Kawhi is a monster, they'll keep being a top 3 seed even after Duncan and Manu are gone. The Rockets would have been better though.

Guess Morey knew this and that's why he went ahead and signed his guys back. Anyways, time to move on.

So is the plan to use splitter for a S&T? Or will he Spurs have to legitimately get under the cap and lose players in the process. God I hope it's the latter. I'm not worried about that starting lineup of they have no real center or depth.
I hope the Suns don't try to overpay for Josh Smith since they now need a PF. Maybe D-Mo or T-Jones for Bledsoe?
Spurs have no center and age will catch them Durant may never fully heal that foot This league has a lot of ifs. The rockets can beat any team in the league though. Even the Warriors. That series was closer than people think.
I think they really like Bledsoe, and Knight is tall enough to guard most SGs. They'll keep them both.
Ok that's good...I was concerned they could parlay the splitter deal into a 3 team trade to go above the cap.
I've been telling the board we need black alternate jersys we all know the spurs jerseys are rad....LA picked them because their cooler......ha ha
I personally think last year was a fluke. We overachieved and I think there will be tougher competition in the West next year and we simply don't have enough talent.
