Theory: Jeff Vexler and Chance were talking about it over at the water cooler and it probably became an official rumor.
...my question is, who is there source?![]()
I have a sneaking su ion Chancellor views forums and then passes of as his own idea.

They read the Post.
Theory: other than noted slacker Tim Thomas, Jeffries is the only multi-skilled long combo forward available in FA.
They're throwing darts at a Spurs need.
The part he quoted just stated how much he made last year, and that the Wiz would like to keep him but at the right price. Does the actual article reference the Spurs in any way?
The Times said the same today.

Sweet, so it's not just our speculation...looks like the Spurs are actually interested.
Yep, now it's just a matter of who will overpay for him.
I'm about as thrilled by Jared Jeffries as I am a glass of water.
body
your not impressed by anyone.
I don't know who the you want.....
Why is there such a lack of enthusiasm for Jeffries?
He did a nice job on James, he fits a need for this team, and we won't have to pay him TOO much. Five mill a year isn't too bad, assuming we can get him for around that much.
Oh, and he's not a geezer.
Since the Spurs have ran off all of their centers, they definitely need someone.
The fact is they don't have any jack and there ain't available unless they trade one of the big three.
Pop is on a roll now!
He's no Reggie Evans....
It's ing June in SA. Water is GOOD!
If the Spurs go after him, it's because they are projecting something that he hasn't shown yet. He's never had meaningful minutes. What I like about him. other than his versatility, is that across the board, his playoff numbers are better than his career numbers. One example: he's a career 59% FT shooter in four seasons (the perfect Spur!), and yet his playoff FT percentage is 76%.
These are the kinds of players that are available for role player money, 5-6M. If he were averaging 18/9, the Spurs would never get a whiff.
He's never had meaningful minutes.
He started over 70 games the past two seasons.
His highest minutes, EVER, was 28.1 in 04-05, and his career average is 24. That's not "starter" minutes, no matter who's on the court when the tip goes up. I thought the Spurs brought Parker along fairly slowly as far as minutes go, but his rookie season was his low at 29.4, and he hasn't looked back
Parker was pretty much thrown into the starting role.
If you're looking for somebody to compare Jeffries to, compare him to a SJax or a Bowen...someone who makes that kinda money. 29 minutes a game 2 seasons into your career isn't too bad for a role player.
That's still alot of minutes, certainly enough to show what one can do on the court.
I'll try to convince myself he has mad upside, but I'm skeptical.
Ahhhhh

and you make less sense than ever.Since the Spurs have ran off all of their centers, they definitely need someone.

Except that he was a lottery pick.29 minutes a game 2 seasons into your career isn't too bad for a role player.
I know Parker was thrown into the starting role. That's my point. Some kid from France comes in and gets more minutes his rookie year running the point than Washington's lottery pick ever got, and Parker almost split time with Terry Porter. like 29/19.
I don't think he even needs "mad" upside. If you can get 10/7 and some good defense out of him, Dallas can't draw us into the smallball game.
I'd much rather overpay him than Evans, so he gets my vote.
Jeffries Baby.....
Been on this kid since the Spurs got kicked out of the playoffs....
The Basketball Gods shall let it be...
