just get Russ, sign Gary and another playable vet. Gary??? The guy still can't score consistently and isn't solving the bench offense issues. Why not somebody like Lonnie Walker as he could be had for $5 mil/year via tax payer MLE. Gary would be the starter as he can take and make 3s with confidence which is what we need in the starting lineup. Lonnie would be great at that price but if we could dump Zeke on the Clippers by trading for Russ, that would be 2 birds 1 stone. |

Not that I’m super high on Klay but reports are he’s going to talk with Dallas, lakers, clippers and Philly. 3 of these teams are way over the cap. Yet they try. They get creative. Our front office doss absolutely nothing. Doesn’t have to be with Klay but if Dallas and the clips are trying to find a way to get a guy in the $15-20 million range why can’t we? Nome of those teams are way over the cap?? Why do you say that?? |

I can't believe that we're keeping mpj. He should be #1 on the trade block. Before Zeke

Chris Paul to the Spurs is kind of weird. You'd think he'd rather go ring chase somewhere, and it's hard to imagine CP3 lasting long enough to see the Spurs truly compete.

Lonnie would be great at that price but if we could dump Zeke on the Clippers by trading for Russ, that would be 2 birds 1 stone. Gary will never be a starter in this league again...which if you forgot he could never stay healthy with Denver trying to play 30+ mins/game. Saying he would start is fantasyland stuff. Gary = bench player and nothing more. Further, Gary is a career 37% three point shooter yet the last 3 years next to Jokic he was only shooting 32-34% from 3. Hence saying "he can take and make 3s with confidence" is complete revisionist history and falls more into the absurd category. Not only NO on Gary returning but he would actually make the bench offense worse. |

Lol even the worst teams in the league get better free agents than us. Have the spurs even tried to win games the last 3 years? We won a title and get zero interest |

He'll get paid then at trade deadline they'll move him to a contender for assets. |

Sounds like Paul George is going to Philly, along with Eric Gordon. Jonas Valanciunas headed to Washington.

Last time i checked, Orlando is in Florida. Can you tell me the diff in tax $ for KCP to chose them over us in case we matched the offer? It’s not that much - Colorado income tax is just under 5%. On $66m, he’s saving around $3 million basically. Where state income tax gets rough is a place like California; where it’s close to 12%. |
