NBA: Jeremy Lin Suddenly Looks Like A Fit For Spurs
by 2Paragraphs in Sports | May 13, 2016
The San Antonio Spurs played this season like they wouldn't need new parts for a while yet. Bolstered by the offseason acquisitions of David Westand LaMarcus Aldridge, the Spurs went 67-15 and started the playoffs with a 4-0 Grizzlies sweep. But the Spurs saw their weaknesses exposed in the second round by a young, lightning fast, exceptionally strong OKC Thunder. For the first time in memory, San Antonio struggled to find open players and even to get off shots. Not only did the Spurs repeatedly fail to recover on defense fast enough to match the Thunder's sprint-outs (even after made baskets), but on offense the selfless San Antonio machineregistered just 19 assists -- after dishing 39 in Game 1. Point guard Tony Parker (6 points) hadn't been nullified this way since LeBron James stifled him in the 2014 NBA Finals.
The Spurs crushed the Thunder 124-92 to open the series, but things changed fast. Just as they will likely change fast this summer for San Antonio. The Spurs sorely lacked youth, strength, quickness and penetration as the series wore on. They were short players who can defend full-court and create shots on their own when the system gets clogged by ferocious defense like OKC's. Charlotte guard Jeremy Lin brings all those ingredients to a roster. Lin, who will explore the NBA market (again) this summer, used this past season in Charlotte to prove he can defend at a top level (after being wrongly maligned for not having that ability) and to remind everyone that he can create his own shot and consistently get to the line with penetration. San Antonio did neither against the Thunder, shooting just 16 free throws as a team in Game 4. Lin has been looking to play for a contender. He also owns, as Spurs culture demands, a reputation for team-first play. Last week the Spurs didn't look like they needed a lot of help. Today, Jeremy Lin looks like a good fit.

I mentioned this midseason this year. He's a realistic option. Can really attack the rim.

Jeremy has a habit of torching the Spurs when he gets minutes. Last time was March 11th, when he poured in 29 points.

Sounds good, but what the Spurs really need is an athletic big man. That should be the number one priority this off season.

Would be awesome. Is he a FA again? The guy can play and has proven to be a solid rotation player. People are just still (stupidly) upset over all the attention he got in NY or don't take him seriously simply because he eats wontons for breakfast tbh.

Re: NBA: Jeremy Lin Suddenly Looks Like A Fit For Spurs
I think he's mentally weak and has not shown a decent postseason so far in the few times he's been there. As much as we need a good rotation regular season player, I would love to have a valid playoff performer (ala Jax) on the team. Can we bring back Brent Barry? Lol.

Re: NBA: Jeremy Lin Suddenly Looks Like A Fit For Spurs
He'd be a dynamic, multi-faceted option off the bench, but I wouldn't trust him as a starter. And he'd be expensive off the bench.

Exactly. Parker ain't going nowhere. He is either the starting PG or the 6th man ball-handler. As long as that is the case, Lin does not fit the Spurs.

Well, I would love Lin off the bench, but it would be too expensive.

I don't care for his defense... however, Spurs are known for picking up players who have torched them.

Re: NBA: Jeremy Lin Suddenly Looks Like A Fit For Spurs
The fact that we consider Lin as an Option shows us how fucked up we are with Tony starting.
That contract will come down as one of the worst contracts of the Spurs Big 3 era.

For short-sighted people and ungrateful "fans", yes. For the rest of us, we realize that contract was retroactively rewarding Tony for his underpaid contributions to FOUR championships.

Tony was never THAT underpaid. Just compare his earnings to Manu and TIM in similar years and divide it for either winshares or per or what you want.
For example:
Tim Duncan: Total career earnings 235 millions, years, 19, average salary 12.37 millions, career win shares per 48 .2019 (13 all time) Total Win Shares 206.4. (6th all time) Win Cost (total earnings divided by total wins) 1,14 millions.
Manu Ginobili: Total career earnings 108.5 millions, years, 14, average salary 7.75 millions, career win shares per 48 .2002 (21 all time) Total Win Shares 101.2. (71 all time) Win Cost 1,07 millions.
Tony Parker (AS OF NOW): Total career earnings 130.9 millions, years, 15, average salary 8.72 millions, career win shares per 48 .1469 (118 all time) Total Win Shares 105.29. (67 all time) Win Cost 1,27 millions.
So as of now Tony has been the best paid of the 3 by production, without considering the next 2 years, now, heres what will look like assuming tony doesnt decline one bit, givig him 5 more win shares (average for his last 2 years) per year.
Tony Would be payed this way.
Total career earnings 161 millions, years, 16, average salary 10.06 millions, career win shares per 48 -cannot be calculated- Total Win Shares 110.29 Win Cost 1,45 millions.
So, finally, my point is, he was not UNDERPAID, compared to neither Manu or Tim and what they brought, as of now, neither overpaid. IF HIS CONTRACT EXPIRED NOW. These two years will put him with an average salary 30% more expensive than Manu, and also his "wins" will be the most expensive of the 3 (evendoe they already are, but by a normal margin.
By the analisys you can either agree that he was well paid, or a bit overpaid, depending on where you put him compared to Tim and compared to Manu, but what cannot be said, is that he was UNDERpaid, compared to the two.

Jimmer's not even good to have on the bench since he does his own thing when he's got the ball in his hands.
Might as well have Danny Green drive the ball over and over.

what's the point of comparing tony to the two most under-paid stars of modern basketball?... compare him over his career to the rest of the league's top play-makers and he's underpaid by a country mile

Thanks for researching, but determining if a player is overpaid/underpaid should be based on market value for his position, not on a team's comparative win shares. Does any team determine salaries this way?

Not the point of my post, the point was that many here think that Tony´s contract was on the line of what Tim and Manu were also given and i am just pointing that this is not the case.
Tim and Manu DID give up a lot of money for the team,with this contract that is not true for Tony anymore, he´ll be over Manu and Tim in terms of production/importance for the team.
Of course i am not saying Tony has been overpaid because it´s not the case, just that the team never gave that "compensation contract" to Duncan not Ginobili, and they are not complaining.
So much for the "sacrifice" argument.
