    Would you be tired of this Indecisive At ude?

    Or

    Would you continue to remain patient and enable his insecurities.

    I would pick the former. SA has no time for this type of melodrama.

    At this point, with us and PHX making trades and FAs signing left and right, if he stays in Portland he should be investigated for tampering. Every day he drags this out is costing all teams involved, including whoever he signs for. If he truly wants to come here he should've announced 6 hours ago so we could move on.

    Seeing everyone interested made sense, but if his choice isn't made soon he's being a dumbass.

    I'd be shocked if the Spurs were caught unawares during any of this. Either he's a Spurs guy, and he goes out and has his fun then comes back, or he's not a Spurs guy, and they have a backup plan and are still in position to contend next year.

    I'm fine with him taking his time, except that with the rate this free agency is going, his tiptoeing could be the difference between a Kosta Koufous or David West versus Lavoy Allen or Tyler Hansborough.

    TBH every day that goes by is bad for the Spurs. SA is the obvious, no nonsense choice. PHX is the 'hold on, let me overthink this and make a mistake' choice. POR is the 'I wasn't that comfortable with anyone else' choice. All bode badly for Spurs as more time elapses.

    I agree with you here. Every day he remains indecisive, the lower the opportunities for the Spurs to build a team. I mean, his indecision already caused the Spurs to trade Splitter for nothing.

    Impatience is always a good plan. Always. Choosing a house, choosing investments, studying trends in any subject... waiting for clients to close on a sensitive and lucrative deal...

    Yes. Impatience has it's value.

    I'd just keep working the phone and checking in with RC and Pop and see where things were, pass along the info I'm getting from agents who expressed interest in San Antonio and line up phone stuff to go over what we have available once all the chips fall into place.

    Baynes was an insane offer, Detroit was going to offer 3/20 and we would have helped tie the handkerchief to the stick on his way out.

    Tiago was a causality of war, if you fail to prepare then you prepare to fail.

    I really liked TIago Splitter, thrilled he got a championship ring. His struggles are directly related to our performance last season. With the urgency of our historic quests right now, we can't risk a repeat of last season.

    No one will remove that risk, especially LMA. Injuries are part and parcel of high level sports. Nothing you can do about it except manage minutes.

    I don't care what LMA does. I just want Tim to enjoy his final season however that happens to be.

    This! I think Marc Stein and others have some concerns that LMA is not typical spur --too selfish. That's what he said in Zack Lowe's podcast.

    I call Robin Lopez and tell them I'm interested if Aldridge falls through. But I wait for Aldridge.

    The Spurs gave up something of value. The Suns unloaded the contracts of the ty Morris twin and Danny Granger and Reggie Bullock. It would be like the Spurs dumping overpaid versions of Baynes, Ayres, and Reggie Williams.

    Yeah but both teams' FA pursuits are effectively on pause until he gets off the pot. In between now and my example of Koufous now vs Lavoy Allen later, Lavoy Allen was re-signed. If he's going Spurs he's doing himself a disservice, putting a good team behind him will be harder every day he waits.

    Yes. Impatience has it's value.
    His patience has a steep opportunity cost for whoever loses out. Monroe, Millsap, Thad Young, both Lopez twins, Amir Johnson, Asik, Ed Davis, and T Robinson have all been courted and are with new teams or will be soon. If this dude doesn't sign he will have effectively sabotaged TD's last year. If I try and sell a client while ten others close deals with someone else, it isn't impatience to tell him to make a decision. He's the gem of this FA class, but if he goes elsewhere like it's looking he will, we've really ed ourselves courting and waiting for him.
