距离自由球员市场开启仅剩几个小时。虽然各支球队要到7月6日才能正式签约，但他们可以在6月30日开始谈判。目前，自由球员市场和交易市场上都有许多引人关注的名字。我们已经见证了扬尼斯·阿德托昆博 (Giannis Antetokounmpo) 加盟迈阿密的热门交易，接下来可能还会有更多重磅消息。
马刺在重返季后赛的首个赛季便一路杀入总决赛，他们可能不会在自由市场上大动干戈，但确实有一些阵容空缺需要填补，在某些位置上也需要升级或增加经验。那么，让我们来看看圣安东尼奥需要什么、如何实现目标，以及怎样的休赛期才算得上成功。
马刺有薪金空间吗？他们该如何签下自由球员？
从技术上讲，马刺可以腾出极少量的薪金空间，但实际上，他们将作为一支超出工资帽的球队来运作。这意味着什么？这意味着他们将拥有价值约1500万美元的非纳税人中产特例可以使用，同时由于去年没有使用双年特例，他们还拥有一个价值约550万美元的双年特例。这应该足够用来引进一些实力球员。
此外，由于马刺远低于第二土豪线，如果他们拥有自家自由球员的伯德权，就可以毫无顾虑地与他们续约。至于他们是否有兴趣带回其中的大多数人则是另一回事，但有报道称他们可能会尝试留住哈里森·巴恩斯 (Harrison Barnes)。目前，他们有九名球员签有标准合同，但在签下两名首轮新秀后，这一数字将变为11人。
那么交易呢？马刺能搞出大动作吗？
马刺拥有年轻球员、选秀权以及大大小小的合同，足以促成一笔大交易，但在这个过程中势必会失去关键的轮换成员。上赛季，他们拥有像凯利·奥利尼克 (Kelly Olynyk) 和哈里森·巴恩斯这样可以放弃的到期合同，能够轻松匹配薪资。但现在，要想通过大动作引进一名高薪球员，他们必须打包送出像凯尔登·约翰逊 (Keldon Johnson)、德文·瓦塞尔 (Devin Vassell) 和/或卢克·科内特 (Luke Kornet) 这样的球员，而这些球员在上赛季都在轮换阵容中。
这是否意味着交易完全没有可能发生？倒也未必。约翰逊和科内特在季后赛中表现挣扎，尽管他们在常规赛中做出了贡献，但管理层可能会认为他们并非不可或缺。达龙·福克斯 (De’Aaron Fox) 在季后赛中也未处于最佳状态，但布莱恩·莱特 (Brian Wright) 表示球队仍将致力于围绕他建队。他还表示，他预计这支队伍的大部分成员都会回归，这可能意味着虽然大动作并非没有可能，但概率很低。
马刺的需求是什么？
马刺拥有坚实的基础，但他们还缺少一种类型的球员：一个既能投篮又能兼任小球中锋的大个前锋。然而，这种类型的球员极其难找，每个没有这种球员的球队都想得到一个，因此市面上可供选择的并不多。尤其是那些在季后赛中证明过自己、且能用中产特例签下的球员，更是凤毛麟角。
尽管如此，圣安东尼奥仍然可以引进一个能胜任这两个角色之一的球员。在市面上可供选择的能投篮的大个前锋中，有托拜厄斯·哈里斯 (Tobias Harris)、桑德罗·马穆凯拉什维利 (Sandro Mamukelashvili)、约翰·科林斯 (John Collins)、萨迪克·贝 (Saddiq Bey) 和八村垒 (Rui Hachimura) 等人，他们很可能会签下一份中产特例级别的合同。马刺也可以留住巴恩斯来填补这一角色，或者寄希望于卡特·布莱恩特 (Carter Bryant) 的成长。
目前有什么与马刺相关的流言吗？
不出所料，马刺已经与一众前锋联系在了一起，但目前还没有实质性的进展。据报道，他们“预计”会对约翰·科林斯和迪恩·韦德 (Dean Wade) 感兴趣，根据《The Stein Line》马克·斯坦 (Mark Stein) 的报道（付费源）和HoopsHype的迈克尔·斯科托 (Michael Scotto) 的报道。 当然，“预计感兴趣”并不意味着他们真的感兴趣，但确实有这种可能。斯坦确实提到过马刺对八村垒感兴趣，所以这看起来更像是一则报道，而非单纯的猜测。
马刺还被ESPN的鲍比·马克斯 (Bobby Marks) 与科怀·伦纳德 (Kawhi Leonard) 联系在了一起。据斯坦报道（付费源），马刺是伦纳德愿意与其签下提前续约合同的两支球队之一，另一支是猛龙。但是，尽管有报道称多伦多对重聚感兴趣，但目前还没有关于圣安东尼奥是否有意的新闻。考虑到这支球队与该球员之间糟糕的结局，即使不考虑快船可能开出的高昂要价，答案也很可能是“不”。
马刺在自由市场上的现实前景如何？
在NBA，任何事情都有可能发生。我们见过许多意料之外的签约和交易。但考虑到马刺上赛季的出色表现、他们可用于引进人才的筹码，以及阵容中为数不多的漏洞，如果圣安东尼奥在这个休赛期保持低调，也并不令人意外。
正如前面所提到的，引进一名具有身材优势且能投篮的前锋是马刺最大的需求。他们可能会尝试使用部分或全部中产特例来寻找这样的人选。在选秀大会之前，引进一名高质量的第三大个子似乎是一项迫切需求，但在选中了两名中锋——包括一名看起来已经做好NBA准备的大个子小塔里斯·里德 (Tarris Reed Jr.) 之后，这现在看起来更像是一种奢侈。尽管如此，签下一名具有投篮能力的大个子或一名护筐手仍然是个不错的主意。如果能用部分中产特例或双年特例签下一位能上场打球的球员，那将是明智之举。
在关于马刺意向人选的报道并不多的情况下，很难指名道姓地确定目标，但一个成功的休赛期，比如签下八村垒和小拉里·南斯 (Larry Nance Jr.)，或者约翰·科林斯和西蒙尼·丰泰基奥 (Simone Fontecchio)。虽然这些特定的球员可能无法得到，但只要马刺能增加一些投射能力和身材尺寸，这个休赛期就是成功的。如果他们留住巴恩斯，那么用廉价合同签下一名大个子或一名后卫来完善阵容，将是合理的选择。
自由市场什么时候开始？我该如何获取最新消息？
各支球队可以从中部时间6月30日（星期二）下午5点开始与自由球员进行谈判。请务必关注 Pounding the Rock，获取所有与马刺相关的最新消息和讨论。

Everything Spurs fans need to know about free agency
The start of free agency is just hours away. While teams won’t be able to actually sign contracts until July 6th, they can start negotiating on June 30th, and there are a lot of interesting names both in the free agency pool and on the trade block. We’ve already had the massive Giannis Antetokounmpo to Miami move, and there could be more coming.
