Shams: Spurs Finalizing Deal to Re-Sign Bryn Forbes

[Strategic]

What the ? Manu must be retiring or Mills is on the block. We have lost one guard and one combo foward. And drafted a guard, signed a guard, and have a guard ready for minutes.

I think Green will exclusively be backup 3 now.

A double would be progress.

Not sure why Spurs fan turned against Forbes.

Because he does not belong in the NBA.

[Chris]

I'm not sure why anyone turned towards him in the first place.

He's a great shooter and can move without the ball. His defense is trash, but I would expect that to improve. This team needs guards that can shoot. This is common consensus.

We all thought of that even with Bertans (I know, not a guard) and Forbes getting extended minutes last year. We need quality pieces and not DLeaguers. It’s amazing how this team is so far over the cap with the players they have.

2/14 isn't bad value

PATFO must have been reading my post and offered that to Bertans

I can see the philosophy about acquiring "quality pieces" considering the trends with superteams. How many years did Curry suck before he became a top 3 player?

[kobyz]

he has a jj re potential, much better play him than belli...

Pops clealry has a hardon for this kid

Bonner gave Forbes those incriminating videos of Pop, tbh.

Well, I meant I was glad someone found it funny, more so than understood it.

If I wasn't so depressed at PATFO confirming they have actually totally lost it, I would have laughed bro.

I hope those reports are full of , that's just giving Leonard away. I'd rather dump him on the DNP list next season until his agent can convince Philly that he would stay so they make a real offer.

The reported ask from PATFO is Saric, Covington and 3 firsts, (Philly's 2019 and 2021 picks and Miami's unprotected 2021 firsts) there could be some additional players/assets included too such as Bolden.

That is probably the absolute best Philly would/could do for a 1 year rental. There is no way to guarantee that Kawhi and Uncle Dennis would actually re-sign so they could lose him to the Lakers or Clippers next year.

Not sure why Spurs fan turned against Forbes.

Because he's not good. What an odd question.

So then hold onto Leonard another five months until he could legally sign an extension in Philly. No reason to give him away. Two extra picks in the 28-30 range are practically useless.

If they finish the contract fast, Bryn might be able to help us win the Summer League.

You think so? He wilted last year after actually playing well and somehow fouled out in SL. He missed a few shots and that confidence crumbled into the ground.

[ironmike1993]

This only makes sense if Mills gets traded. There's no need for two nidgets who can only shoot and do nothing else.

[ace3g]

Have Mills, White improving, sign Beli - why is Forbes needed? Another spot we could have opened up for a SF...

[loveforthegame]

Still not over keeping Forbes. Even if Mills and/or Green are traded.

[FireMicoHalili]

If White counts as a point guard, the Spurs have five shooting guards (Green, Belinelli, Forbes, Walker, and Paul; six if Patty counts). I don’t understand the team’s roster composition at this point if they acquire another shooting guard.

[rastaspur]

Absolutely disgusting, the Spurs were significantly worse whenever he was on the floor, he might be the worst defender I've ever seen in a Spurs uniform..not just lacking in physical tools, but he also has horrible instincts..

I'd understand the shooter argument if they didn't just acquire Belinelli..

Even assuming that there will be a trade for one of the non-Kawhi wings(which seems like a given, at this point), there will still be a logjam..the ONLY thing to look forward to this season is playing time for Walker/White(and Murray, I guess), but they keep adding players who will end up ahead of them on the depth chart..

He isnt del negro bad.

[Stabula]

Race for seis continues!

[Chomag]

No...
Wth is wrong with this FO

[BatManu20]

[kaji157]

I don't know if it's better for Patfo to do this or nothing.

[Strategic]

So Spurs would have to let KL walk for draft picks to get under salary cap? damn
