SAN ANTONIO – The San Antonio Spurs today announced that they have placed guard Mike Wilks on the injured list with left patella tendinitis. Wilks has appeared in 31 games averaging 1.2 points, 0.5 assists and 0.3 rebounds in 3.7 minutes per game.

At the same time the Spurs waived guard Romain Sato. Sato, selected by the Spurs in the second round (52nd overall) of the 2004 NBA Draft, has spent all 54 games of the season on the injured list with left patella tendinitis.

I believe the Spurs had to waive someone to make room for the trade.

I refuse to believe the Spurs are dumb enough to keep Brewer on their own.

So is there a certain amount of time that the Spurs have to wait to waive Brewer????

Kori Ellis

I think they had to waive someone from the current roster in order for the trade to go through (because they needed room for both players). Now that the trade went through, they can waive Brewer whenever they want.

Jamison Brewer is the worst player in the NBA. If the Spurs even keep him on the roster for one game, I'm going to seriously question the mental health of the management.

Im sad to see Malik go....but wish him all the best...hopefully he can contribute to a Knicks team in desprate need of energy....Mohommad is good...but I'm not too sure if it was worth trading Rose...speaking in short term....as for the long term...how many years are left on Mohommad's contract?...and why two first round draft picks....I would have left that out....although we might pick up pheonix's draft pick this year....but then again this year's draft is a supposed bust...And what happened with Kurt Thomas....I would have preferred having aquired him....was he traded, or injured? Anyways....best of luck Malik!

Ever.

Barry and Bowen are long in the tooth...and who knows for certain that Brown will even resign here?




Ever.

Is that the "Mohammed is untradeable" kind of "ever", or the "you are stupid for" kind of "ever"?




Make an argument he would.So your prediction for Malik was to get 10 boards a game in NY. So he'll suck too. Motherfuck, indeed.

Please shut the fuck up...this is a classic example of you getting off on some side issue...

Just like you trying to make my Barry deal about set minutes...

Who the fuck knows what Isaiah is going to do?

I can tell you that if Malik gets 35 MPG he will put up 15 and 10...but who knows if he will get those kinds of minutes?

On top of that there is only @28 games left in the season...what does it matter who averages what? It won't be an accurate sample.

Malik has proven he can be the primary back up big on an NBA champion...he has proven the Spurs can beat Shaq in a playoff series with him getting big minutes guarding Shaq...


What in the fuck has Mohammed proven?

That he can pull down 8 boards a game on a shitty team?

Who cares?

Does it help his team? Does it keep them from sucking? No.

And that's all he's got going for him.

Kinda like Charlie Ward put up good numbers for the Knicks...what happened when he went to a real team?

Again.

WTF did Malik do before he was a Spur?

Why not waive Marks instead of Sato?

Because there is more risk in losing a big and not having a back-up compared to losing a 2 guard and not having a back-up.

And yes, a team is restricted to 15 players under contract(unless players are out for the season). So someone had to be dropped. Here are your options.

Marks - NO PT so he was a possible drop, but with Horry hurt, Nazr new to the system, and Duncan & Nes coming off injuries, he is an obvious keep

Johnson - NO PT so he was a possible drop, but would thin our size at the SF

Sato - NO PT so he was a possible drop plus he has 4 obvious SG's in front of him on the depth chart

Wilks - Has shown solid play in his few minutes and is better than Brewer

Another thing is that Marks, Johnson, Wilks, and Brewer all have experience prior to this year in the NBA. Sato didn't. Sorry he had to go. I was hopefull he could work out. He didn't and that is too bad. But that doesn't mean he won't be back later. Maybe he could get some quality time in the NBDL and work his way up. Worked for Devin Brown and Matt Carroll.

Yawn...why do you always speak for the collective? No one is a dense as you are so I think you do the rest of the forum a disservice when you speak in the collective like that.






You argue best in reverse.It's a classic example of your fucking yourself with your own words.

No it's a classic example of you getting off on some stupid tangent. Just like the set minutes thing with Barry.



But it won't mean anything because he is on a shitty team -- according to your own words.

Accoring to my own words, in a totally different discussion that has no relevance to whether or not Mohammed is better for our team than Malik, Malik is capable of 15 and 10...



If you can argue Sato > Barry and Bowen in some distant future and can't see anything approaching a possible upside to this trade, you're a liar and a hypocrite.

Again.

No, you're just a dumbass. Seriously.

Do you think Jamison is going to be better than Sato? Do you think he is more likely to get minutes?

