    Maybe. Nash and Tim have great respect for each other so you never know. Professionals should put history behind them and move on from the past. Besides Hipcheck Horry isn't here anymore.

    This may not be the type of player that the Spurs would look to acquire. But, I liked and like Josh Selby coming out of Kansas who is currently on the Memphis bench. He could be an intriguing option if available.

    It looks like the Houston Rockets have a deal in the works to move Sam Dalembert and possibly the 16th pick.

    I've made my peace with Blair potentially being traded. He's an effective role player (hustle, rebounding, paint points), he's young and he's cheap. Given that this draft is deep but not star-studded, I'm willing to bet a team in the first round takes the "known quan y" role player over the unknown.
    I agree with everything except the hustle and rebounding part. Oh yeah, the only reason he hits points in the paint is no jump shot. He might be the only player in the NBA who cannot shoot a jump shot. I mean even if he shoots and misses. He will be addition by subtraction along with Bonner.

    We don't have anything to offer them, its not a salary dump as Dalembert is only $1.5m guaranteed for next year so they'll be looking for a good player in return

    I wonder if the Spurs would be interested in trading for Joel Freeland. It seems that he is available and wants to come over to play in the NBA.

    http://www.blazersedge.com/2012/6/19...medium=twitter

    I have not watched him play very much outside a few games, so here is a player profile taken from Shamsports:

    " Freeland is a tall and athletic big man, with the sensuous touch of a high class escort and the polish of a limo's sunroof. His offensive mainstay is his jumpshot, which is suitably smooth out to about 18 feet, but he's also developed some good touch on the interior, a hook shot, soft hands and some post footwork. He can run the floor well for his size, and has a good handle of the ball as well. Freeland rebounds well, has good shot blocking instincts, and good lateral quickness for a big man. He's a tad foul prone, not overly physical and turnover prone, but his brilliance is unrelenting and his abilities eternally outstanding.
    If I've made it sound like Joel Freeland is capable of everything, then that's because he is. If I've also made it sound like I'm biased towards everything Joel Freeland ever says or does, then that's because I am. "

    He is also 6'10/11 and only 25 years old. To me that sounds like a very good fit next to Tim.
    Here is a video of him playing against Real Madrid:

    He'd be a great fit mentally-wise. A real leader on and off the court for team GB.

    per @iwhittell:

    "Freeland doubt v LIthuania last night with slight toe injury but decent game in front of Portland staff - 10pts (3/9 FG), 3 reb, 1 bl, 2st
    GB (without 4 starters) lost 63-61. Scouts there from Blazers, Raptors, Spurs, Rockets, Nuggets and Suns"

    I guess he is already on their radar.

    Would bonner even fetch one of the first picks in the second round? I'm thinking we ship him back to the motherland for Tornoto's 37th pick.

    http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine We get a big man, give him time to get healthy and we should be good, having that defender in the middle. They get experience, perimeter defense and toughness with Jack and they get 3 point shooting from Bonner, they actually got to starting C's with Okafor and Nene, Im guessing they will try to get Okafor packing.

    Spurs offseason plan:Sign Diaw, Sign De Colo, Sign Lorbek, trade Blair and some picks for Batum. This would bolster our frontcourt and backcourt. This would really be reloading. Get it done Pop and Buford.

    seriously jcutter13?

    trade Blair and some picks for Batum? Do you have no idea how trades even work?

    Batum is unreachable, we can't match the offers he's getting from other teams. Plus I don't even think the Spurs should really be going after another swingman. Sure he's athletic, but we are already incredibly guard heavy..SJax and Kawhi at the 3 and Ginobili/Green/new draftee/Neal is already a pretty damn solid rotation..

    Neal to the Rockets for Jon Leuer? Rockets get point guard depth, Spurs get an always coveted stretch four.

    Agreed. I was going to bring this up but the Spurs should definitely contact the Rockets who have a great amount of power forwards at the moment and yes, Neal would be the player to trade away. I would rather trade Bonner or Blair, but giving the Rockets another power forward won't work.

    Keep Neal. Find a real backup PG.

    If we get a center from somewhere else (e.g. Camby), and the Rockets don't land Dwight Howard, Splitter might be a good trade piece to ship to Houston as well.

    Think it would be worth a shot to try to pry Terrence Jones loose?
