Supposedly about to go down. Per espn radio.

Added by Kori:

I'm not sure why you all are reading the first post, then skipping to the end of the thread and ripping the original poster for making things up.

The original poster is only repeating what was said on Chris Duel's show on ESPN Radio. Duel had a source on his show on Thursday with connection to the Pistons who said that the Spurs were talking about a deal with the Pistons that involved Finley and Fab (PLUS MORE) for Rasheed. A third team or multiple other players from the Spurs would be involved.

So, please, stop jumping to the end of the thread and ripping the guy who started the thread. He's just the messenger repeating what was on local radio. As with all trade rumors, it's just a rumor for now.

That's nowhere near enough salary to get Sheed..

Perhaps ESPN Radio should use ESPN.com's brand new trade machine!

Well, if it's true (and I pray that it is), I will be the happiest dude in the galaxy. We gain Sheed and lose Finley. I've done the math -- two positives equal a double positive.

I don't see what is in it for Detroit. Maybe they know Sheed is not in their future and that he wants to go to the Spurs. So as long as they get to keep their cap space, then they will grant him his wish out of respect?

Too hard to believe though.

timvp
02-12-2009, 07:42 PM
The Spurs have to throw in other players and some incentives. Fab and Fin aren't nearly enough.

It'd probably take something like Fab, Fin, Bowen, Horry and picks/Splitter/Mahinmi/cash for Wallace.

He would, and I'd assume he would.

I'm thinking if the trade went down it would be

Finley Oberto Horry's carcas, and Bruce Bowen. thats close to matching salaries. a second rounder might get thrown in. I dunno.

God these radio rumors are hilarious sometimes. Terry Porter's firing was supposed be announced a half hour ago according to KTAR, hopefully for the Spurs the story a radio station fabricated about them turns out to be true.

The Spurs would only need to make up 5 million if it was just Fab and Fin IIRC. If they can sign Horry then ????

Bowen would come back if traded. Same probably the case with Finley. Not sure about Oberto but he could very well be on the "trade, waive and re-sign" bandwagon.

Well that's a bummer.

Question: Can't teams pick him up off of waivers after 30 days? Why wouldn't some team do that to fuck us over if true?

I just don't want to go without Bowen even for 30 days. Even used sparingly he impacts our defense.

Why'd he change names, he get banned???:wow:wow:wow

And I'm assuming that they will drop Fin so Pop can sign him back. Such a better idea than Bruce leaving. Him and Hairston can divvy up Fin's minutes. And when he gets back, he'll be the backup 3. Like it always shoudl've been.

EricB
02-12-2009, 07:48 PM

Horry for $5M, plus Finley, Fab, Vaughn, picks, cash, Splitter/Mahinmi works without Bowen.

timvp
02-12-2009, 07:50 PM
The tough part is that Detroit can't take back more than one extra player. So that narrows the possible trade to . . .

Bowen, Fin, Fab and Horry for Wallace, Acker and Sharpe.

The everyone gets waived but Wallace. Bowen, Fin and Fab eventually return. Pistons can take back Acker and Sharpe if they want them. Horry can retire with more money.

That said, for the Pistons to go through all that trouble, they'd have to be getting something pretty good. A couple of picks? Splitter? Mahinmi?

DPG21920
02-12-2009, 07:50 PM
The max. But anything over $4.3 makes him BYC.

So then if Fab + Fin = 5M short, we can sign Horry for 4M and throw in Ian and have salary matched deal.

EricB
02-12-2009, 07:50 PM

He then said something stupid like "the Spurs are trying to get Detroit to eat some of the salary, wich we know cant happen.

Rasheed for Finley, Bowen, Oberto and Mahinmi doesn't quite work out CBA wise.

1) Rasheed for Finley, Bowen, Oberto, and Udoka does.

2) Rasheed for Finley, Bowen, OBerto, and Hill does.

3) Rasheed for Finley, Bowen, OBerto, and Vaughn does.

The big question in my mind is would Detroit buyout Bowen? If he comes back, I definetly do 1) & 3) even assuming something like splitter's rights are included...

