We should at least see Baynes play some significant minutes before we start crowning him as better than such and such a player.
I guess some of you didn't learn from Pops Mensah-Bonsu or Ian Mahinmi. Don't get your hopes up.
told you all yesterday Splitter would be back ....gortat? oden?
He started in the POs and held the Lakers to 4 points in 8 minutes locking up Dwight like he was born to do it.
If Baynes were a better player than Splitter, he'd have made the NBA a long time ago and would be making a of a lot more than league minimum. Baynes' ceiling is sticking on an NBA roster as a garbage time player.
As I said, we should wait until he plays significant minutes and on a consistent basis at that. He has a lot of work to do.
No, Splitter is paid like an average to good big man. Elite big men get the max, and plenty of sub-elite good bigmen too. This contract is exactly what was expected, will be easy to move if the Spurs want to.
Why are you still here? You said you're sick of the Spurs, so leave.
I enjoy seeing people like you trying their hardest to get excited about it.
Sign and trade?
Disagree, look at what Minny is doing: 30M for Kevin Martin, 16M for Chase Budinger...not exactly signaling "we want AK', but we will see..
Oh idk that.
LOL Kevin Martin
Forgive me is this question has already been asked or if it is too obvious. We extended a qualifying offer to Tiago at $4.9m and now if we sign him for $36m over 4 years does that mean he will go on the books for (assuming contract is not front or back loaded);
Season 13/14: $4.9m
Season 14/15: $9m
Season 15/16: $9m
Season 16/17: $9m
Season 17/18: $9m
I guess my question is, will his extension kick in for the 14/15 season? Thus not affecting our cap space this offseason?
Thanks.
Good question. The QO is simply a place holder for players in Tiago's situation to make him a restricted free agent. If he does what he just did (agrees to a deal with the Spurs for 4 years/36M), that deal supercedes the qualifying offer and starts that same year.
Man, this last finals loss hasn't sit well with Spurs' fans. Bunch of re ed, shortsighted opinions everywhere, even from good posters.

I know. They had such a crappy season. No chemistry at all, especially on defense. Woe is Tim.
The qualifying offer is just the minimum contract you have to offer to keep restricted rights on a guy. When you agree to an actual deal, the new contract replaces the qualifying offer. So take the $4.9 off your table and move everything up a year and that's what it looks like, again assuming that Tiago's deal is a flat $9mil/yr (which we don't know yet).
Guaransheed CG gets quoted.
No, they won't. The Spurs will extend him next summer.
I would not have signed Splitter. Splitter cost the Spurs the championship. Easily the 2nd worst Spur in history behind Ime Udoka.
Lets just hope Baynes gets actual playing time and develops into an NBA player, which I think he can definitely do, because if SA plays MIA again they are ED with Splitter on the roster.
They MUST get someone to help them beat MIA, hopefully they get Ak 47.
Great signing. We need Tiago.
Bingo.So much ignorance in this thread.
Splitter had a horrible Finals but otherwise a very good year. He plays tough defence, passes well, can be deadly on the pnr, and has court smarts. He was always going to get $8-10mil/yr from someone because big men get overpaid in the NBA.
Not a great deal, not a terrible one, and he's easy to move on that contract if the team wants to.
As for those saying "let him walk", how then do you replace him with a guy of equal or better talent for less money???
Welcome back golden god.
