Marion top two options are Spurs and Rockets for full MLE

[Seventyniner]

Funny that he wore #7 there. That's how I used to shoot when I was 7 years old.

[look_at_g_shred]

False hope yet again.

[TheyCallMePro]

Marion is old and washed up. He shoots the ugliest 3 I've ever seen-- he literally hoists it from his chest like a woman and prays it goes in. He played horrible vs the Spurs in the playoffs this year. He's a "big name" with NO GAME left. Don't want him. Don't want him at all.

[BackHome]

You know after Houston ed up and that they can take him from Dallas they will do it. He is just playing the Spurs ticket to get more money...

Where does tspence26 stand on this?

[cd021]

You must have meant Miami.

Marion never played in Charlotte.

Diaw not Marion.

that. Don't want an old ass Maid Marion. He's not picking us anyways.

This.

[poeticism707]

Most are seriously underrating Marion.

He is still and elite perimeter at the 3,

his slashing is serviceable.

The open looks he'd get in the Spurs system from 3,

and he'd improve considerably.

Getting Marion for a 2 year MLE would be

the best the Spurs can hope for

since Gasol is off the table,

and an absolute coup for the Spurs.

The Spurs with Marion would would have the potential to

be even better offensively,

but more importantly,

considerably better defensively.

Just nasty.

Offer the full MLE for two years.

All in.

Misogynist much? I know it's a phrase, but the WNBA has some great shooters and they have excellent releases. It came off a little bad, and besides, it doesn't matter how he shoots it if it works for him, tbh. In his prime he was a deadly shooter, and even he still can go off (see game 2 of the Mavs/Spurs series).

I'd love to have Marion as a bench option, he's scrappy, has a solid offensive game, and plays solid D. I think he probably signs with the Rockets, though, cause he'll likely have a bigger role there. I would think we'd have the best offseason of any team in the league if we find a way to bring Marion aboard.

i wouldn't mind marion but just not for an MLE amount ... or anything longer than a year

[Obi Juan Kenobi]

Would like Marion but not for the full MLE, would rather the team try to get Aminu and Okafor/Blatche with their exceptions...

I had a feeling it was all speculation. Marion might wish the Spurs were interested, but my guess is they are not, and especially not for their MLE.

[32fastest]

I remember being extremely bummed/pissed when Oden chose the heat over us last year , sounds stupid now. I don't worry too much that Gasol went to the bulls and I certainly won't care if this fool goes to the Rockets. If we get him cool, if not him. I'm confident Pop, the coaches and Timmy will get us back on top. If Spurs get out of the West that's 6.

[Cry Havoc]

So, to the people who say we don't want/need Marion, who else are you into signing? Dude is one of the best FAs left on the market and we have the money to use not against the cap.

Just think if Manu or Leonard is hurt for any appreciable amount of time. With Marion our depth chart is fine. Otherwise, we could be hurting for a while.

I like the idea.

Parker/Patty/Cojo
Green/Manu/Patty
Kawhi/Marion/Anderson
Duncan/Diaw/Marion
Splitter/Diaw/Baynes

He's no T-Spence - but then again, who is? That dude is unparalleled.

[TimDunkem]

I'm beginning to regret bringing TSpence here.

I'm beginning to regret bringing TSpence here.

No big deal.

dude sux. Shot is ass.
