    Everyone who doesn’t see Reaves as a promising player *at the very least* are so hugely dismissive of his talent all because he wore a Lakers jersey and he was around LeBron. Note I’m not saying he’s for sure going to blow up, but this fluke nonsense has got to stop.
    I don't think that's the issue, but rather that we're talking about handing the guy 4 years 100 million for a very limited sample of games. If he can sustain his playoff performance in the long run, sure, he'll be worth it. But if he doesn't suddenly it's a pretty difficult position you find yourself in. At the price the Lakers want to sign him for (50 something million) there's no doubt he's a great signing, but at twice that the risks give you pause.

    If the Spurs are going to sign Reaves, we probably won't hear anything until the 6th. That'd be a looooong six days

    It feels like Brook Lopez is the next decision everyone is waiting on. Grant Williams is an interesting one, too. I don't really like the idea of Williams on the Spurs but I can imagine him being on their radar. IMO, too offensively limited on a team without multiple offensive stars. He's the type of role player the Spurs could go after once Wemby is fully formed -- not now.

    With Spurs seemingly not caring to use their cap space to absorb bad deals and not really needing/wanting any FA anyways, who cares about waiting? Not like SA would be worried about missing on any FA right?

    I really like this roster. There may be some things missing, but turned loose to play hard together I think they will surprise some folks.

    Yeah, the Bane deal feels like Memphis hasn't learned . Though maybe they could be trading Ja? I still want them to find some way to getting Ja and Brooks on that Rockets team.

    Yes, because 40mil is ing absurd. 25 for a guy who played well for a month is also absurd.

    Bane getting $207 million is great news for Vassell. He's gotta feel pretty good about his chances of getting $100 million.

    Speaking of Haliburton and Bane, reminds me that I really thought the Spurs were picking Haliburton over Vassell and I heard a lot of noise on that draft day that the Spurs really wanted Bane too.

    I'd rather have Wemby so I'm not mad but, woah, would Haliburton and Bane have been one of a haul that night.

    Bane produced significantly more during the regular season than Reaves. Although Bane leveraged himself well here. I don’t like the contract but I understand the position Memphis is in.

    Just further proof that building with guys like Keldon who perform at a high level compared to their contract is way more pragmatic and indicative of long term roster flexibility and viability.

    A lot of teams are gonna be zip tied and ed if things don’t pan out.

    In hindsight that haul wouldn’t have positioned us in a great situation.

    So let’s say production is similar had the Spurs picked them. Having both wouldn’t equate to being at the level of a team that could make a deep run and you’d be locked into those contracts with minimal flexibility. Seems that would put us in purgatory more than anything.

    The rookie extensions are fine, the $$ values just look huge with the cap going up. Halliburton was a major of offense and the Pacers were essentially a .500 team with him, which is great work given the state of the rest of their roster. Bane was a high volume, efficient scorer, and is growing in his ability to be a second side / tertiary offensive creator.
    There's always a possibility that they don't live up to the money, but that's always a risk, and the evidence on their growth, and value so far indicates it's probably fine. Good players cost $.
