I've been thinking they give him 2 plus a part-guaranteed third. I hope I'm wrong and they make a deal like yours.
My guess is that in free agency Rudy would be happy to get 12M per year, maybe 2-3 years. If it’s two years, 24M, then signing the 2 year deal I described gets Rudy 20.5M basically for one year. I think it’s a more than fair deal where Rudy can still cash in the same 2 year deal next year when he hits FA again with another team.
It's like the draft. There's what I'd like to see the Spurs do, and what I think they might do. Your logic is sound - I've just got this feeling they are going to try and keep him in SA for two seasons.
I’d be fine with that - if that’s it. Means DeRozan/LMA core gets 2 full more years before the real changes. Or if DeRozan bounces Gay is still an expiring trade ballast. Just say no to anything year 3!
Pass
You forgot the part about how he sucks in the playoffs.
Money-wise, he is the best FA we can sign due to his Bird rights cir venting the cap. He had his ups-and-downs last season (who didn't?) but overall I was impressed with his production and his chemistry with the team.
His friendship with DeMar is worrisome though, considering the questions surrounding DeRozans contract situation. If the Spurs bring back Gay for 2 years, I feel like that puts more pressure on them to extend DDR.
Why? Just because they are friends? Their contracts are totally independent of each other and if Rudy signs an extension and Demar doesn't it is not going to effect the way he plays basketball. That's just ridiculous.
No more than 2 years!!!! I figure if his game falls off a cliff in the 2nd year of the deal he is a good expiring contract, so hopefully they don't sign him for any longer than that.
He's going to have to move to full time PF so that takes him out of the starting rotation as long as LMA is healthy. Most people have him penciled in as starting at SF, but he's not as quick as he used to be or would need to be. That leaves us still looking for a SF

Pretty much the same as last year, the Spurs will play SF by unqualified committee. At least that is what I expect.
Minimum. He ain't worth that much... IDGAF what those stats say.
“I disagree with math”. Brilliant shorty.
Thanks, from you it is a compliment. This confirms how right I am.Easily, one of the dumbest new posters on this board
Rudy Gays friendship w/ DeMar isn't going to make them do anything.
Spurs traded away Duncans best friends for years ( Antonio/Malik/Monty Williams).
But now they are going to extend DeMar because of Gay's friendship with him?
Gay isn't a long term piece either.
Rudy is about to bend the Spurs over... He's got to know that he plays a position of great need for this team also the Spurs may have some compe ion in his fee agency. Rudy played well last year, I have a feeling lots of teams would be interested in a player like him and he may go after the money this time now that he is fully healed and feeling his old self again.
Would rather spend money on stanley johnson who is almost 10 years younger.
SJ fits the timeline of our young guys too.
Rudy is significantly better than SJ
Give these guys a chance. GEEZZ!!
So other then luka i guess gays our only pf right now?
LMA is a pf and plays like a soft pf..
Bertans

Would make sense to overpay for him this season if the Spurs are indeed staying over the cap and then get him to sign a discount deal next year tbh
