Getting Ray Allen and Tayshaun Prince would be good pick ups
Maybe Parker can yell at Seraphin until he agrees to sign for the vet min.

On the cheap, we need: Butler (Rasual or Caron), Jameer (Jimmer as backup), and Larry Sanders at center. Those are all minimum deals. Not sure what Spurs want to do with back up PG. If they want scoring/shooting, then Jameer or Jimmer would be good in spot minutes shooting off the pick and roll. If they want a defender a la Cojo, well then we are probably screwed bc I don't know that there is one. I guess Kawhi and Green will have to guard the point guards.
His 3point field goal averages look decent.
Then he is not joining a real contender.
Larry Sanders with his head screwed on right would be a super steal and the league for interior defense who can patrol the perimeter with the lineup we would have.
Ben Gordon is an absolute black hole if allowed to be the main ball handler and when not, is prone to stand and watch, BUT he is an absolute sniper when he has time and spacing. I would be all about adding him on a 1 year deal. Aldridge is money on those corner kick-outs and Gordon is a plus shooter from the corner.
He surprising has some hops for a 35 year old spot up shooter

Yes, the year before the mental breakdown he was 2nd in Blocks behind Ibaka. Take a flyer on this guy.
anyway we can get mario chalmers?
He a career 43% shooter from the corner & he shot 52%in 2012-13 while playing w/ a bunch of scrubs. Imagine what he could do when he's getting clean shots in the Spurs system ala Patty.
As long as it isn't Andre Miller, Caron Butler or Tayshaun Prince, tbh..
gordon can be like gary neal tbh
No, he isn't a free agent...unless you want RC to trade Patty for Rio![]()
Miller doesn't fit the Spurs system & Butler has been miserable as a spot up shooter in the postseason ala RJ but I wouldn't mind Tayshaun in an Austin Daye/Bonner type role.
Larry Sanders is Andrew Bynum 2.0.....avoid at all costs.
I used to really like Rasual Butler when he played for the Oklahoma City Hornets.
That was a long time ago though...but if he has anything left in the tank though he wouldn't be terrible at all.
Naw. Bynum had messed up knees. Sanders has a messed up head. But there was no helping Bynum's knees. I think Sanders could thrive off the bench on a team full of veterans. Face the facts, when you only have a million to spend on a center, you might as well take a risk, especially when the rest of your roster is basically set.
-Jermaine O’Neal just couldn’t get physically ready to play which is why he didn't sign w/ the Mavs.
-Richardson showed he could still score when given minutes in March/April & Brett Brown said he was a good locker-room guy.
-Ben Gordon is lazy but the guy shot 52% on corner 3s in 2012-13. He's a rich man's Gary Neal.

Ew, the bar is about to close and I'm starting to not feel so bad about pushing a wheel chair out the door... None of the above?
Sanders isn't going to play for the vet min & has too big of an ego to be a bench warmer. A team like the Clippers are more suited for him considering that Doc is a players coach & would let him get away w/ his off court stuff. Bynum was a head case BEFORE his knee injury & was a head case while rehabbing. He was sued by his neighbors multiple times for disturbing the peace & often parked in handicap spots b/c he was a bag. Why do you think Kobe liked him more than he liked Gasol?
Rasual Butler can still shoot 3s, he gave the Wizards nice minutes during the regular season, last year, he could do the same for the Spurs and doesn't have a big ego like Caron Butler or Prince, too..he wouldn't be an option in the playoffs, though, will get exposed..
I would rather get a player in his late 20s or younger, but if they are planning on signing another old guy, I would take R. Butler over the others..
Maybe. But maybe no one is really calling him bc they are spooked by how he quit basketball. Bad teams with young players won't take a chance. And the good teams don't have a lot of money to throw his way. He's not getting a big multi year contract until he proves he's stable. What better place to start than the Spurs.
And Doc won't put up with off court crap. And Pop is well known as a players coach.
The rumor mill is showing that Spurs are interested http://projectspurs.com/2015-article...al-butler.html
