absolutely his reputation. 3 months on the spurs doesn't change that but is a step in the right direction.
any of the guys they're pursuing.Who exactly is the 'future Bruce Bowen type' they would be losing out on?
maybe all the gm's in the league are wrong about g-rob and his value isn't $1mil per year and last one to sign. However, I agree with his current market price.
Something I have not seen discussed in Glenn Robinson threads is that regular season funk that pops up in unexpected places where the Spurs just can't get untracked on the offensive end of the floor. I think the Big Dog is the perfect antidote for these maladies, and it's not unreasonable that he can add 3 or 4 games to the win column - which would be huge if you value home court advantage come playoff time.
ETA: I don't think a DeMarr Johnson will increase the Spurs win total this next season.
The Spurs are playing for championships today, not tomorrow.
...and the league has never made any mistakes before. The best opportunities come when others are wrong or are not paying attention.maybe all the gm's in the league are wrong about g-rob and his value isn't $1mil per year and last one to sign. However, I agree with his current market price.
seems like they've today taken care of, .04* away from 3-peat champion.
With great rewards comes great risk....and the league has never made any mistakes before. The best opportunities come when others are wrong or are not paying attention.
nevertheless, I want the spurs to sign g-rob but for not over pay.
Guru,
You make a very good point.
Given the current salary cap status, I don't think it's possible for the Spurs to overpay for Big Dog.
It still perplexes me that Cleveland did not make a charge at GRob. I thought he would have been a perfect fit there.
You don't turn down a two time All Star for vet minimum or LLE. You just don't.
Glenn Robinson could be a significant role player for the next 3 to 4 seasons. At 15 minutes a night, he could last that long without much of a dropoff in performance. He definitely has great bball instincts and that jumper of his sure would be nice for TD down low.
I have to think the only thing keeping the Spurs from resigning him (if they don't) is a concern about character issues still.
I dont think its about the character issues. I think the Spurs are looking at what people offer for Devin. If its some insane amount, they wont match and go for GRob or someone else like maybe Mckie. If Devin's offer is reasonable, they may match. So I think they are waiting till he gets an offer then have 7 days to work something else or match.
