Who gives a frick? Really? He's one of the 10-20 greatest players in the history of the game. I'm sure he's not losing any sleep over it.

No idea. I think I missed all of the Millsap talk while eating lunch. I don't see how he turns down that amount of money though.

Unless they have some backup bigs there is 0% chance they are winning anything. Duncan is only gonna play like 27 mpg. Looking like they might have to dump Mills to make room for LMA also..


They're a very well run organization. They are well aware of any shortcomings in their roster and will address them accordingly.

They will be competing and making life very difficult for the rest of the West contenders, as usual. I'm done waiting for the Spurs to kick off. Gotta respect them at some point.

Atlanta matched. I'd be surprised if he left.

Well at worst he's a top 10 player ever, so that would put what, 3 guys ahead of him if he was classified as a center?

@ShamsCharania: Boston and Dallas are leaders so far in pursuit of free agent forward Jae Crowder, league sources tell RealGM. Mavs dealt him last season.

Ajinca is a decent player and 5 million is not bad for a backup big. Not ideal, but not terrible. He's actually terrific offensively, just can't stay on the court because he fouls a lot. If he could ever figure that out he'd be a starter.

I think he'll benefit from the Gentry offensive system a lot. Looking at the contracts being given out so far, $5M isn't bad.
