Technically, it's July 9th EST time, so I think we could have already made the offer.
Smart thinking. But I don't think the Spurs jepordize 2010--in other words they'll have to build in a TO after year two regardless.

sign jr smith to a 5 year offer and front load the deal
and load alot of incentives in it
I'm concerned.
I hope we get Smith. We need points!
We need Manu to be healthy! What do we have to do play him 25 minutes every other game?
And Tim's efficiency in the playoff's was not good. He needs more help and easy looks. Tony is doing a great job of getting him those looks from what I saw, but others not so much.
That series against the Lakers was pathetic.
And whatever about it being the furthest we had been after a le defense, this looked like a really bad, old team.
This was not a narrow loss in a close 7 game series.
We got hammered by the softy Lakers.
And it's not going to be any better this year unless we make some upgrades!
Spurs wont get JR, but i dont think the Nuggets keep him now.
The way it has played out so far, i think the clipps or warriors do something stupid and throw MLE+ money at him
Damn it, you might be right about the Clippers. They could offer him more than the MLE and pair him with Boom Dizzle. F. U. C. K. That's what happens in the morning. No question.
Someone get me a drink and the number to Delfino's agent.
I think that if they were going to throw their cap space around, it would be for higher graded RFAs like AI, Josh Smith, Josh Childress or Emeka Okafor.
Warriors just gave their capspace to Maggette.
Clippers are supposedly going after Josh Smith.
No, the Clips know they can't get those guys unless they do something insane like offering Josh Smith Elton Brand money. They can get J. R. Smith because Denver is bleeding money.
really? josh smith? I doubt the Hawks dont match but it will be interesting to see.
Small chance we get JR imo. If I was the Spurs, I would concentrate on other free agents.
How much will they offer Josh Smith, do you know?
IMHO, they go after a big - especially after losing Brand. That is why I think they would be more compelled to go after AI, Okafor or Smith.
The Warriors now have Maggette, SJax, and Monta Ellis.
Why the would they go after another SG?
they love small ball
exactly ducks. They could very well play sjax at PFNellie is crazy
some of you doomsday Spurs fans just really chap my ass. Granted, it would be nice to get a good free agent to join the spurs, but all is not lost if we don't. I was all for us getting Damon and Finley, but neither(especially Damon) has impressed me very much. You never really know what you're gonna get until the seasons over, so anyone we get may be a dud. IMO, if Hill is anything like his stats show he is, he is better than anything left in the FA market and should be considered for the starting 2 guard position and a backup PG. Throw in the other draft picks and Ian and we have a good team. I will still be a Spurs fan just as I have been since 73. Win or lose. I think about 1/2 of the posters on this board jumped on the bandwagon only since the Spurs started winning championships and have never gone through the bad times. It really does make me sick reading some of your posts. Play the hand you're dealt and man up.![]()
If I were the Spurs I'd concentrate on getting Azubike from GSW. Solid defensive and offensive player, great character, hard worker, and very young. Has a lot of upside and potential to be a good role player in this league.
JR Smith is nothing but a head-case and I guarantee you whatever team gets him will regret it.
Why does everyone hype Azubuike so bad??? I do not get it. I watched almost every Warrior game and he did an ok job. He is no better than Finley for us and deserves no where near MLE money...
its the next best thing besides JR Smith
If we only get someone on a Najera/Delfino level, would it be too insane to say we could still look to a couple of our draft picks+Ian to make a big splash?
could be a long regular season and a short post season.

we're too good to get good picks, but too bad to compete with what we have for a championship (barring a healthy Manu and an efficient Tim Duncan and the odds of both of those happening from here on out is just remote quite honestly!)
dat's da truth !

Neither team will go after him, G State must keep its own FAs and they already have a glut at the wing, and the Clips just drafted SG with the 7th pick so I dont think smith has many teams that will be after him, Houston maybe, San Ant maybe, thats it!
You may be right on the money.
It could be that our best days are behind us.
I hope not.
