    Do we even know what the Spurs offered?
    It doesn't matter. NYK has indicated they want to keep Butler.

    I think Elson might be RFA, too? Who cares on him.

    So we MIGHT get Elson next year. No Javtokas? Holy .

    I wonder if the Spurs cut off Javtokas without even knowing if Butler or, God forbid, Elson would accept the offer. Spurs can't be that stupid, right?

    This doesn't bother me too much, I wasn't a big fan of his. I'd rather find a big man via trade during the season, when we know what big men are on the trading block.

    I don't understand why Robertas immediately signed a contract when he heard the Spurs offered Butler and Elson. Can he not wait?
    He's telling them to go themselves. It's the Scola Special. The Spurs are turning into horrible negotiators.

    I'm thinking the spurs gave a max offer that maybe was not his liking..I would quickly sign also!!

    It's a big time prick move by him especially since the Spurs foot the bill to put his ass back together after his crashed. What a .

    You gotta be f-ing kidding me!!! What a hole offseason thus far!!! Damnit!!!! Oh well, at least the Spurs won't be burdoned with championship expectations and will be able to try to fly under the radar. !

    "Javtokas was "surprised" at the Spurs decision, but that he got a great contract from Panathinaikos."

    I'd say that was a euphemism for pissed off and disappointed.

    How many years is Robertas' Panathinaikos contract? amount?

    I'm in no way a GM, but it, not getting Robertas TODAY! is a ing huge disappointment.

    So now we got $$$ committed in RFA offers, and what if NEITHER of those guys comes?

    Robertas probably feels ed over, teased, toyed with, cheated down in $$$ by the Spurs.

    I hope Kori and LJ are enjoying their nap!

    Well, that's one move that potentially makes sense -- Butler.

    Elson completely mystifies me, but at least they haven't put all their eggs in that basket.

    Javtokas will never be a Spur. If they didn't want him this summer, they never will.

    They must think they're destined to get Oden per the 87/97/07 rule.

    Wow, shocking.

    So we're going after both of them not just one? That's cool I guess. I would have loved to have one NBA guy (Francisco) and then Javtokas off the bench. But maybe the front office knows something we don't know.

    After seeing highlights of him posted on here, I was kinda excited to see him bring that energy and aggressiveness to the Spurs.

    I usually agree w/the FO and their strategy/thinking, but blowing this guy off and pursuing Elson instead is just baffling. I don't get it.

    Butler I hope. For some reason, I think that New York will be hesitant to match the offer.

    Elson is a nice player guys.

    He plays like Kevin Willis minus the alligator arms and about 10 years.

    I was thinking the Spurs were trying to get a center to start and sign Javtokas to come off the bench. I guess when he saw the Spurs offered two centers he assumed the Spurs didn't want him and signed a contract.

    The only vague memory of Jackie Butler I have is watching a knick game and watching a nice post move by a guy that looked like Eddy Curry...and realizing it wasn't him, it was some other kid (who I know think was Butler).



    I guess he's alright?

    BULL ! Isn't it clear that the Spurs do not have attractive tradeable commodities

    Despite whatever the Knicks response was on Butler, they needed to have secured Javtokas' services.

    Now they're ed. Whatever happens from here and even if they somehow sign Elson (God forbid), they simply CANNOT go into the season with what they have.
