Tim Duncan: “That’s a big dude.” Luckily, instructors had a 7-foot-tall outfit for him to wear.

Tobias Harris would actually not be a bad idea but Orlando would probably match whatever Spurs might offer him

Clearing space to try and get LA, any realistic options? Maybe Boris and a pick for Brendan Haywood contract?
To me, RFA are completely out of the question as Spurs need to act very quickly in free agency. Can't afford to clog cap space for 72 hours when a lot of other pieces could fall in that period, particularly the main targets. Best to know immediately.
I do like Harris and hope he ends up just signing the QO and becoming UFA next year. Right coaching and he could develop nicely.
Given Robin Lopez is also a free agent, that could work if Aldridge makes it clear to Portland that he intends to leave. Portland would get a useful piece in the trade that they could either run with or get assets for post-free agency / in season. Spurs would have to have another deal lined up for Splitter to ensure that they don't have to give up too much else in return to Portland.
If there's a deal to move Splitter that creates cap space and doesn't require significant assets to be shipped out, that works too.
If the LMA plan falls through, I wouldn't mind the Spurs trying to piece a couple really solid pieces together and running it back. Would it be possible for the team to offer something like a $10 million deal for Tyson Chandler and a $4 million deal for KJ McDaniels?
This will be the first time since ??? that the spurs will actually have to go get a top NBA player somehow. Uncharted waters.
I posted about this in the Think Tank Free Agency thread, but ...
BOBAN MARJANOVIC should be a target. Free agent with Cvrena Zvezda. 7-3 monster who scores and scores and scores in the post. I compare him to All Jefferson, he's that effective. Plus he doesn't mess around, he'll dunk when the opportunity's there. And on defense, I compare him to Al Jefferson. He's going to have major problems defending NBA pick and rolls I think. Buy he tries on defense must of the time, he's just limited. But he takes up massive space and can be a factor around the rim as long as he doesn't have to recover there from the perimeter.
1st Team all euro league. 27 minutes, 16.6 points, 10.7 rebounds, 0.9 blocks.
Compared to someone like Enes Kanter, he looks like the better deal. Even if he was a part time player for the spurs, playing 24 minutes a game and splitting time with someone like splitter or Duncan, he would be a great value at mle type money, even up to 7-8 wouldn't be unreasonable. He wouldn't be as historically awful as Kanter on defense, that's something I'm confident of.
He can't defend the perimeter like splitter, but he'll damn straight up wreck fools on offense. If Boban was of the bench being covered by big baby, he would have devastated him. Massacre time.
After we say goodbye to Marco who do you prefer as a new wing addition, two options that could be in our range: Wayne Ellington or KJ McDaniels? Maybe we can bring both if Manu retire?
I'm actually looking forward to the offseason just to see a different team. RC usually pulls out some unexpected things. Tired of seeing the same team tbh.
The same team that just had three deep playoff runs and won a le? The ?
Exactly. Why is everyone wanting a major retool? It's not like the Spurs teams that kept losing in the 1st round every season. The only one that needs to really off is Enrique.
Agreed.
Timmy seems to be enjoying himself so far.
I agree I'd rather see the same team back than a major retool, but the issue with that is Tim & Manu will likely only play for 1 more year. PATFO are obviously planning beyond them, that's why they're so interested in LMA an other FA's. I think they believe that bringing back the same group will only do us good for one year, then we'd be stuck in limbo in 2016.
Aldridge is close to 30 and may arguably be in decline. I'd be fine trading Splitter, another big near 30 potentially declining, to get him but giving up Green is going way too far.
I agree. And I'd rather Manu retire than lose Green too. Just a lot of uncertainty right now. This is going to be a long offseason, tbh.
Bringing in LMA is fine. But Green absolutely has to be back too considering he's still pretty young and is a 3 & D player. You need a player like that to compete. Of course you take Aldridge if you can, but it's just a big gamble to go all in on a 30 year old big man who has a soft at ude sometimes on the court.
I agree. KEEP DANNY GREEN.
Other teams have gotten much better and we saw the signs this team wouldn't go all the way during the season. It's going to look different with all the free agents we have who may command more money, if Ginobili retires, things that need to be retooled. RC isn't going to stick with the same group because we won recently, he has to plan for the future. We don't even know if Tim is coming back which he most likely is. The team isn't going to be constructed in the offseason around a 39 year old player, they have to plan for future and start bring in new pieces for when Duncan retires tbh. Outside building the team around Leonard who would be 2nd with Duncan gone? Even if Parker played well I have my doubts we would have made it very far this year if we faced GSW.
Salary dump, like when the Spurs gave the Warriors a first round pick to take the last two years of Jefferson's deal.
What does PATFO mean?

Thanks, makes sense.
