Seems like a lot of people are in agreement of using the mid-level on a certain kind of player.
This poll is to see who the site is leaning more towards.
How about another midget, or old, busted up vet?
i'd like more youger prospects that could be in line with our young guys...also if they are risky...but a mid level or a split mid level for 3/4 years on some people with good potential could be worth the risk.
I see more, for example, Stanley Johnson/Hezonja as small forwards and Bender/Cauley Stein as bigs...aka talented guys (all top ten draft picks) with problems on their development...
I think its time for vets. Positive locker room guys. Fans undervalue those since it doesn't show up on any stat sheets. We have too many young players now. You arent going to get any real good prospects anyway with the mle.
Key things for a vet:
1: championship experience is valuable
2. Not old as dirt
3. Chemistry guy
4. Young players could look up to them
How i would rank the free agents in tiers. I really dont know how any of these guys are healthwise. So going by stats and how i remember they play
Tier 1
Marcus Morris (plays with heart, can come in and provide toughness)
Taj Gibson (effective post player)
Nikola Mirotic (3 pt shooter, with all the ball handlers we have we need players to provide spacing)
Tier 2
DeMar Carroll
Aminu
Tier 3
Chandler
Bullock
Ariza
Don’t forget mulitinov. Not for the full mle but a part of it.
Jamychal Green should be added to the poll.
I wonder if theres any chance mulitnov ever comes
I was going to but it only let me put 10 choices.
Murray Mills.
White Bryn. Marco
DDR Walker. Rookie 2
LMA. Gay. Rookie 1
Jakob. Bert. Metu
Damn, I can see a scenario where the spurs do nothing, and roll with this roster. Ugh.
Kind of grabs you by the po-po, doesn't it?
Marcus Morris cause he checks all boxes. The player you need should be a:
- veteran, but not too old that he's on the decline (under 32)
- good defender
- good 3-point shooter
- combo forward who can play 3 and 4
- do the dirty work
- bring some toughness to the team
I expect him to cost slightly more than the MLE like 10-13 million
I think before the Spurs use the mid level exception, the roster has to balance itself. Belineli is the most likely to go because he has some trade value throughout the league. Likely afterthe big dominoes fall in free agency. Then other teams will look to fill needs that they missed out on.
If roster restrictions were not a issue I would love to see the Spurs bring Mulitonov over, and add Stanley Johnson for his length on defense alone makes him valuable.
I think Jamychal Green is within the realm of something that can happen.
Thaddeus Young or JaMychal Green
You also can't have all young guys because if they all are hitting their prime at the same time you can't afford to keep them. You need a mixture.
Aminu is not a realistic MLE target. PATFO are not signing a Morris brother. There are two you can remove.
RHJ?
That would be my choice.
Aminu is the better player on this list (which makes it unable to acquire it)
Richard Hoe Jefferson is retired, tbh.
horrible shooter but he can play 3/4
Rhondae Hollis Jefferson
