No surprises there.

he just moved up a notch for me.
Actually increased my opinion of Pop a bit. It means he told Tony they were going to go young at the position. If it had been about money, then PATFO could have used that excuse, but it wasn't. My guess is that Pop suggested something similar to Manu as well. Everything about this off-season suggests Pop is comfortable going with Murray and White as the primary PGs. Gotta give this young group of guards a chance to prove the Spurs right. This change has been in the works for a few years now.
MVParker being alpha as usual
exactly!! Thank God for Parker's ego
Parker's offensive playbook :
Dribble dribble dribble
I think he meant "it was about the rolls".
just rember the les with tp as the engine
Same as Kemba, so they'll fit right in together!
Porker threads so fun.
Spot on.
Sounds like the Spurs gave him a fair offer considering his tenure, but told him that didn't include playing time.
Parker obviously feels like he still has more in the tank, and wants to show it. It remains to be seen if that is the truth.
As much as it sucks for the Big 3 era to be officially over, I'm glad to see guys like White, in particular, have their chance.
IOW, it was all about his ego... no surprises there...
Nothing wrong with his ego. Spurs fans have no reason to complain. It worked out.
Doubt it. Manu could play; Tony cannot. And Manu had already found his niche; nothing needed to change.
I'm sorry, but Manu has been a shadow of himself the last three or four seasons (look at his numbers) too. He looked absolutely washed at 35 during the 2012/13 season, but had a resurgent performances in the next season's Finals. Still, he never looked anywhere as good after the fact (IMHO).
It was time for the old dog to go under the porch and die whether the Manu circle jerk wants to admit it or not.
It is sad to see the Big 3 Era end yet I'm happy Tony left and Manu retired. The team had to push forward with the young guards and leave Manu/Tony in the past.

Porker quit the team. Traitor!
Best assist that TP has ever had for the Spurs tbh.
At least he cleared the air that he will not be back in SA to play his final season
the way i look at it the money set aside for the 3yr loyalty contract he received shouldve been patty mills, now we are stuck with mills stupid contract spurs cant even get rid off...
as for enrique...shouldve retired or left the team after that 5th ring, he was holding back the spurs or still trying to coatride whatever to another ring to get his individual 5 rings...
MVParker still carrying the franchise tbh
That was Parker's first (team side)loyalty contract. All the contracts before that was Parker giving the Spurs a discount. I am glad he did not resign with the Spurs on this one though. There is no room for him on our roster. Patty Mills is arguably not needed as well.
