ESPN: Spurs Emerging as Favorites to Sign Kevin Martin

[SPURt]

Everyone watching Dubs vs Thunderefs

Yep, Westbrook shooting like butt and turnovers everywhere. OKC in a serious slump.

Please. That game ended as soon as Mo Speights started hitting treys.

Spurs dropping Butler over Bonner to get KMart would be the worst move in the history of the front office. Does Bonner have pics of Pop doing a line of coke off R.C.'s ass or something?

This should be a no brainer for the front office. You cut Bonehead, sign him to a front office or bench gig, and bring in KMart.

The "corporate knowledge" thing might be referring to skeletons in the closet.

Bonner knows Pop likes a pinky in the ass while getting blown. Don't even want to know how Bonner found out.

Awesome.

[DenialTwist]

I really hope they don't cut Butler just to keep Bonner. Butler is always ready to play aka Mr. Reliable and he is great for spacing. We don't need to worry about Bonner injuring his calf every time he attempts a three.

Seeing that he left 4m on the table, means he thinks he'll get a long term deal to offset some of that somewhere else.

Maybe he's looking for somewhere that can assure him years in addition to money? Not sure the Spurs would commit to him after their year.

I don't think it means that at all. He just feels like he can get a few million next season, and he's probably right.

This could be problematic because he's making an assumption that he's going to get playoff minutes.

Mavs and OKC rosters have a lot of minutes available.

I can't see the same for the Spurs unless Manu is unavailable.

Look at this roster:

Parker/Mills/Miller
Green/Manu/Simmons <-- Martin
Leonard/Anderson/Butler
Aldridge/Diaw
Duncan/West/Boban

To make it worse, Spurs are playing with lineups with both Leonard and Anderson on the court. The deck is full.

So Spurs really have a problem making a compe ive offer for Martin. I currently just don't see it unless Martin bites the bullet and wants to get the ring.

What Chinook said. He really left nothing on the table. He had a player option that he was threatening to exercise, so they paid him half of what he would have gotten for playing next year in Minny just to go away. He got FREE money, and won't need much to sign next year.

I agree that Bonner is the logical cut, but to say that dropping 36 year old Rasual Butler would be the worst move in the history of the front office, might be a bit of an over statement.

Heard he signed with the Tropics tbh. Can anyone confirm?

Wojtek tweeted that earlier but took it down. False alarm I suppose.

Can't believe I'm (partially) wasting my Friday night to see if we get this scrub. Sign with SOMEONE Kevin...

It almost feels like he's dragging this out "The Decision" style, too.

[Ron Swanson]

He's waiting for a time slot on ESPN to announce where he's signing. It's called "Kevin: The Choice". Stay tuned.

Must be a tough decision. Almost no word.
