As much as I criticized BC's offer sheet to Kleiza, it is the same as the Spurs are paying Bonner- and at least it is front-loaded so he won't be so overpaid in 3 years.
Technically, they would have been laughed at by his agent.For whom? The laughing agent still applies.or try a S&T for him.

Kleiza and Amir.
Plus the Raptors sucked even with Bosh. They are a complete joke now so signing Kleiza and Amir to contracts makes even less sense.
No- it is a price comparison whereby the Spurs will be paying RJ twice what Morrow is getting and for a longer term deal probably.
Who are the Spurs bidding against for RJ. If someone else wants him so much, S&T him.
Sure. That doesn't mean we couldn't have signed off an offer sheet.
Bonner or Jefferson
For whom?
He signs the offer sheet.
Which he wouldn't.
Cue laughing agent.
Cue laughing GM.Bonner or Jefferson
But that is not what you said. You only said this after your mistake. RJ is a better player than Morrow and deserves more. Just because he is a terrible fit with the Spurs, does not make Morrow a better player than him.
If the Spurs wanted him locked up so bad, it would already be done.
This was just a bad situation for the Spurs. No MLE to work with thanks to Splitter, the team was already very thin at SF, and I can't imagine any of the other teams being interested in a S&T involving RJ (at least not after last season). Hope the team didn't have to waste too much money on this guy. If it's anything over 3yrs or $20M it'll make trading Bowen/Thomas look like a bad deal in retrospect.
So funny how people act as if throwing comments at me about the Raptors matters! As soon as Rasho signs a new deal, my team will change again. I have never made any secret of that. I still hope it's the Rockets or the Heat, but it could be Real Madrid.
Sure. Could they throw money at Morrow?
I'm not so sure another team wouldn't take RJ at $4m per on a 3 year deal. That's less than the MLE.
I just don't think the Spurs want Morrow more than RJ.
Who? The Spurs? That doesn't even get you a windup.
Now RJ's agent is laughing.I'm not so sure another team wouldn't take RJ at $4m per on a 3 year deal. That's less than the MLE.
This is what I wrote--there is no mistake here.
Morrow signed an offer sheet for 3 years and $12M and the Spurs are going to throw money at RJ.
Whoever you were talking about here, which I'm pretty sure it's the Spurs:
Is he? I wonder why he's re-signing with the Spurs if he could fetch so much more than MLE money out there...
They can't throw if no one is catching.
Are the Spurs paying him less than the MLE?Is he? I wonder why he's re-signing with the Spurs if he could fetch so much more than MLE money out there...
As I said, technically speaking, sure they can.
Why can't they?
I don't know yet. Do you?
No catcher.
Seeing as he caught someone else's offer.
Technically speaking.
I don't know yet. Do you know Golden State would want RJ more than Morrow?I don't know yet. Do you?
touché
I'm not sure. I think under Nellie he would be a better fit for them than he would be for us, considering he like the fast pace. I'm just not even sure what's Nellie doing these days after that Knicks trade.
Wtf youre are either re ed or trolling.
Yes but to what end?
Sure they technically can throw the LLE money at him but what does it matter? Im sure the Spurs called the Raptors to explore a Bosh trade but what does it matter now? We dont have enough money to intrigue Morrow and thats that.
Morrow has agreed to offer sheet with Nets anyway, that the Warriors will probably match. In any case the road to Morrow now goes through a trade.
She's known for both.
Well, I understand that there are not a lot of fans around here who like RJ but I think signing him for around 6-7 mio a year is a good deal. I don't see any player who is as good as him for that amaount of money. Assuming Splitter will get the full MLE there are not many options left. For the LLE you simply don't get a player like RJ.
Out of the remainig free agents I like Matthews, Wright and Barnes but I doubt you get them with the LLE. I would really love the have this lineup next year:
Parker/Hill
Matthews/ Gino
Jefferson/Anderson (I know he is not really a 3)
Duncan/Blair/ Bonner
Splitter/Dyess
But I guess Matthews will get a better contract somewhere else.
$ 7 million for guy who gives you 13 pts a game , rebounds and plays decent defense is pretty good ! Come playoff time most teams rely on a 3 wing player rotation anyway for the bulk of the minutes. So Manu, Anderson and RJ with Hill playing a little 2 is good enough. your 4th wing is simply a time filler for the regular season , I'll settle with Hariston or Bogans anytime . So I guess this is the thing if Anderson can be an impact player and by that i mean avg double figures in the playoffs and hit big shots when open , we should be fine at the wings. There simply is no one left out there who could significantly provide us more for that kind of money
