I haven't kept up with all of the salary cap stuff and what is or is not possible from an economic standpoint... so help me out here.
Any chance the Spurs could lure T-Mac to San Antonio with their remaining $??

he's going to Miami.
Latest word I heard on that (Stein - ESPN) is that he's NOT likely to land in Miami. http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/pos...haq-t-mac-more
I thought the Clips were trying him out this week...
Nothing else on tmac? Clippers still the spot?
If only T-Mac were the kind of guy who could sacrifice himself to team success, he'd be a perfect fit for us. Unfortunately, that's not T-Mac though.
I pass that lazy ass
tmac for whatever remaining money the spurs have left is a no brainer. he only becomes a gamble if the spurs pay him over $5 million a year.
Exactly if he wants to come here for cheap than I am all for it. Worst that could happen if hes a cancer is waive his ass. He's going where the money is though IMHO.
come on Spurs gemble on him, we need player with size at SF position and he is low risk high reward type player!
T-Mac signing would complete this offseason. The man is 31 years old and still in his prime. If he's healthy he'd have the best year he's had since 08.
If the Spurs were to cut Gee, they'd have $1,514,468 left available to remain under the tax -- Gee's guaranteed $100K and Temple's now guaranteed $110k, both for simply being on the team by a certain date. (July 1st for Gee and Aug. 6th for Temple)
I'd love to have T-Mac's size and skill set if I knew he could be/become a solid all-around player more on the periphery, but I just can't see the Spurs gambling the type of money his acquisition could potentially cost them.
I didn't get a chance to really see T-Mac last year upon his comeback, so I can't speak to where his game is or project with my own knowledge, but the fact that he's still on the market and has been willing to play for so little and a team like Chicago has past on him so far after working him out ... that has to speak volumes about where he's at.
Great players that become a s of themselves -- perimeter players more so than any other -- don't have a good history of becoming really good role players that can utilize their talent for lesser roles.
Always been a fan of T-Mac's game, even if not at ude/way, so I hope he can make it back and enjoy some Grant Hill-like success as a role player -- that guy seems the exception to the rule.
Cause the Spurs don't have enough broken down shooting guards?
Heard about his workout in Chicago, still wants to start and still favoring his knee. The man don't have it upstairs or physically.
Honestly, I would rather have Jarvis Hayes, Rodney Carney or, , even Adam Morrison.
He apparently wants the opportunity to win a starting job from what I've heard. He's fine coming off the bench to start but doesn't want or intend on staying there, which is a problem.
Not many teams, other than the Spurs recently, feel they can contend with bench players or should/could be out-of-league players in their starting lineup.
What?..
McGrady is done, I would give him a chance if he accepts a 10 MPG bench role as a Point Forward, but he won't accept a role like that for the Spurs IMO, so let's move on..
Hey it's ok if T-Mac completely has a miraculous recovery and can prove to the coach in limited game time and in practice that he deserves to start. But until then, stfu and sit on the bench and play when your coach tells you to.
Pretty much.
Be surprising to see if Detroit really does get him on a minimum contract. I would have expected some better offers out there for T-mac.
YES !
Do it R.C !
Completely agree. Especially if he signs for a minimum contract in Detroit. Tells me he would absolutely come here if that's the best offer he has on the table. It's a low risk gamble for that type of money.
McGrady has serious heath problems, his at ude is questionable and he would have to play a role he never played in his career.
Because of the luxury tax, Spurs are very limited financially wise. Do you really want that Spurs spend all their remaining money on McGrady?
McGrady starting?
I'm used to Phila making outrageous statements, but that's even more ridiculous than the usual..
