Seems like maybe RJ is using the local media to drive his price up.
I have no interest in RJ for 3 years and $30M and do not understand why the Spurs would either.

Toy Story 3 was good.
The Killers was good too.
A-Team was fun.
I don't think I've gone to the movies in five years.
Going to see The Grown Ups tomorrow..pretty psyched about it.
Every 5 seconds it changes. Who cares, the world ends in 2012.
''Another had the terms at five years for $45 million, with the final season likely only partially''
He'd probably like/take:
30 for 3 years
36 for 4 years
40 for 5 years
I'd like a trade exception to get someone else who fits better (like Mike Miller). If not, I'd like 24 for 3 years - that's the most he's worth in this system. But he he'll probably get more as he does have leverage (Spurs are toast if he leaves).
In comparison, the Lakers got Artest for the MLE and Odom got 33/4 with team option in the 4th just last year. The Gasol gift has unbalanced all parity in the NBA.
I'm sorry, I had plenty of faith in RJ before last season but now I do not think he should get an extended contract here. He hasn't proven he's worth it. Everyone else who knows they want to negotiate their contract goes out of their way to play better (if only for a short period of time). Why would they think he should be here for 3 years for any real amount of money?! It doesn't make sense and quite frankly it isn't fair.
You should go!
Toy Story 3 got an ovation at the end at the (full theater) Paladium last Saturday.
saw the A-Team good movie, going to see Predators next week
On Grown Ups, you'll be sorely disappointed. That movie really sucked.
And Phila, you've never seen the original Karate Kid??
I'm going to go see The Last Air Bender tonight..
Saw The A-Team a few weeks back, it was pretty good.
I want to go see Toy Story 3, maybe tomorrow.
unthinkable with samuel l jackson is the best movie ive seen in a while ill tell yall what happen's, sam is a detective and he tortures a terror suspect and kills his wife in front of him, and the detective lady saves the terrorist and he explodes a nuclear bomb and everybody dies, great movie though yall should see it
So his return COULD BE imminent...and I COULD BE the coolest man alive.
toy story 3 was the no doubt
Guess this is the right place to put this.

Spurs and Richard Jefferson's agent have discussed a new deal, but nothing in works. RJ would love return to NY-area, but NJ not interested.
Why do you guys care so much about what he gets paid? It's not coming out of your pocket.
The real question should be: do you want him back or not?
I can't believe how many idiots there are on here who think the spurs would be better off with some minimum-salary player. The Spurs would be playing 4 on 5. But hey, at least you could then say "he's not overpaid like Jefferson was."
The Spurs actually operate on budget. Fewer dollars paid to RJ, more dollars available to acquire other talent.
Why don't you get your crystal ball out and tell us?
All they have to acquire new players is the MLE and LLE. Jefferson's signing doesn't will have no bearing on who they acquire in the immediate future.
I say let the Spurs worry about how much Holt is willing to pay.
Jefferson should be judged by what he gives the Spurs compared to other realistic options, not by how good or bad a dollar-for-dollar value he is.
Anyone else find the story le really stupid? Should the words "could be" and "imminent" ever be used together?
Having the MLE and LLE available and actually using them are not the same thing.
Do you really think that by signing Jefferson the Spurs will decide to no longer pursue Splitter (who they will use most/all of the MLE on)? I don't.
That leaves the LLE. Would you rather the Spurs retain Jefferson at whatever cost and not use the LLE, or would you rather Jefferson walks and the Spurs try to find a starting SF at the LLE?
Nor do I. There are the next 2, 3, or 4 years to consider.
I say worry about that later. Timmy and Manu are only getting older.
