Exactly, lolQuote:

Great news.
Finalizing deals w/Tiago and Manu fairly quickly leads me to believe that the Spurs have other moves in mind and wanted to wrap up the loose ends to know exactly what they're working with.
Hope that's the case and their next big move isn't announcing the return of Matty and Neal tbh. :lol
My only slight surprise is that Tiago got done first (because Manu's contract was the one I felt as more critical to making other moves). But they both got wrapped up with plenty of time to target FA's which is great if they choose to take that route.
When a FA leaves the country during FA, it's a pretty good sign that they know things are handled :lol
Why would rumors circulate around the Spurs' office?Quote:

Matty was never gone in the first place, probably sitting on Pop's laps as we speak.Quote:

If Splitter's contract starts above his cap hold, the Spurs can just sign him last. The only way the Spurs would sign Splitter first is if the first year is under his cap hold, and it can't get that low on a 4/36 deal.Quote:

Ginobili showed he can still compete at a high level. Don't know why some people are mad that one of the best Spurs to don the jersey is going to retire here tbh. And if the Spurs are able to add another ball-handler, then that makes Ginobili all the more effective.
OK, should be a good move if Manu calls something less 5/year. I can seen enough space to bring AK here
Now we wait for the damage, I have a feeling this is gonna be bad http://i.imgur.com/nzg7vEU.gifQuote:

Good to see Manu back. Waiting on the contract details.
Don, did you think to ask how much the contract was going to pay him?Quote:

LMAO at people believing some GNSF's claim of 2/20. Said GNSF will soon be pinked.
There's no way he's getting 10mil/year unless RC fell off the wagon again tbh.
