It's negative to outline likely scenarios? None of those ideas make any sense.
Otto and Jrue aren't likely to bolt.
We can offer nothing to Indiana and, if we do, Boston can come in and make a much better offer.
Others are suggesting silly moves like signing a declining Hill or some other non-factors.
There are other scenarios others have posted that I like much better and/or seem relatively likelier. I'm not always "negative".![]()

If an idea makes sense, I'll discuss it. If it's ridiculous, I'll shut it down. Most takes here today have been the latter, tbh.
Not true. Paul was a free agent at midnight tonight. He agreed to opt in so they could get something for him.
George is under control till the end of next season. You'll need to pony up more to get him.
Do you know me to post ridiculous things? Discussing Jrue is not ridiculous. Plenty of others have written about Jrue to other places. Will it happen? Who knows, but its not ridiculous at al.
It'll be more if he's definitely going to sign. I suppose any team that makes the trade will be very confident that he'll sign though. My comment is therefore not very relevant and also incorrect because it won't play out in reality.
George be "under control" for another year doesn't really matter though when you know he's going to leave.
Wouldn't be a very good one either. To make it in this league as a backup or part of a rotation, you need to have at least one above-average "carrying tool" that you can bring to the table every night. Ben McLemore's 38% 3-point shooting last season isn't nearly high enough to offset the fact that he brings nothing else to the table offensively, and is an underachieving defender (and player overall) with an indifferent at ude. Below-average players on bad teams are not what perennial contenders are looking to import to their roster.
The Jrue part in particular wasn't ridiculous, but I still don't think he leaves NO. And, from what I hear, he doesn't want to.
That's all I said.
Nah, you've been in full Pissing-In-Wheaties mode today.
I don't blame you.
So no to Paul George.
No to George Hill.
No to Jrue.
No to CP3.
I mean, either because you think it's ridiculous (which is debatable) or because you don't want the player (like Hill) you have basically poo-poo'd everything today
You're normally not like that - just thought CP3 to HOU put you in a bad mood or something
Just stating my opinions. Obviously, I'd love for scenarios like Jrue and others to come true, but I just don't see it. Also, I hate to be overly-optimistic as to not set myself up for disappointment.
It's how I cope, okay?![]()
Like I said, I don't blame you.
I didn't say no to CP3? I wanted him here. Hill is the only one I've been "overly negative" about for several reasons. I'll give you that.
I wouldn't mind him for 14... nothing over. But that's me probably being unreasonable.
These are confusing and perplexing times. My thought process and ideas have been changing with the wind.
Just need to forget about all this until July 1 rolls around and then slowly the ducks will be put in a row and this will sort itself out.
Never been this worried and nervous during an offseason. It's not a good look.
The thing is it's normal. We were just used to having an anchor in Tim and no need to worry. This is what normal NBA teams are like.
Plus, SA still in good shape, but ya, things change fast in today's nba. Much of the stuff we all discuss is viable but variables change so quickly.
I think it's a zero chance he signs at that price. I hope that can happen and he'd definitely be worth throwing that figure at him.
It's time to break out the Grav Labs Hookah, boss. Time to melt into our furniture. I got some MST3K on (Godzilla Vs Megalon episode)... I'm ready.
What a ty off-season for the Spurs. Damn can't get nobody![]()
Yeah... I figured I was being unreasonable on that.
So what's the hope now hill and something else right? We need a. Playmaker
Off-season ain't over bud. Or is it? Am I wrong? Where the am I? Why do I have handcuffs on one wrist?
That's what I'm thinking and exactly why I don't want him. I'd be shocked if Hill comes at any less than $20 Mill.
free agency hasn't even started yet, we aren't aware of what the spurs FO's plans are and we already have some posters declaring the off season a disaster. classic ST.
We have been spoiled as fans and honestly it's turned alot of us into whiny es who expect greatness perpetually.
