Exactly, and if the contract is indeed 25M for 4 years, then that must mean it includes the allowable 8% raises, or they were not over the cap by just a little more than the MLE.
Someone please tell me how a bench player suddenly makes NO the favorites when the Lakers have Bynum coming back.
Bynum is overrated.
champion ship rings for posey vs kevin G
You're happy about our toughest opposition adding a great defender?
Posey isn't coming back from season-ending surgery that could possibly linger.
New Orleans just went from having no one to check Ginobili or Kobe to having arguably the best perimeter defender not named Bruce Bowen to do so.
This shouldn't be a hard concept for you to understand.
Posey vs Garnett. No he did not say that.![]()
8% of the first year salary as a raise each year.
(464K in this case... 5.8 * .8)

The Spurs won 4 out of 5 from the Hornets. I don't see how Posey makes them that much better, unless Timmy gets sick again and the Spurs spot them two games again.
Sure, maybe Posey wasn't one of the Celtic's 'stars' he was probably the 5th most important player, but in the parity of today's NBA, loosing such a player for nothing can be the difference between championship and 2nd round exit. Remember 2005? Horry was what, the 5th most important Spur? But no way SA wins without his contributions.
Let's put it this way. Since Horry was totally useless against the Mavs in 06, say SA had Posey in that series. Do the Spurs win that series? The championship?
I just hope the Spurs find a matchup for West. He was the killer, not CP.
^ Yeah, Rasheed was horrible in 08 the ECF.![]()

About sums it up.
And if you don't think this makes NO that much better, I'm sorry, you're wrong. Posey was that vital piece of veteran leadership and defense that the Hornets lacked against us last season. Not to mention this just gives us even more matchup problems on the defensive of end when we face the Hornets. I'm sure I'm going overboard crowning them champs, but they just got ALOTTTTTT better.
ity .
Worst news of the offseason by far.
.
They were less than one game from the WCF with a scrub like Bonzi ing Wells playing meaningful minutes for them. Remove Bonzi - insert Posey, the Spurs don't make it past them and they probably beat the Lakers and Celtics too. It sucks how much better it makes them![]()
You mean the ECF that they lost, right?
Oh i agree, it's a great signing.
I was just posting what almost everyone viewing this thread was thinking.![]()
Make sure to get Timmy to eat that bad Jambalaya again and be sick for two games.
Well... Rasheed was probably the reason the Pistons lost game six.
