If Warriors don't do another move, waiving Devin is a no brainer for them : they will save $6M by doing that.
No. But I'll take Barry for Pietrus.
Thanks!

I would think Brown will hear other offers, but guys like him won't get that much offered. I would say the Spurs could get away signing him cheaply. Not too much more than what he was getting paid in Utah.
That alone is worth trading for.
Give him the minimum or something around $1.5M to $2M. Spurs would get a hometown discount.
Don't make the same mistake twice.
So, you'd want to spend half the MLE on a fourth swingman.
What mistake was there? They went with Finley. Right choice.Don't make the same mistake twice.
There's all kinds of rumors involving them though. I don't think they are done trading. We'll see.
On the subject of how much for Devin ... he was only guaranteed 500K this season anyway. So giving him a million should do.![]()
Manu wouldn't have fouled Dirk if we had Devin.
Don't you know anything?
Two things you don't understand. Barry is out the door any second, so it'd actually be a third swingman. Plus Brown struggled for the most part last year, so his price tag could very well be the minimum. There's not a huge market around the league for a shooting guard who shot 39% from the field.
But as Spurs fans know, Brown has a history of guarding Dirk and hitting big shots in the playoffs. You don't pass those two things up.
Yes. Only if you have a trade in the works that involves Barry and Beno leaving. No if you don't. Its hard to say. I just would love to see him back in SA. Not because he is from here. He just works hard and I like that.
Well, that's pretty much the minimum.
I have no objection.
if spurs land devin brown
barry would be gone also they trade beno
Being the first team in NBA history to not match an offersheet on a restricted free agent when they were only offered a one-year contract. As it turned out, the Spurs could have used him in the playoffs. Barry vanished and no one on the team outside of Bowen could guard Dirk.
Brown, on the other hand, has guarded him well in the past.
I think the Warriors would might want to trade Brown because his contract isn't that bad and is attractive to a lot of teams who are need of a backup swingman. Who knows?
Way ahead of you, LJ -- otherwise I would've said FIFTH. I was helping you out.Then why did you say $2 million? Make up your mind. I already said I have no problem with the minimum.Plus Brown struggled for the most part last year, so his price tag could very well be the minimum. There's not a huge market around the league for a shooting guard who shot 39% from the field.
I wonder if ChumpDumper finally saw the error of letting Devin Brown go.
Worst case scenario is you have to spend $2M for him. In that scenario, I still sign him unless you could get an Ariza or Jeffries. And that won't happen because teams don't lose restricted free agents for small contracts.
Other than the Spurs, that is.
I don't know if Devin Brown would have guaranteed a championship, but I was in favor to keeping him and letting Barry go. However, I am not mistaken, they wanted to get Finley and Brown was left out.
The Spurs knew Brown would get no playing time behind the guards they had, so let him look elsewhere.
I seriously doubt Devin Brown would have made a big difference against Dirk and the Maveteers. Suddenly the officials call a different game for him than they were for Bowen? Please.
You remember Brown as some kind of demigod. I remember the guy who needlessly coughed up the ball for Tracy McGrady's final three in that miracle blitz year before last.
Wants to come on? Sure. Gets time over Finley? No way.
there was really no reason at all for the .4 incident to be described in detail in the original article.
no reason at all.
DB beat out Barry in the rotation when he was here.
I think the Spurs can sign him for the minimum. That is what I think. Probably won't happen though. He might get more money elsewhere. Not too much more, but more. If the Spurs do get him for the minimum, they can focus on a long three with their mid.
It wasn't an error. No team ever signed a free agent swingman expressly to be on the IR for $5 million in one season. I asked anyone to show me a similar deal and got no answer.
and :
I want Devin Brown back. Call presti, get it done.
