Didn't the Heat just open a roster spot with that Roger Mason Jr trade?

We can all hope. Most likely not gonna happen. I can see him going to Memphis
Has Miami written all over him.
Admittedly the injuries have taken their toll on this guy and he definitely isn't the player he was. That being said, if he can get back into shape and produce at 80% of what he once did he would be a good Kawhi backup and would help the Spurs address some of the small ball issues they could potentially face in the playoffs.
Also he went to New Mexico for college and was playing in Indiana, so at least San Antonio can't look like too bad a destination, can it?
Every released player or free agent has Miami written all over them. It's the safest bet by a long shot, if the Pacers aren't in play.
That said, I expect he goes to OKC if not the Miami coattails...
When media says player X is interested in the Spurs, it's usually code word for "I wanna get as much money as possible, so I'm just going to name the Spurs to increase my value"
That being said, he'd be a great back up 3.
I dunno, after his tough guy antics against the Heat and LeBron pretty much calling him out during that series because of it leads me to believe he probably won't end up in Miami, but who knows. Winning cures all
I don't know why these F/A's even make it sound like there are multiple candidates (For some reason, Spurs are always one of them). Granger may as well have been wearing a Heat shirt on the plane ride to Philly.
That's our only chance in getting him, really.
If Granger and Caron Butler are both bought out, surely both won't be going to Miami.
Out of curiosity, do y'all think we would've made that De Colo for Daye trade if we were planning on going after a backup SF like Butler or Granger?
It's Miami though. Players these days seem to do whatever it takes so that they can have a chance to coattail with Miami.
I'd bet money Granger ends up in Miami if he's bought out, and there's a solid chance you could see butler going there as well.
Can the Spurs offer more money than the minimum?
This could be very interesting. Can Granger play the 2?
You can't count on it though... Plus, like someone else on this forum said, it appears more like we traded De Colo more as a service to him than it was to acquire a SF.
Yes. He has also played the small ball 4 for Indy in the past.
We owed Toronto one for taking Rasho's contract off our hands.
So Miami it is
If we could get Granger that would be HUGE. He hasn't played great this year, but it definitely would boost our second unit. We probably wouldn't need to give Ayres minutes at all.
Diaw/Granger/Belinelli/Ginobili/Mills
Now that's what I call smallball.If we could get Granger that would be HUGE. He hasn't played great this year, but it definitely would boost our second unit. We probably wouldn't need to give Ayres minutes at all.

another 20 pages thread coming
Stein commenting on the issue:
It also assumes that Splitter starts. If Diaw starts next to Duncan, it becomes a bench lineup of Splitter/Granger/Beli/Manu/Mills, which doesn't look too shabby on paper.
Then again, in the playoffs it is extremely rare to have 5 bench players on the floor at the same time. A roster doesn't have just two lineup possibilities (5 starters, 5 bench players), it has hundreds.
OKC is going to sign Jason Terry just to annoy Spursfan. I could see them going after Granger, too.
