Thank Splitter and Diaw for that
Why? We had to extend Tony before we signed any free agent anyway, it just happened earlier than expected.

Great news. He'll be a spur for life no doubt.
Peter Holt recently said in an interview that Tim Tony and Manu can play for however long they want for the Spurs. I don't think he was joking or exaggerating. The Big three will all retire as Spurs, there was never any alternative.
Dynasty
Buy while it's low. Good job Spurs FO.
3yr/45M (per Woj)
TP has always chosen security over uncertainty & it appears this was no different. I am sure he took into consideration some of the injuries popping up and will probably be a better than expected contract for the Spurs IMO. I don't think he gets paid his market value, it will probably be a value deal like his last deal.
Good news is either way, it was the right thing to do. Kawhi's deal is much more complicated and hopefully it's not a 5 year extension. I wonder if Tim/Manu are next? Green is in line for a deal as well, but he might test the market.
Tony getting paid. He's overdue though tbh. He's been underpaid his whole career.
I disagree. They could have waited and done what they did with Duncan. Better for all parties provided Parker doesn't fall off this season.
If 2013 Manu got 14M/yr
It was only right Parker got the same at the same age
@MarkDeeksNBA:
"Tony Parker's maximum value extension would be three years and $43,335,938. Bet that's how much he got."
Spur for life!
Well, damn. While it's fair, TP took the max. No more "discounts" and that hurts the cap space situation. I guess TP feels that TD/Manu will have to take the paycuts from here on out as he is the youngest.
That's a max extension. Tony's finally joined the club. Kawhi will be next.
This works out from a Spurs perspective but not so much from a Parker (and Parker's agent) perspective.
He'll still be making less than Kawhi. Not a bad deal by any means.
Why not? He could have gotten more by waiting.
Manu got a max extension at the same age.
Gordon Hayward now makes more money than Tony Parker the #2 best player this franchise has ever seen
The Spurs prioritize taking care of their own over anything else. Just the way it is and one of the reasons why I love this organization so much.
Mark Deeks at Sham reporting his max possible deal is $43.3/3yr, crazy bargain. Means his salary next year will be at most $13.5m
Calling that the max is dumb tbh...
Right but this money is there now. Like you mentioned, does he get a max deal next offseason if he sustains a Derek Rose injury in February? It's an extreme scenario but nonetheless, something he has to consider.
How are people acting like this isn't a discount? $14m per for Parker is still cheap, even if he declines somewhat.
