I’m having a hard time thinking about which type of vets the Spurs should pursue. They shouldn’t shell out big money and years to anyone because they should see what they got in the young guys. I don’t know any free agents who are both worth a middling deal and who fit in with the young core without taking too much away from the youngins. I would probably enjoy having one or two more older vets for experience and locker room culture but have a tough time deciding whose roster spot they should take. I just want to figure out a way to bring back Boban and Patty, and we’re all set!
In addition to all the contract stuff, wouldnt bringing in Reaves significantly cut Branham’s minutes? I’d rather see what we have in Malaki than pay 10x the amount for Reaves
I think Reaves is good, but there’s a long list of contracts given to role players breaking out in the playoffs that didn’t work out. I’ll show my age a bit and give Austin Chroshere, Jerome James, and James Posey as a few examples

FYI - He has a penchant for hitting big shots, not a pension. 😉 (Yes, I’m that guy. I’m sorry.)
