Lebron comes to mind too.... Used that superteam for 2 rings... Durant can do the same

Having KD will only hinder Kawhi growth.

This is just a base opinion. First kawhi is already MVP level. You mean specifically it will prevent Leonard from being molded into a point forward by limiting his touches. There's no reason he can't learn to dribble drive in the off season and sometimes you just live with that when it means accommodating teammates. Our offense would be stupid efficient with three all star caliber starters.

Re: Marc Stein: Spurs want in on Durant hunt, too

Getting Durant would be surreal and like a poster mentioned up above, the fact that it took 17 years for the Spurs to get free agent appeal is a laugh. Do you want to go to the team with the best winning percentage over a two decade span. Check. Do you want to be paired with a pair of all star players in Aldridge and Kawhi. As well as a cast of relentless vets with a will to win. Check. But, hey I'm glad to go into the offseason with a 6th championship over adding KD35.

the all-world line-up, Conan the Barbarian variation:

Boban at center, LaMarcus and Durant at forwards, Kawhi and Anderson at guards.......................omg

Make sure to tell him that. I'm sure he'd appreciate hearing your point of view.

The spurs pretty much doing a heat check after finally landing a free agent.

I think no top tier free agent will come this year. But if we go after one we most likely will chase LeBron, his entourage seems the most anti spurs of all, but in truth coming here would also benefit him greatly if he wants to push away that entourage. Also his game is the most fit for our team.

His max this summer will be 30% of the cap, which is projected to be around $90M, so $27M starting. That $7M difference could allow the Spurs to keep a low-salary player or two like Mills or Anderson. But one of Green or Parker would still have to go, and Diaw would still likely be gone too.

I almost wonder if Durant might sign a 3-year deal with a player option on year 3 (I think that's possible) and sign with a different team this summer. The idea would be for his new team to have full Bird rights after 3 years and sign a full 5-year 35% max in 2019. Or opt out in 2018 and go to another team with max cap room.

"That's probably one of the first times I've heard that one," Durant told us in February when our ESPN Radio team had the chance to sit down with him at All-Star Weekend in Toronto and ask about a short-term deal with the Thunder.

Who says that? Durant sucks at being coy.

"I haven't thought about contracts or free agency or none of that stuff at all really. ... I haven't thought about that one. I guess I have to."

Really sucks.

That's some funny shit right there.

Have you not noticed that Cleveland is gonna be in the finals this year again and has a good shot at winning it all? That teams not just Lebron. Why would he want to leave?
