Eh who cares about waiting. It's not like the pool of forwards isnt dried up already. Might as well wait and see if Morris changes his mind again.
I wonder what the delay is? Either be a bas and renege or sign with the team you committed to. Fish or cut bait.
I can only wonder if he's playing NY and SA against each other for better terms? Or even another team has entered the bidding?

I am over being pissed about Morris. He has not reneged yet, so if he comes, great. If he doesn't, that's ok too. He would be a nice addition to the team this year and provide some much needed toughness and someone to rest Rudy, go against Nephew and Lebron. If he doesn't come, the young guys get more burn. , Keldon may have more time with the big boys than Austin. You still have the MLE in case someone is waived that you want.
As far as the Knicks go, revenge is dish best served cold.
I haven’t read the 20 pages since yesterday afternoon but a guess is that Reggie Bullock not getting his deal done with the Knicks is holding up Morris signing his deal. There’s a small chance I guess that Morris ends up in San Antonio after all if the Knicks can’t free up the cap space for him.
Adding to above, even if he does sign here, he will likely be gone next year so it's not like he figures in long term anyway.
It sucks if lose Bertans and don't get Morris but I wish Davis the best. Likely he will fit better where he is going.

The longer this is drawn out, the better it is for the Spurs. And, like you said, there's no harm in waiting at this point. The Spurs going to miss out on Jon Leuer?
The Knicks are facing more time pressure because they'll want to decide what to do with their cap space.
Exactly. That’s mainly why I’m so up in arms about this. I get Morris getting a new offer with more money, but past the surface this is pretty extraordinary with regards to how bad of business this looks regardless of the outcome now.
I hear you but it's not about that if the Knicks cant redo deal with Bullock why should the spurs take him back his heart clearly wasn't here he within his right wants the money so go find it. He is/was willing to go bk on his word knowing the organisation made a trade an asset that belonged to the spurs given away cause he renegging. So if the knick deal falls through let him go find another with another team. We not talking Karl Malone here. If it was just a signing and a renegging I would of been annoyed but whatever bit because we gave away a piece that could have been packaged in a different deal yea I don't want him on the spurs he sucks as a person even more than we thought before hand.
Millennial black NBA player decision:
Play for a curmudgeonny old white man in a stinky small city that has muffin tops as far as the eye can see.
OR
Play in New York New York for a trendy black coach, with Russian beauties as far as the eye can see, and the other gazillion perks NYC offers, especially for a young millionaire.
Hmmm, what a tough choice.
Maybe Bullock (sp?) is holding up the deal
Also gotta talk Reggie Bullock out of $20MM.
Fitzdale trying to rook us. I forgot that clown was in NYC.
Which got mod locked my kyle Anderson thread?
He's gone. He'd of signed already if he was coming to SA.
We will go from a Starter caliber player to looking at some 3rd string scrubs.
could say the same for NY though...
What pressure? Its obvious Morris is just a trade chip for them. So if they “miss out” they can just keep the powder dry to absorb a player for a pick vs trading one for a pick (like Morris). Don’t think there is much pressure.
Feels like Kawhi/LAC. Morris buying NY time to do their thing so he can get his money.
Not really - Reggie deal has to be worked out first.
I think Spurs can waive another player (Marco or Metu) and use MLE to sign two player instead of one and try to fill the hole.
We know there are not starter caliber player but maybe is not bad at all, they have 9.2M to spend.
Waive Metu, sign Justin holiday and trey lyles?? Not a terrible consolation for Morris screwing us
Not really, tbh. If the Knicks put the ~$15 million on the table for Morris like reports indicate, that means they're not planning to use any salary cap space on Bullock.
yeah it is. lyles is garbage and a heavy downgrade from bertans. holiday is just another guard to compete for minutes with walker/white/forbes. not somebody who's helping us
He was a scrub anyway. Why anyone was celebrating this signing is beyond me
This niga is basically a poor man's washed up Carlos boozer lite
Perhaps, but doesn’t seem far fetched to me that it was a tentative offer pending their ability to get Reggie to accept these terms.
Hed have to take the vet min for the knicks to offer 15 right?
