Full story at the link above. Just copied and pasted mentions of Spurs and past Spur players.

8. Rasheed Wallace, F/C, Pistons
It's Sheed's turn in the Chauncey Billups tank, a beloved hero of DEE-troit BAS-ketball to be cut loose. Whether he finds similar success in new whereabouts depends on his price tag and team selection. Wallace, who will be 35 by opening night, is said to want another hefty contract, but he's a tough player to project. Can he handle and adapt to a slip in skills? Can he find a home as comfy as the Pistons again? Dallas has interest, as long as he logs minutes at center. Atlanta, where Wallace had a cameo en route to Detroit, is an option. Cleveland makes sense, Orlando might, too. Then there's San Antonio, where the Spurs like him and kind of owe him, for straying from Robert Horry at the end of Game 5 in 2005.
...
15. Antonio McDyess, F/C, Pistons
The bad news on Yao Ming could be good news for players like McDyess, a still-solid pro who could fill Houston's sudden void in the middle. Other big men like Zaza Pachulia, Fabricio Oberto and Rasho Nesterovic should tell their agents to put Rockets GM Daryl Morey on speed dial. McDyess, who reportedly has a home in Houston, owes it to himself to pick a team where he won't be used as a trade tool, as happened with the Iverson deal last November.
16. Drew Gooden, F, Spurs
You would think Gooden might be tired of packing and unpacking by now, having spent time with six teams in his seven NBA seasons. But he might be enticed to move again, if someone wants a low-post scoring option with good rebounding skills.
