Well I guess we will see what happens. I am a little excited about Rudy Gay as I've always wondered what he will be like on the Spurs, so hopefully his achilles will be alright and he can team up with Kawhi and LMA to form a decent trio.
of course it only felt that bad ... its just that not one thing happend that got me even a little excited ... Murray totally sucking in SL is the worst and that is not really off-season related
there are still so many bad teams in the NBA that even with this off-season the Spurs will probably stay top 4 in the West and win 50+ games ... Kawhi now has the perfect recipe to become MVP ... no Star around him ... but I do not really care for that
The Spurs lost ground to other good/great teams ... so I call this off-season a loss

Murray sucking is an understatement. There are no words.
Did you know that by his stats and impact in games he was the 404th worst player of the ENTIRE SUMMER LEAGUE TEAMS. Out of 407 players that played in all of Las Vegas, Utah and Orlando, Dijon was one of the absolute worst (404th worst) and he's a second year player. It doesn't look good for him. He had to be served that humbling pie. I had never seen a Spurs sop re get benched in summer league in that fashion. This is an analytics guy I follow in twitter... read that chart and weep.
I agree that I don't see them as doing enough to get better. They are likely not as good as last season's team. Even if we consider that Rudy Gay if he comes back healthy is a better player than Jsimms, and can offset his loss and more... he's difficult to be excited about coming off that injury. It's one of those things where one has to see to believe. Then, the Spurs left unanswered the situation with their guards. That is what I wanted them to address and they basically have a lot of rookies and untested guys there... and the 50 million man: Patty...
and by the way, the Spurs standing pat with there guards and looking in the garbage bin for Brandon Paul and Bryn (undrafted) is by choice. A lot of guards have been traded in the past couple of seasons and there have been PGs that were available.
If Rudy Will be healthy that Will not be a bad offseason, Paul and Lauvergne are good for me. The only bad thing Is mills contract but We have the same team plus Rudy and a lot of Space for 18´
Mills contract, as many here said, was an excessive legacy contract, for a player who didn't deserve it.
Some called it a bargain here for weeks, so let's not pretend now that the whole site was against it.
Mills market value should have been 8-10 million per year, and 2-3 years. We overpaid there.
Failed to keep Simmons, and even if Paul, White and Blossommen develop into nba players that loss may be the difference between having a chance or not against Gs.
We also lost deadman, seem unable to resign Lee, and still seem incapable of adding a player that can score inside against smaller opponents.
Couldn't cash in Danny Green nor Aldridge, which becomes a necessity if we are no longer in win now mode and this becomes our transition year.
I don't know what to say about Parker.
On the plus side, we had a one year rental of a border all star if he regains his level, or we are stuck with a player recovering that will eat up 9 millions of next year cap space, a win now move that goes against everything else we need to do (move LA, or Danny, or both, develop someone on our backcourt, find a starting PG, find a reliable inside force, and find out what to do with Tony).
this off-season.
Came here to post this.
DMC "Spurs will basically stand pat"
ST "No, they will get Chris Paul or Paul George or Gordon Hayward or.... I mean they cannot stand Pat, Manu is going to retire and Tony isn't coming back"
DMC "Tony is coming back and he'll start
ST "lol fat hands"
ST "...."
ST " ing Spurs standing pat, Rudy ing Gay, really?"
