That would be kind of imprudent before at least having a good idea what the cap number will be.
Resign him now.

You quoted it and underlined it, now read it and try to understand it.
that is very ignorant of you to say.... I wouldn't bother replying but you are one the posters I respect around here.
At any rate, here is what pop had to say about the final four last year
http://www.draftexpress.com/article/...nal-Four-3202/
that wouldn't be the case if NBA is years ahead would it be?Gregg Popovich: Oh sure. I’m much more anal in that sense. In this game for example I saw a great out of bounds play that I’m going to steal for sure. I like to see how different coaches manage the game. How they sub. What they’re doing offensively and defensively.
Josh Childress also tends to disagree with you.
At any rate, I am not going to waste any more of my time. NBA by clearly #1, but Euroleague is not as far behind as some of you think.
Manu playing in Europe would be s... I just hope he NEVER leaves the Spurs.
Back on topic (or close to it) does anyone think Real Madrid is a real threat to us? More than other NBA teams? Just askin'
Yes Because Manu Ginobili Is Probably A top 3 Player Outside The States, He is Very Popular Everywhere else.... The Only people Who Like Manu In The states are spurs Fans.... I think All Manu Wants Is to feel Wanted, And He is not getting that from the spurs right now.
No.
Manu could make more money over in Europe, but that's been the case for a while now. American taxes are a huge drain, plus the Euro is riding sky high and the dollar is in the ter, and Euro-clubs will pay exorbinant amounts of money to sign big name players.
That being said, players dream of making it to the NBA for a reason. I can't act like I know everything about Euro basketball (and KBP will let ya know), but I'd have to imagine the lifestyle of an NBA player is more glamorous than that of a Euroleaguer, as are the cities, arenas, hotels, etc. Most players seem to view going overseas as a step back, and I'm sure there is a reason for that.
As Bruno said, returning to Europe would be a semi-retirement, an acknowledgment that he can no longer compete at the very highest level. Given his recent play, I don't believe Manu is ready to voluntarily leave the NBA for a lesser pro league.
You really have to take into consideration the extensive number of games you play in US pro sports. Playing 2 times the number of games upon the same period of time is not so good for your body durability. Ain't talking about personnal life with all the travels. (Manu had a daughter recently no?)
I have no doubt that there are advantages to life in the Euroleague when compared to the NBA. Those advantages probably account for many of the pros with NBA-level skills who never leave Europe.
That being said, I don't believe Manu is at the point in his career where he is ready to voluntarily move to a lesser pro league. He is still capable of playing at the highest level and I believe that he will stay in the NBA as long as that is true.
Btw, Manu's wife is due to deliver twins in June in San Antonio.
Manu will have twins in a couple of months.
Manu will also:
- play for Argentina this summer
- not resign with Spurs
- Either go to an NBA contender or Euro contender
as to why would Manu choose to go to Europe. It's obvious, more $, less stress on his body and maybe he wants to raise his kids in Europe.
As a spurs fan, i want manu to retire as a spur but if he has to sign else where, i'd love to see him play for Madrid or any other European club... much easier for us, Euro fans, to watch him live !
manu is not going anywhere. He will be a Spur next year. His family is settled in San antonio and I doubt they want to move especially with his wife due to have twins. He won't be moving them.
Manu's solid play of late will have the spurs opening up the bank.
The spurs will pay what they have to to retain Manu, this place will get excited but that will not necessarily be a good thing in the long run for the success of the franchise. I do not believe Manu will play up to the level he has been latetly for the duration of the contract.
Expect what we saw earlier in the year for most of Manu's new contract. Injury, age decline, wear and tear will work into his game.
Sorry.
You've taken a position that Duncan can renegotiate his contract in a way that will favorably affect the cap situation of the Spurs for next season.
That is not possible under the CBA for the very reasons you quoted in an earlier post.
Have a good day.
