I don't believe in paying a player a big contract after they finally perform well in their contract year. There will always be a chump that will overpay, which is why Jose's right. Tiago will most likely be gone unless he just simply wants to be Spur no matter what. Can the Spurs offer him an extension and not deal with restricted free agency?
I think Manu will retire a Spur, and they will probably overpay him at 5-6 million. Sjax has been jonesing for an extension of some sort, and even mentioned it after he became a Spur. I've got doubts about him accepting 2-3 million a year. I've been saying it all along, I would trade him this season. His worth on the team is overrated and he has more value as a trade piece.
