Spurs gave him a 2 year deal but had to change it and make it 3 years so that the spurs could sign Marcus Morris
Agree. Begs the question: WTF was this FO thinking sinking 3 years into him?

Why can’t the Spurs reel in one of these already half paid for models? Who’s out there just itching to step our way? Lol
It's good in the long run.
More like, in theory. In reality, it makes no difference. Celtics, Rockets, Raptors, etc. treat players like meat, yet don't have a public laundry list of player relation problems, while having the media eating out of the palm of their proverbial hand.
Just bad bad decision, but they have no choice as a sign and trade requires 3 years of contract. Damn how I wish they did nothing during the summer or just sign Trey and call it an off-season, the Spurs probably would be better off.
Not really, they had been doing it over a decade and till date I had not seen any FA sign with the Spurs bcos of it.
Was talking about players that barely played despite fan expectations to the contrary (though you’re probably right Van Exel played more than warranted)
eyebrow raising? I see what you did there.
that's a ton of nice clothes, shoes etc
Pop and his front office brain trust continue their multi-year run of suckage. More tonight at 10.
Wow did he not give up much, Hoopshype NBA salaries says he was contracted for $7,000,000, $6,650,000, $1,350,000... Less than the vet min each year. Maybe I am reading too much into the tea leaves, but it suggests to me that this wasn't a Demarre can't hack it (as a Spurs b-ball player, ie. the can't get the sets thing) scenario, but much more of a personalities (Pop froze him out) thing...
It would have been better for him to go to the Clippers. Carroll, Morris, Quitter on the same team
And the 3rd year only guarantee a little over a million.
What is odd is that couldn't the Spurs get intel from Brooklyn about DeMarre Carroll's inability to follow plays?
Did he not also play under Budenholzer with the Hawks? There was no intel?
Yes, I do, stupid, and the answer he gave you was to a different question, dimwit.
John Hollinger: Hearing that DeMarre Carroll gave back $761k in Spurs buyout. Will be prorated over the three years of his deal. Spurs have 48 hours to decide whether to stretch remaining $7.36M cap hit evenly over five years, or retain current structure ($6.12M next year, $1.24M in 2020-21) – via Twitter johnhollinger
No. You are wrong. Next step for you is beyond knowing where to go to look for information you need to read it correctly and interpret it correctly.
You are wrong, you illiterate fool. The next step for you is to go back and look at what you actually asked him, you illiterate fool.
C'mon, moron, get it right. Go back and look.
Honest question... You've posted that the salary for the first year of DMC's contract couldn't be changed after Jan 10 per CBA; yet the Spurs would be incurring a $6,842,000 cap hit for the season when as posted above (haven't checked that) his salary for the season was supposedly 7M. What happened there? Are the Rockets paying him that difference so his "guaranteed" money stays the same? I'm no expert in CBA stuff, tbh.
He’s wrong’ that is what happened.
The Spurs are not paying the veteran minimum salary, prorated this year, and full year for the next two.
He's not though, even though you're my Dude... You asked about the third and last year of DMC'S contracts specifically in your tweet, and that guy on Twitter said that the definition of a buyout is changing the amount owed to the team (in whichever year) in exchange for release. Jeff then posted the part of the CBA stating that the salary owed to a player for the current year is locked up after Jan 10... You're not arguing about the same things. And in any case, we didn't get off the third year of DMC'S contract, so whatever.
But isn't the vet min salary a part of what was owed to DMC for the season - and thus, totally guaranteed to Carroll after Jan 10 per CBA? Or is the amount locked up, but doesn't matter which team page for it, so the team that signs Carrol will cover it thus making it right? That's why I asked, it's a bit confusing.
Not true. He’s arguing that all the money this year is due to Carroll since it’s past 1/10. My tweet, while referencing another year also described why what he quoted was wrong. Even though it’s after 1/10 a buyout changes the dynamics and a player can be not paid if THEY agree to those terms due to the buyout.
So yes, i asked about year 3, but the answer was also valid for year 1.
