So how many hours is left exactly ?
27 hours 16 minutes 21 seconds
thanks
I appreciate really
Because A) the Kings wouldn't and B) if we are going to take on a long term salary burden, we might do quite a bit better with Philly. Iguolda + Dalembert looks doable at the current rate for expirings...Why Not?
Good post.If Spurs trade for Salmons and if Salmons doesn't opt out this summer, Spurs will spend $60M on 7 players (Parker, Hill, Salmons, Jefferson, Blair, McDyess and Duncan). If Spurs re-sign Ginobili and Thomas, spend a part of their MLE for Splitter and fill the roster with cheap contract (first round picks and min players), they could end up at $78M-$80M. With a luxury tax at $66M, it makes a lot of money to spend for the owners.
IMO, Spurs should do it:
- The situation could settle it self with Salmons not picking his option, Thomas not being worth being re-signed or SplitterSpurs again.
- If Spurs had to spend a lot of money next summer, it will mean that Thomas and Ginobili have been great, which means that Spurs were true contenders and in that case, spending money should be less difficult to swallow.
- It's only an one year investment.
It's not my money, but Spurs ownership should make a last relative small financial effort to give Duncan a legit shot at #5.
Baskeball-wise, the Thomas/Salmons trade makes sense. Monetarily is where it's sketchy. If Salmons picks up his option and Thomas is worth re-signing, it almost forces the Spurs' hand in letting go of Ginobili.
It'd be a lot easier to figure out if the Spurs were legit championship contenders. This limbo state confuses everything.
I'll be glad once this trade deadline passes because it's almost impossible to totally justify any move ... or even doing nothing
I'm with this guy.
At the same time they can find relief in trading Jefferson's huge expiring contract.If Spurs trade for Salmons and if Salmons doesn't opt out this summer, Spurs will spend $60M on 7 players (Parker, Hill, Salmons, Jefferson, Blair, McDyess and Duncan).

Posted in another thread, and I know it's not germane to THIS deadline, but I saw this note from ESPN blog...
If the Cavs decide to pull the trigger on the Amare Stoudemire deal instead, look for the Wizards to explore ways of trading Jamison during the summer.
It made me think that the Spurs could flip RJ for Jamison before the start of next season...if he hasn't been dealt already.
That way the Spurs could get some long-term value out of the RJ contract and they wouldn't be hamstrung to keep Thomas (if Spurs traded for him) and overpay if a team decided to bid high.
I know there's absolutely zero new news here, but I figured I'd post it, since it's the newest update we've had (about 9:50 am CST, Wednesday)

Shopping Jefferson (no interest), McDyess (a little interest), Mason (lots of interest) RT @spursincharge What's the latest with the Spurs?
I'd be really surprised if Mason doesn't get shipped out.
Hopefully for players and not cap space!
Im honestly suprised to not see Bonner's name brought up.
He was shopped more last year than this year....
Assuming no trade and Fin, Bonner, and RMJ simply expire this summer, I would not be the least surprised if next year we fill out our roster with some of our non-Splitter overseas assets.Good post.

In addition to Hairston, they may provide the the cheapest way to round out our already bloated roster. , I wouldn't be surprised if Ian is brought back with a contract similar to Hairston's current one. IMO Ian provides value at the 800K range.
Someone will be stupid enough to give Mahinmi more than that.
This will be a typical trade deadline. So many rumours, so much chat, so much hope, but in the end nothing really happens
I am pretty sure the Nuggets will stand pat, unless they can pry a big man away for next to nothing
One to share.
