I don't know the details of his contract next year, but perhaps some team would pick up his last season in a trade to get an expiring deal. It would be an unceremonious end to TP's career in SA, but heck, Sean got traded, Ice spent his last year in a Bulls uniform, Bruce was let go when he thought he could still play. Even Matt Bonner didn't get the parade he deserved after all his amazing contributions. Tony will still be revered here once he hangs up his cleats for the last time...that won't change even if he's donned the Philadelphia red, white and blue for his final rodeo.
Tony could give one final assist to Leonard and Co.

let me guess, you must be mid's alt.
good point. with tony's contract expiring as much as he is, that should make him more appealing to other teams.Quote:

yeah, no... gilbert arenas got moved, joe johnson got moved. fuck off with that noise. this is on the FO.
Lol. You don't summon The Phoenix to battle some giant spiders. No...you wait until you face the dragon in the critical moments.
Well, you're the expert Gambit. Just explain one thing to me and please, use layman's terms, none of this technical BS I won't be able to understand. Why would a team with $15M cap space want to trade for Tony Parker just so they can buy him out?Quote:

Unless the Spurs have a player on their radar in the offseason that doesn't include trading away Tony so they can max out Paddy, there is no incentive to salary dump Parker. Otherwise, I cannot envision a scenario in which the Spurs wouldn't have to take on another contract, possibly of greater length that is equal to or greater than Parker's.
Even if some team wanted to do a Spurs a solid by accepting a trade for the Spur's weakest link so they could clear cap space (without incentives-very, very unlikely), Tony Parker would have to agree to the buyout and suppose he wants to get paid the $15M he's owed? It's not happening.

Patty can't play all 48 minutes, and Manu can't give +/- 25 minutes every game. Who next? Simmons? Forbes?! Rusty, raw Dijon returning from injury, himself?Quote:
