Report: Bucks have interest in Gary Neal

Found July 08, 2013 on Project Spurs:
PLAYERS: Gary Neal,  Marco Belinelli,  Tiago Splitter,  Manu Ginobili,  Brandon Jennings,  Monta Ellis,  Carlos Delfino,  Zaza Pachulia,  Jeff Teague
TEAMS: San Antonio Spurs,  Milwaukee Bucks,  Houston Rockets,  Atlanta Hawks,  Memphis Grizzlies,  Miami Heat
Four days ago word came out that San Antonio Spurs restricted free agent guard Gary Neal was gaining attention on the open market and the Spurs might not be able to match the price teams are asking for Neal. Though none of those team names were released, it seems the Milwaukee Bucks are one of four teams who have interest in Neal according to Gery Woelfel of the JournalTimes.com. Bucks are 1 of 4 teams in mix for Gary Neal. — Gery Woelfel (@GeryWoelfel) July 9, 2013 Before free agency began, the Spurs did extend a $1.1 million dollar qualifying offer to Neal making him a restricted free agent. That means that if a team offers a signing sheet to Neal, the Spurs will have three days to match the offer to keep Neal. However, as I wrote in my column three days ago, the recent free agent move the Spurs made in reaching a verbal agreement with guard Marco Belinelli might be a sign Neal’s tenure in San Antonio could be over. The first issue would be finances. Th...

Source: Spurs likely to re-sign Gary Neal

Via Project Spurs  |  July 09, 2013
When the San Antonio Spurs grabbed Marco Belinelli with a cheap deal (two-years, $6 million), the writing was just about on the wall: Gary Neal, a restricted free agent this offseason, would not return. Belinelli replicated much of Neal's duties, likely at a reduced cost, so it seemed a tad redundant to roster two similar players.   Or, you know, maybe not.   ...

Report: Bucks’ Pursuing Gary Neal

Via BlackSportsOnline  |  July 09, 2013
Gary Neal got hot during the NBA Playoffs, and it might allow him to cash out with a nice payday. The Racine Journal Times is reporting that the Milwaukee Bucks are one of four teams in pursuit of the Spurs restricted free agent guard.

Video: Stephen Jackson uncut, reveals more on getting cut by Spurs

Via Project Spurs  |  July 08, 2013
Former San Antonio Spurs forward Stephen Jackson never has a filter when he speaks to the media. He lets it fly and speaks whatever is on his mind. Case in point - his interview with ESPN's "Highly Questionable."  Jackson, who was cut by the Spurs right before the postseason, was a guest on the ESPN program weeks ago but that initial interview was edited. ESPN...

Gary Neal To The Bucks?

Via Pass The Pill  |  July 09, 2013
The Bucks have been the subject of some recent rumors lately. Earlier, I reported that they  were in the mix for J.R. Smith, but then the Knicks ended re-signing J.R. Smith, which shot that rumor down. Now another rumor has surfaced, courtesy of Kurt Helin of Pro Basketball Talk on NBC Sports and Gery Woelfel of the Journal Times, which is that the Milwaukee Bucks are one of four...

Denmon ready to impress at Summer League

Via Project Spurs  |  July 10, 2013
With the 59th pick in the 2012 NBA Draft, the San Antonio Spurs selected guard Marcus Denmon from the University of Missouri. However, Spurs fans have yet to see him stateside as he was sent to France to develop his game while playing for Élan Chalon.   That was then, this is now.   Denmon will be showcasing his talents in Vegas this week with the Spurs Summer...

Jean-Charles on being drafted by Spurs and his goals

Via Project Spurs  |  July 08, 2013
With the 28th pick in the 2013 NBA Draft, the San Antonio Spurs selected forward Livio Jean-Charles from France.  The pick may have left some Spurs fans scratching their heads but recall the team did pick another Frenchman at the same spot many years ago and Tony Parker turned out to be a draft day steal. Something the team is hoping Livio will turn out to be once he makes his...

Belinelli: I want to play with the best and win

Via Project Spurs  |  July 09, 2013
Marco Belinelli is 27, an age where most athletes sustain peak performance for a few years before their athleticism drops off as they enter their early 30's, and the San Antonio Spurs will be his fifth professional team (Golden State, New Orleans, Toronto, Chicago) in seven seasons. A precarious position, to be sure.   He's played on just two playoff teams -- the...

Brazil will be without Splitter this summer

Via Crossover Chronicles  |  July 09, 2013
Aside from the wheeling and dealing of NBA free agency during the offseason, personally I enjoy the summer basketball tournaments overseas. It truly is competitive and tough going when a chance to qualify for Olympic play is on the line.  Foreign born NBA players usually jump at the chance to represent their home country, much to the dismay of their respective NBA fan base and...

Video: Did you know Davis Bertans plays with a missing finger?

Via Project Spurs  |  July 09, 2013
Forward Davis Bertans (traded to the San Antonio Spurs during the 2011 NBA Draft) is currently on the road to recovery after suffering an ACL tear which required surgery. He is in good spirits and is looking to come back a "beast" as he put it once he is back on the court. However, before he even stepped foot on a court, did you know he nearly lost his entire hand in...

Spurs Unable To Reach Deal For Kirilenko

Via RealGM  |  July 10, 2013
The San Antonio Spurs pursued a sign-and-trade deal for Andrei Kirilenko, but talks with the Minnesota Timberwolves have broken off. Flip Saunders has shown little to no interest in facilitating a sign-and-trade for Kirilenko. The Wolves were interested in a combination of assets from the Spurs in exchange for Kirilenko, but were unable to take back the $8 million to $9 million in...

Decision Time Approaches for Greg Oden

Via Project Spurs  |  July 09, 2013
With Dwight Howard deciding to “take his talents” to Houston, the list of available quality centers is dwindling down.  The San Antonio Spurs are not likely to pursue Andrew Bynum, due to his questionable health record, lack of willingness to work out for prospective teams and the limited access he gave teams to his medical records. Greg Oden, whom the Spurs have reportedly...
