Duncan's done his part - time for the rest of the team to step up next season. God knows they let him down this year.
If we re-sign Bonner with this space though.

Second year is a player option. I think he can opt out after one year and still get some year two money, so it very well may be his last season.

Re: Duncan Signs for 5 Mill
He's worth at least $20m. And I'm talking on-court value.

Re: Duncan Signs for 5 Mill
Next season Kobe will receive $25m while Duncan will only receive $5m?

Re: Duncan Signs for 5 Mill
Thank you Timmy! You continue to amaze on and off the court. So, this really is the last year, isn't it? Unless they win and he comes back to try to repeat.

Probably $10m over 2 years. Here's an explanation from poster on SpursTalk:
The 2-year deal isn't because Timmy's playing for two more years. It's a contract fudge to help both parties -- Holt saves money and backs up Timmy with one more shot at a ring for doing so.
Essentially, signing a 2-year deal is just to pay Duncan what he should get in his final year, 2015-2016. The second season of the deal will be partially guaranteed or fully guaranteed. This is likely going to be Duncan's last go, and I'm sure we'll hear about that pre-season or early season. When he retires next summer, the Spurs will still owe and pay him at least half of his 2016-2017 salary (knowing their relationship, Holt has probably agreed to give him the full second-season salary). So, Timmy's taking a very slight pay cut. He and the front office have just, masterfully, made his final season a full-salary. They just pay it over the course of two years, instead of one. It helps Holt save on luxury payments a gives Timmy a decent check (nearer what he's worth). If the Spurs ring, maybe he considers playing the second year. They've set the team for the future, though, so this is probably really it. Manu and Tim are going out together, but they get one last shot while mentoring the next generation for a year.

Duncan's so fundemental and smart that if he really wanted to he could average 15/9 for the next 5 years.
