What a joke. Season is over before it even began.
Another year of mediocrity while getting a high teen/low 20th pick. Woooooooooo!

Holy ....
I'm speechless... worst offseason ever
let's try to sum up
in the minus
- kiwi
- danny
- tony
- manu
- walker
- murray
- mills and gasoft still there
and the +
- gay back 100%
- derozan
White is gonna shine
Whatcha mean?! This is where 50 Mills comes to save us! I mean, this is why he makes the big bucks right? Because he is a great, legitimate PG and not because of culture right?
Really though, Spurs are ed. The team has no legitimate point guard.

now we have to wait for the team to get the timetable for the return but can't see how it wouldn't be anything less than 6-9 months.
Terrible news
Obviously sucks. No getting around that.
Silver linings though?
-White, Mills, or Forbes starting for Murray makes it much easier to play DeRozan and Gay together at the wings. If Gasol can take threes at a decent clip, the spacing is actually quite nice. I'd say Forbes should start with DeRozan, Gay, Aldridge and Gasol. Bench should be Mills, White, Belinelli, Bertans and Poeltl.
-Walker may well get a legit chance at a rotation spot if he can get back into form. As far as I can tell, the rotation is filled now, there is no one able come in if someone misses games. Walker should be back in December or January, two months were the team is in full grind mode. If he can start getting minutes going into the RRT, he'll likely have a spot in the rotation going forward.
-The tea leaves suggest PATFO is looking at 2020 as another possible summer to use cap space. Like with Leonard and Green in 2015, PATFO may want to use DeJounte's cap hold to sign other guys before using Bird Rights to go over the cap. But Murray's injury provides a good opportunity to try to lock in up cheaply on an extension. Rich Paul is DeJounte's agent, and I don't think he would have extended for anything less than the max before this. Unless he showed out this year, he wasn't worth that. Maybe now that he missed out, they'll be more inclined to come to the table on something like $72M/4? The alternative is Murray being in full contract-year mode. That doesn't sound horrible.
this .
I'd just declare him out for the season now. It doesn't mean he can't come back if some weird miracle recovery happens, but the team should not be playing as if they expect him to be back, and you don't want him rushing to try to be there for the playoffs. Best-case at this point is that he's healthy enough to work on his game during the summer. His shot was much improved, but it could still have been better, especially from three.
The season was lost as soon as Kawhi cried his way out as GS only got stronger. They salvaged a playoff spot with DDR and could still win 45+ games. But they were never making noise in the playoffs.
The defense without Green, Murray and Anderson is going to be brutal. As is the PG rotation. Just stinks to lose a year of his development.
Good point on possibly locking Murray up cheaper.
ing brah.
Ugh. I feel bad for him and really thought he was primed to make a significant jump this year. With Kawhi gone and no Murry or Walker, it's hard to have any excitement over this team. I know they won't do it but I really think they should look into trading Aldridge and possibly DeRozan to improve the team for the future.
i agree. there would be no point in bringing him back at that point. he has a nice work ethic so i am sure he will be even more determined to make it back. and i was thinking the same about walker and a possible opportunity. for me, it sucks, because murray was one of the players i was looking forward to watching this season. we'll see how it plays out. thanks for being the voice of reason!
whats next? DeRoZaN torn Achilles? RuDy Gay Retears ACL? LMA heart issues?
no chance he's pulling a kiwi?
Change your avi to Kawhi or something my man. We can't take anymore injuries.
i hope we do a proper tank tbh
like 20 total wins
Damn there goes the season. We already had little perimeter defense, now we have none. Who's the next big thing in college? Might as well start focusing on that.
Damn. Losing the two players I was looking forward to seeing this season in b2b preseason games is incredibly discouraging. this offseason.
