Injuries, old (32 next season), cursed...
SAS's MLE is reserved for Splitter.
He's not going to get more than the MLE from any team. I would lean towards offering him the entire LLE and praying... He's made enough over the years that success might be more interesting than money. He would add another creative player with a lot of talent, and we could keep his minutes low, just like we did with Barry, thus reducing injury risk. For the LLE, it would be a very good gamble IMO.
oh god no.
I'm guessing he ends up in Orlando for little money, depending on how far they go in the playoffs..
lol
nah too old and injury prone
I would go for it if he were to come for cheap. But he's too proud of himself to do that.
couldnt be worse than jefferson.
Pass. These days all TMac is a broken down shot chucker who doesn't play defense. Agree with HH that he'll end up in Orlando on the cheap.
Actually, I think he could. At least Jefferson tries.
If he'd accept the LLE, yes. He said in end of year interviews that he's made enough money in his career, and would be willing to play somewhere without money being an issue. Yes, he's not the same T-Mac from 2005, but for a small contract he's a million times better than Bogans, Mason, etc. He's still a great passer, still has a very good mid-range shot, and has defensive length.
I actually think T-Mac could be a nice backup point guard to play alongside Hill and give a similar type of look you get with Manu, if you just looked on the surface of skill-set and talent. But I want no part of his excuse-making, hangnail-notifying, ain't-never-done-nothin', piss-poor at ude.
Unfortunately, for as talented and useful as he still could be, the guy's basically cancer. Not in the conventional way you'd use that term but you can't count on him to be on the court (which effects players and coaches alike) and his at ude, in general, just finds a way to bring down the room.
It's a shame. He really could be helpful to a team like the Spurs.
Sorry I lol'd you bro. Want a job?
T-Mac ------>
It probably would have been better had I just lol'd him.
I stand by what I said but the reward outweighs the risk at this point and the Spurs aren't in any position to scoff at talent with an overly cautious approach.
I'd expect him to land in LA or MIA but you have to kick the tires; sometimes it takes rolling the dice to have a chance to win . . .
No worries there. LLE can only be 2yrs max.
Not even for the min.
Last time you said that, Bonner got a 4 year deal. Bonner thread!
Not even for the min.
I wasn't sure you'd have anything left after the Bonner contract -- this gives me hope you'll be able to muster up something once Bogans is brought back.
Not even for the min.
He needs a lot of touches to be productive. Sure, if he'd focus on being a team player and rebounding and defense he'd be an awesome role player. Fat chance.
If Jefferson bolts and the Spurs are looking at absolutely nothing at the 3 then, I guess, why not? The Spurs have made stretches before on aging vets who once never would have appeared to be Spurs material (Ron Mercer, NVE & Glenn Robinson).
He'd be a decent roleplayer if he can have the mentality of a Grant Hill 2.0
At this point why not?