As for why Det does this, currently they are slightly above Lux tax at a payroll of $71,795,804. This would save them enough salary that they would be recieving a lux tax payout, rather than paying in (~ 5 million net gain, counting them paying ~2 million in tax, and a payout of ~ 3 million).

coyotes_geek
02-12-2009, 07:52 PM
So then if Fab + Fin = 5M short, we can sign Horry for 4M and throw in Ian and have salary matched deal.

Yes, but like Timvp just pointed out that makes Detroit have to start cutting a bunch of people to clear room for all those guys. Something they probably won't want to do.

While it would be great to get Wallace, I hope we don't give up too much, considering the luxury tax benefit for Detroit is at least a partial incentive. I really would hate to lose any of our young prospects (Splitter, Mahinmi, or Hill). We better not lose more than one of them (if that) for a 5 month rental of Wallace.

coyotes_geek

Finley needs to give consent to a deal. His situation is similar, but slightly more complicated, to Devean George's last year when the mavs tried to trade him in the Kidd deal.

I'd love to see this just cause big trades are always cool, but I doubt there's any merit to it based on a real estate investor and a dude from Detroit and their VERY reliable "inside source".


I've never seen a trade someone's "reliable inside source" told them about that turned out true.

The salary aspect of this trade is workable. The trick will be the roster spots. Dumars will have to be willing to throw away at least two of his scrubs (Acker, Sharpe, Bynum and Herrmann [probably wouldn't work because he makes too much]).

Bowen, Fin, Fab and Horry for Wallace, Herrmann and Sharpe would work. Saves Detroit at least $2M. Potentially much more adding in the fact that they'd get under the lux tax threshold ... plus they could buyout Bowen, Fin and Fab for less than what they are owed.

Still a pipe dream at this point but interesting . . .

Supposedly about to go down. Per espn radio.

Throw that damn, worthless Ime Udoka in on the deal. Even throw in Ian Mihimi in if needed since he'll never play a full game in the NBA anyway.

Tim will make sure Sheed understands what the Spurs are all about. Sheed will become a team player again like he was when Detroit won the NBA Championship in 2004.

Then you could pick 3 or 4 of us off these message boards and we'll play for the league minimum plus all the beer we can drink, as bench warmers. Playoffs are mainly about an 8 man rotation anyway.

I'll believe this even has a chance when I see it.

But...

By most reports, Sheed's teammates love him. So I don't think he would destroy the locker room.

He does give away a free point about every third game and he would clash with Pop's philosophy of never allowing the refereeing to be an excuse for a loss (not that our guys don't whine too much already - although it hasn't been nearly as bad over the past couple years).

But none of that is anything that the best post defense alongside Tim Duncan since the 2001 version of the admiral couldn't fix.

If Sheed's contract is about to expire, then why would Dumar's trade for other expiring contracts? I understand getting under the threshold, but he couldn't get some draft picks out of this sort of trade? I can't imagine this happening without them getting one of: Mason, Hill, or Ian.

Pop and Sheed seem to get along well, at least as evidenced by their pre/post game banter, so I don't see this being a big issue as far as character.

And in the playoffs he would shut down Gasol to the point of tears. Sheed defends Tim Duncan as well as anybody in this league ever has. And this just in...Gasol is no Tim Duncan. Nor is Bynum, if you can ever get his "loose" knees to function correctly. Is that what the doctors called them, "loose"?

The Spurs have to throw in other players and some incentives. Fab and Fin aren't nearly enough.

It'd probably take something like Fab, Fin, Bowen, Horry and picks/Splitter/Mahinmi/cash for Wallace.

Yeah, Rasheed is making $13.68 million this season. Spurs would have to send out 85% - $100,000 of that to get him, so we're looking at $11.52 million.

Oberto = $3.5 M
Finley = $2.5 M

Rob was signed to about $3.1M last year, so the Spurs could sign him to about $3.25M or so max (105% of last year's deal).

