Every Spur has good value compared to what they get paid. The only salary that I may question is Barry's and his is about to be off the books.
No one really.
Fans and possibly Holt..
They get it for cheap..

Obviously Finley isn't hurting for money but I don't understand why people keep thinking he's making $24 ($21 from Cuban, $3 million from the Spurs) million this year.
Tim Duncan.
Cutting Finley was absolutely the right thing to do because of the luxury tax amnesty. It was ridiculous to give him that contract in the first place, but at the time, we were coming off our first playoff appearance in 11 years, Finley was still our best player, and he was getting FA interest from none other than San Antonio. I doubt the Spurs would've given him that contract though.

Man, at least one-third of NBA players are stealing money.
true jamstone i'm gonna add eric snow to my list even though he's not a spur
Francisco Elson....
I know he only makes $3M, but this guy is TERRIBLE. Keep in mind that the Spurs could have two players next year (Mahinmi & Splitter) that collectively make less money than Elson does this year and, I would argue, are individually better than Elson.

Every useless big man given a contract between 2004-2007. Erik Dampier stole Steve Nash's money in Big D and basically cost them a title due to that waste of height and head band. No one on the Spurs is stealing though.
Nobody said Kwame was better or worse for the dollar than Elson.Quote:

Mahinmi makes less than a million....so he's a better value as a skinny F/C.Quote:

Elson is worth the vet min and even at that price I'd let him walk if I were the Spurs.
You're getting away from the simple point of this thread....Quote:

The point was to say that Elson is not a $3M NBA-calibur Center. That's my opinion, and I don't care if you or anyone else share it.
Bottom Line: Spurs gave Elson $6M and he hasn't done enough in my opinion to earn the money he's been given.

I could've gone with Parker, Ginobili, Bowen, or even Udoka....
