    Read the above link. The QO expires on March 1 no matter what. At that point, Baynes would not be able to sign an offer sheet. He'd be completely at the Spurs' mercy. Portland did NOT refuse to match the Spurs' deal. They literally gave up Mills' rights for no compensation and without any coercion. SA subsequently signed Mills as a UFA.

    Could the Blazers have squeezed the Spurs for something like a 2nd round pick, or is there no mechanism for a deal like that? No salary did or ever would have changed hands.

    Sign-and-trade may have still been on the table had they had a roster spot.

    True, but that was an anomaly resulting from a strike-shortened season with a March 15th trade deadline. The Spurs won't be able to trade Baynes in a scenario where he returns from China after March 1st. The only options would be to sign him, renounce him, or let him wait until free agency begins again in July.

    And thanks for answering ex for me.

    Indeed. Do you know if that's what will happen on the first if the Spurs let Baynes' QO expire? Or can he still sign offer sheets even without a QO?

    And no problem. We have a habit of answering the same questions almost simultaneously anyway. Just happened to work out without the redundancies this time.

    As I understand it, Baynes can continue to sign offer sheets after the QO expires on October 1st all the way up March 1st. He remains restricted unless the Spurs renounce their rights.

    Ayon thinks he's worth $2.2 million per year.

    Blatche signed with a team in China. I can't believe he couldn't secure a deal with anyone in the NBA. Makes no damn sense. Something has to have happened that wasn't reported yet with him.

    I watched a couple of his games when he played with the Philippines in FIBA. Dude turned into Josh Smith, chucking 3s with no regard for human life.