We are basically ditching a proven championship caliber back up bigman, and unproven rookie guard, for an unproven big and a proven shitty player...not to mention we gave up two #1 picks.

The only upside to this trade is financial, and there's no doubt of the financial upside.....but every thing concerning championships is a gamble and a bad one.

Geez what a cunt you are, either that or you are too stupid to see the difference in portion of career not with the Spurs, between Rose and Mohammed....

Geez what a cunt you are, either that or you are too stupid to see the difference in portion of career not with the Spurs, between Rose and Mohammed.What is the difference? Nazr has had the misfortune of being on more shitty teams than Malik. Had Malik been on several shitty teams you'd think he was horrible too. Just like you did with Barry -- oops, wait -- you didn't. Another contradiction. Amazing.

I have my concerns about Nazr, but no more than I had about Malik. You obviously don't either, otherwise your predictions would have changed.

MAlik was not a major player for the Spurs dipshit. How many DNPs does it take for you to see the light?

Malik has been ineffective since David left. Not only did he have to make up for David's absence, he got Popbused because Rasho has no balls and that made the expectation even worse.

Malik was way in the fuck overpaid. The Spurs dumped that contract. The Spurs now have help down low.

Spurs dumped big dollars and replaced it with the exact same thing.

Obviously you don't know shit about business.

Of course it's relevant, unless you're saying you can't be held accountable for what you post because you constantly contradict yourself.

Holy shit...scroll up and read. It doesn't matter what they average, just like it didn't matter with Barry how many minutes Barry averaged.



0 = 0. So there's no difference.

No, there is difference. We know Jamison sucks. We don't know Sato sucks.



So you are saying right here and now Nazr will not work out.And yet your prediction changes not one iota.

Malik is proven Nazr is unproven, I think Malik is a better player, let me be clear on this, but then again, I don't always judge players by stats...Hedo...

I think the Spurs are a very strong team and still strong enough to win a title...but I think this makes it harder to do so.



Your nonargument in a nutshell.What is the difference? Nazr has had the misfortune of being on more shitty teams than Malik. Had Malik been on several shitty teams you'd think he was horrible too.

I might, I might not. I know for a fact the Spurs can win a title with Malik as the main back up big...can you say the same about Mohammed?





Just like you did with Barry -- oops, wait -- you didn't. Another contradiction. Amazing.

Stupid. I said the team was better with Barry getting chances to impact the game in both halves...I bitched when he was not given chances to impact the game in the second half...you made it about average minutes. Two different things, you are just too stupid to realize it.


I have my concerns about Nazr, but no more than I had about Malik. You obviously don't either, otherwise your predictions would have changed.

Malik has been a huge part of the chemistry on this team for nearly a decade...he's also proven to be able to play big in big games.

Nazr comes from a losing environment and the only reason people like him is because he put up mediocre rebounding numbers as as the starting C on a shitty team.

Malik knows the Spurs sytem, he's proven he can be the back up on a championship team...

Nazr has proven nothing of the kind. All he's proven he can pull down 8 boards a game as the starting center on a crappy Eastern team.

Stats on shitty teams are meaningless.

No, there is difference. We know Jamison sucks. We don't know Sato sucks. We know he's not going to displace the four guys ahead of him and that Beno and Parker are going to play minutes together too. 0 = 0. Known.
I think Malik is a better player but your prediction for the Spurs season doesn't change with Nazr in Malik's place.
Two different things, you are just too stupid to realize it. Yet you bit and were severely owned. And Barry plays those minutes at those important times because he earned the right to. Just like I said he would.
Stats on shitty teams are meaningless.So you promise never to post one of Malik's lines from the Knicks then.

Thanks in advance.

02-24-2005, 09:52 PM

Chump, you colossal dipshit...if it was about numbers for me, I would probably like this trade. YOUUUUUU brought up numbers. My 15 and 10 comment was a totally different discussion in a diffferent thread that had nothing to do with which player is a proven championship backup, and I wasn't even talking to you.



If they don't matter, stfu about them.

Asshole! You brought numbers into this argument!


Yet you bit and were severely owned.

Oh please...only in you and TimVP's world...you went out on a "huge" limb and predicted Barry would average over 10 mins...big fucking whoop. Your prediction was entirely based on what Pop would do and had little or nothing to do with the basketball knowledge and team performance.

BFD, you were also right about him waiving Heal and keeping Carter..what's your point? That you can predict moves by Pop better than I? BFD.




And Barry plays those minutes at those important times because he earned the right to. Just like I said he would.

Um we win more with him getting more minutes regardless of his shot...just like I said we would.

You defended losing.

