Thinking about it again. Danny Green would be a 3 on most teams no?
lol Spurfan celebrating KA leaving while convincing themselves that Lonnie Walker has talent.
I'm looking forward to the meltdowns when people realize they are looking at a decade+ of of the Spurs assuming their rightful place as a ty small market team.

Too bad it’s a bad year for lottery picks.
LDN has lost a step so it wouldn't surprise me to see him as a SF next year.
I think not matching is a mistake. All the stat models say this is an underpayment. Kyle is young and the Spurs have no clear path to finding a better replacement. If Kawhi is back, DJM-Green-Kawhi-Kyle-LMA is a pretty sick defensive group. If Kawhi is gone, there's a good chance you're paying a little more ($10-$11M) for a guy like Covington who is a) older and b) just about as offensively limited. RoCo is the better and more willing shooter, but he lacks Kyle's ability to handle in the PnR and create for others. That said, there have been reports that the Spurs might not even want Covington on his current deal, so maybe the Spurs just don't value that type of role player particularly highly.
Kawhi ain’t coming back dude. It’s only a matter time before he’s traded.
I don’t think SA is too worried about perfect roster construction at the moment; like drafting they just want the best package for Kawhi regardless of position.
If I had to bet on Kawhi starting the season with one particular team, I'd still pick the Spurs. If I had to bet Spurs/not Spurs, I'd choose the latter. Either way, I'm fine with it--just really want a resolution to all this drama after what's felt like an eternity of speculation.
With or without Leonard, I think Kyle is an asset on that contract. I'd rather pay Anderson than Gay.
I doubt that. Position is of great importance too. You'd be a dumb not to think so.![]()
Is Hanga ruled out as a replacement?
Im pretty sure Gay can also play the 3
His buyout is relatively small, I think 900k of which the Spurs can contribute 700k
The real question is if the 3/9 they can offer after the Marco deal is enough to get him.
It wouldn't surprise me if he's making close to that already, he does start for one of the best teams in Euroleague
Yeah, I was hoping for about $5 million per season for KA. At that amount, you can match without factoring in roster fit.According to league sources, the Spurs were looking pay Anderson in the $5 million per season range, but the Grizzlies' offer was too steep to match.
But this offer from Memphis makes it a much tougher call. I think the bottom line is you either have to pick Anderson or Murray. In today's NBA, you can't win a playoff series if both of those guys are playing 30+ minutes.
who’s your favorite team?
Probably. He had season ending knee surgery. Maybe the full BAE could be enough.
If that's the case, maybe this is the year that Pop decides to ride out with a couple of rooks.
SA Girl Suicide watch officially begins..

Are you guys serious about replacing Anderson with Hanga, Metu or Milutinov ? Even Walker IV wouldn’t fill the hole he’ll leave. Loosing Kyle sucks, bottom line.
Fathead is a dime a dozen player. You can pick those at the recycle bin.![]()
When did KA become irreplaceable?
I think it's a bad move from the Spurs. And Anderson is one of my least favorite Spurs of the last 10 years.
But it's only a mid level deal. For someone as versatile as him, as healthy and dependable, it's a fair deal. He could play 3, 4, maybe some smallball 5 even. And while I've never bought the whole 'Kyle as point guard' narrative, he's a of a lot better equipped to do a lite-Manu role than Marco or Green.
It's only MLE, justified. It's not like the Kings offered him 3/33.
He would be worth his deal much more than Mills on his.
Spurs making a mistake.
Their wing depth and rotation of the future, Anderson and Simmons, lost for nothing
