Re-signing Devin is a must. Getting a third point guard would be a good addition. Beno will be back next season.
Are you kidding me? Beno has been great the entire season, but the Finals. Remember, he's a freaking ROOKIE.

Without starting an argument, Beno was good in a few games. Beno was terrible in the Finals.
To me, this means that the contract is probably - $5M first year, $5.5M second year, $6M third year but third year's only partial guaranteed -- meaning the Spurs can pay him like $2M for the third year and buy out the contract. Bowen has the same $2M buyout for the fourth year of his contract.There is a clause in the third year of the deal that would allow the Spurs to buy out the final year.
How much do yall think it will take to re-sign Brown?
Also, the LLE has nothing to do with the MLE, correct?
That's what I'm talkin' 'bout, right there!
Good catch. So basically the Spurs found a way to give him a two-year contract worth around $12M.
Nice.
Excellent news. Unlike this time a year ago, Horry's playoff performance more than justified resigning him. He'll be an important piece for our championship runs over the next 3 years.
F@ck the Mavs and The Heat! Too bad, so sad. They'll be licking our heels again!
They are separate exceptions. The LLE is estimated around $1.6M.
The Spurs don't have to use either exception to sign Devin. They have Devin's EB rights.
Its good to see that they are giving him a good deal, he definitely deserves it.
I guess ticket prices will be going up now since they are about 12 mill or so over the cap.
Wow...$12 for Horry..that sounds high to me....I was thinking more of a $3 mil per year deal...
So the only thing the Spurs are worried about the Luxury tax?
that sounds like its right on.
Hey, he earned it...
That's what happens when you win a game in the Finals by yourself. And if a similar contract was good enough for Danny Ferry, then it's good enough for Robert Horry.
I just might consider some season tickets now....
hmmmmmm
yes... very much so. if they already have plans for scola thats 10 players under contract. (nazr is up after this year, right?)
Yeah, Nazr is in his last year of his contract.
Considering we wouln't have won the championship without his Game 5 victory, it's more than worth it.Wow...$12 for Horry..that sounds high to me....
'Sides, we won't be getting any 'Jaren Jackson fall-off' from him. Just more good play.
2 yrs 3 mil
I said this in a thread last week (it got buried) but it bears repeating.So the only thing the Spurs are worried about the Luxury tax?
I think with the new luxury tax rules Holt and Co. aren't going to be as anal about staying under it.
For those of you who missed it, the luxury tax is no longer a gift to just teams under the cap - the luxury tax revenue is spread over all the teams in the league. So knowing that we'd basically get any reasonable amount over the cap back in luxury tax revenues (thanks to the likes of NY and Dallas, in particular each being about 30 mil over the cap), I think the Spurs don't mind spending a little more.
(for perspective, using team salaries for the 2004-2005 year and applying the new lux tax rules and a luxury cap of 60 million, the total lux tax revenue would be a hair under 4 million per team)
the front office is pretty amazing, so they probably got some voodoo trick to escape the lux tax too. gimmie a SF and a vet point and im happy "as is".
Wow what a blockbuster move. The spurs wouldn't have won without him.
this coming from a guy who says:Wow what a blockbuster move. The spurs wouldn't have won without him.
"kg's team sucks... they're no good, and no good players are around him... kg would average 30pts if he had help from teammates!"
did you see that game winning shot that cassell had to win a game in this year's finals? (i didnt either)
