    tl;dr: Strange times we're living in, Spurs fans. This whole situation doesn't make sense, tbh.

    Goodbye and good riddance. Never should’ve signed him to a 3-yr deal in the first place.

    What in the is going on?? Just a terrible move to sign him in the first place to that contract and then we don’t even move him at the deadline for anything at all. Now we get to keep paying him while he plays for another team.

    If the Spurs had not signed Carroll could they have:

    (1) Kept Bertans and still offered Morris what they did, and/or

    (2) Offered Morris enough to actually sign him?

    Any capologists out there?

    Just curious.

    Yes in theory to 1. Morris was “signed” with MLE so whether it was Carroll or Bertans they could have used that MLE on Morris.

    However they already agreed to terms with Carroll using MLE so had to trade Bertans for Carroll functionally to re-open the MLE.

    They could have reneged on Carroll and kept Bertans but they obviously wouldn’t do that.

    Lazy journalism to just end with a comment about a gulf existing between Pop and the front office. Last time I checked Pop was President of the Whole Enchilada. If there is greater autonomy within the front office, then that should be the departure point for a true journalistic piece about the causes of the recent fragmentation of the Spurs leadership, with some evidence.

    So what do we do with the roster spot? G-League guy or a failed draft pick that we try and resurrect?

    You bet me by a nano second to this. Exactly, the front office and coaching staff are one and the same. And Pop is the head of the snake on both. The troubling aspect is how incompetent the leadership of this team is.

    From what I know ownership is really disappointed with the season and the potential of not making the playoffs.

    Maybe they shouldn’t have begged Pop to come back and just let him retire last season.

    He said he does not jel with pop with basketball
    He can talk other things
    The point is pop is paid to get him to gel with him
    Lma wanted out after a year
    Pop is not a good coach
    He is a very old bitter sex starved old man

    He wasn't an asset. He'd be lucky to net a 2nd round draft pick.

    This. Not so much begged, but they wanted him back.

    The only one who would deserve it is Pop. He pulls the strings.

    How much, if anything, did Carrol leave on the table? Has that been reported?

    This is the biggest issue - IMO -

    the dude was never even given a shot to play!

    gtfo with any kind of rationalization -


    anyone could understand if he wasnt playing well, or not fitting in - or - a bad teammate - but he NEVER HAD A CHANCE-

    WTF?

    Carroll wasn't the asset. It was Bertans.
