Bogut's contract ends the same time Iguodala's does in 2017. I'm guessing they'll let him walk or he'll take a paycut being an injury prone 33 year old by then.
^^^^ I agree 100%.

I bet the Spurs would shop Diaw over Splitter if they can. Much of Diaw's offense touches will now belong to LA. Having a guy like Splitter to guard an opposing big for quality minutes will be more valuable. However, Splitter's extra salary and Diaw's perceived work ethic issues probably means they will have to trade Splitter.
I just want the draft to be here already
If a trade is necessary, I hope we could get CJ McCollum from the blazers as well..
The good news is spurs have a sound fo and won't do something to see it get done. They have a plan, and although aggrivating and not exciting, has worked out well for spurs fans for a long time. Spurs need to stay true to what got them here, which they will, and have a little luck.
A few more weeks will tell all
Ginobli has absolutely nothing left. He's done a lot for the franchise and he has 4 rings, but he's done. Nothing wrong with being finished. You can't play sports forever.
Wait.. let me get this straight... you guys are going to sign a top name player when Duncan is now a TOSB?![]()
Who are you telling man, damn.
At the 38:24 mark, uploaded today.. he's sticking to it.
Splitter and Parker were not 100%, that's why the Spurs took the Clippers to 7 games and lost.
A healthy Spurs team could have made it the WCF and could have beaten the Warriors (the likely champions this year).
However, I would rather Ginobli orchestrate the offense than any of the other alternatives.... Green, Mills, Belinelli, Joseph.
This reminds me of a couple poverty kids wondering what Santa will bring them. Disappointment is in store.
Kids are going to be a little shocked around here when we come back with the same roster (not that there's too much wrong with that).
If Splitter and Parker can come back healthy and stay healthy, I'd keep the team as is over gutting it for LMA or MG. Obviously without Ayres and Bonner, tbh, but with an anderson thrown into the rotation.
People here think he signs with Dallas. I don't know how that works. Dirk and LMA play the same position. I see Duncan being able to play with LMA because Tim can play center. Dirk can't play center. Plus, Dallas just doesn't have that great a roster. I see the Spurs with more potential to become a winner than Dallas. But if LMA just wants lifestyle, then Dallas is better.
Maggette was rumored to sign or being close in 2008 as well I remember, then we end up with Mason after he bolts to the Clippers for a similar deal. I am not saying he was a huge max FA but at the time he was still a very good player and most wanted him on the team. I was dissapointed when he went to LAC because he was close to signing with SA they were all saying (Some reports even said he signed, that b.s.).
I think you might be a little mixed up on the details of the Spurs / Magette alleged near signing. The Spurs had the mid level exception to give out in contract. Magette signed a five year 50 million dollar deal with Golden State not the clippers. Not even close.
He picked Golden State for the money, not because he wouldn't want to play for the Spurs. He came here for our training camp a few years later, but retired before the season started.
people have been saying this same BULL the past 3 years.. "if parker can get healthy....". Why is it when he's playing bad in the playoffs(which is damn near every year since 2007) he's hurt? Just cut the bull . He's done. If he's so hurt, then why is he playing for France this summer?
Ugh, the past 3 years have included two trips to the finals.
Dirk said last month he's willing to come off the bench next season if it means they sign a premier big man. It would also be wise as it would prolong Dirk's career a bit.
Should be noted that he was renting out this house from Damon Stoudamire, and doesn't actually own it.
LMA has moved 3 times in 9 seasons in Portland. All rented houses apparently. This could very well be nothing, tbh.
Oh yeah you are right! He said it was about winning and he would sign for less I remember, then went and took the money and went to a bad team. That is what happened in that situation, one of those I want to win and will take less to win things and then runs to the glamerous city and for money like alot of those guys do. I can't say I blame them per se but don't say one thing and do the other when you know money is a huge factor.Someone recently just told me this as well, he said he had homes in SA and sold them too before! This means nothing if all that is true.
