Exactly. I don't think many people here have been spurs fans for too long who don't know this

He's nowhere near productive as his contract pays him. Lose the spare tire in the middle and quit trying to flail into the key and draw the foul. The refs aren't calling that anymore.
Re: Paul Garcia explains Spurs Cap Situation
Damn, that Spurs roster is thin...

As long as they don't sign Bonner! I'd rather have Boris than worthless Bonner! :bang

And prior to that, for his entire career, his contract paid him no where near what his production was. It all balances out. Actually I would be willing to guess that even with this contract, he has not earned as much as he was worth for his NBA career.
And it is for ONE year. There is no one they can bring in this year that will give them anything more than what Manu can give them.

I don't think it's about $$ for TD - his knees are done, unfortunately.

or Curry is paid as a role player
Re: Paul Garcia explains Spurs Cap Situation
So what's the team's rotation gonna look like?
Parker, Green, Leonard, Aldridge, Gasol
Mills, Manu, Bertans, Anderson, Deadmon?
Kind of weak, tbh. We need two more rotation players, imho. A wing, and a Center.

No kidding, they might only win 58 games and advance to the WCF.
That's weak ...

^ Curry is just being paid 12M. Chandler Parsons is being paid more. Evan Fournier is being paid more. Its just a perfect circumstances for GSW.
Re: Paul Garcia explains Spurs Cap Situation
The warriors got really lucky with the cap situation. Curry had all the foot/ankle injuries early in his career and he looked like he wasn't going to hold up to the physicality of the NBA. B/c of the foot/ankle issues Curry and the dubs agreed to a contract that was a "prove it" deal.
The gamble paid off. If Curry was a max player they don't have the money to go get KD, but now they do. It's something the NBA has never seen and likely never will again. It was just the perfect storm for them.
The good news for the Spurs is that Kawhi, LMA, Tony, and Green are all on great contracts now and they will have some flexibility going forward. I don't know that they can compete this year, but if things develop properly and they do well in FA next offseason they could be right back in the mix a year from now.
