The Ric Bucher bit of news came from this video: http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=534...goryid=2459788

if EricB does have sources, and said he was surprised by the target for the LLE, lets say the Spurs sign said player, how will we know if you are telling the truth.

You can't say "my sources were right" because you never mentioned the players name, the Spurs could go out and sign "whoever" and you could be like yep that was who my sources said they were going to sign.

You aren't even saying if it is a SF, his previous team, etc.

This is like me saying "my sources tell me the Spurs will sign someone this offseason"

Exactly. Don't name a name TPark. Just give us his current NBA division (Southwest, etc.) and what position he plays.

Otherwise you have zero credibility on the source thing.

What is the record for locked threads in a 24 hour period? Kori is busy today.

Busy? How much effort does it take to lock less than a handful of threads?

It's a joke you dense mother er.

[Lebowski Brickowski]

So, Matt Barnes is a cheap replacement....and they WILL need a cheap replacement.

You're a worse comedian than Lefty you lame mother er.

I'm just saying that Kori is locking a lot of threads today and you, for some reason, find this cause to flip out? And I'm lame? OK, cowboy. You got me.

[TimDunkem]

I flipped out? Where?

Don't call me cowboy by the way. That sounds like some goty Culburn bull .

[iManu]

Great.

Why are you responding to me in the first place? This really isn't argument material. I don't know what " goty Culburn bull " is. Are you mentally imbalanced or something?

[phxspurfan]

Yes!!! gg Spurs!

It was more of a jab at Kori than a knock on your lame joke because it really takes no effort to lock a few threads. It should be done regularly. I was actually about to edit my post when you flipped out.

And don't play dumb. If you've ever clicked on the NBA forum then you know who that pedo Culburn is.

Ugh . . . I know it takes no effort to lock threads. Sarcasm is a hard concept to grasp apparently. I guess it was kind of lame, but it really didn't require a response at all. I didn't flip out, I am just pretty casual about my use of the word mother er. Lastly, I really have no idea what this Culburn is, but it sounds like something i wouldn't be interested in. So, have fun, good luck with all that.

I guess you can't read either.

Moving on...

I can't believe this. He better not get more than 10 mil per season.. 4 years 30 million is reasonable.

Y! Sports' Latest Free Agency Buzz: Richard Jefferson eyes return to Metropolitan N.Y. area: http://tinyurl.com/34uvljx

[Creation88]

Richard Jefferson doesn’t have a deal with the San Antonio Spurs and would prefer to return to the New York area to play for the Knicks or Nets, league sources told Y! Sports.

Jefferson is seeking a multiyear contract that averages in the range of $8 million-$10 million, sources said. He opted out of the $15 million final season of his contract with the Spurs on Tuesday.

Jefferson has built a good relationship with Spurs coach Gregg Popovich, but doesn’t think the team’s system best fits his skills.

The Spurs could still try to sign Jefferson to a contract that lowers their luxury-tax hit, depending on what other options they find in free agency.

[DesignatedT]

We don't have any other options....?

[Lebowski Brickowski]

Exactly. Jefferson wasn't great, but Matt barnes, James Jones and other LLE or Min players aren't going to have the ability to potentially go off for 20+ on any given night.

Have some in here completely forgotten why the Spurs needed to go out and get a 4th scorer?

TD, Tony, Manu, George = 4 scorers

Best option for SF LLE is defensive sf who can shoot the 3 and slash -- matt barnes fits that bill

[BillMc]

What a ass. As if he hadnt hurt the Spurs enough already.

For those of you rejoicing this aint good news. Even with his 15 mill off the books the Spurs wont have money to spend in FA, as bad as RJ was his replacement wont be as talented. Not only that but a 15 mill expiring contract couldve had alot of value going into the trade deadline. you Jefferson. you.

+10000000

He would have been a great trade assest. Could have been better in the 2nd year and is still WAAAYYYY better than anyone our capped out team could get.
