No reason too..Spurs will put the amnesty in there back pocket and use it next season in my opinion. If they do use it, its because Leonard is the real deal.
Will the Spurs use the amnesty clause on RJ? I think they will but will wait till 11:59 lol

Pretty sure he's going to be staying with the team if they have waited this long. He's been doing interviews and taking pictures at media day, so that's a decent indicator that he's with them for the season.
this season another wasted year
thank you duncan for your 4 championships
RJ will start at SF on opening night.
Somebody would have to offer a trade for RJ to be gone this season in my opinio..not leaving otherwise
If you bet a dollar on it ... I guess you will receive a dollar ...
...and will hopefully play himself out of that position less than 20 games in.
If they don't pull the trigger, he will spend the entire year sulking on the bench and bringing the team morale down. This team doesn't have the talent to be in le contention anyway but the distraction of keeping him will cause them to probably miss the playoffs. Nice way to waste one of Duncan's last years in the league...
RJ isn't a sulker. He's been nothing but professional since he's been in SA, even if he sucks and doesn't fit the system.
agree 100%..His teamates and coaches seem to like him alot..
Manu hugging him in front of the cameras confirmed this .. he definitely does not disturb the locker room.
Amen. The fact the RJ was working out with Leonard over the offseason was a surprise and a testimony to his professionalism.
As of now, and until Leonard is fully ready to take over, RJ is the best and only available fit for the Spurs SF position. No amnesty.
He's never been psyched out with an amnesty by the FO before. He already plays with absolutely no confidence when Pop force feeds him minutes, how does knowing his team really didn't want him help at all?
RJ is here to stay. he knows the system and isn't going anywhere.
Everyone in the locker room likes him, he knows the system, and is more talented and better than just about every free agent SF we could've gotten. He may not be exactly what we want, but he's going to have to do. He got better last year, even if we still thought he sucked, and I think he'll be better this year.
i dont think so...and i am sure novak could be our last signing of this offseason
as of now, i would cry if they used the amnesty. im tryin to warm myself back up to the idea of richard jefferson coming back
At this point, RJ isn't going anywhere. Sorry, haters.
I have no problem keeping RJ as there just is not anyone better at this point. My only hope is that the signing of Novak will somehow convince Pop to let go of Bonner. Just let go.
This.
Some people just don't get it.
Makes sense to not Amnesty him, whoever the Spurs would get as his replacement I guarantee you they wouldn't be as good as RJ.
