I know he's older but he's long and athletic and blocks shots and rebounds well and will be cheap.

Jeezus, he's 38, two ing years older than Tim, and two years removed from even blocking two shots per game. Pass.
Bet he retires.
Been a long time since he's had a full season. Still a good shot blocker and rebounder at only 20mins per game. Would rather draft a young shot blocker but he'd be better than nothing
I bet the Spurs sign him for the minimum.
I'll bet he doesn't sign that contract.
tbh, I'd rather give Malcolm Thomas a full summer league and training camp.
A good back up back up plan.
I bet he does
lol he really will as much as I hate to say
A couple of years too late to make a big impact tbh. Still, wouldn't be a bad move.
At age 38, it hurts to play basketball. Like, every day. Guys who are used to making 8 figures per year aren't going to do it for a mill and change.
I'll do an ELE bet with you if you disagree, though.
Ya the chances he plays for the minimum are slim to none. IF he could be had for it, he wouldn't be terrible insurance as a 4-5 big. But at this point in his career he is a guy to spot your starter some rest, not make an meaningful impact on a contender.
Tracy Mcgrady says hi.
Exactly if any team pays a 38 year old there full MLE, or mini MLE then more power to that team. Houston is bringing that Dontas guy over, and will probably draft a big man so I see no use for Camby anymore for them.
Bigs are like MLB left handed pitchers. They'll always be given more development time, they'll always be over valued, and they'll always be overpaid. TMac took minimum because NBA wing players literally grow on trees.
Either this is a pretty funny misuse of the word literally, or someone needs to sit you down and explain the birds and the bees.
Yeah I have no idea why Shaq took the minimum two years ago then
Camby is one of the few free agents who I think the Spurs might reach out to. They've tried to trade for him a lot in the last five years or so. On top of that, if the Spurs want a shotblocker and rebounder in the middle, Camby is still elite in those areas.
He's old, offensively challenged and was always overrated (
Never understood how a guy with solid bank wants to play for relatively nothing later in life instead of retiring. If his lifestyle is that extravagant that he's in the hole, that's one thing, but to be financially set and not enjoy the rest of your life doing things other than work, that seems like the ultimate dream. Then again, these guys love the game.
Ahh Camby...the ST love that will never die. I can see it now...
2025 Free Agent: Retired Marcus Camby
You think we could talk him into making a comeback? I know he's 51 but rumor has it he's in great shape and playing every day. I'm sure he would accept the MLE. What do you guys think?!?!?!?
He's going to have the next 40-50 years to not play basketball. Might as well play until the wheels fall off.

The unrestricted free-agent center, Marcus Camby, has narrowed his choices to the New York Knicks, Miami Heat, San Antonio Spurs, Boston Celtics, and the Dallas Mavericks, a league source told CSNNW.com.
Unless Spurs trade away Splitter (they might be scared about what he will get next summer as a FA when you see what Asik go), Camby doesn't really make sense for them. I don't see Pop being fine with playing on a regular basis Camby alongside Duncan or Splitter.
