Are we to the point where it is time to kick R.C.'s ass to the curb?
Now that I would believe.
Are we to the point where it is time to kick R.C.'s ass to the curb?
HOW LONG DO WE HOLD THE RIGHTS TO SPLITTER ?????
I am under the impression that as a first rounder we only hold them until the draft night 2008.
Is this correct ???
Also, I don't care what promises he made, until the contract is signed it's meaningless. Just ask Cleveland about Carlos Boozer......
We ed up big time and now not only do we lose a shot at the le this season but seriously hamper our abilities to win in the future.

Chris Webber said Monday that he will not be accepting a lucrative offer to finish his career in Greece and revealed that the Detroit Pistons are the only team he can see himself playing for this season.

Webber also told ESPN.com in a phone interview that he's still "weighing all my options," which include the possibility of retirement at age 34 if he doesn't return to the Pistons.
Yet it's believed that Detroit remains intent on re-signing Webber, provided it can shed a salary or two by trading away Flip Murray and/or Nazr Mohammed.
ESPN.com's Chris Sheridan reported Friday that Webber had received a two-year offer from perennial Greek power Olympiacos worth between $10 million and $12 million tax-free. Webber declined to discuss specific amounts he's been presented with but insists that he's not paying very close attention anyway.
Who is liar now? And remember they get dollar confuse with Euro.
Nah, they have his rights until he stops playing professional basketball for a year.
As long as he keeps playing pro ball, the Spurs hold his rights indefinitely.
Because Splitter changed his mind and reneged on a deal?
How is that his fault?
2 years and $10 mil? ROFL. And he still has to pay tax on that .ESPN.com's Chris Sheridan reported Friday that Webber had received a two-year offer from perennial Greek power Olympiacos worth between $10 million and $12 million tax-free.

Where is this supposed huge contract for AK47?
Well, the only teams that can finish ahead of us are two teams that were on the receiving end of the most lopsided trades in NBA history and the Pistons.
Who are we going to hire? Zeke?
Thats good to know.
Don't know if it matters though. It seems as if he is priced out of fitting in the Spurs organization
Well, it's time for RC to earn his check and live up to his rep, starting this summer.
Until he realizes that the best he will ever be able to do outside of the NBA is 2 years and $10 mil.
Do you not read? AFTER TAXES. This is salary amount AFTER he would pay taxes. And they get Euros confuse with dollars.
You name me NBA team will pay Webber 10-12 million euros salary AFTER taxes.
In case you not able read how many times it have be explain teams pay taxes not players. This is NET salary. Why are you so stupid?
In NBA it say Duncan make $20 million he does not he have to pay taxes.
Salary for Webber means he NOT pay taxes. When his tax comes for US or Greece it is paid and check for full amount would come from Olympiacos. You need grow brain.
Andre Kirilenko

Clearly, no European club is not willing to pay such money player (13.7 million dollars a year), no matter how good it may be. But Kirilenko belongs to the category of people for whom the first place - not money, and the idea. He wants to leave because of "Yuty failed to increase wages, and to find a team, which could progress. If Kirilenko sees a purpose and desire to light up with a new club, it is confident financial compromise will be found ".
He is a US citizen. He will have to pay tax on that. And then he will have to pay tax on the amount that the Olympics paid him to pay his tax.
T PARK your a lawyer I believe and you know damn well that until the ink is on the contract nothing counts. And even then its not for much with some people.
Handshakes and "my word is stronger than oak..." have stopped counting for anything since Ike walked out of the White House.
We just got punked by the Euro Ashton Kutcher .......
Sadly, Kirilenko was not willing to agree to a financial "compromise".
Spurs should be able to sue the out of Tau, this is the second time this has happened. Why do people take Euroleague contracts? It may be more money, but the glory is nothing like the NBA. Period.
Agreed, I just don't know whom to replace him with if it came to that.
KILL BILL....so u dont think vspan will come back to the nba.
The glory may soon be there especially if all their clubs keep getting better and better. If their economy keeps on blowing ours away and they can pay more money. The Euroleague Championship may soon be on par with the NBA.
How dare you call me a lawyer....
lol does the shoe fit?
