Pau is injury prone this stage in his career. He's essentially a 7-8 mil a year guy. Not 10-12Would much rather have the Tiago/Diaw tandem for that much. Both low maintenance players.
You keep Boris, easily. Pau doesn't give you much more than what you already have with Tim/Tiago on the team tbh.

If the major players with cap room start to fill up their rosters than Pau could re think what he will play for.
Miami - big three + Lowry
Chicago - Melo
Houston - Matches Parsons
Dallas - Deng
Does that pretty much take care of the contenders with significant room?
I doubt he goes to a place like Phoenix.
I can see the arguments both ways, but the money doesn't matter to me. Either way (Pau or Boris) Spurs finances remain the overall same (or close enough). I think Pau is a tremendous fit (passing, shooting and overall ability) and I think it would work.
While I agree with you, we can't say something similar hasn't happened. Our own Centerpiece got a load of money as a S&T filler.
Me too, Pau is 33 and little if ant defense, Tiago is 29 and is defensive and offensive and Boris is 32 with 3 pt shooting, offensive and defensive.Pau is injury prone this stage in his career. He's essentially a 7-8 mil a year guy. Not 10-12
No matter how you slice it the Spurs are better off with Boris and Tiago.
No way i would give up Boris for Pau. Boris has been able to pull some out of his ass against 'Bron theres no way Pau could do the same. Boris is younger and seems less emotional and less ego IMO.
As much as I like Pau's game the Spurs need mobile and shot blocking bigs at this point. The Spurs also would not be able to offer much playing time for Pau with Duncan/Splitter/Diaw (assuming he re-signs).
Thunder also have the M.L.E but i saw on Hoophype that it was unlikely that he'd go to OKC
I too would like Pau but not at the expense of any of our main 8.
Lakers could be interested in Patty. A S&T with Patty and a filler might work although I assume some would even be against that
Yeah they would become a player if Pau started to consider MLE money. I was talking about the teams that could offer him what he reportedly wants though (10-12 / yr)
This is some of the dumbest I've ever read. If you could do a S&T with non guarnteed deals do you have any idea how many teams would abuse the out of htat?
I think Boris over Pau. Boris deserves some loyalty.
Ed Davis would be a great pickup.
ok, didn't read your post close enough.
Jeff Goodman @GoodmanESPN
Josh McRoberts drawn interest from Charlotte, Dallas, Clev, Miami, Clippers, Knicks, Portland, Phoenix, Spurs and Lakers, source told ESPN.
I agree that it's dumb, but I guess it makes a tiny bit of sense to trade a nonguaranteed contract to the Lakers since they'll probably want to test the free agency pool again next summer.
If we could sign and trade bonner and ayres for him that would be sweet. but agree no way LA does that.

Except that the Bonner example in that scenario is impossible.
If we package cojo, ayres, and Bonner at 2mil is the maximum incoming salary 150% of the outgoing?
Oh. Well .
I can't imagine LA wanting any of SA's players (especially with Patty now hurt). LA does need players though so who knows.
That's good news.
Yes, because it's less than 9.8M.
My guess is that the Spurs were just putting out feelers to see if Gasol wanted to come here and if so, how much would he want.
Once they found out, they moved on to the next FA on their list which may or may not be McRoberts.
At this point they have exed him off their list too and are moving on to next guy after him.
By the time we get the reports, they have moved on, one step ahead of everyone.
