A few years ago the RJ connection seemed like a golden deal. Since he's been pretty much ineffective with the game style the Spurs have been forced to run, it seems to be not a good deal. It could turn around however.
Needs to stop giving mind-boggling contract (extension) offers to certain players. These owners can't seem to help themselves. It's amazing how clueless they can be.

& you ain't off the mark in my estimation. He always seems & looks on the precipice of being good. He honestly looks fine being ty. It's right there. He just can't keep hold of it.
It shouldn't take much to realize RJ (particularly an older version) isn't worth it. Call it a sixth sense or instinct. No need for stats. Same thing for owners that offer Arenas over $100 million. There are plenty of other examples out there.
^^^ tired old bag Kobe getting a $90 million extension is another good example...
EL NONO
In terms of restricting the team's cap space and roster flexibility, no doubt. But in economic terms, let's say Buss gets 50% ROI on that $90M. I don't know exactly what it is, but Kobe is one of the few superstars that can generate a healthy level of profit.
Joe Johnson might be a nice guy, (and apparently the Hawks owner(s) really likes him), but I get the sense he's not one of those few superstars. What do you think?
Buss isn't getting 50% ROI after The Skunker... it's only going downhill from there...
And once Duncan leaves, Spurs will be irrelevant for the next 50 years. Enjoy.
And once Kobe leaves, even the Mavericks... oh wait...
You mean when Pau leaves?
The Skunker!!!
