Yeah It's going to be very interesting to see who else wants to come. These rumors certainly help with other FA who think if it's good enough for KD it's good enough for me....thank you Z.Lowe
Gordon hasn't averaged fewer than 30 mpg any season of his career. I think coming off the bench in a lower-usage role would help keep him healthy. Yes, though, the short-term part is that hopefully the Spurs can draft someone like Malik Beasley to learn from Gordon for a year or two.
I think Clarkson would have a ton of interest in being a Spur. The much bigger issue is that he's an Arenas RFA, so the Lakers can keep him relatively cheaply. Might have to negotiate a S&T.

Tbh as a basketball fan I would hate it if he signed here. We have our stars in LMA and Kawhi. The NBA has too many teams as is and KD signing with us would make one more. Would be nice to see him out East so LBJ would at least have to play an equal talent on his way to the finals.
For those saying that he plays the same position as Kawhi, Spurs could start them at 2/3, then play them like KD/Russ play right now. There's one of them on the court at all times.
yep, if he doesn't come here, he needs to go to the east
If they sign Durant, I'd scream. Durant and Pau Gasol? I mean, my god...
You got to be a complete moron not to want Durant on your team. I mean Jesus.
guys, did you see the look on Durant's face today??
the guy is ready................ready to come here, hahahahahahahahaha
The issue with Gordon is that he is NEVER healthy ala Bradley Beal. I could see him signing w/ a team like the Grizzlies who could use his scoring punch & will be willing to risk a "melon" contract. Much rather offer 10 mill to Fournier & see if he bites since I don't think the Magic are prioritizing re-signing him over market price b/c of Hezonja.
You guys liked how the offense looked tonite with Verde hitting his treys? Imaging that every night but with Durant. EVERY NIGHT.
Yeah, like all those threes Durant was hitting tonight...
if Durant wants to come here:
WELCOME, WELCOME AND THRICE WELCOME!!!!
Bad game is a bad game. Plus Donovan
It's been a bad post-season for him. And while I do think he'd be awesome as spot-up guy for the Spurs, you're kidding yourself in projecting him into that role. He's not coming to Texas unless he's eating first.Bad game is a bad game. Plus Donovan
Man, Eric Gordon is a horrible idea. Hes one of the worst in the league in certain abilities called Durability and Injury Proneness. He's Someone that is going to just try to fit in, and thats great but the only thing hes going to fit in when the spurs play is his nice suits because he will always be injured.
He hasnt had a good season healthwise in like how what 3-5years? Hes been down so much, its hard to remember.
If hes willing to take 6 and under. Why not. Thats not going to happen though. Id rather take fournier...ofcourse if the spurs feel like they can rehab Gordon, maybe its worthwhile.
Durant will never come. Kawhi and Durant hate each other.
Do people forget how the bench reacted when he made a sweet move on durant and durant feel to the ground? Everyone jumped like crazy...Thr bench hardly does those unless among themselves they dislike Durant and was happy kawhi punked his ass.
I think we'd need a better defensive pg in that situation, especially against the Warriors.
The projected salary cap for 16/17 is $92m. KD is a 9-year veteran, so under this cap his max contract will be worth $25.9m the first year. The most feasible scenario for the Spurs to clear this amount of cap space is:
- Timmy, Manu and D. West opt-out/retire. If any of them wishes to re-sign with exceptions or vet min afterwards they can do so.
- Trade Danny Green and Patty Mills for no salary back.
- Draft and stash the 1st round pick.
The new roster would look like this:
Player Salary Kevin Durant $ 25,900,000 LaMarcus Aldridge $ 20,575,005 Kawhi Leonard $ 17,638,063 Tony Parker $ 14,445,313 Boris Diaw $ 7,000,000 Kyle Anderson $ 1,192,080 Jonathon Simmons $ 874,636 Boban Marjonovic $ 1,500,000 Rookie Minimum $ 543,471 Rookie Minimum $ 543,471 Rookie Minimum $ 543,471 Rookie Minimum $ 543,471 Rookie Minimum $ 543,471 Total $ 91,842,452 Projected Cap $ 92,000,000
Of course, there are other routes to clear $25.9m (letting 2 out of Kyle/Boban/Simmons go instead of Patty, or trading Parker instead of Green, or trading Diaw plus some other cap gymnastics), but this is probably the most feasible scenario.
Keep in mind that getting KD would ensure championship contention for the next decade. Lack of depth for 1 year is a small price to pay.
Tbh my greatest regret if this happens is letting Patty go for nothing. Under the new cap, $3m for a player of his calibre is UNBELIEVABLE value. His contract is actually a huge asset.
Sigh
no need KD

YOURE GAY
If KD go to GSW then we can start to worry.
Otherwise, chill
lol at least I provide some OC to this forum
durant is a . people who want him on the spurs are probably 12 year olds who have to line up at the mall when new shoes come out. ST is starting to make reddit look good.
real deep stuff going on here Mr. anime. You should discuss graphic novels and ninja movies with cry havoc
