Be still my heart.
Does this leave Corey Joseph Austin bound or do we see him and DeColo as interchangeable parts that will swap time in Austin?Damn, Ludden scoops the Duncan re-signing, Mills re-signing and bringing in De Colo in a matter of sentences. Legendary stuff
Be still my heart.
We Stacked. Again.
yes. Good to here! Finally the news is starting to come in!
IIRC, the final year for KG's contract isn't fully guaranteed. However, I can't Google a link that spells it out. Maybe someone else can find details.
As for Duncan, I'd bet the third year is partially guaranteed. I'm hoping fully guaranteed because it'd be cool to see him play three more seasons.
Anyway, three years and ~$34 million is great value even for an old Tim Duncan.
Great news.
Even if Spurs won't likely win a le with Duncan, it's really nice to be able to see him at least a couple of years. I'm waiting to see details of his deal but at the end it doesn't really matter. Duncan is staying, that's cool.
Mills and De Colo signed is too a good news because both should be cheap. Saying Spurs have a true logjam of guards. There will likely have a trade.
Bonner just renegotiated his contract for another 26 years.
Depends on the details for Mills and De Colo. If they both signed for the minimum (unlikely), the Spurs would have ~$2 million to spend.
The likely scenario is the Spurs will be relegated to trades to improve from here on out.
Damn good news.
The FO know how to get it done even if they make us wait.
Next up: unload some guys and get another big.
Blair wants out and Neal looks expendable again. Methinks a trade for an athletic forward (Anthony Randolph?) could be wangled.
Damn, in just 16 hours the Spurs did more than any other team has yet this offseason (and extremely efficiently as well). I know this was all most likely handled over the course of the last week and a half, but it's still pretty awesome.
Now get rid of Bonner.
BTW, where did the $36M figure come?
If Spurs need more space below the apron or want to stay below the luxury tax threshold, they can amnesty Bonner.
Timmy is worth every penny. Three more years in a Spurs uni!
Very happy to have Duncan back in the fold for another 3 years. Cheers Big Fundamental.
Gotta think a trade of Neal or Joseph is on the horizon (with Neal being more likely). Very crowded backcourt.
Parker/De Colo/Mills/Joseph
Manu/Green/Neal/(Denmon?)
As expected as this news was, it's still good now that the deal is done. It goes without saying that Duncan is a franchise icon and richly deserves this.
I only hope that the FO can now surround him with at least 2 young, athletic bigs, which he could begin mentoring and who could help him with some of the heavy lifting over his remaining years.
If the only way to accomplish this is via the trade route, bring it on.
It is not news. There was no doubt the Spurs were going to re-sign their players.
Now lets see if they can get a player who will make a big impact and be a difference maker. That would be news.
The Lakers added Nash the Spurs are bringing back the same team.
Im a big fan of Gary Neal, but Patty makes him duplicative tbh. You have to think he's being shopped, plus in many ways the Spurs would have similar contract issues with Neal as with Splitter next summer.
With respect to trades, it would almost have to take two value contracts like Blair & Neal to entice a team to take Bonner. Thise three together though is pretty great value for $5M.
I can see Neal and Blair being traded.
Resigning Green, Mills and signing De Colo mean no room for Neal.
Neal, Blair and Bonner could be traded for a nice backup PF.

The Lakers have done more to improve from last year by adding Nash.
I have to imagine that Neal has some value around the NBA, though I'm not sure what that is. I agree. Package him, Bonner and possibly Blair in order to entice a team to trade a young athletic big man, if possible.
So Diaw signs on for 2 more years, which if I have this right would follow the end of Parker's contract. I'm very curious if Tim wants to play 2 more years and the third year is an expiring they can potentially use at that point if they plan on some rebuilding?
If the Spurs are going to amnesty Bonner, it has to be done by tomorrow, correct?
