Ludden: Spurs offer deals to two centers

[Mr. Body]

Why are these guys getting any multiyear deals? I thought we were gonna sign one center to go with Javtokas and then next year dump him for Mahinmi.

That was my thinking. RJ had the tools to become a decent starting big man... or so I thought.

You have to give multiyear deals. No one of any talent signs anything else.

We should forget about Mahinmi for the time being. He's nowhere near ready and, when he is, the FO will inexplicably keep him in Europe to sign the next generation of 3rd string center on the Denver Nuggets. (The board will explode with the right-minders despairing over the lack of 'touch' and those thrashing about vainly trying to defend this FO on past glories.)

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

tomorrow is, isn't it ?

Either way we can still sign him, so why did we make TWO offers? And they are both MULTI-YEAR DEALS. What ever happened to the sign Mahinmi next year plan?

[Mr. Body]

What ever happened to the sign Mahinmi next year plan?

It was the plan on fan boards, never the front office.

[ShoogarBear]

Maybe he'll start reading this board, and get better ?

After all, it's been working that way for the rest of us . . .

So can we still sign Javtokas or not?

[ducks]

ian did only sign a one year contract overseas though

[picnroll]

My prediction, Butler goes to the T Wolves in a S&T doubly screwing the Spurs.

[Mr. Body]

So can we still sign Javtokas or not?

It's more than highly unlikely.

And he'll sign another one next summer... and then another one the summer after, most likely...
