    You know why but I’ll give you some slack because when your not acting like a little you are actually a very good poster. Keep the childish out of this forum your should be better then that and you can add so much more to this forum. Peace Out.

    Wonder if their pursuit of James is tied to their negotiations with Leonard. I've been thinking about ways to make Kawhi's contract more manageable for a team trying to compete, and having the DPE take place starting in 2020 makes the most sense. To save everyone the trouble, that puts Leonard at a projected $199M/5 deal rather than $219M/5 deal. $20 Million isn't a ton to give up when considering the increased exposure he'd get, but the new timing would allow the Spurs to skirt the tax for years, with LMA's peak APY still occurring when Kawhi's APY is low and then dropping off when the DPE money kicks in. Kawhi signing such a contract could give the Spurs the angle they need to get James to sign a smaller extension (like $110M/3), which actually leaves them room to re-up Anderson and Bertans or use the MLE.
    To be honest he needs to refun that 19 millions dollars he got paid last year to play in New York.

    That's his qualifying offer, we don't know his market rate, but in an ordinary market he's worth at least Danny green money
    Bull dude is a zero on offense.

    Bertans and Forbes blow and would not be missed. Anderson is ok if not too expensive.
    Add Parker, Joffrey, Anderson, Green, and Paul to that list.

    Kyle is fine on a reasonable contract and a good regular season minutes-eater tbh. He’s just awful against Golden State (and any other long, athletic team).

    I don't see Lebron taking a paycut for any team. I don't know about Kawhi taking a paycut to get a better roster. But Lebron has already said he won't play for less than market value and the way he made the Cavs spend for him to re-sign with them turned that franchise into a wreck. That lone championship is costing them a fortune, especially if Lebron (and his related ticket sales and tv market money) leaves Cavs again.

    He's good because he can guard multiple positions. He's bad because he can't spread the floor due to his unreliable jump shot.

    Yeah James got betrayed by Mickey Arison when he, Bosh, and Wade took paycuts to get Mike Miller signed and then the owner amnestied him entering the 2013-14 season. Miller was so desperately needed by that Heat team, especially when Chalmers went into that huge slump in the Finals. I think he'd still be in Miami had Arison not decided to just pocket that paycut their big three took. James is never taking a single cent paycut again.

    At those who ever doubted their interest in Anderson. I know this organization like the back of my hand and I've long said the only way he leaves is, if one of the teams with significant cap space, that's not projected to be big game hunting makes an exorbitant offer (something like 4/$40M). Short of that, expect something like a 3-4 years, $6-8M per year extension.

    I'll be a mistake though. He's soft, can't/won't shoot 3s with an ounce of regularity and doesn't offer near enough shot creation/play making to be ball dominant. Worse, it'll likely rule out an Evans pursuit, which should be their number one (realistic) external priority.

    In fact, if, as I suspect, they select a 3 and D wing whose NBA ready or close, it'll likely rule out them utilizing the MLE altogether (save for maybe dipping into it to sign Milutinov).

    Look for Anderson-White (if Ginobili retires)-Parker to be the backup perimeter rotation next season and going forward, the 18th pick to become the starting SG, with Mills moving into Parker's role.

    They are low priority. But outside of Patty Mills and maybe Kawhi assuming he re-signs, who will be able to shoot threes?
    One thing is to shoot threes and the other to actually make them. Which that fat marsupial does not.

    You left the Spurs biggest investment in their guard rotation out. Murray? Mills will likely stay starting sg. 3 and d player will replace Green or *gulp* KL. KA is fair at 6 mill. 8 mill is pushing it for me.

    The clear inference was: Leonard-Mills-Murray will be the starting perimeter players. Beyond next season, Leonard-18th pick-Murray are likely to be, with Anderson-White-Mills backing up.

    If this happens I don’t know what I’m going to do tbh.

    at the 18th pick being our starting SG. The average 18th pick in the draft is barely a rotation player.

    As an aside, Bertans is the most likely RFA to not return. With Gasol likely to continue on generally starting alongside Aldridge and Gay and Anderson likely to re-sign, I'll be difficult to come by more than spot minutes.

    He could garner interest from a team(s) with significant cap space. The Nets specifically are looking for a stretch four. Hopefully Marks lays off, considering he only has his job because of his prior affiliation with the Spurs. If not, Babbitt or Casspi could be an inexpensive replacement.



    at the 18th pick being our starting SG. The average 18th pick in the draft is barely a rotation player.

    The previous and current starting SG, were picked 46th and 55th respectively in '09.

    Obviously, that's rare, but you clearly don't know much about the draft. There's a good possibility of them drafting an older, projected 3 and D type. I'm not saying they'll definitely develop into a legit starter, just that projecting ahead that appears to be the plan. There's no other rational way to make sense of the back court long term.

    Similar to Murray at PG. He's not a legit starter at this point, but he was the 29th pick and it took them all of a year and a half for them to give him the starting job over a future Hall-of-Famer. It shouldn't be difficult to envision them doing so with an 18th pick when a bench player is the current starting SG.

    Okay, TD 21, allow me to drop some truth bombs on you. Let’s look at all 18th picks since the 2010 draft.

    2010 - Eric Bledsoe (good player)
    2011 - Chris Singleton (scrub, in Europe)
    2012 - Terrence Jones (G-League scrub )
    2013 - Shane Larkin (okay backup PG)
    2014 - Tyler Ennis (lousy, injury prone backup SG)
    2015 - Sam Decker (scrubby backup SF)
    2016 - Henry Ellenson (scrub, backup PF)
    2017 - T.J. Leaf (scrubby backup PF, granted he’s young)

    at banking on our 18th selection being our starting SG next year. Only one of those players is a starter, and Bledsoe is arguably a team cancer.

    Kyle’s actually done better against Golden State than Poop’s bunch of useless midgets.

    Murray's playing time was accelerated by TP's horrific injury. Only KL really broke through as a rookie since Dejuan Blair. Nobody is saying it's not possible but history of the Spurs the playing time is earned through a patient grooming process unless another KL type steal happens in the draft. Honestly I hope Derrick White supplants Mills as the starting sg/pg that should compliment well with Murray. Mills and an athletic wing will better fit off the bench. Just my 2 cents.

    White's sample size in "the show" is minuscule - even by Spurs' rookie standards. Even so, I really like what I have seen - especially in his PG mentality/skill (not to mention his shooting touch). So, in my Spurs fantasy universe he is the starting PG. That being so, Murray is no SG to pair with White. Nor do I want the ball in Murray's hands as a nominal PG, taking it out of White's. For me, the bottom line is the Spurs have an over-abundance of bodies and an dearth of skill at PG. I would like to see Murray in a package with Pau to bring back a decent rotation player.
