of course he isn't

but the difference he makes can't be denied

conversely, is Hayward or Parsons max players? They play the same positions and are getting paid $15 million a season.

Hayward and Parsons will be 2 of the examples brought up in the next CBA agreement/lock out. These owners/GMs never learn :snoop:

every fukking lock out, its the same shyt immediately after :snoop:

Dallas by way of Houston by way of San Antonio
but 10 mil?? Timmy is worth more than that. All that money that he help put in the owner's pocket plus the chips. Owner did Timmy dirty.

Look at the deal Dirk just signed. They're in the twilight of their career. They want more rings rather than more $$$ right now.

Timmy could of got the max and the Spurs could of fielded the same exact team that won the past year. That fake narrative of rings over money...Timmy took less so his owner wouldn't have to pay the Lux tax.:snoop:

Maybe he cares about more than that

Word. I'm a Spurs fan till death but Peter **** is worse than an Asian dad when it comes to money. This shyt got me :lupe:.

We got lucky the first time around; Tim was ready to bounce but David Robinson convinced him to stay.

Leonard needs to realize that the Spurs will do just fine without him.

At work reading this thread like :snoop:. Im rocking with Kawhi on this one. Kawhi the only wing, out of everybody that is getting paid, that got his team a ring. He has been to the conference finals every year he has been in the league. Without Kawhi we would have broken the team up 2-3 years ago. People forget, we were done in 09. Absolutetly done. Had no athleticism. And now the perfect piece falls in your lap in the draft, and you gonna play hardball with him. Mind you, everybody knows the cap is gonna balloon in 2 years, so his contract won't even be as big of a dent in the cap as it looks like now. You don't start off trying to short a player that helped yo get a ring and wants to sign longterm in San Antonio. You will never be able to spend that money on a free agent, so what the fukk are you thinking. The market has been set already. If Parsons and Haywood got paid, Kawhi has to get paid. Simple as that..

The Pacers drafted him tho, and the Spurs recognized game and traded for him. That's what the Spurs do, I wouldn't put it past them to find someone else should they not want to give him the max and he leaves.
