    uhhhh maybe you should reread my first response to your post.



    You said the budget was reasonable and I showed you why it wasn't. I don't think Sarver is gonna pony up the $ to pay the luxury tax to the extent it is looking right now if we don't win this year and even if we do win this year there is still that chance. Based on those salaries and the number of players accounting for it you tell me how our budget is reasonable.
    *sigh*

    You don't get it. Sarver doesn't have a choice. He has contracts and can't dump salary. Ever read the CBA from start to finish? I have. Enjoy your team while you have it Chicken Little. The sky won't really fall if you lose this series.

    didn't say the sky would fall. Stated we weren't in a good situation budget wise which you did. Showed you why and now you are pretending to be the all knowing at how a franchise is run and that for some reason you feel I intimated that the Suns will be des ute if we don't win the series. Whatever, man, get off your high horse. I applaud you for reading the CBA though you must have lots to live for.

    Oh, bite me asshole. You are a Suns fan and I was just trying to tell you why your team in a good position. You have all your impact players LOCKED DOWN. No new contract negotiations to be lux tax busters or cause you to lose any key players. Suns and Spurs are only a couple hundred thousand apart salary wise so our position applies closely to yours. I don't get your doom and gloom bull but maybe I should take that as a good sign for tonight. You as a semi-literate fan are already worrying about next season and not about playing in June.

    As far as reading the CBA, It took less than an hour. I figured if I was gonna spend 200+ hours a year watching basketball it might be fun to try to understand how the business worked. Maybe thats just me and my no life.

    I can live with that.

    Didn't take long for the old Spursfan to surface. The sexual jealousy was actually one of your most endearing traits. Keep it up doughboy LOL

    doom and gloom? ok? semi-literate? I think that would be you since you take my original response into this long diatribe. where is the doom and gloom. I STATED WE DONT HAVE A REASONABLE BUDGET!!!! If what you think we have is a reasonable budget then you have some issues.


    you should take a closer look at your situation and compare it to ours if we are apparently only a couple hundred thousand dollars apart!?!?









    Where is this couple hundred thousand $???? Looks like you guys have 2 more players on roster next year and are about $11 mil less in salary than us.. But we are in similar positions? OK....whatever you say..But I am the asshole and semi literate one here?

    Shut up and go pick a fight elsewhere now!!!

    Jeez...are you really Sarver in drag?

    Look at your lineup through 2009 and factor in your draft picks.

    What the are you as a fan complaining about?

    It's not your money.

    I said I didn't know if Sarver would pony up the cash. I guess that is doom and gloom and complaining in your book. Whatever. Know the facts and what the argument is I made before you jump all over my . Some Spurs fans think they ing know everything.Thanks for trying to educate me about me own team just because you have no life and read the CBA.

    You really don't have to worry about it until 2009. Quit looking at the bottom line dollars and look at the blank spots in our roster in 2008-2009. Those players have to be replaced with appropriate players and they certainly won't come any cheaper.

    Just enjoy the games. Savor them. It's probably not gonna be very pretty to be a Spurs fan in 2008-2009 and 2009-2010 and who knows how long after that. It's been a nice run. just enjoy it while you have it dude.
