    DET has crazy depth. Even if weird fits, all the guys (Leuer, Drummond, Morris, Boban, Baynes, etc..) are all good players.

    I wish SA could have kept Boban, but I am so happy for that guy. Great guy, really good player and he's good enough to be a rotational player and gives them a ton of versatility to go huge or small.

    I hate to see Boban go, but Dedmond's athletic skills fill our defensive need better. But I will miss rooting for Boban

    Nice payday for Boban. Good for him.

    Not sure what Detroit are doing though. Perhaps Baynes is on his way.

    It doesn't matter how good Boban is or isn't, if Pop was never going to play him significant minutes.

    Good for Boban. He'll be missed.

    Now Pop can't take out his frustrations on Boban anymore or bash fans who wanted to see a legit, skilled, unique center actually play.

    He'll have to find a new whipping boy to keep on the bench while the team gets eliminated sooner than they should. I'm thinking that's Bertans now.

    The Pistons are really going big, signing 6'10" Jon Leuer & 7'3" Boban to add to 6'11" Drummond. They experimented last season with putting 6'9" Marcus Morris at SF and it worked out pretty well. I guess Van Gundy figures he can't out-small-ball more talented teams, so he'll (temporarily at least) go big... it will at least be fun to watch. I liked Boban, but the the Spurs most likely made the smart move switching Boban's good offense/defensive vulnerability for Dedmon's mobility, saving some money in the process.

    He'll get a ton of play in the East. Godspeed, Wun Wun.

    Meh. Seriously. He was fun to watch on offense but he couldn't rebound or move for . We need defenders and rebounders more than anything.

    Also, I'm pretty sure teams can go over the cap to resign players already on their roster.
    in some situations, but not all. if he had been here 3 years, we would have had full bird rights, which is what you are thinking of. if it was 2 years, we'd have his early bird rights, which limits how much you can pay the FA. off the top of my head i can't remember the specifics, i think its up to the MLE.

    Spurs knew he was likely a goner for a while now. I'm guessing they recognized that PNR defense was going to be an issue, so they gave up on Boban and went with Dedmon. Salary cap can be tough, but I'm glad it exists or GSW could have added some legit bigs on par with the rest of the team.

    And then you look at his rebounding and defensive metrics.

    He struggled to adjust to the NBA goaltending rules but still rebpunded at a high rate. He improved at pnr as he adjusted to the speed of the game.

    I hope they can keep him. 3 years from now that amount isnt going to be .

    Big loss tbh. The only thing stopping him is overplaying him and getting an injury.

    He's for sure gone my man. Spurs don't have any way of matching that and keeping Gasol (well, if the don't trade away 4+M in salary.

    I'd take prime Boban at that price over twilight Gasoft and a bloated contract any day!
