He's not Manu but he's also getting paid a fraction of what prime 6MOY Manu would've gotten paid in today's NBA.
The Spurs are going to get ing nothing for Aldridge. I figured they'd at least be able to salary dump him and get Paul Millsap or George Hill. Neither an upgrade but at least something.

I hope not, at least as a rotation player. A one year contract wouldnt be the worst thing in the world as next year is sort of a lost year. I just don't want Pop to play him over younger guys.
He never was a good playoff performer/shooter, IMO.
Don't focus too much on 'back up pg'. If we get 4 yr of production from MVPatty playing off White like we have from doing so with Manu I'm very happy. Good age, Spur guy, sensible contract tbh.
I'm glad Patty is staying and that's a decent contract considering 2017-18 rates. Iggy is meeting with the Spurs at midnight, so it will be interesting what shakes out from it. The Spurs certainly have guys who can play the PG position now. Patty will likely return to getting more minutes at the 2 this coming season.
Many see Derrick White as a G-Leaguer but he's 23 and seems to have some ability to score, get to line, and make a few plays. So the lead guard and wing positions may turn out okay...depending on additional FA action.
If the offseason goes south, the Spurs can always play 5-out alignments and let Kawhi do his thing every trip.
Why would it mean that?
They should have found their balls and waited him out. And if someone else signs him, so what? They still have White and Murray and can add a Beno to hold over instead of wasting cap for 4 years.
Helped what? He was putrid in the OKC series and wasn't a game breaker in the finals either. He had one great finals game after Manu and Kawhi brought us back into game 5 after being down big early. Did anyone actually watch him in those playoffs? He didn't really do that much. He only had one great game.
Give Chris Bosh a call. We need a cheap MEGA value deal.
Where on Earth does White find minutes? What's his path, because I don't see one unfortunately.
What a ing idiot.
Hopefully he doesn't hurt himself again and regret passing up all that money. What a ing idiot, indeed.
Bang for buck. They must know Hill will be over priced. Teague just went to the twolves... I was good with dejaunte... but true to form - the Spurs have their comfort zone with veterans... here is to hoping that shooting % goes up.
Thought he for sure was gone. $12.5M/per isn't bad though. Just kind of odd with the Derrick White pick. We have a lot of Guards to work with.
BUT... if we re-sign Tony next summer, then it makes no sense.
What a moron
My dude Clipper Nation and 140 putting work. Patty is a bona fide champion.
Well at least they're not signing Derrick Rose. I guess one good thing about tonight.
Man I ing love patty but the these moves arent making sense at all they draft a combo guard who doesn't have much upside but is "ready-to-play" now, it was looking like Murray is gonna be given keys next season, and we give this fat paycheck to patty? Yeah the last contract was a discount but what the is this
They've locked up a guy who can't stay on the court against the Warriors. Livingston will continue to dump on him.
He couldn't even guard Austin Rivers.
holy yes
