who do we need
spurs are pretty set at most positions
seems just need role players that can make open threes
Where do we stand? Will we have any room to sign a big name free agent? I was really hoping Davis would be a possibility.

Anthony Davis would on any big man in the NBA today. Already has. Do you know how many people state he's the second coming of Duncan? Obviously he's no Duncan, but he's got so much potential.
Yeah he is the second coming of a top 5 player of all time.. Give us a buzz when that train hits town..
i wasing on your idea that we have any chance of signing him tbh.
So who would you rather have when Duncan and Gino retire? He's already a top 3-5 big man, arguably the best, at age 20. He also prefers small markets.
Keep building through the draft.. Not a fan of hired guns being franchise guys..
Some people never learn that free agents won't come here, especially not another teams franchise player. This is a build through the draft team.
The way it should be..
Something tells me that if Davis were to find his way here, you'd find a way to get over it.![]()
Just the thought of a Kawhi/Davis combo would be scary for the NBA.
Anyone talking about Davis doesn't understand the way the NBA works. He'll either get a max extension or Pelicans will match any deal he signs in restricted free agency. He'll be in New Orleans until at least 2020.
As for the original question, we're not extending Kawhi. We'll match any offer he gets as a restricted free agent (likely the max), but there is no benefit from the Spurs perspective to extending him before then.
Assuming Timmy comes back and Manu either retires or takes the Room exception, we'd have $20m to split between Duncan and a free agent. That could be $5m/$15m if Timmy takes another paycut or $10m/$10m if he doesn't.
If Timmy and Manu both retire, we get $20m for a free agent.
Franchise players haven't come to the Spurs, because the Spurs have never had the cap space.
Its about time to pink cat man tbh. A fourth of the threads on the front page are his and none of them are worth a . I mean god damn, you don't have to post a thread for every thought that pops into your head.
So assuming Tim and Manu both retire and we match a max offer sheet to Kawhi in RFA, we still get $20M to spend on a 2015 free agent?
Does your pussy hurt? This is a legitimate thread/question.
I know it's been asked before, but if someone throws a Parsons type offer at him (two years with option), we can still go back with a full five year max as the match?
Jesus I hope not. I knew your takes were before () but lately you've been reaching rock bottom. Thought maybe your trolling was getting better but that hick state edumacation might be too much for you after all.
No, not in that order. Kawhi has to be the last signing. His cap hold is ridiculously low, since he was drafted one pick outside of the lottery. That's what gives you the caproom to sign Tim and/or a FA. You sign Tim, court and sign the FA, and then use Bird rights to resign Kawhi over the cap.
but who would win 1 on 1?
Signing a big FA with cap space before reupping Leonard might put the Spurs in tax trouble in later years. It's very possible that the team will extend Kawhi then sign a FA with whatever's left over. There are actually quite a few good players who are on those types of deals. Millsap, Jefferson, West and Iggy each signed deals in that range last season. Deng signed such a deal this off-season. It's probably more likely that the team could attract a player of that caliber over a max-caliber player, anyway.
Dreamcast, man. It had the memory card inside the controller. I don't see Kawhi or Parker getting that any time soon.
