Plus it doesn't look like the Spurs offered five years. And Przybilla and Mrs just had a baby recently and he was talking about wanting long term stability.
His role as Shaqs is what he'll play.

Um, that part was a joke. I always say that.
Yeah, coz we know more than Pop does and that email sure would set him straight!
But Pop did make the small ball mistake last year.
I'm not sure it was a "mistake".Um, that part was a joke. I always say that.

Maybe if he sticks with our bigs we don't get to a game 7 up 3 with seconds left in regulation.
If we stay pat at the center position, we'll won't beat the Heat in the finals, let alone the Mavs.
Cheap? I think they've learned from Malik and Rasho that long term contracts for mediocre talent isn't... GOOD!
Maybe Nazr won't TO as much with the new ball!
I'd love for someone to show me how the Spurs are being cheap.
If they didn't offer Przybilla five years and they aren't going to spend the full MLE elsewhere, then I'd say they are a little too frugal. But that hasn't happened yet.
Did Ludden say they aren't gonna offer the full MLE elsewhere?
I wouldn't freak out yet.
Guys like Evans and Pargo will be around in July and August.
I am not freaking out at all.
I think the Spurs have a couple trades in them.
Not you per se!!!!
Damn these emotionless message boards.
I'm suspecting we will sign Javtokas for the new season. Trade for Magloire and start him with Javtokas backing him up.
^ I wouldn't mind Magloire for 1 year not a shot blocker though. However I think he makes $8-9 million and Milwaukee would want something decent in return.

Honestly I think Joel would work out pretty nicely for us. The big thing is rebounding. I even remember in the 2005 playoffs we had huge rebounding problems against the Pistons. It's not like the Spurs don't know they need to fix the rebounding.
Joel would be a uva lot better than resigning Turnovers 'R Us. There's a chance we could get Joel but I think he'll end up taking the Pistons offer. We'll see.
Oh and F small ball.
How do you defend the mavs with pryz?
They better not be done by a loooong shot because saying this is a good start is one major league streeeettttchhhhh.
I'm not crazy about Nzrr resigning, in fact I'd prefer he didn't and let the Spurs suffer and have to address that problem effectively but without Nazr and Rasho who assumes even a minisucle amount of post offense after Duncan? The only big that can provide any offense whatsoever is Horry the 36 year old fading big.
Who gives Parker relief or do we ride him again even at the end of the season when his body's breaking down and he needs games off but the Spurs can't afford to give him any. Who scores when Manu and Duncan take their seat on the bench? Is it all on Parker and the erractic Finley? What happens when any big goes down? We don't even have to discuss what happens when manu goes down or we lose any of our big three. How did The Spurs address their long 3 issue? What if Javtokas equals Oberto, Pop has said he's a bench player?
Things may change but right now you have to be Pollyanna to think this team is a 60 or even a 55 win team. And that's if they stay healthy. Other teams in the West have added strong pieces, not an untested Euro rookie with no offense whatsoever and Matt Bonner who was fourth big on a lottery team. Pop and Buford have a of a lot of work to do or this won't be a good season.
the spurs are a contender and guaranteed to make the 2nd round with parker/duncan/manu. why spend any more on the team? why do you think the front office is really about winning?
I say we keep Nazr. The guy makes a few bonehead plays and gets butterfingers at times but he now knows the system and wont have to share time with Rasho. I still think this guy can be good if you light a fire under his ass. I think bringing over Javtokas will help adjust Nazrs at ude.
you think pop has been going easy on him the last season and a half? i don't think anyone is going to light a fire under his ass, and from seeing him on defense the last season and a half he obviously has no clue about the system, offensively or defensively. that could be forgiven if he had actually done anything else since the 05 playoffs, but he hasn't.
if they are reluctant to spend on a center can they at least spend on a small forward?
The NBA's new official ball will make you smarter, lower your taxes, clean your car, improve your chances with the ladies, and keep Nazr from turning it over so much.
I can't believe they tried low balling Joel. ing stupid.
Welcome to reality.
The Spurs won 63 games last year with Rasho and Nazr tag teaming the center position.
Right now if things don't change you're going to replace them with Javtokas and Oberto and a 56 year old Robert Horry.
That doesn't exactly instill confidence in the front office.
If they're being cheap I'm going to have to join Marcus on the Peter Holt is a cheap crusade.
