    It's strange to see Barry giving a deadline for his answer instead of giving an answer.
    Either if he toying with one team or making a choice is really complicate for him.

    In any case, I have a hard time to understand what happens.
    Is Barry bitter against Spurs and want a little payback ?
    Is Barry following a CIA Pop plan to avoid a collusion accusation ?
    Is is that complicate for Barry to choose against Spurs and Suns ?
    Or, maybe he is waiting to see how something else plays out. (can't imagine what that could be, but who knows?)

    The deadline is so that he can get his family on the plane and in the air before the lynch mobs of rejected Spurs fans show up at his house to exact some payback!!

    I really hope Barry comes back on so many levels but I can already see Ploto's posts if he doesn't.

    QG - Please direct Bones to this thread. Surely if he sees my last 2 posts he will see my infallible logic and stay.

    There's very little doubt that in the remainder of this season, he'll get more cash if he goes to Phoenix. He'll be eligible for more games there and will get a bigger fraction of the veteran's minimum because of that.

    If it's true that the Spurs offered an additional year at the minimum, then Barry will likely get more over the life of a new contract if he stays in San Antonio.

    Ok Brent. You're in the twilight of your career and are a multi-millionaire with two world championships. All you have to decide is which team you want to take a vet minimum deal for a year or two until you ride off into the sunset. in decide already!

    What about playoff money? Spurs will go deeper in the playoffs than D'Antoni.

    FWIW from the Sun board on RealGM


    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Rick Barry is on KTAR right now talking about Brent. He says that Brent would be better off basketball wise here in Phoenix than in San Antonio. Says he would love to see Brent here and would be a great fit here. However, he says, the San Antonio community and the Spurs love Brent and his wife and that the decision by Brent will most likely be made by his wife. In the regards of whether SHE wants to be here or if SHE would care if he's here or if SHE wants him to stay in San Antonio.

    Rick Barry incurred the wrath of Spurs fan when David Robinson was drafted by recommending D-Rob sit out become a free agent and sign with the Lakers. He finally got a bit of a reprieve when one of his sons signed here and became a fan favorite. Now this.

    Barry (Rick) your on the list again.

    Playoff money creates a minimal difference. In 2003, the Spurs had the best record in the league (there's a bonus for that), played in all 4 rounds of the playoffs, and won the le. As a team, they collected about $2.5 million to be divided into shares. If they awarded only 20 full shares (unlikely), the payout would have come to about $128,000 per share. I'm guessing that they give out many more shares and that the per player take from playoff money is relatively small as NBA money goes. (It's huge money to most of the rest of us, of course!!) The only point at which there's a huge disparity for having success is for the teams that reach the Finals. The difference between getting knocked out in the 2nd round and getting knocked out in the conference finals is quite small from a playoff money standpoint.

    If its true, then the chances of the Spurs resigning him went up because Jon Barry has said a milion times "Erin loves San Antonio and wouldn't want to go anywhere"

    I can see it now:

    Brent makes his announcement on the 10:00 news in San Antonio during a sit-down with Don Harris in which he repeatedly says that his decision depends entirely upon whether Don Harris will put his journalistic integrity on the line and immediately demand that the Spurs retire #17 at the end of Brent's career. Don, having a fateful decision for Spurs fans depending on his answer, realizes that he lacks the man love for Brent Barry that he has for Avery Johnson, hems and haws and Brent announces that he's going to Phoenix and walks off the stage shouting "Suck on it, Pop" and "Up yours, Flopbili!"

    Somewhere, ploto rejoices and Suns fans spend an evening feeling as though they finally got over on the Spurs.

    OK....Take your time Brent. I don't think there's any rush to get you back on the court.

    I wish he'd spit it out already.

    If he chooses the Spurs he can return 30 days from what? The trade day or when he was waived or what?

    so, if Brent does come back to the Spurs, how many times would that have made QueGee wrong in his time here?

    Serious Question.