The Spurs, coming off a Finals appearance in their return to the playoffs, might not go for a big splash, but they do have some roster spots to fill and some roles where they could use an upgrade or more experience. So let’s see what San Antonio needs, how it can get it, and what would make for a successful offseason.
Do the Spurs have cap space? How can they sign free agents?
The Spurs could technically carve up some minimal cap space, but in reality, they’ll act as an over-the-cap team. So what does that mean? Well, they’ll have the non-taxpayer’s mid-level exception worth around $15 million at their disposal, as well as the bi-annual exception worth around $5.5 million since they didn’t use it last year. It should be enough to add some talent.
They will also be able to re-sign their own free agents if they have Bird rights to them without much concern, since they are well below the second apron. Whether they’ll have an interest in bringing most of them back is a different story, but there have been reports that they might try to keep Harrison Barnes. Currently, they have nine players under standard contracts, but that number will move to 11 once they sign their two first-round draft picks.
What about trades? Can the Spurs make something big happen?
The Spurs have young players, draft picks, and contracts large and small to make a big trade, but not without losing key contributors in the process. They had expendable expiring contracts last season, like Kelly Olynyk’s and Harrison Barnes’, to match salaries easily, but now to make a big move for an expensive player, they would have to include guys like Keldon Johnson, Devin Vassell, and/or Luke Kornet, all of whom were in the rotation last year.
Does that mean there’s no chance a trade happens? Not really. Johnson and Kornet struggled in the playoffs, and despite their contributions in the regular season, the front office might consider them expendable. De’Aaron Fox also wasn’t at his best in the postseason, but Brian Wright has said the team remains committed to him. He’s also said he expects most of this group to be back, which likely means that while possible, a big move is unlikely.
What are the Spurs’ needs?
The Spurs have a strong foundation, but there’s one type of player that they are missing: a big forward who can shoot and also spend time as a small-ball center. Now, that type of player is extremely hard to find, and every team that doesn’t have one wants one, so there are not many available. Especially not proven playoff performers who could be had with the mid-level exception.
That said, San Antonio could still use someone who can fill one of the two roles. Among the available big forwards who can shoot, there are names like Tobias Harris, Sandro Mamukelashvili, John Collins, Saddiq Bey, and Rui Hachimura, among others, who will likely sign for mid-level exception money. The Spurs could also retain Barnes to fill that role or rely on the development of Carter Bryant.
Are there any Spurs-related rumors out there?
Unsurprisingly, the Spurs have been linked to a bunch of forwards, but there’s nothing concrete. They are reportedly “expected” to be interested in John Collins and Dean Wade,according to The Stein Line Mark Stein($)and HoopsHype Michael Scotto, respectively. Now, expected to be doesn’t mean they are, but they could be. Stein did say the Spurs are interested in Rui Hachimura, so that seems more of a report than speculation.
The Spurs were also linked to Kawhi Leonard by ESPN’s Bobby Marksand are reportedly one of the two franchises with which Leonard would sign an extension, with the other being the Raptors, according to Stein($). But while Toronto is reportedly interested in a reunion, there has been no news about whether San Antonio is. The answer, considering how badly things ended between franchise and player, is likely “no” even before considering the Clippers’ potentially high asking price.
What’s a realistic scenario for the Spurs in free agency?
Anything can happen in the NBA. We’ve seen signings and trades no one was expecting. But considering how good the Spurs were last season, the tools they have at their disposal to add talent and the few holes on the roster, it wouldn’t be surprising if this offseason is a quiet one for San Antonio.
As mentioned, getting a forward with size who can shoot is the biggest need for the Spurs. They will likely try to find someone using part of the entirety of the mid-level exception. Before the draft, getting a quality third big man seemed like a need, but after selecting two centers, including a seemingly NBA-ready big man in Tarris Reed Jr., it now seems like more of a luxury. Still, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to secure the services of either a shooting big man or a rim protector. If someone who can play is available, either with part of the mid-level exception or the bi-annual exception, it would be smart to secure their services.
It’s hard to name the targets when there haven’t been many reports about who the Spurs want, but a successful offseason would be to get, say, Rui Hachimura and Larry Nance Jr., or John Collins and Simone Fontecchio, for example. While those specific players might not be available, as long as the Spurs add some shooting and size, the offseason would be a success. If they retain Barnes, adding a big man or a guard for cheap to round out their roster would likely be the play.
When does free agency start again? And how can I remain informed?
Teams can start negotiating with free agents on Tuesday, June 30th, at 5 p.m. CT. Make sure to visit Pounding the Rock for all your Spurs-related news and discussion.