So far that brings the total the Spurs would have to make up to $2.27 million. That means one of these cases:

1) trade Bowen
2) trade Bonner
3) trade Vaughn + one of Udoka, Mahinmi, and Hill


I'd love to have Rasheed, but no way I'm moving Bowen or Hill, and Bonner won't be moved with the way he's shooting. Aside from the near-impossibility of this deal from the Spurs side, what is Detroit getting out of it? The only explanation is maybe Dumars would do it as a favor to Sheed for the years he gave them.

Also, would the Spurs be allowed to pay most of Rob's salary upfront? No way Detroit would want to pay the whole thing for less than half a season on the roster.

No one's really mentioned that, but I was also hoping that would come into play to some degree. Maybe that, plus Detroit avoiding the luxury tax, gaining tax proceeds and a few picks would do it. Realistic? Probably not, but it would be so awesome.

Yeah, Rasheed is making $13.68 million this season. Spurs would have to send out 85% - $100,000 of that to get him, so we're looking at $11.52 million.

Oberto = $3.5 M
Finley = $2.5 M

Rob was signed to about $3.1M last year, so the Spurs could sign him to about $3.25M or so max (105% of last year's deal).

So far that brings the total the Spurs would have to make up to $2.27 million. That means one of these cases:

1) trade Bowen
2) trade Bonner
3) trade Vaughn + one of Udoka, Mahinmi, and Hill


I'd love to have Rasheed, but no way I'm moving Bowen or Hill, and Bonner won't be moved with the way he's shooting. Aside from the near-impossibility of this deal from the Spurs side, what is Detroit getting out of it? The only explanation is maybe Dumars would do it as a favor to Sheed for the years he gave them.

Exactly what I have been thinking. Maybe Sheed and dumars had a meeting together and cam to an agreement that sheed does not fit in the futer movement of the Pistons, and Sheed told him he would love to come to San Antonio if possible. Otherwise yes it is a bit of a strange trade.

Okay I just talked a friend who works for the Pistons and he said yes there is something happening. He could not give me all the people involved but did say that Duncan and Parker would be going to Detriot. He was pretty sure Kwame Brown and a few other players would be going back in the deal. Stay tuned this is going to be huge.

Serious?

Dr. House, are you scared now, or simply terrified?

Iloved your lame comment about Sheed only hoisting threes these days. You forgot the fact that he makes threes, not just shoots them. And in the playoffs he would shut down Gasol to the point of tears. Sheed defends Tim Duncan as well as anybody in this league ever has. And this just in...Gasol is no Tim Duncan. Nor is Bynum, if you can ever get his "loose" knees to function correctly. Is that what the doctors called them, "loose"?

With Sheed, you LA punks wouldn't get within 15 points of us in any game, anywhere.

We'll wave to you from the Riverwalk in June, Dr. House.

Terrified?

yeah..that's one thing that could be scary...but then again, the playoffs is what matters most. 30 days would be rough without him, but our guys would have to step up...we can do it...:flag:

Agreed, but Bowen is not,and doesnt seem like he will be getting alot of minutes before the playoffs anyway. So I'm not sure we would be hurting to much duiring the 30 days.

Apparently it's a rumor, but it was mentioned by VERY reliable sources that it has been announced to be very close to being done. Would involve Fab and Finley going to Detroit, along with some others, and bringing Rasheed to SA.

it actually makes sense for detroit to ditch wallace right now especially if he has already declared his intent to leave next year. rather get a few 1st rounders or high potential young players than nothing. hard to see spurs pull this off without involving the spurs mortgaging their future.

It's not like this thread was just made up. It's something that is being reported rumor from a Detroit source on a radio station here and is a topic of discussion. You don't need to believe it, but the weird bashing of the original poster isn't necessary.

This is what I was discussing with JamStone. It does make some sense if they are not getting any other offers. If they can save millions, keep their cap space and get a young project big, then that is not a bad haul for Sheed.

The only thing he was arguing was that Dumars said he is not giving up on this season.

Also, would the Spurs be allowed to pay most of Rob's salary upfront? No way Detroit would want to pay the whole thing for less than half a season on the roster.

Horry is a free agent and the Spurs have full bird rights on him. They can sign him for anything up to the max. The 105% would come into play if he were still under contract and signing an extension.

Also, the 85% is from the old CBA.
