    Wonder if Kendrick Perkins would be available for minimum. Would be a nice backup center bully.

    Starters
    1 Parker
    2 Green
    3 Leonard
    4 Aldridge
    5 Duncan

    Bench
    1 FA
    1/2 Mills
    2/3 Ginobili
    3 Anderson
    4 FA
    4/5 Diaw
    5 FA

    Hence the reported interest in West, Stoudemire, and Lin. Unless Ginobili is just done, I think he comes back now for one more season. Joseph will be a cap casualty.
    So that mean Joseph, Bonner, Ayers and Williams are gone

    Isn't LJC coming over bc he can force the Spurs hand?

    Also, will make summer league very interesting this year. DeShaun Thomas night have shot. Too bad Bertans go to injured; This would have been a good time for him to come. Lastly, we had to see if the Hawks sent us anything decent in the Splitter trade. Between those options and Livio you have roster slots 13-15.

    Oh, and Bonner . . .

    This thread should be re led: "If we can get him for the minimum, why not?"

    Absolute best case scenario:

    Ginobili returns for room exception.
    West signs for min.

    or Ginobili retires for a few months, returns in December/Jan for the min.
    West signs for room exception.

    Ginobili, Mills, Diaw, West will be one of a bench. Spurs still need a back up SF and PG though.

    Right now the Spurs bench looks pretty thin with only Diaw and Mills as the only legitimate players. The Spurs still have a lot of work to do. They only have the room exception and vet minimum to work with.

    The Spurs need to renounce their rights to Manu then re-sign him to the room mid-level exception of $2.8M.

    West is still possible.

    Ellington should take a look at that contract D. Green got and realize he doesn't want to play for some organizations. Dude could showcase his skills in the Spurs system.

    I know a lot of people hate him, but I'm perfectly fine with bringing Bonner back for another 1-year minimum deal to be the 5th big He already knows the system and can stretch the floor...I know he only shot ~37% last year from 3 (noticeably down from his career average), but that's still better than what you'll find out on the market. Stretch bigs who will play for the minimum aren't exactly a common commodity.

    And Atlanta is just sending a pick or two, so the Spurs don't have to worry about making room for anyone, correct?

    That's the rumor. With the cap coming in $2 mil higher I think they could take back a small contract.

    Spurs have to actually offer Wayne first.

    I'd like also a defensive C
    With Splitter and Baynes gone we only have Duncan that can play that role

    And it's not David West or Amare that will help on that

    Would be really nice to see what ATL is giving SA in the deal. My guess it's draft rights or maybe a pick, doubtful it's a player at this point.

    If Ginobili retires, it opens up a huge hole, tbh..

    He was still pretty good, last year, and still by far the best playmaker on the team..really hoping he doesn't, there isn't a realistic option to replace him..

    You would go from only needing another spot-up shooter and/or backup SF on the perimeter, to needing that + a playmaker(which is very difficult to find for cheap)..

    I'm assuming that Bonner is a given. Who else could we get as a 5th big for the minimum that could actually contribute meaningfully in spot minutes? Unless we have a prospect to groom, I don't see any better alternatives.

    Could the Hawks be sending over Tavares? They signed him just after the trade was announced.

    Pretty sure an ATL reporter confirmed that there are no current Hawks players involved in the deal. So it's either a pick or rights to an international player.

    I'm guessing there's no way it could be Tavares, unfortunately.

    Well, just read a tweet that said West for the Room Exception is in play. Really wonder if that means Manu is gone? No way Manu plays for the min, right?

    Hmmm...did they sign him or just agree to terms?

    They couldn't have signed him during the moratorium period, right? Or does that not apply to international players?

    Who tweeted that? Could've just been complete speculation.
