Bonner...lmao u know pop ain't gonna wanna part ways with bonner
That's a good list but remember, we're dealing with Pop here. Only untouchable guy is Bonner, everyone else can be traded.
Bonner
Jefferson
as well.
Who will take those contracts...
splitter
neal
unless a good deal comes along, both combined is 4m
blair = nba minimum
rj = we seriously need to offload this contract
bonner = " " " "
tp = " " " "
they just signed Bonner lol. he ain't going nowhere.![]()
Maybe we can use Neal to sweeten a deal to unload Splitter...
Neal shouldn't be untouchable IMO we need to decide between him & hll next season. Neal is undersized & cant play defense, he always takes bad shots as well. So I'd pick hill; I wouldn't mind seeing neal,blair & bonner get the boot.
I would think Neal's a keeper b/c the Spurs discovered him.
He's undersized that's the only problem. We used to get players that we needed now we just get undersized scrubs.
Manu, Bonner, RJ, Hill, and hopfully Duncan are the only untouchables on Pop's team. I don't think anyone else is safe.
the only true untouchable is Jefferson because of his garbage contract.
Bonner to a lesser degree, but I think a team that wouldn't mind paying 3-4 million a year for over 30 garbage time 5th-6th big would take him. The wouldn't play him 22 minutes per game like unless they were a fraud team like the Spurs.
Funny that some of the biggest pro-RJ and pro-Bonner contract people around I've now seen walkback like crazy.
Realistically untouchable: Tim, Manu, Tony, Bonner, RJ, Hill
Who I think should stick around?: Tim, Manu, Tony, Neal, Splitter, Anderson
McDyess will be retired.
Why would anyone besides Tim be untouchable?
I forgot about Hill...he's their ace in the hole, like Roddy B is with Dallas
Manu means as much or more than Duncan at this point, and Pop knows it.
Pop loves Hill and thinks he's a backup point guard. The reason Parker's not on my list is because I fear Pop thinks Hill is a starting point guard.
Pop loves Bonner and he's overpaid with more than one year left.
RJ is overpaid with more than one year left.
I assume Pop has some loyalty to Tim Duncan, though I'm not sure, considering the way he's treated Duncan in the playoffs the last five years.
Except Hill actually produces decently overall.
What separates them is health. When both are healthy they are too Jekyll-and-Hyde though. Unreliable players, imho.
That is all role players my friend. Hill has produced when it matters for the most part, which is all you can ask.
True, although I think his future with the Spurs will become more than that of a role player.
His future is Jamal Crawford at best. Which is fine with me. I like all of the Spurs (except for RJ), but the question is who is untouchable. My take is that no one except Tim should be off limits.
Obviously, we have to see how this playoff run goes. We also have to see what the goal is next year, because the window may be shut now. I would love the big 3 to end their career's in SA, but for that to happen and it to make sense will be difficult.
Tim and Manu, and maybe Splitter should be the only real untouchables. Parker can be shopped around, and could bring some good pieces back. I think Pop has larger plans for Hill than that of 6th man, tbh. It seems as if he's being groomed to take over the starting PG job, but I could be wrong.
Hill was beasting last year without Parker, even tho he had Manu to handle the ball but still...
