He is now the voice of the Aggies.

Thank God. Just another reason for Aggiefan to kill themselves.
Never heard the guy, but he has to be an improvement over Monaco.
Mavs going old school

Free agent guard Devin Harris is in strong talks on one-year deal with the Dallas Mavericks, league sources tell Yahoo. Sides hopeful to finalize deal in next day.
Spurs and Mavs will surprise this year
Pop mentoring Derozan,
And Carlisle mentoring Doncic
COULD BE VERY INTERESTING......
Lets not forget this:
Ten years ago I really liked Devin.
C.J. Williams just got cut from the clippers, would be a nice grab, two guard in the mold of josh heart...
Wouldn't Spurs have like 198 2 guards though?
Clint Capela, Rockets Agree to Reported 5-Year, $90M Contract

Kinda decent contract considering Gasol is $16M.
Great deal for Houston.
Morey has issues but he operates in s cutthroat manner that I wish the Spurs would.
When he has restricted rights on guys, he doesn't let them go to be nice, he screws them over.
While the Spurs are happy to lay down and take off the QO to Cory Joseph and Jonathan Simmons, Morey made Donatas sit, then when he finally got an offer sheet with incentives, Morey was able to match only the base but not the incentives causing Donatas to not immediately report for a physical the Rockets could have waived, Morey cancelled and rescinded.
Poof, $20+ million dollars of Donatas' career earnings disappeared. He'll never get that money back and is now forced to go to China
Spurs FO would have fallen all over themselves trying to help Donatas go to another team to get paid.
I feel you, but get back to me on Morey when he's won at least one single championship.
Just one.
Um, those aren't good things.
Somewhat good news for the Spurs, if Houston starts paying tons of luxury tax and the Spurs avoid it, it will help offset that $5M they sent out in the Number 2 trade.
I fail to see how this is good for the short term and especially long term. I wouldn't want the Spurs to be like that.
Your missing the point man. Spurs aren't Starbucks or Mcdonalds... Houston is a big market team. They'll get players regardless. The part about the Spurs that they try to sell is likened to a mom a pop shop that's basically a hole in the wall but the food is darn good. It looks like crap on the outside but on the inside it's homey and welcoming. Spurs sell class and a family environment. As close to family as a business can be. You can make a career here. There's a certain level of stability even for role players. Just look at Bonner, Green or even Mills. There's a reason players have nothing but good things to say. They have a good reputation. Your start playing hardball with players then honestly put your self in their position, why the play in San Antonio. Pop is tough and a lot of players can't accept old school coaching anymore. See Woj Pod with Jarred Dudley... Money ain't bringing people here. Small market teams are like small business America. You learn what makes a small business successful in this day in age and you'll know what I'm talking about.
Your desires are not moral nor are they successful in this market.
Spurs will have to ride out this Warriors era, which is coming to an end soon. I have been saying all along that Durant leaves next season. Klay is a free agent next season and Green the next. I still think they will keep Klay and Green but it will cost them and they will be losing Iggy. The Rockets are going all in the next season. It's going to cost them a lot to fall short.
Durant will leave the Warriors... It's only a matter of time. His rep is putrid amongst anyone who knows anything about the game. He's a walking joke. He's been clearly getting more thin skinned about it too. The Warriors also weren't sure if he'd resign... One maybe two more years and he'll leave. Just needs an ideal situation. It's the only way he'll save face. Then the league will have a chance again.
Just playing the devils advocate. Durant has real estate ventures in the Bay Area. With supposedly 3rd ring this year and potentially more, why leave? Klay is not a franchise player, neither is Green, but great role players collecting rings, and could possibly be the greatest team ever assembled to be recorded not only in basketball but sports. I’m not a Dubs fan, ing hate Durant weak ass, and Kawhi quitting on Spurs who could’ve derailed Dubs with maybe another star signing. But why leave? Because of money? Greed? The only thing is Curry not enjoying that MVP status anymore, but 4, 5, 6 straight champs? And very possible unless they implode or Kawhi teams-up with AD, Butler and Kyrie. Dubs in cruise control until some other team shoot them down.
