I would laugh if the Spurs and him had a verbal agreement then the Spurs reverse-Boozer'd him and told him to GTFO.
This is great news for San Antonio.

This.
Only stupid people think this is good for the Spurs.

I would hazard a guess the Spurs will extend RJ at a more reasonable contract money-wise and longer, giving him more money, and allowing the Spurs to sign a free agent via MLE to upgrade the bench.
Say 3 years, $30 million.

Almost as bad as Nomar Garciaparra turning down the Boston Red Sox contract. What an idiot. All those poles to his derriere must be affecting his cognitive skills.

He realizes hes a MLE player, but with that big contract people were looking at him as a bad contract rather than a good SF in the right system.
So he gives up 15 Million? He did this to help San Antonio. San Antonio can S&T Jefferson(similar to Toronto with Marion) for Jefferson to get maybe a 5/$40 Million Dollar Deal while San Antonio can bring back some talent as well since they wont have a MLE this season. They weren't going to find any suitors for Jefferson's expirer post-2010 FA Frenzy.
how will they do this and pay splitter?
