Hopefully its multiple years
Sorry it says near minimum
The article just says he's "willing to get a salary near the minimum"...so I don't think him taking the minimum is a sure thing at this point.
Gasol/Boban/Milutinov
Aldridge/Bertans
Leonard/Anderson
Green/Ginobili/Simmons
Parker/Mills/Murray
I like it :tu
Would 'love' it if RC got a sucker to give us a first for Diaw and Fathead
At least two years, I agreeQuote:

Not sure how much will be left when the Spurs dump Diaw and waive Duncan, then include Pau's 15M. 5-6M, no? ChinookQuote:

Yes, that is accurate, though it's closer to $7 Million.Quote:

His three point shooting % is out of this world. Just hope his legs hold up.
Bertans >>>>> Bonner and he can run with the small ball.
Not sure on that but he could have fit in to an exception previously. Him and Manu are still in question $ wise.Quote:

Welcome Bertans!!! Happy to see you in Spurs!
I hope to see him in SL!
:flag:
KD stopper ��

Dunno, this dudes got no D, 9.5 fingers & no ACLs!
That George Hill trade is the gift that keeps on giving.
And he is 6'10... hoping he works out.
I wouldn't be surprised if they can get a late 1st from the Craptors for Boris.Quote:

good signing. i am following him for 4-5 years.
Lots of fans on Twitter want him on their team, and RC is calling 'teams', emphasis on the s on teams. He'll land us a first if Belinelli can :lolQuote:

With his history, lotto team aren't going to give up a 1st rd pick for him. Toronto is the perfect situation for him where he can play 20-25 minutes on a pretender & live in a cosmopolitan city. Craptors own the Cripples 2017 1st rd pick so they can swap him for it.Quote:

This is our KD baby!
Can he play defense?Quote:

This guy could match up with klay n kd
There has to be another vet signing somehow. Pop gonna retire early with all these rookies (left out LJC btw and not sure Milutinov is coming over this year)Quote:

It would be hilarious if Lorbek makes the team and when we play up in Indiana to have Kawhi, Lorbek and Bertans on the floor at the same time and George Hill is no longer on the Pacers. I would love for the camera to pan to Larry Bird at that point.
So based on the two bolded parts above, you must like these Seinfeld scenes:Quote:

Odessa is the only choice imhoQuote:

Riga, Latvia (where I lived for the previous 2.5 years) is in the same time zone as all Ukrainian cities, so no worries. :lol No protests from me.Quote:

Quick release. This will help when Parker passes him the ball with 2 seconds on the shot clock.Quote:

Odessa, Ukraine on the Black Sea. Very beautifulQuote:

Second thought, spurs continue to maneuver the best they can without Duncan's decision. Need contact information to know a little more about what they're doing. Is this the room exception?
That'd be a steep price to pay and a disappointment. They should have the cap space to give him a $4M/2 deal with pure cap space, even accounting for everything else.Quote:

Yes, and that's what I've been assuming for a long time. The room exception is quite a bit bigger than that, though. The reason why it would be a disappointment is because it could break up what is actually a pretty good asset, when they'd have the cap room is Duncan just made his damned decision. Who the hell needs until 7/10 to make up their minds? That's just so random.Quote:

Question now is whether Duncan returns, or if the Spurs can retain Boban. Frankly, one or the other needs to happen, or we will have a big hole to fill.
