Without finding a real front court, that future don't look so bright.
Except Mills is paid like 4 million and Aldridge 20 million![]()

I think he is what he is. McGee brings similar things, more athletic but he also is more of a bonehead. That turnover he had earlier was atrocious.
Took him too long to get to the NBA to live in SATX
I said I could see him turning into a poor man's DWade when I first saw him dominating Summer League. He's made it, tbh.
Well, we find a real front court too.
But this is the back court future, Murrays gonna kill it, Simmons gonna tidy himself up.

In game thread. For what its worth, not totally hating your point. You just picked the tiest time to make it. Pa lia had just robbed the spurs of a ring, and you're worried about a thread being made![]()
He will be overpaid this summer
Meh, consistency is key here and he's had trouble with that all season. Can't overreact to one game.
Get rid of Gasoft and give some of that sweet chaching to The Juice.
Trade LMA for a kit kat and use some of that money for Simmons, and give him half the kit kat.
Simmons needs to start game 3 over Danny Green, we need athleticism and a "hungry" at ude to start the game
Let him be Kawhi's #2 since Aldridge does not want to be.
I'm pretty sure he will stay at a bit of a discount unless we come back, and win it all.
He seems to like it here. Only other place I could see going too is Houston, but I don't think they have the salary cap to pay him.
I would not be surprised if one of his demands to stay is to keep his BFF Aldridge though.
I'm sorry. I'd trade Danny to keep Simmons all things measured. You need playmakers post Ginobili...
He won't take a discount and shouldn't. This is his one and only chance to make big money for him and his family. He'd be an idiot to not seize the opportunity
It's been pretty clear the type of player he can be over the last few games. An inconsistent role will cause inconsistent play. He's never gonna be an all star but he can definitely be a Danny Green type on defense with actual offensive ability
He was the 2nd best player against the rox when TP went down and only him and kawhi has come to play against the dubs![]()
he's going to have to do it night after night and not get the complacency feeling after getting paid but he deserves to get paid.
Yep. Aldridge gets 20, Gasol gets 15. He better get that money.
This to everyone who mentions discounts ^^^^^ THIS.
Spurs have a lot of "deadweight" they can make moves for him if they want him.
Can't judge him off of this series. Many years ago when the Spurs got swept by the Lakers in '01 Antonio Daniels was the second best player in that series. A year later he was complete crap against the Lakers.
Money is not everything when you're in a great environment. I'm not saying he's going to give up at least $5+ million a season. Danny Green could of gone a few places from I remember that would of paid him more when he was a free agent, but he was comfortable where he was at plus we are winning. If Spurs really want Simmons, they will work it out.
