Marc Stein: Spurs are #1 on LaMarcus Aldridge's list

How'd they do that lunch with zero media leaks? Lakers practically had someone in the room. And Riles...

Then he's an idiot, and not Spur quality.

Then he is not. How is he not Spurs material though because he is taking his time? Guess TD is not either because of 01???

I don't know how LA could choose the Suns over a franchise like the Spurs, especially when they traded Splitter and did everything they could to sign him. Of course it's the NBA, so if he signs with the Suns or Lakers, it will be for his own reasons. I don't know why he is dragging this out, sign a 2 year deal with Spurs and be happy.

What's there to leak?

CIA Pop...

I know but then he parades on the street with a freakin bottle and no one picks it up???

Pop wouldn't let him order steak because it was too expensive.

Thankfully, Chumpdumper has managed to avoid this thread so far.

It would be pushing 250 if Chump started doing his thing.

[Obstructed_View]

Footwork... lots and lots of footwork.

For his sake, I hope he makes us regret the Spurs' letting him go, but I'm not overly optimistic.

I think he eventually signs with the Spurs but he is just enjoying half the teams in the league persuing him and kissing his ass.

Tbh, I have been wondering the same thing...

Dont worry, I'm doing all I can to keep the worlds worst ST poster a.k.a. chump occupied and distracted in The Club.

Just throwing some names out there.. Alan Anderson, Wayne Ellington, Sonny Weems, Goudelock, Ben Gorden (LOL), Jimmer.. Just some bodies at SG to fill in roster spots and not flashy names to warrant a high price tag.

Or Maybe a Luke Babbitt or Glen Robinson III as SF..

[ninjaskrzypek]

So. Close. To. 200.

SVG is too skiddish I think to take the good with the bad that he will bring. I think he'll be shopped after this season.

Spurs were rumored to be interested in Wellington at the beginning of free agency. My God that feels like weeks ago.

If he can deal with LA and that fest he would do fine coming off the bench for a few minutes here and there.. Seems like a solid pro, do what he's told

[Beaverfuzz]

There may not have been a bigger defender of Splitter over the years than me, and I have had to reluctantly come around to that conclusion. As Duncan ages, the ability to just eat up minutes for him becomes more important. There are guys in the league that set good screens and can do enough good things to fill in gaps for the team that they'll have a good rotation, plus they'll be able to count on them to fill up minutes.

But in order to do that, you have to remain healthy to be on the court.

[silverblackfan]

Commenting just for the 200

[littlecoyotecoin]

Splitter when healthy was the difference between first round losses and finals contention.

He is being severely underated.

I was a Tiago fan, too. But "when healthy" was becoming a perpetual problem.

That was some time ago..