Barry's numbers haven't improved really at all...and he was hitting clutch shots even when Pop was sitting him stupidly.

All you did was guess what Pop would do...like I said then...I'm glad Pop is not using Barry as stupidly as he used Kerr. He's gotten smarter on offense, congrats to him and you.

That doesn't change the fact that all those games where Barry sat in the second half were losses that you defended.

LMFAO! You said he wouldn't.
Right, I thought Pop was going to rot him out on the bench stupidly...like he did with Kerr. I wonder why I thought that?

What you still fail to realize is that it was never about minutes for me. I might bitch about his usage if he gets over 15 minutes, and I might not bitch if he gets under 10. It just depends on when he is used.


And believe in Barry more than you ever did, pussy.

Yeah, that why you enjoyed losses with him on the bench more than you did wins with him off it...Nothing says "I belive in you" like saying a guy sucks, is playing scared etc...all of which you said.

What I didn't believe in was Pop's offensive IQ...and if it makes you feel any better, I'm still not sold on it.



He earned his minutes without your pussy welfare.

Dumbass.

The point is his D is no different...he's not playing better D, and his D wasn't that bad back then. He plays the passing lanes well and has trouble with guys posting him up...same as it has been all season...same as it was when he was in Seattle.

Nothing's changed...except Pop finally realized(partially) what I was saying all along...that we are a better offensive team just by Barry stepping foot on the court.

And you do realize he only took like two shots in our last game right?

I don't know what it proves on PlanetChump...

But I don't see how you can argue against the fact that it is proven that we can win a title with Malik as the main back up...while Mohammed hasn't proven shit.

I don't see how you can argue against the fact that Jamison definitely sucks while Sato is an unknown...

I don't see how you can argue against the fact that Jamison definitely sucks while Sato is an unknown...An unknown is an unknown. What is known is that 0 = 0 = the playing time either would get in the foreseeable future = not worth holding up a trade that removes any complications of a Scola signing.
And I never saw how you could argue that we were better with Barry on the bench for the entire second half...Barry had to earn his time. He did. With 60 games to spare. End of story.

I agree with Whottt, we lost a player who has proven his ability to make clutch plays, guard shaq in the playoffs, and be an intregal part of a championship run for a player who has enjoyed a career year sense being elevated to a starter and getting a ton of minutes in the Titanic divison.

And Everyone who saw Sato play thought he had the raw talent to be a good player in the League. Jamison has never been accused of this.

And the 0=0 argument is weak as you just ignore everything Whottt says and continue with your simpleton logic, where as whottt actually has a point to bring across chump, you are just repeating bad arguments and getting your ass kicked.

When would Sato play?

When would he beat out one or more of Bowen, Barry, Brown, Ginobili, LJIII and Parker when he plays shooting guard with Beno?

Give me a timetable.

Has your prediction for the season now changed, RtoD?

Bowen is going to retire in a few years, Barry will take a much smaller role as he gets older, we are going to lose Brown to free agency, and LJIII hasnt played either.

Sato is a project much the way SJax was, only he is younger and will develop slower.

Im not sure i ever gave a win-loss record prediction besides 82-0 but that changed a while ago actually. I have always believed they would win 65-70 games but i dont know that i have ever put down an actual number.

How many years?

Will no one else of similar talent and potential be available in the next "few years."

Are you Devin's agent? Where is he going? How much?

And to be fair I can see where you were coming from at first with the Sato thing Chump, but you have to know when to conceed something, Whottt is right here, we lost what could turn out to be a great player for a shitty one.

That's hard to gauge, Malik did not play in every game but there are some games he played an intregal part in, I can not be sure how Nazr is going to do in that role. I still think they win at leats 60, and if Robert Horry is healthy i would stick firm to 65 at least.

Did the SPURS give MALIK a huge contract because they were afraid the Lakers were going to try to sign him I recall few topics on this that summer.

So the Spurs lost two first round picks and their second round pick? Nazr better come up big or this trade will be a flop.

We don't need the draft picks. Pop and RC have gotten extremely lucky the last three drafts at #28. The real value of this trade is that the Spurs will get to keep Devin Brown and sign Scola this summer. It also gives them cap space to pay Parker's bump in summer 2006. This team stays superior by being deep, and that means being able to sign veterans and free agents.

We already had exceptions to allow us to sign Devin and Scola.

But the reality is that Malik is more proven than either of those guys.

Malik is better than Devin at this stage of the game...and who knows about Scola? What happens if he plays in the NBA like Duncan played in the Olympics?

Guy hasnt play a single game in the NBA yet and you guys already have him in Springfield.
