Official 2016 Spurs Offseason Thread

[NASpurs]

I will never complain about Danny Green's contract.

[Obi Juan Kenobi]

One more thing - I saw an article saying that if Durant signs a 1-year deal this season, and then a max deal next year under the bigger cap, he'll make an extra $25M or something like that, overall. I'm too tired to go look for the exact number, but the amount of money it adds to his career earnings is insane.

Now... where is he most likely to sign a deal like that?

Hope its accurate...

Lakers making Mosgov their starting center giving him 65 million , or 14.5 % of next yrs cap ( not bad) when cap rises again to 108-110 million.

Agents & GMs would be irresponsible to not take that into consideration.

You have to (IMO) stop looking at just the math. I agree with your math, but you are basically by default defending every single contract handed out. So you think there are no bad contracts then essentially this off season?

He's not only not worth 15% of the cap, there's no reason to believe he will be a starting quality center for 4 years. Was anyone else offering 4 years for him? Noah, OK, he's a name and was very good once and has friends in NY. But Mozgov?

Whatever he decides is cool. I'm just happy he isn't going through a egotistical, self-absorbed retirement tour which has become the new norm

[NASpurs]

Like M4T was saying though, everyone knows the cap is jumping again next year. So these GM's are looking at what these contracts will be with regards to % of the cap next year, not this upcoming one. It's subtle, and doesn't mean these contracts are good, but it's important to remember that.

It's 25% of this year's cap but that's no biggie since they have a ton of money. Next year when the cap jumps that % will shrink.

But I hate Parson's and he's never proven to be worth any max, any time despite getting it twice (his team's hate him after and let him go).

How much is it supposed to go up next year?

Hopefully the cap goes up to $150 million. It's the only way some of these numbers make sense.

And not only that, is it going to be worse next year? All of this over paying?

It's projected to rise to $110M next year, but plateau (or possibly drop) after that.

DMC said Tim Duncan wasn't worth $6mil. Based on Noah and Mozgov he is worth $18+mil.

I believe for desperate teams, who don't have many options at all, it makes sense to spend 14.5% of cap on a starting center.

Are they overpaying to secure avg talent, yes. But it makes sense based on where the cap is going and their current desperate situation. Demand for a competent or even avg. center is high.

Edit: wrong thread

[Nathan89]

Some team will make an offer significantly better than us.

Hmmm OK, I guess it'll take a while for this to settle in and for us to adjust.

[TheGoldStandard]

He'll still come here. Unless GS comes calling

[tmtcsc]

These early agreements in the works are insane. Who the were the Lakers competing with in regards to Mozgov? Parsons gets a Max verbal from Portland? Beal making 125 Mil? Noah for 70 Mil? We are looking at some of the dumbest, most irresponsible franchises in the league right now. Everyone take note. , NONE of those players are worth that money next year when the cap goes up even more.

The Lakers are pathetic and Portland may lose Crabbe now. Their payroll can't afford the luxury of having Lillard, McCollum, Parsons AND Crabbe can it? WTF?

[Kindergarten Cop]

Quite possiby, but I certainly hope not. I just find it too strange for him NOT to end up in San Antonio considering the fit combined with all of the comments coming from his brother as the season came to a close.

[loveforthegame]

Spurs can't afford Gasol. That's why they're trying to secure Brouhaha and Lorbek instead.

[TheGoldStandard]

Quite possiby, but I certainly hope not. I just find it too strange for him NOT to end up in San Antonio considering the fit combined with all of the comments coming from his brother as the season came to a close.

It's just 4 years too late.

[tmtcsc]

They are rumored to be considering doing that. I think the better basketball fit is here. The Spurs aren't running as much and he'll get more playing time in San Antonio. Of course GS will be able to offer him more $$.

Maybe he signs a 1 year deal and gets paid better next year.

Portland going full small-ball: Lillard-McCollum-Parsons-Aminu-Plumlee

2 White Americans starting in 2016

Glad to see your bigoted racist ass hasn't change! Go suck a and choke on it and die.

I disagree, especially if Timmy is truly retiring. While it would have been nice to sign Gasol a few seasons ago, that would have put us out of the running or consideration for Aldridge.

[Nathan89]

He might get twice as much elsewhere.

[tmtcsc]

Quite possiby, but I certainly hope not. I just find it too strange for him NOT to end up in San Antonio considering the fit combined with all of the comments coming from his brother as the season came to a close.

I don't think his brother's opinion will have any impact whatsoever. It will come down to chance to win, play and get paid. Greater chance for him to play more here in San Antonio.

Wow! Was this really necessary?

I honestly don't think his brother is just tossing out that information to the media on his own, he's smarter than that. I think that it was something that Pau had honestly talked with him about and even told him that he didn't mind if he'd share it with the world.

Early estimates have the cap at around 105-109M I think so up another 10M I believe.
