Re: Ludden: Tim Duncan re-signs (3 years, $34M), Patty Mills re-signs, De Colo signs
So Diaw signs on for 2 more years, which if I have this right would follow the end of Parker's contract. I'm very curious if Tim wants to play 2 more years and the third year is an expiring they can potentially use at that point if they plan on some rebuilding?

If the Spurs are going to amnesty Bonner, it has to be done by tomorrow, correct?

Working to confirm Y! report Spurs have reached deal w/ Tim Duncan, though considering the source you can take it to the bank.

Lots of great news today! Duncan get's to retire a spur (not that this was ever in doubt) and we get to watch him for another 3 years.

Why would another team trade an athletic big for the Spurs worst players.

The amnesty clause can be used for the first seven days following the moratorium period, so the 17th is the last possible day.

Gotta think a trade of Neal or Joseph is on the horizon (with Neal being more likely). Very crowded backcourt.
I agree. I could see both Neal and Joseph on the block. While it's hard to imagine the Spurs flipping Cory Joe so quickly, they seem to be well stacked at the PG with Parker/Mills/Joseph firmly set as PG's only, and Neal/DeColo/Denmon as possible emergency PG's or even full on converts.
Somethings gotta live.

At the guard spots, the Spurs have:
Parker
Ginobili
Green
Neal
Mills
De Colo
Joseph
Denmon
I think Joseph and Denmon are going to battle for one spot on the roster. If Joseph sucks in summer league, I wouldn't be surprised if the Spurs ate his final year and just released him. However, if Joseph shows some potential, the Spurs will probably beg Denmon to go to Europe.
As for the rest, Neal really does look like the odd man out. Mills as the backup point guard and De Colo as the fifth guard makes sense. Neal, Mills and De Colo battling for the same minutes doesn't make sense.

Thanks :toast
Spurs should definitely take all the time they have available to see if they can't ship of the T-Rex in some sort of trade.
It won't work, of course, and if it doesn't then they should just amnesty him. But it would be silly to not even try.

Nah, Nash will be more of a lateral move imo. The Lakers' inability to slow opposing PGs will still be readily apparent.

Here's something to chew on. With De Colo and Mills signing, are the Spurs shopping Parker??? We know he has he most value of our pieces, is it possible the front office is upset with his club incident? Just a thought.

That's why I ended the post with the conditional "if possible" statement. If Steve Novak can get 15 mil from the Knicks, then that tells us there are still plenty of sucker GMs out there - despite the absence of Isiah Thomas.
While the odds aren't very good of such a trade happening, one never knows.

If the Spurs were planning on trading Parker, then what would've been the point of resigning Duncan? Trading Parker signals "blow up" time.

Welcome back TD. You are the Spurs and I'm honored to get to watch you for three more seasons.
