    Give me Stevenson at 10M/y, it's gonna be such a bargain compared to Hayward...

    Regarding Kawhi who knows, it's likely someone could extend a max offer if only to with the Spurs but you never know... You roll the dice and see if you can bluff your way to something a bit more reasonable, Utah could have pulled it off if Charlotte thought they had a chance with the higher profile guys... Besides Kawhi has missed a whole lot of games so far, could get Millsed if he doesn't agree to an early extension at a small discount.

    Dallas needs youth and two way players, I hope they go after Stevenson is only to see what Carlisle could do with him...

    I think both players are getting the same money tbh, if it's Leonard's max so be it, but a little less would be great...

    Btw you predicted that teams wouldn't offer Diaw more than the MLE so off with know-it-all bs.

    No. I predicted that Diaw would sign for 3/21 weeks ago.

    You, OTOH, were wrong in a spectacular way about Mills and you already can see how wrong you were about Leonard.

    Baam I've been wondering something: How is your handle pronounced? Is it like 'bomb', like 'bam', or something else?

    Which was exactly the point - they'd offer him just above the MLE to keep him off the market, because no one else would offer more than the MLE...

    Mel is like a homeless version of Bruno tbh , guy needs to pat himself on the back every 2 posts... And when he's wrong he gets all butthurt ...

    You were wrong about Diaw deal with it already ... Regarding Mills I said paying him more than the min not to play was stupid as and I stand by it, especially since it's a shoulder injury and his main skill on the court is shooting.

    Because the Spurs have a pattern of paying above-market rates for players.

    I think you're confusing Mel with Richie, who always seems to have a low estimate for contracts, save Mills, for whom he was unfortunately right on the money.

    I was right about Diaw.

    Links to prove otherwise or STFU.

    Regarding Mills, you said more than that. You said they wouldn't take care of him and laughed at a suggestion that he would get 2yrs/7M. Unlike you, I can back that up with links.

    And calling another poster butthurt? So terribly weak.

    No, they've never done it, like ever.

    Baam a bit off topic, but do you think the spurs get out of the first round this year without splitter?

    Heard it on ESPN 1250 earlier today and the guy gave KSAT12 credit. Wouldn't go into effect until the 2015-2016 season obviously.
    KSAT...Lol

    You don't know that. There was never a figure thrown out. So at this juncture, anybody could be right when it comes to other offers given to Diaw.

    I said a couple of weeks ago, it would be no surprise for the Spurs to pay Diaw as much as Manu, 7 mil a year and that is exactly what he got.

    Diaw took what was fair value for him. With teams overpaying for players yet again, I thinkg he could have easily gotten a bigger deal elsewhere, but I hardly doubt that would happen with him and Parker being best friends.

    Spurs paid him his FMV. anything higher would have been overpaying. As for other teams, nothing was ever disclosed so it mere speculation at this point.

    He'll get max, just a question of whether they go 5yr extension or wait until next year when he's restricted to match.

    Agree, very insecure guy. Mel lives for a pat on the back.

    He's getting whatever he wants

    spurs can't get star free agents who aren't washed up so they have to draft stars, they will never let him go
