I agree! I can't really see any team offering him a starters job straight up anyway. So why risk moving to a team with a different system in place and your game doesn't translate as well. Sure, he may get a quick pay day on a 3-5 year contract, but if he stays with the Spurs and continues to improve he may end up playing for another 7-10 years on very good money still.
Veteran Point Guards are always sort after to offer support and leadershipoff the bench, especially ones that can knock down the 3. If he takes a 3-5 year contract with the Spurs, after that he will be a proven commodity in the league with veteran experience. I think he would easily compare with guys like Jarryd Bayless, DJ Augustine and even Derek Fisher once that time comes.
