Yes, but that's what I had already said. Melo can't just waive his kicker to be nice. He can only waive it to make salaries match, and even then, he can only waive the amount he needs to make it work, not a cent more.
He looks twice their ageYeah, but you are considering paying him top dollars, when his main advantage is athletism. Many africans footballer (round ball, not egg one) literaly stop playing at "age 30-32", when guy with proven age, are in their primes. Ibaka can be 27, can be 35. Not worth a risk on 4 year deal.
He moved to France at age 17. You don't know if this is legit, most likely not.
Just for lulz. Winner is 12.

Didn't know there was no change. Nevertheless Aldridge may be more willing to accept trades that would involve him waiving the trade kicker since one of his primary focuses is to be placed in a situation that will make him look good and increase his value for his next contract, not so much the money lost in the kicker. He wants out and he'll have to help to make that happen.
Aldridge for Porzingis,can this work?
Just stop, not happening especially with Phil gone. They want at least two top 5-ish picks anyway
Actually I think I was right, there's no restriction on a player waiving his kicker in the new CBA. Go to the 37:15 minute mark of the NBA Award, NYK, Phoenix Dunc'd On Podcast.
One has to wonder what Phil's replacement values though...how important is cap space to a team that loves to throw big money at over the hill vets? If we packaged lma and green plus a future 1st would they give him up if they could dump Noah plus lee?
I like the idea of Hill coming back (at the right price) since he appears to be a good fit, especially with the offense running through Kawhi. However, I'm not so sure he wants to come back to San Antonio. I know there's the whole "Pop's favorite player" thing, but the fact remains that we traded him. Yes, we got Kawhi and yes we did him right by sending him to Indy, but at the end of the day it's still a bruised ego.
Kawhi turning out to be a superstar might assuage that somewhat. Would you be mad if you were traded for Durant?
I get what you're saying, I just think people are jumping to conclusions assuming Hill would be head over heels to return. You're right, he understands now why the trade was made but it doesn't change the fact that it was a bit of a gamble at the time.
I agree
Well, if you're going to leak that you're considering it, you might as well fire him.
Indeed. Provided that they are right, you were right. I didn't know one way or the other. I was saying that the article you posted was talking about the current rule Thanks for bringing that to my attention, though.
More than welcome. Pretty sure that's the first and only time in my life I'll be able to point out something about the CBA to you.
Long ass article with different scenarios on the ways the Spurs could go in the free agency.

The Spurs Are the Sleeping Giant of Free Agency
We've been through more scenarios here on ST. This info is old.
Im not sure why CP3 would choose Houston... Less touches, no chance to rang, city in general. (lived there)
If America was a human, houston would be its butthole.
Might as well stay with the clipps and collect that bigger check.
All this talk will end now that PJ is fired. No way a smart GM trades their best, young player.
I think we've covered just about every scenario on SpursTalk so far.
