Sounds like he was really tired of being a mediator for Indiana's problems.

George hill probably hit on him
Good stuff. Thanks.
I still can't believe it.
Best signing of the offseason
Great article - thanks for posting.
One thing confused me though:
"It took him six years to buy a new car and a new house upon entering the NBA"
"David West does drive a Lexus now. He bought it over a decade ago"
Am I having a brainfart, or does that not make sense at all? West entered the league in 2003.
After taxes, probably more like $6M or less. And he might be able to make that up in his post player career by having the prestige of being the selfless guy who did what it took to win a ring.
Maybe, the Lexus is used?
Yea, more likely something got lost in translation.
"I find myself staring at Tim," David West tells Yahoo Sports. "I have just been trying to find little corners to watch him – and I just stare at him."
Let Matt Barnes try some ....
I thought the comment about Tim practicing corner threes was interesting. Just normal expansion of his game, or something they may actually look at in one of their Aldridge sets?
"People are talking about what I gave up," West told Yahoo Sports, "but not as much about what I've gained here."
David West is a bad ass, plain and simple. He embodies the idea that is the Spurs. Spurs do it well. Everything. But they aren't perfect, but compared to everyone else? That lore of the Spurs way is actually embodied in it's truest form by West. He loves the Spurs. Moreso, he loves the idea of the Spurs. The idea of pure basketball, simple but hard working & team first. Whether its all true (it's not), in David's mind it is.
He is going to give it his all and he's going to be great for the team. People will love him. He will have struggles as he's older now and in a really new role, but damn he's cool as .
"People are talking about what I gave up," West told Yahoo Sports, "but not as much about what I've gained here."
Truth.
I said he's tough like SJax but without all the BS.
Is he married?
Has he ever heard of Tony Parker?
david west will protect tp when someone flattens him going for a layup
Can't wait to see him on the court. Love his at ude already.
gonna take a lot of work to flatten parker's fat ass.
is it weird i feel more excited about west than i do aldridge?
west feels like a natural fit and i think he's gonna be fun as to watch.
It's weird if you're not one of the Kawhi fan boys. Aldridge is definitely the more pivotal pick-up.
Do you noticed something when reading this?Is he married?
Has he ever heard of Tony Parker?
David West:
"I've already been picking [Manu Ginobili's] brain, asking questions. Asking Tim questions. I needed that."
call it a gut feeling but i think people will be down on aldridge after a little while, the high was too much and i just feel like we're gonna be a little disappointed....some of the stuff he talks about, just the vibe i get, i think it's gonna be a rockier beginning than most people are anticipating
i look for west to come out strong and perform above expectations
