tf are these people on reddit smoking

I think that the salary mentioned there was towards Simmons.

You're right, although i think that may be a low number. I know there is a restriction on how much he can be offered by i would imagine some team will offer it to him and spurs will probably match it

He's subject to Gilbert Arenas Rule so 8M or so sounds about right.

[Joseph Kony]

I could have sworn the max he could get was like 10-12 million per? if that's the case i definitely see someone offering it to him and him taking it, being that this is his first chance to get a real contract

Is it that low for Simmons? Well they'll match that, unless they really have a whale on the line. If someone tenders an offer, the Spurs only have a couple of days to match or pass, right?

[sasaint]

Would be the death offense as well

Maybe not a bad offense at all if you replace "X" with a very good offensive-minded PF. Hmm...Bertans?

72 hours I thought. But I am probably wrong.

[sasaint]

Apo's been buying at a discount so long, he thinks it happens everywhere.

Oh, man. How did you come up with that?

[Floyd Pacquiao]

George hill is an alright defender, but does anyone remember him getting destroyed by Nash, Paul etc.

Getting the Danny Green special, then?

[gambit1990]

hill being lanky doesn't automatically make him a great defender.

I'd pay George hill no more than 13 mill a year. That dude just seems mediocre as fucc to me

[baseline bum]

Hill
Green
Leonard
X
Dedmon

This would be the death defense. Especially if we trade LaMarcus for a defensive oriented PF LOL

Death in the sense that every opposing point guard would run him through screens for wide open shots and paths into the lane? Hill was like point guard version of Derek Anderson on defense when he was here. No thanks, Utah can keep him.

He'd be a decent sixth man and that's it. That's why they traded him the first time.

Utah looks like it is already moving on. GHill's value may be dropping, but I do not believe it will drop all the way to a reasonable level for a sixth man.

Hill
Green

We would give up 85 points a game and score about 70

[Spurtacular]

I liked GH back in the day. But I never thought it was a great idea for him to come back. I hope he proves me wrong.

[Taking it to the Hole]

No one is coming to the Spurs this offseason. PATFO are going to give overpay Pau on a long term contract. They are going to roll with a sop re and rookie point guard until TP heals, Green won't be traded, and they are keeping a disgruntled Aldridge. They probably will lose Simmons, Mills, and Lee in free agency. Oh, and Manu will come back for one more year taking more than the vet minimum as salary and eating whatever left we have of our cap space. So this is shaping up to be a typical Spurs summer.

They arent signing him.

[SAGirl]

I think it's 48 hours, chinook can confirm or correct me if I am wrong.
Spurs also don't have to subject him to Arenas (leaving a potential ballon overpayment when Kawhi is due his supermax which wouldn't be wise)... they can choose to pay him with cap if they have it i believe... the question is will they have it. maybe their big FA signing is JSimms.

And they will still finish second in the West, around 60 games, and people will still and complain because we didnt sign a CP3 or Sisqo Hill who wouldnt have improved us much more than what we would have won without them.

you are being cynical.

[Leetonidas]

The spurs have actually made pretty solid moves every summer for the last few years. Too many people are expecting a home run.

[steeledl]

We already were close, if not there. No reason the things that were working in game 1 wouldn't continue to work. It's not like we shot 90% or something. We could've played even better.

You obviously believe we are a lot closer to competing with the Warriors over a 7 game series than I or most NBA fans. From where I stand, we'd have got game 1 and maybe one more. It wouldnt have been a close series. Obviously I'd rather you be right.

Hoping more than expecting. There has never been such a disparity in the top team and the 2nd best team and a home run is what we needed to close the gap. Given that landscape, I just want to resign Simmons and roll this roster out next year. Get as much as you can for LMA during the season and go from there. I know everyone wants to win now but that isn't really a realistic option for the upcoming year.

Paul George is probably the only guy I would have went for the home run with and then prayed we could resign him.
