Good news tbh

It wasn't posted and the fact they are not close is news worthy imo. Cry to a mod if it bothers you that much
Spurs probably wanted an Aldridge-type extension, where he opts in and gets another couple of years at $27-30 mil, but he's absolutely right to test next year's market. Some stupid team like Knicks or Hornets will give him a max or near max contract and the Spurs should move on. Doubt they'd trade him unless the season is going terribly and they get a decent offer at the trade deadline.
given his mental weakness I have my doubts this will lead to good decisions by him on the court
He's too flawed of a player to get a max contract. Maybe if he shows more commitment on the defensive end or improves his 3pt shooting volume and accuracy then maybe he might be worth it.
Knicks specifically used up cap space that could be used for this summer because the FAs are trash. Hornet's might be a option if they have the space.
Giving him the L A extension would actually be a good price for him, he'd make something like $27.6, $31.6 and $34.6. That's less than 25% of the cap each of the next 3 seasons but the fit issue makes it less than a no-brainer.

I can't wait until the Spurs have moved on from this DeMar situation. It honestly makes me feel a little anxious and the thought about extending him to a max contract is ridiculous. Please trade him!
great news
I'm not sure the Spurs should even sign him. This season will be a good test to see if he can adjust his game to the modern NBA. No more excuses or "A matter of choosing to take 3's".
don't forget the Raptors, they will have about 60 Million in cap space next offseason. They will offer him the max for sure
Absolutely this!
Do you always have to be a got?
This is legit the best news for the Spurs since they won it all in 2014.
I'm completely serious, DeBrick is a disaster.
Pretty sure that isn't true, they extended Lowry and Pascal for a combined $63 million for next season, dont see them tying up their books for a reunion for DeRozan- if they even can.
if he wants that big an offer, he needs to show that he can hit the three (or, , even make some attempts) consistently and play defense. he's not worth any max until he can demonstrate this.
Why would they want him back at max money after salary dumping him already?
lot of time to get it done obviously but the fact the he and the spurs are "far apart" (assuming derozan wants the max) tells me maybe the FO has learned from the last couple years. time will tell, but that murray contract was a steal so maybe they pulled their collective heads out of their asses
Getting rid of Derozan and not having to extend him was probably just as sweet as the championship for the Raptors, not sure why they would max him next summer just because a subset of re ed Toronto fans miss him...
It literally doesn't matter if they have no assets left to show for trading him away. They got a championship and don't have to their cap space for the next 4-5 years and all it cost them was Jakob Poetl and a late 1st rounder....
The trade was a 360 dunk for Masai. If the Mute would have re-signed then it would have been a 360 between the legs off the backboard dunk but they still absolutely crushed the trade

Don't sign him and use his expiring as trade value would be the best decision.
Sweet. I hope he goes balls to the wall for his contract and we're able to S+T for a potential "today's NBA" scorer since DJ and DW aren't going to be those guys.
I wonder where people think we're going to get buckets from once the Spurs get out from under DMR. LMA isn't the answer, nor should even be thought of one beyond this year.
As fashionable as it is to hate on the guy, there isn't a player more essential to the Spurs this season than DeMar. Aside from being the typical ST-"fan" schtick of rooting against players and the even stupider "TANK" fans, people should be excited, this could/should light a fire under his ass and help us reach the "sleeper" potential we have.
He could want to go back to the Raptors---Spurs have a pretty good record in according to player's wishes on something like that if it could be worked out---or he could hate the idea of going back to a team that got rid of him for a better player for one year. I don't know if Raptors have anyone to trade thh. You trade engineers could come up with a trade
You are such a
