    That's good value for Sterling. He provided decent defense and solid shooting.

    It's crazy cheap, wonder how his agent could not get more for him.

    I know, this poor b*stard is being forced to play basketball for money. Five mil a year in Texas, how will he make it through the day

    Underrated signing: Dougie McBuckets to Spurs. Pretty much a Pops type of player. He would definitely fit in their system.

    So what this tells me is that we aren't planning on tanking this year.
    Theis/ Nwaba are physical off-ball guys who fill a role on a team that is trying to win games.
    We could easily have spent that money on project powder puffs to see if they pan out.

    28 wins coming baby!!!

    Pop is washed, this is a dumb signing. If the knicks gave Dougie that coin they'd be lambasted

    Theis amd Nwaba represent youngish veterans that can play D, lead by example and provide potential trade value later on.

    Nwaba is a great Athlete plays very aggressive. He was Tweaked his hand and was out the whole year. We must be going real small he will probably play some 4 , just don’t like him taking away minutes from Martin…

    LOL Nwaba at the 4 is never going to happen and Martin is our main SF back up and he actually might play the 4 so no worries there.

    Why? Lol. That's a lateral move at best and then you want to attach an FRP. Get out of here. I enjoyed watching Collins in the playoffs, but he is not a 1st option or even a 2nd option.
