He seems to be dismissing the entire notion though. He's making it seem like moving Tiago won't be enough & they will need Green's 7M cap hold gone too
Do you happen to know where I can find these figures?

The Portland offense was a cesspool of ISO ball with poor management of minutes. He's clearly not a #1 option but given the ball movement that can be generated by the Spurs he's a huge upgrade.
Well Manu coming back may well end up meaning no more Green unless Ginobili gets the room exception. Manu's next contract may end up being as damaging as Parker's is now.
Bye manu
I just threw up. I love Manu but it's time to hang it up.
Can you imagine the storm here if Manu decides to return and costs the Spurs Danny Green?
So Splitter has to move and Green walk for us to sign LMA? that. I'm telling you guys LMA isn't worth it. Dude is a choker and mentally soft.
I wouldn't mind manu at the vet min.
Spurs guaranteed salaries sit at 34 million currently + 57 million in cap holds = 91 million. 91 million is our current cap number.
Renounce everyone but Green and Kawhi, and you're left with 34 million (guaranteed salaries) + 15 million (cap holds for Green and Kawhi) = 49 million.
There are cap holds for empty rosters spots for minimum salary players at 0.5 million each (times 5 roster spots) + 1 million for 1st round pick. That leaves the total cap number at 52.5 million for 13 roster spots.
Trade Splitter's 8.5 million deal for chips, and that number drops to 44 million.
Since the cap is at 67 million, that leaves 23 million left to pay Aldridge, Duncan, & Ginobili. If Aldridge can take a backloaded deal starting at 18 million or so, that leaves enough to maybe pay Duncan & Ginobili more than minimum deals.
Then we can use Green's and Kawhi's bird rights and sign them for whatever. Fill out the roster with draft picks and minimum players.
1 mediocre year to say farewell for possibly 3 solid seasons with a 3&D in his prime
you mother er. i just coughed soda all over my new monitor.
and then he hurts himself
Yeah Manu is def the forgotten wild card here. We all thought he'd take less than what he ended up getting on his last contract. If he ends up costing the Spurs Green or LMA then he needs the Porky treatment next season no doubt.....
I don't think he'll take anything close to the min. here, det ElNono is ruthless tbh.....
He's not as great as some Spurfan are making him out to be, but he's also not as bad you're making him out to be, either. Realistically, he's somewhere in the middle. Athletic big men who average 23 & 10 on 50% shooting don't grow on trees. If you have an opportunity to get one, particularly when you're in the position the Spurs are in with their best player set to retire in a year who happens to play the same position, you try really hard to do so.
The excitement on this board also has a lot to do with the fact that a "big name Free Agent" appears to be interested in the Spurs, and it appears it isn't just a rumor this time. This rarely happens to the Spurs. The last two times it did, Jason Kidd and Jermaine O'Neal ended up going elsewhere, so it really hasn't happened to this franchise in a very long time, if ever. Add in the natural excitement because it's the offseason + Draft Day, and people will get a little carried away. It's natural, and you really can't blame Spurfan, tbh.

What a way to go out on your last season as a Spur to them over royally from improving down the line.

That's a given, but yeah, it would definitely make the situation worse.
ing nono better work his mexican magic and convince manu to sign for the min

room exception would net manu 2.8 mil for this following season. he made 7 and 7.5 the last 2 seasons
2.8mil to play 20mins a night for 60-65 games while having a bunch of overweight fellow countrymen yelling your name sounds like a sweet deal tbh.
No way Manu is signing for the minimum at 37 years old imo. To put his body through the rigor of another season, he's going to want to get paid a lot of money to do so, unfortunately.
Can't forget the 4 turnovers per game all in the 4th quarter.
