Rumor Mill: Spurs Eyeing Jannero Pargo, Finley Turns Down Euro Offer


Silver and Black, why have I forsaken you!? It's been too long since our last post, partly due to a busy schedule at the "real" job. Here's the latest rumors in Spurs land:

Spurs Talking to Jannero Pargo

The take: Last time we say Pargo, he was burying threes in a late charge to steal game 7 of the Western semis. This is still in "rumor" mode, but Pargo's agent, Mark Bartelstein, acknowledged mutual interest by saying that "The Spurs speak for themselves. It's a great place to play. They are limited in what they can do financially, but we are definitely talking to them." We'll keep an eye on this, since signing another backup point would have definite roster implications.

Finley Turns Down European Offer

The take: Old news, and not that surprising. Over a month ago, the 35 year-old Finley opted not to take a lucrative offer in Europe, and is still a free agent.

Spurs Re-Sign Kurt Thomas

The take: An absolute necessity after Tiago bolted, the resigning of Kurt Thomas stabilizes the frontline that will be introducing a young Ian Mahinmi to the rotation.

Spurs Sign Anthony Tolliver

The take: A relative no name out of Creighton, the 6-8 Tolliver earned a contract through summer league play. 53.5% from 3-pt land during the Rocky Mountain Review can do that for you. Keep in mind that it's a nonguaranteed contract, so Tolliver hasn't earned himself a roster spot, but he could be this year's version of Darius Washington.
