I think Spurs will not be able to afford Demar's market this off season. This could be his last chance of getting big money or playing for the ring. Can Spurs offer either of that next off season? Highly doubt it.

The snubs of this group will have rude awakening when Spurs can't even score enough to get us 20 wins next season without Demar. Yes definitely Spurs need Demar more than Demar needs the Spurs.
