Spurs get Aldridge, get David West to walk away from 11mil, re-sign Kawhi, get Danny Green to stay, Manu to come back, Timmy to come back, and Porky to work out again.

What a dream offseason tbh.

Does this mean we could have kept CuJo? Ah well... at least this makes 100% certain the last remaining good PG on the team will be back.

[ducks]

that is higher then it was going to be

[dabom]

This means we can keep patty.

Huge jump in cap and tax. Will benefit under the cap and tax teams big time. Not sure the total effect yet but it's a game changer for teams

Dont think the Spurs would have offered anything close to the deal Cojo got from the raptors.

[SnakeBoy]

So how much money do the Spurs have left to spend?

[DPG21920]

Guarantees Patty is staying (unless they can trade him for something they find more important - doubtful), that they won't pay tax (most likely that will be the case) & that they might be able to get a player back in the ATL trade for this year (assuming Tim might take a little less than the 6M reported)

Does this mean West can get more than Vet min?

[Aztecfan03]

probably give any extra to duncan. if not, probably about a million dollars.

We actually could have, since we wouldn't have had to renounce the Larry Bird rights we had to him... not that we would have matched it, but we legally could have...

[Das Texan]

holy .

good news!

[Mugen]

give the rest to Duncan.

David Aldridge ‏@daldridgetnt · 2m2 minutes ago
$70M cap for '15-'16 even bigger than $69M number teams were working off of at start of the week. Means slightly bigger max deals for FAs.

If anything from ATL, I want that tall young guy. But I really want Cady Lalanne on the team this year. He's big and a heck of a shot blocker (and a fouler, but so was Baynes). And we have a gaping hole at center, despite our armada of great PFs. Also, we're not trading away Patty, that would leave a black hole at the 1 position, and Manu is too old to play both PG and SG all the time.

[Aztecfan03]

Does this mean West can get more than Vet min?

don't think so. don't think we would be enough under the cap to fit a contract that is higher than vet. min.
