Room exception only comes into play if a team is under the tax. Plus it's for only two years. Using part of the MLE on a three-year deal near the min ala Metu is the best option
Suppose you mean the bi-annual exception as the room exception is for teams using cap space and Spurs have operated above the cap. I suppose it won’t matter which exception they use to sign him as it’ll likely be a min deal but the years would matter, unless they plan to use the whole MLE at some point but this seems unlikely.
Maybe I've forgotten something, but do we need to use an exception at all to sign Jones? IIRC you can always sign a player to a vet minimum contract (without needing an exception, even if over cap). Presumably that's all Jones is going to get anyways...
If they want to sign him for 3+ years then they'll have to use the MLE.
Very good news
Not a bad signing at that price.
BTW - I checked that weather report. Not a single cold day in the forecast.
At the guy who once proclaimed DeRozan's "range started at 15" and is now spouting small sample size counting stats without context pretending I'm stuck in the past because I said something that's true.
Skillsets/body types of C's have changed (which is why plenty of converted or would have in the past been PF's now play it), but the need for 3 hasn't. Where bigs have lost jobs is more so at PF, which has mostly become a big wing position.
I actually don't think it does.
Solid signing.
Much better then Poodle.
11/2019: "Always Keep A Shooter Witchu!!"
^ yup already building chemistry for that bench unit.
Already preparing to be traded together...
Hilarious caption. “Grinding together”.
Regardless. Good to see them doing their job.
I don't know why people hate Eubanks, seems like a good dude and actually tries to get better. If he can hit that 3 point shot more frequently they I don't see why he can't have a good long career as a bench big.
I think you are misreading. I don't see general hating of Eubanks. Instead I see temporary guilt by association of Drew's grinding partner.
Probably need to retire this old thread on Eubanks and start one that is ccurrent. If it stays current then isn't it eating up bandwitdth for our sponsoring owner (whoever that is)
Oh my, as if Luka didn’t already have a lot to worry about. And now Eewbanks also?
I'm a big fan of Eubanks. He's a tough, badass player who works hard. He hit a three last year that showed great form and touch and it seemed like he could definitely add that to his game. I don't want to give up on him, but the influx of bigs seems like the team might look the other way.
I'm also a fan. I'm sure he knows he's an end of the bench type guy, but he gives it his all when his number is called and he tries to improve his overall game. Can't ask for more than that. Wish more players had his at ude. He's worked his way to be small cog in the spurs machine and I would hate to see him cut or even traded.
I like Eubanks. His first step is quicker than D White btw
Yeah I like him to he is a solid bench player and a great person in the locker room I think everyone likes him - He has a great work ethic and is definitely putting in the time also he is a bruiser/enforcer which we really need.
Eubanks won’t shoot a single 3 in a p&pop action with Forbes if he passes the ball that way. There are clips of Forbes practicing dribbling but what creation demands is not only ability to go through the defense but the passing quality to actually helping your teammates to score.
We are going to miss DeRozan so much
Damn it's going to be a long season...
Whites a better and more willing passer than DeRozan ever was, and he doesn’t dribble into traffic without a plan like DD often did.
