I think and hope that they decide not to opt out.
Tomorrow is the deadline to them to pick or not their player options.
What do you think they will decide and what is your wish ?
I think and hope that they decide not to opt out.
For the price I hope they both exercise their player option. I don't see Vaughn looking for more money. Barry on the other hand may look for a little more than the minimum.
That does make sense. Barry probably knows how much we need him back after the way he helped us out in the Lakers series, and last year after he was re-signed only made $172,177. If he opts out to try and re-sign for a little more, I can understand.
I hope Barry exercises his player option. On the other hand, I hope Vaughn walks.
Let's burn the boat and make Hill our backup point guard. I don't like the idea of Vaughn lingering around every moment Hill makes a small mistake learning on the job. Of course, there's no way in Vaughn would decide not to come back so it's a moot point.
I hope for Barry. Vaughn, I hope not.
Regarding Vaughn, it'd be nice if he opted out just to give the Spurs roster flexibility. He's pretty good as a third point guard ... but if roster spots become an issue, the Ginobili and Barry combination could survive as the third point guard option.
With Hill coming on board and Pop sounding like he really likes him, I'm confident Pop will give Hill as many chances as possible to win that backup job. One good thing about Vaughn staying is he's a good leader and he'd be able to mentor Hill. Parker is still a little young to take on the mentor role so Vaughn is probably best capable of teaching Hill what the Spurs expect from him.
Regarding Barry, I hope he picks up his player option. If he becomes a free agent, he'd likely get a lot of looks from teams around the league -- especially considering how weak this free agent class is. If he comes back, he could fit perfectly into a Steve Kerr role. If he opts out, the Spurs will likely try to re-sign him ... but I could easily see the Spurs getting outbid by another team willing to give him decent money over two years.
Let Vaughn walk when George Hill is the freaking replacement?
It's not like Vaughn was a huge part of last year's playoff run. When scoring and athleticism have become the team's two biggest needs, playing Vaughn is the last option.
Keep Vaughn. I hope Barry opts out.![]()
if Vaughn goes, I am guessing Barry becomes our backup PG. Hill would be 3rd string. I see Hill getting a lot of playing time in Nov-Jan. Then during the 2nd half of the season, I see Pop going with whoever is playing better, Barry or Hill.
I would like this better, cause it would allow us to have 1 extra roster spot available.
I hope Barry returns. But the Garbage Truck Vaughn he will be back because no one else will sign that if he opts out. Someone tell that garbage man to do his job properly and not drop the garbge bag when he's picking up my garbage in the mornings.
The bad thing about losing Vaughn would be not being able to quote Major League 2 anymore.....
"Hey Pop, you're old mother hubbard and only Vaughn's in the cupboard"
i hope barry will return
he shows good things during PO , for vaughn i think it's time to go as he wasn't good enough to compete during Po or season
still he's a good vet pg but with hill and barry or manu who could play the point it's time for him to go i guess
I am hoping Barry returns and Vaughn opts out. Then the Spurs could use Barry as a backup PG as well as Hill to free up other positions on the roster.
Of course, if Hill doesn't show any promise as Pop would have hoped, there might have to be a plan B... like signing someone like Duhon or whoever else is out there on the cheap.
Does Udoka also have option?
Vaughn should opt out and try to sign with the Lakers, Hornets or Suns.....please.
George Hill has the option of taking the Spurs to the NBA Finals.
Winning the 5th Championship would be George Hill's decision.
i'm not sure barry is about the money though, he could have taken more money when he was cut by the sonics but he decided to come back to SA, i think if he opted out he'd stay, he'd probably just want a better deal so he can retire when it's over
i hate vaughn, so i hope he opts out.......... i want barry back, i hate his passive ways, but this year before the injury he was finally showing that he wasn't afraid to shoot and he was knocking them down, and then his performance against the lakers was pretty good, so hopefully he's back
After seeing Pop talk him up tonight, I have a lot more faith in Hill. I thought he was RC's boy (like Derrick Dial, Beno, or Mahinmi).
I have a feeling both players will not opt-out and remain in San Antonio next season. Which is okay with me.
George Hill is pleased to know of your allegiance, but George Hill is a boy to no man.
i wouldnt mind if vauhgn takes the minimum and barry takes the million.
