    From The Twitterz-

      WojYahooNBA Christmas morning in Spurs front office with Richard Jefferson opting out of $15 million. Incredible.
    Man, what is this guy thinking? There is speculation he won't even make $15 million over the duration of his career. The Spurs must be thrilled with this news!

    maybe the money isn't as important as the constant scrutiny about being over-paid for another season, after all it's not like he's hard up for money at the moment. Now if only Eddy Curry's fat *** would take notes.

    maybe Jefferson's agent already has a "verbal" aggrement with a club. There is no way he leaves 15 mill on the table with the season he had last year. This happens all the time in sports. It's only cheating if you get caught!

    I smell smoke...and where there is smoke, ......
    Just speculating here, but maybe money is less important to him at this point in his career, than having a shot at a ring.  Clearly SA is in a rebuild mode and will be far from a contender for some time now.

    It's a career move. He just wants to win.

    Yeah I was one of them *blushes*. I was never a diehard fan of basketball until the 2011-2012 postseason. I could name every team, but I always forgot two. Kings and Blazers.

    Yeah, he was tripping with that Scottie Pippen reference. Nowhere as good as him, BUUUTTT, I think he can be, if he plays like a man. In Euroleague, you are taught more about finesse, and the fundamentals. He needs to put a little more muscle on, ...

    I think what Stotts is doing is superb. His plays are great. I remember the only play he ever called for Meyers Leonard, against the Bobcats. Great movement, got LMA a good mid range look, got Batum a decent three look and the got Meyers way down ...
