philly could have had him.
Why would anyone care? For cap purposes he's getting paid $5.5 million, that's it. Give him $30m for all I care, it's not my money and it makes no difference whatsoever for the team.

Manu wouldn't have lasted more than 20-30 games with that mash unit.
Manu made the Spurs match their offer or he was gone
so loyal
Spurs max extended Porker when he was declining in 2014.
Wow, that Woj report said Philly had 16-17 million offer. SA initially offered 3, to try to keep Boban. Manu was listening but SA got to 14.

If $14m is triple then its fair to say we offered around $4.5m, still makes no difference to the cap. Makes no sense not to match and frankly it'd be a travesty if we didn't since a) it still makes no difference to acquiring talent and b) Manu has consistently taken cap friendly deals, loyalty goes both ways.
Yeah, $3m discount for the family...
Today's signings
Boban rolling in his grave right now....
Today's Sixers
And we couldn't unload Tony? His stock must be very very low.

next year Spurstalk threads between the Porky and Manu s
Yeah, my ignore list is going to double in size.next year Spurstalk threads between the Porky an Manu s
The salary cap went from 70 mil to 94mil. That's about a 34% increase so you need to adjust for that. Also, the cap is going to have a larger increase than usual again next year, although not as much as this year, so muti-year contracts are going to be on the high side to adjust for that. I find that when you use a 34% increase as a baseline it helps you get a grasp of the numbers. Even still though, some of the money being throw around is ridiculous. People get over payed every off season but not like this. Because there is so much money out there teams are being forced to overpay for the guys they want(unless your the lakers). It won't be like this when the cap situation stabilizes.I just don't get this new cap situation, tbh.
yea Manu, get that money. the Manu haters. Manu haters didn't do to help win 4 chips. While Manu was busy getting it done on the big stages, Ginobili haters were busy beating their meat.
So the cap goes up 24 million dollars, and the Spurs think they can a)Hold up everything to try to make a pitch to Durant, b)Sign Pau Gasol as a backup plan for a 10 million dollar discount, c)Match a bloated offer for a backup center who they never trusted to play in any big games or serious minutes, and d)Oh-by-the-way throw a minimum offer to their team leader and expect him to just take it "for the good of the team".
That, my friends, is optimism.
I can't make threads bro, , can't even check my notificationsnext year Spurstalk threads between the Porky and Manu s
if Manu gets injured or catch Zika in Brazil
you better get unpinked for the start o next season..plenty of fodder, plentyI can't make threads bro, , can't even check my notifications
Woj said SA's first offer was 3M. That would have definitely made an impact to the cap. To think that is realistic is another thing and in the end, once SA decided they were keeping Manu it stopped mattering like you said.
