You do know that ChumpDumper quit posting here at the same time Rick Astley died? Coincidence... I think not.

The Spurs would not release details of the extension, but league sources told ESPN on Sunday that the three-year deal is worth $32.3 million.

"I'm happy to be here," Forbes told reporters Monday. "It worked out for both sides. I feel like this season has been great for myself. Trying to find my rhythm, be myself. I feel like the offense has had some tweaks where I'm feeling more comfortable, helping the team. Pop [coach Gregg Popovich] told me he was happy about it."

The extension will keep Forbes, 27, under contract with the Spurs through the 2023-24 season. It includes a partially guaranteed salary in the deal's final season, league sources told ESPN. Only $7 million is guaranteed in the final year of the extension, league sources told ESPN's Zach Lowe.

"This place is great, great organization. They do things the right way," Forbes said. "Talks this summer were very constructive. ... I like that Pop has been great about what I needed or wanted. So far, it's been great."

damn you OP...

How did folks fall for this when free agency is after the draft & Forbes wasn't eligible for a contract extension?

I believe he's going to be a unrestricted free agent, but the Spurs still have his early Bird Rights.

Hopefully someone else overvalues his perimeter shooting (while injuring his lack of size + horrendous defense) & his time spent in the Spurs organization. Kind of like Kyle Anderson a few offseasons, ago.

He might be worth it if you believe the writer of this article that mentions Forbes' positional versatility.

"San Antonio's backcourt is loaded with young players, but Forbes is capable of sliding up to the three and playing alongside a pair of guards. Since he'll be unrestricted, there's no guarantee he won't look for a new deal elsewhere, but the Spurs have a history of overpaying a little to retain their own guys if they really want them back."

Not my take. I think he needs to go join a contender. But someone really believes it.

In that article above it shows the deadline for Demars option was the 13th, is that true?

Well, that is a foolish take.

Forbes is an undersized SG, who can't guard his position or make enough plays to play the PG position full-time.

He's best playing a Seth Curry - esque role on an elite defensive team or a team who's coach won't over play him/give him too large of a role.

Double No messing with our minds!

Quite possibly the greatest troll post in ST history. Very nicely done

You must knew son. This is an old ElNono move. Old timers knew what was coming as soon as we saw he was the creator of the thread, tbh.

[ElNono]

the core text is actually from the article on LaMarcus's extension

[rankingtear]

He will get somewhere close to the Seth Curry contract. Everyone needs shooting. Contenders would want him based on his last playoff performance , 12 points + 48% from three at 2.5 3 per game. He didn't choke on the DEN series like Bertans.

[spurs10]

Turns out Bryn owns Forbes Magazine and doesn't need the chump change. He's a mogul.

Got a quick feel on what it going to feel like if pops signs his lovechild . Can see the funny side but for a few seconds there.. i was like wtf .
