Report: Rudy Gay contacted by the Spurs

[rastaspur]

Hopefully it's a show-me deal where he proves he still has something left in the tank following the career-killing Achilles tear..otherwise, pretty risky for a career cancer coming off a major injury..

[SuperCam]

good move tbh anything better that trotting out Fathead

[FkLA]

If this happens then why bring back Simmons?

Small ball and/or Danny is gone.

Wow he tore his achilles? This night just keeps getting better.

Would assume something around the MLE. The Spurs should be planning on staying over the cap just so they have more flexibility.

[NASpurs]

Gasol didn't die for this.

[AFBlue]

The good news is he wouldn't be shut down by Kawhi.

[Mugen]

Seriously WTF

[HarlemHeat37]

IIRC, no player has successfully returned to form following a full Achilles tear, correct? Wes Matthews is a s of his former self, Kobe and Billups were finished, as was Elton Brand, etc..

And ya, I don't understand the fit with Simmons, at all, both need the ball in their hands and neither can shoot(Gay can't pass and isn't a playmaker, too)..I guess he might be gone, we'll see..

[Darius Bieber]

OKC gets George. Rockets get CP3. Spurs get Gay.

[AFBlue]

Also won't believe it until WojESPN confirms

[NASpurs]

"Sorry Pau, we ran out of money. Better luck next time."

[Atl Spur]

I'm thinking Buford's about to get another DUI, ain't no way he's making these moves sober.

Lol good one

Tbf hasn't Mathews atleast been respectable in Dallas after his tear? We all think of Kirby but he was old with tons of mileage on top of it.

[CP48107]

He's only 30 years old. Better than Iguodala, tbh.

Totally agree. Plus he is better offensively when healthy.

[ducks]

Depends on amount and deal could be a steal

[steeledl]

Everything is annoying me. What are we doing? Either you swing for the fences and try to compete next year with Paul George or ing wait.

[ginobilized]

Hmmm....interesting move

Gay has always been very tough for Kawhi to defend.
I hope this is for a reasonable contract.

Hope he is recovered

I'd rather they just keep Green but Simmons does give them more cap flexibility if they want to go that route. Risky though.

I'm sure they've felt all along that Simmons had priced himself out of SA. He's getting $15M/yr minimum.

Matthews was respectable, this past season, but significantly worse than he was prior to the tear..

[mexicanjunior]

His defense is ...horrible idea...

Sounds like they're waiting so why is it annoying you?

[jermaine]

I will not be getting a Gay jersey!
