a decent big.

Re: what are the plans now for the spurs FO .?.
I think the Spurs FO has something up their sleeves but I would not say were screwed with Splitter, Blair, Haislip, and Big Baby playing alongside Duncan.....
Blair is coming in with a chip on his shoulder and is going to try to prove that he should have been a lottery pick as projected.... Mahimni is going to flat out prove he belongs in the NBA and could be a beast as well..... Splitter is NBA ready and Big Baby can play and will contribute to this team.....
I think the Spurs will be deep, more athletic, and younger and fresher then what we have seen in years past...... I personally am excited and cant wait until this lineup comes together and the chemistry gels...... The matter is staying healthy......
