Steven A Smith is screaming on ESPN News channel saying that the nets will give us VC for none of the big 3! they'll take bowen,finley..etc He says spurs would be the heavy favorites in the west with VC...and i agree

WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS ORGANIZATION DOING?!??? GET CATER!!!

He didn't say that the Nets would take Bowen, Finley,etc. He was mentioning that the Spurs could offer some contracts like those of a Bowen, Finley, etc.

There's a huge difference between trying to get a big man but not being able to make a trade because you don't have the assets to do it and simply choosing not to go after a big man.

I can't possibly imagine how you could be absolutely certain that the Spurs have simply chosen against pursuing a big man.

how obnoxious this thread is i somewhat agree.. i would hate to see mason and hill go.. by all means they have been great and have showed signs of being great in years to come but.... I think we need to do whats possible to win NOW also. Duncan is having a fantastic year and with carter here with tp and manu i think that really could overlook are big man problem and win us another trophy.
Duncan is not getting any younger and instead of trying to be a contender for years to come (after tim retires) i think we just need to do what is necessary to win right now.. even if it means were risking our future after tim.

WIN NOW.

Ginobili is done for the year. The Spurs have decided to go through the motions for the rest of the year. Looks like a first round playoff exit. Strange twist of fate that the Suns may now be the biggest challenge to the Lakers in the west for the rest of the year. I hate that the f.o. just simply gave up on the rest of the year. Maybe Pop will find a way to get these guys to focus on defense. Kind of doubt it. There's always next year.

the fact that there is only one ball.

y'all act like loading a team with 4 big stars has never been done before...it has - and usually not to championship results.

a big 3 plus role playes who are comfortable in those roles IS the formula. the problem with the Spurs championship aspirations is that not every role is currently filled by this group. we are still lacking a shot-blocking 5 and/or a second post scorer for when Duncan is out of the game.

My guess is that NJ probably wanted both Mason & Hill involved. The Spurs would probably be willing to give Hill, but not Mason.

Wouldn't it make more sense to keep Hill as our buckup PG and trade Mason rather than both? VC will take Mase's spot but if Hill goes too then we're stuck with JV as the backup PG. Even with VC that scenario is a little scary to me. Anyway trading both Mase and Hill destroys our youth movement, adds VC's huge contract and doesn't guarantee a title. I know there are no guarantees but trading both seems like too big of a gamble. Spurs need to bargain better with the Nets but I really don't see VC coming here if it means trading both of them. Can't see Pop and the FO doing that IMO.

There's a huge difference between trying to get a big man but not being able to make a trade because you don't have the assets to do it and simply choosing not to go after a big man.

I can't possibly imagine how you could be absolutely certain that the Spurs have simply chosen against pursuing a big man.

Agreed. Too many posters rant about the FO not being able to get that Big we need but fail to consider what it would take to get him. Right now it seems that most other teams have more to offer for the available bigs than we do. :bang

If no trade and Ginoboli out for the year, there is no point in even trying to make the playoffs. Tank and get your first round pick back from OKC, then retool for next year.

02-19-2009, 03:37 PM

Seems to be working for LA

LA doesn't have 4 stars. They have 2. Odom has been nothing more than average this year (at least until Bynum went down), and it remains to be seen whether Bynum is a star in the making or just an above average role player.

And they've won zero championships with this group, so we'll see.

Its a shame we didn't land Vince. So the Spurs didn't wanna part with Mason Jr. and Hill, on one hand its good because both will now play in San Antonio for a long time but Carter would have given us a much better chance at winning NOW. I mean, as much as I love Mason and Hill...VC, Manu, Tony and Timmy would have been great to watch. Im so tired of hearing Manu will be out for the season because he won't be and now that this trade fell through its a shame because they would have played well together. Now its just another repeat of last year....so fucking lame and boring.

You have no idea what makes a successful team, do you? Nor do you have any comprehension of the long term. And you give up IN FEBRUARY. You are no Spurs fan, just another bandwagon bullshit artist.

If we had to give up 5 players including Mason and Hill to get VC, who exactly would we fill out the roster with? Are you sure VC would be able to learn our system in 2 months? And what about our real need at C? Also, you like paying 32yos 20mil for the next 3 years?

VC was not the answer. If we could have gotten him for nothing, the FO would have leapt at it, but gutting the team on a hope makes no sense.

I was in favor of acquiring Carter back in February, but I'm glad we didn't get him. Have you seen him play lately? The guy defines inconsistency. When he's on, he kicks ass. When he isn't interested, he just wanders around on the floor and takes up valuable space.
