The Shakespearean theater of Romeo Langford

Hes owed 17 mil?! Yea, be a fa

Well it's use it or lose it now on the cap space. And we had 50M going into this year. I'm sure you're right, they will release him but I'm not sure his cap hold would be that much, plus whatever it is would only hold up until he signed his new contract. And it wouldn't be for 17M. Maybe 12M if they see him being a first guy off the bench option.

its not a question of releasing him. he is a free agent. and his cap hold right now is 17mil, at least according to spotrac

and yes, the cap hold would be replaced by the new cap number if they agree to a new deal. i just dont think he's worth bringing back, personally. if they pay langford 12 mil per year, then wemby should instantly demand a trade

I'm probably the outlier here but I love his game. He's one of our better perimeter defense guys and that's desperately needed.

I like him too, I’d be happy if he stayed.

His cap hold is meaningless whether it's 17 or whatever. We have 50+M. And as I stated above and you acknowledge, his new contract would replace that hold once signed. It would be more problematic if the team had less available. And it also depends on the order they sign people.

And, I'd think that'd be the ceiling. He currently gets just under 6M. But Devontae Graham is making 12M the next 2 years. Somewhere less than 12M, ideally closer to 9 or 10, for a guy that when he played, Pop brought him off the bench first or sec ond, isn't a bad deal.

No. It's the cap hold. And it's meaningless because whatever contract he agreed to would take the place of that hold. And there's no way in he'll the Spurs would keep him at that 17 or whatever the exact figure is. I think he's a keeper closer to 10, given his injury history, for sure, especially since he's one of our better defenders and we just set the all time record for inep ude there.

I don’t have a problem with him as a player. I like his game but 9 million for a guy who can’t stay on the court isn’t something I’m that interested in.

the spurs currently have 10 guys under contract, and wembanyama makes 11. meaning other than two-way guys (possibly both barlow and champagnie coming back), we can only add 4 players.

if we trade up from 33, that would make 12. otherwise, the 2nd rounder taken at 33 might be fighting for one of those two-way spots if he's not on the roster.

assuming we dont draft anybody else in the first, i dont know if between Tre Jones, Mamu, KBD, and the free agent market, that Romeo is really one of the guys they want taking up a roster spot. maybe im wrong, i just dont see the appeal. im operating under the assumption that there wont be interest in retaining him, and therefore they're probably just going to end up renouncing him fairly quickly to make room for 1-2 FA signings (or just leaving a roster spot open to take on a contract from another team)

I'd agree that if he can't stay healthy he's not worth it. But man he looked good when he was healthy and got to play 25+min. He's smooth. Makes nice drives to the bucket. Has 3 level scoring potential. I would hate to lose KBD. I think Mamu offers intriguing upside. And I like Tre's game but he'd probably be the odd man out for me, given Graham's contract guarantees for the next 2 years. And we have Blake and will undoubtedly go after a PG with our 2nd pick, whether it's moving back into the 1st or in the 2nd round.

Graham is fully guaranteed for this coming season, but only 2.8 mil in 24-25. he's almost certainly going to be waived at that point, so he's effectively on an expiring deal. im also not letting Wesley's presence dictate PG moves until we know what he is. the PG market is pretty barren this offseason. Tre has limitations for sure, but im not really seeing anybody better out there when factoring in potential costs. id give Tre a deal with the expectation that Graham isnt on the team after this year

[RC_Drunkford]

Langford is gone, I don't understand why people are even discussing this. He's a minimum salary guy or out of the league

[CGD]

Peace out. Wish we could have grabbed an asset for him, but not sad either.
