If the Spurs haven't signed Quinndary to a two-way yet, they have that two-way available to sign Parker. It would make Parker a Spurs player, who could suit up for the first home game, then retire as a Spur at the end of the game.
It would mean compensating QW in some other way, until the 2-way can be given to him after that first home game.
It would be funny to "recall" Tony from Austin.
I don't think that is the purpose of the two way deal tho. I think you can only sign guys who are in the first 4 years in the league (rook deal equivalents) to such a deal bc it's a player development deal.
Quin may have already been signed to the 2way, as well. I am not sure about this tho, but it doesn't matter for Tony's purposes.
Free agent Dorian Finney-Smith has agreed to a three-year, $12M deal to re-sign with the Dallas Mavericks, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium.
thats a pretty good deal
The Boston Celtics and French center Vincent Poirier have agreed to a two-year deal, league sources tell @TheAthleticNBA @Stadium. Poirier is a 6-foot-11 center who will provide additional front court depth in Boston.
I never paid much attention to the 2 way stuff, but I looked it up and you're right.
So, heck, no 2 way for Tony. Pity.
It will be interesting to see if pop’s typical lineup will be with two bigs : lma and poetl or with aldridge at the 5. Offcourse that could depend on the opposite team and change from game to game.
But if we go with two bigs, we need a better insurance than Eubanks and the other spots could be too loaded.
Last year the nets played an extra small ball so caroll was more a 4, I see him as a 3 and Rudy more a 4 but we’ll see.
Think it was just postulation by Evan Cohen on NBA radio, but said he wondered if the Lakers lose out on Kwahi, that if they would like to look at a 2nd tier player like Derozan as a salary dump the spurs with the spurs sending a 1st round draft pick .... Can't for the life of me even conceive that ever happening, esp between those 2 teams.
Metu for right now remains an enigma. It's too bad he got injured at a very inopportune time. I can't predict how that goes with him, but I think he needed to show something this summer and in preseason. Not that the Spurs would cut him just to cut him, but it's always possible for someone else to impress in preseason and make a case for himself. Bryn for example made the team with no roster spots available bc Pop and Chip were absolutely sold on "the Magazine" in practices. We just don't know there is someone like that in the preseason roster yet, but Metu needs to show up and I don't know how his foot injury will affect his readiness.
I agree with you on Bryn. As much as I was critical of him previously (and mostly bc he was overplayed) he really improved and stepped up his game. He may play less minutes overall than last season, bc Spurs have a lot of guards and they may stay healthy this year and hopefully also be good, but Bryn will still play. I do think someone is going to end up being "CoJo" in the team. That is, a guy who absolutely can play in the rotation and eventually would do that elsewhere, but in a team currently too deep in guards his minutes varied widely from game to game. Who will that be, I don't know. I am hoping they are ready to move on from Belli... (bc Mills culture won't be traded as we all know.) And yet, there were times that Pop definitely preferred Belli over Davis, so really I don't know.
The Coffee Gang has gotten to Keldon Johnson. I can't believe Pop's allowing this disease to spread through the team.
Derozen isn't a salary dump the guy still produces at a close to all star value. No way I'm giving up a 1st just to get rid of him
Sean Marks and the Nets front office are 'light years ahead' of everybody: https://www.netsdaily.com/2019/7/2/2...ed-a-superteam
Lmao the Lakers final and only trade asset is kuzma right? Cubbard is bare!
he's much better than milutinov btw...
Yea, I am no expert either. Some of it I picked up from Chinook and others talking about it when it entered into effect.
But I also looked up last year how the Spurs were able to offer it to a player I considered a vet, Josh Huestis (drafted 2014). Turned out Huestis had been signed to that weird deal with OKC where he agreed to get stashed with no NBA contract for his first year after the draft and thus didn't become an NBA rook until 2015-16. It's a sidenote, way out of left field here... but he just happened to be on the 4th season after his "rook" one last season and I remembered it. He wouldn't be able to sign a 2 way deal this season or from now on.
I saw Poirier few times and I’m really not sure of that.
Sorry. If they want a fall back position borderline all star player, we aren't sending the pick, they are. There's no need to salary dump a player who puts up 21/6/6.
They better be sending out more than 1 IMO. And after the NOP deal, i'm not sure that they have first's to trade. Remember the Stepien Rule.
Good luck PauWtf is this guy in serious. Give us the 5 mil back you bum
I believe every dollar Pau gets this year up to the $5M comes off the Spurs books.
Demar has reached out to Cousins per Shams on NBATV
Spurs "Dead Cap" of $5,074,856.
please no
If it's for the minimum, why not?
...

But seriously, Pop might murder Boogie.
We gettin Cousins??Tbh I’m all for that. If any coach can do it, Pop can. He must be tired of losing.
Come on RC/Pop. I’ll run Murray, White, Demar, Aldridge, Cousins with anybody. You can even put Carroll in there for shooting instead of Demar.
