Four pages. I knew this couldn’t only be a discussion about Romeo.
And you are a git makes sense.
? Langford is a 2.5, who has flashed 3ish and D potential, but was projected as more of a creator coming into the league.
You repeatedly instigate posters and act like an insufferable asshole here.
Maybe it’s time for you to grow up some. Engage conversations like an adult and quit looking for a fight.
Unfortunately. To be honest Romeo may not be a mega millions lotto ticket but at worst he’s a scratch off
Guess I need to step my game up! Challenge accepted.
Whatever fills the empty void eating away at your life, I guess.
It's actually three years. They changed that in the last CBA. After they accrue three years of experience, the player and union have to agree.
I’m intrigued by Langford because I’ve always been of the mindset guys that take pride at getting at it on the defensive end are hard to find I just can’t see an avenue where he gains a sustained opportunity outside of showing his worth in the g-league. We could bench Walker for the remaining days of his career as a Spur and Langford is still last to get the show out of Vassell, JRich, Primo, Keldon and another few potential draft pics at the 2/3.
The union gets a say? That sounds weird... So if the player and the team agree, they still have to get an OK from the union?
Yep. The Union likely rubberstamps it but reserves the right to make a stink if they feel the player is getting coerced into agreeing or if they believe the assignment sets a bad precedent. Like if a player was told they'd have to agree to assignment or be cut, I would assume the Union would file a grievance. If a team made assignment a requirement to sign a guy, I think the Union would not want that to become the norm.
Also the d-league has its own Union and the NBPA probably doesn't want to step on its toes by allowing teams to assign even more NBA talent to soak up time and possessions.
So will we see Romeo Langford get any PT? Seems like even Josh Richardson isn't going to fit easily into the rotation unless Walker is slowly phased out.
It’s going to be tough. I have to think JRich offers more immediate value as a better 2 way player and also as a better trade chip.
for me I’d like the Walker experiment to be ended but even if Walker never sees another minute as a Spur and Primo finishes the year in Austin Langford is going to have to bust asses in practice to get a sustained opportunity this year.
O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo
Walker not giving up his spot without a fight these last 5 games or so but if Primo keeps playing like this Langord might get a shot to crack the rotation.
I think walkers being showcased; hopefully the spurs can get something of value for him. Romeo may see the court in Memphis.
The time to showcase was ahead of the trade deadline. S&T’s are less likely for an RFA like Walker and are harder to manage. He he continues to play like this his value is probably the MLE which most teams can offer outright. If his value gets higher than the MLE than the Spurs have a trade chip on there hands.

There are a few different options available and all start with the Spurs…. Prior to the trade deadline his value was obviously low hence showcasing him now for free agency.
Elaborate. What do you think his value is in free agency in terms of contract? Who are the suitors and why?
Spurs are just overloaded with 2-Guards right now. I don’t see Richardson as a part of our future. Think he’ll be moved this off-season or next year. Lonnie is the wildcard. He’s been playing better these past five games, but he does this: plays well for stretches and then plays poorly for stretches. I’m hoping him realizing that he has to perform the second half of the season if he wants any shot at a future here has lit a fire under him. He genuinely likes SA and wants to be a Spur, which is rare. Would be nice if he upped his game and didn’t turn into a wasted draft pick.
his value is "hopefully i stay in the league" most teams have guys like lonnie already
Lonnie’s problem is his bbiq / motor. If we aren’t able to obtain anything for him then so be it! Many teams miss on prospects drafted a lot higher than him. He’s served his purpose either way…..
Value is being determined now and hopefully elevated! Time will tell
