Getting Splitter and Ginobili back at a reasonable price was good, but they really needed a backup point guard and didn't get it done
B. 28 seconds away from the Championship. Kept the core, Kawhi will be even better. Signed a high quality shooter. Needed a backup PG...no dice on that one, unfortunately. But overall, not horrible.

Spurs should be about the same (maybe a little worse with Tim and Manu bringing less to the table), but they had a huge opportunity to get better and failed to do so.
THey won't be worse because a few like Kawhi and Joseph and a few should get better, but offseason moves yeah they could have done more IMO than bring in another guard (Better than Neal but let NEAL GO) and a backup BIG who is a project right now IMO. They really had other needs like backup SF and PG, neither addressed.

Weak offseason, seems like they got too exicted and blew their load signing scrubs and didn't get anyone that'd make a difference.
It's not guaranteed that Kawhi and CoJo improve enough to hide Tim and Manu being a year older tbh.
remember time stands still for the Spurs.
Tim I hope should be fine and have another good year, but as you said I won't count on it. Manu was horrible last year most of it later and in the playoffs, so a falloff is not possible from that is it? I hope others can pick up his slack like last year, he needs a different role on the team. You are right getting better is not a given and how much if they get better? Will Baynes learn the system and play? Alot of questions there. Will BELI be any good here? If so he can help alot in Manus place with some mins.

Spurs like Splitter. He fits with their system. We couldn't have gotten anybody better anyways.
Ginobili was always going to re-sign with the Spurs. And I knew the Spurs wouldn't disrespect him with a cheap contract. And can you honestly say that we would be better without him? Come on.
Love Marco Belleneli. He's going to fit into our system perfectly. Great pick-up.
Also love Pendergraph. 6'9 guy who can shoot outside and has a lot of athleticism. Definitely an improvement over Blair.
That's all I hear.
F- for me.
Spurs had legit cap space for the first time in forever, and what do they do?!?
Give 7m a year to the scrubbiest, injured, turnover prone player on your team who's 36, and who just singelhandedly cost TD his 5th ring, and his fourth Finals MVP.
Spurs are the ultimate joke for this.
Pretty sure the other 28 teams in the league that didn't make it to the finals would love to take the Spurs' place as the "ultimate joke."

Didn't move the needle much either way. Didn't get any obvious bargains or get robbed. Tried for more but didn't get it done, but at least avoided shooting themselves in the foot in the process.
Of course, this is before we see how Pendergraph and Belinelli perform (or see what happens with Jean-Charles). If one of them turns out to be a pivotal playoff performer for cheap, then it looks like a much better summer.
