    The Clips can't afford to give him more than the MLE, so it's not $12.3M/1.
    There are conflicting reports out there. Just heard he is getting 25 mil over 2 seasons with a player option on year 2

    I disagree.
    The reason wwe won´t loose Kawhi is because he has already gotten a ring THANKS to this franchise.
    Not for one second i think Kawhi can win a ring by himself in todays NBA, it was a product of the Big 3, Pop and the Franchise.
    Well yeah that helps too but strong relationships matter a bunch as well. Hayward just left Utah mainly bc of Brad Stevens.

    The Spurs revival was because of Kawhi. People should thank their lucky stars we traded for him.

    2014 was all Kawhi, Duncan, Manu, Patty and role players.

    The teodosic contract has been misreported. I thinks its a one year 12.3 mIL contract with a player option on the second year.

    So 12 mil a year and not 6.
    There are conflicting reports out there. Just heard he is getting 25 mil over 2 seasons with a player option on year 2
    It's $12.3 mil total.

    Jeff zilgitt retracted his statement of 2 years at 12 mil a year on twitter. So yeah, at the rate of 12.3 mIL over two seasons.

    If Memphis is really rebuilding, maybe instead of going after Gasol you go after Conley. He is earning something like 28 mill. Get a third team involved as it is unlikely Memphis would give up Conley to have an LMA/Marc Gasol frontline.

    ^^Of course if you trade for Conley, it only makes sense if you move Parker which is another reason it wouldn't happen.

    Doubtful. Probably slated for one of the two-way spots and will spend most of his time in Austin.

    Damn, what a bargain.
    Yep. And the geniuses here said there was no way he jumps to the NBA - guaranteed. And the real genius who said no one else ever heard of Teodosic.

    Not a good defender, but he's a PG who is really a PG. And at a good price, and shorter term.

    Hindsight once again. With Pau and Patty, the Spurs were trying to lock down two rotation guys while maximizing cap space. It's similar to what they did with Danny and Kawhi in 2015. Patty gave up potential flexibility to sign a long-term deal. He may have been on the market still, hoping for a Teodosic-level offer, or he could have been offered Re 's deal.

    Moving on from Patty and getting rid of Tony would have forced the Spurs to be aggressive in pursuing free-agent PGs this summer. So the talk about these late deals makes little sense, as the Spurs would have been one of those teams fighting to give Lowry $100 Million or Hill $25 Million a year.

    The Spurs did four things to address the cap at the end of last season: They got Pau to opt out, gaining several million bucks in potential room; They agreed on a new contract with Mills, locking in a rotation PG for $6.8 Million; they set up a trade with Green; and they set up a trade with LMA. Those four things combine to a max slot, Mills and Pau. Rather than getting too far down the hole the adjust if something went wrong (which is did), they managed to preserve all of next year's space other than Mills' tradeable contract.

    The contract they give Pau will be the most interesting thing to watch in terms of their pivot plan at this point.
    I should be saying this to you, not the other way around. That you think Mills getting a role-player contract is the same as those other deals shows how far out of touch you are.
    Chinook, how is it hindsight or asking Spurs to know the future when there have been people on this board who have been anti-Mills for months? Who have been anti-2007 summer plans for months? Who have been either pro-change (Paul, Hill, Holiday, anyone else) for months, who have been pro-capspace (just let the young guys play and roll it over!) for months?

    And I don't know why you think retelling what's happened is some sort of compelling argument.

    "See, what the Spurs wanted to do was re-sign Mills and Pau and so that's what they did!"

    It's obvious what they've done, we can all see and read what they've done, people are discussing the merits of it. When you come in with your "hindsight" and "know the future" and "out of touch" schtick, you are trying to shut down discussion of ideas, consequences, the future, and possibilities instead of actually making an argument.

Who have been either pro-change (Paul, Hill, Holiday, anyone else) for months, who have been pro-capspace (just let the young guys play and roll it over!) for months?
    Who gives a flying if people here were anti-Mills or not? The Spurs had no idea what the PG market was going to look like and really couldn't wait to find out. They knew they could get Mills for $6.8 Million and built their plan around that. ing about what Hill and Tedosic are marking is total hindsight-driven pieces of bull . It has nothing to do with whether you wanted Mills back or not. I didn't want him back, especially not at 12:01, but I get it. There were even scenarios where I would have been fine with bringing Patty back, but that's not the point. Wanting Teague, Lowry, Paul or Hill instead of Patty is fine. ing about the Spurs not knowing Hill's market was going to evaporate isn't.

    And I don't know why you think retelling what's happened is some sort of compelling argument.

    "See, what the Spurs wanted to do was re-sign Mills and Pau and so that's what they did!"
    Your issue is you think I'm defending re-signing Mills in and of itself. I'm not. Especially after drafting White, I don't believe they needed to secure Patty if their plan was to go after Paul. But folks like you seem to fundamentally not understand what the Spurs did and why. And you all want to act like the Spurs would have been waiting patiently on 7/4 with no PGs on the roster besides Murray and trying to leverage players into signing cheap deals. That was not going to be the case.

    It's obvious what they've done, we can all see and read what they've done, people are discussing the merits of it. When you come in with your "hindsight" and "know the future" and "out of touch" schtick, you are trying to shut down discussion of ideas, consequences, the future, and possibilities instead of actually making an argument.
    Lol, if you think the ing about Patty and the unreasonable comparisons to contracts like Hill and Tedosic is a discussion, you must talk about very little. It's just complaining over and over again. I have done nothing to stop it. Me rejecting what I believe is unreasonable criticism doesn't prevent you from typing it (obviously). That the Spurs felt like keeping Mills was a priority is definitely questionable. But why they gave him a deal at 12:01 is not. If you accept the first argument, you have no reason to question the second. IF you reject the first, the second is irrelevant.
