Rumor: Spurs get Salmons for Mason and change? (Not True)

[2Cleva]

Done deal




timvp edit: maybe not

[Chieflion]

Where is the source?

[Spursmania]

You should be pinked unless you have a link

[2Cleva]

Bonner and Mason is what I'm hearing.

Salmons has already been told not to suit up tonight.

[Dex]

Starin' at my sandles?

That's a pinkin'.

[z0sa]

This shit better be true, Lakerfan.

[duncan228]

Jeff McDonald: Because Salmons has apparently already been traded ... and it ain't to the Spurs

[djohn14]

Highly doubt that haha...but Salmons is going somewhere for sure. Man I love this time of year.

You never know, guys who have been traded in the past have played significant minutes for their former team the night before...

I think 2Cleva has made it pretty apparent he's not trying to troll. Now he just has to worry about being wrong.

You done stirred up the waters is what you did!

Alridge says on twitter, Salmons not going to a Texas team.

[Slinkyman]

You never know, guys who have been traded in the past have played significant minutes for their former team the night before...

Not if the trade was so close the bulls would hold out salmons, what if bonner gets hurt for example. The spurs would not let Bonner play if he was in the deal.

[kjhip1]

I have a feeling that the Spurs are going to do something. but like everything else, until we see something confirmed, all we can do is speculate.

[Mhak]

My speculation: Salmon is going to Cleveland

[Beaverfuzz]

I'll take Salmons, YEE HAW! Give up chump change basically for someone who can put the ball in the hoop.

anyone heard any news on if the rockets are going to New York or the Bulls for a deal?

[AFBlue]

So, the Bulls get some team to bite on Salmons' $5M contract for next season, but the Spurs can't get anyone to bite on Mason's expiring $4M contract?

Unless the OP is right and it is the Spurs.

[Manuismyhomeboy]

Per ESPN Insider:

On Salmons: "According to K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune on Twitter, John Salmons could be on the move very soon: "Bulls management has told Salmons to remain at team hotel as it works to finalize a trade. Won't play vs. Knicks."

The Bulls are trying to move Salmons for expiring contracts in an effort to clear cap to make a run at two free agents agents this summer.

We told you earlier today that there's word Salmons may have been included in the Bulls' offer to Rockets for Tracy McGrady, but the Rockets weren't keen on him. It's also believe the Knicks are the frontrunner still in such a deal, as we noted in that same post.

Beyond that, ESPN's Chad Ford mentioned yesterday the Bucks could be a potential suitor for Salmons."

On McGrady getting traded to the Bulls: "Looks like it's New York or bust for T-Mac.

Adrian Wojnarowksi of Yahoo! Sports tweets: "Bulls have fallen out of consideration for TMac and Houston focus (is) on negotiating draft pick protection to complete NY deal, sources say."

"'I guess Chicago could emerge again,' a source involved in talks told Y! Sports, 'but it doesn't look that way now.'"

now John Salmons is one player I would love to acquire. He's exactly the Spurs-type player - tough defensively, no ego. And he can score. I'd trade Bonner & Mason for him in a heartbeat.

[8FOR!3]

At this point, if it means him starting instead of Keith fucking Bogans, then by all means, yes, bring in John Salmons. His name annoys the hell out of me though. Salmon, fucking fish name.

Salmons would instantly become the best wing player on the Spurs. For the life of me, I don't see why the Spurs wouldn't want him in a trade with the Bulls. No brainer, IMO.

Yeah, a player that is averaging 12.7 pts on 10.7 att, 2.5 assts and 3.5 rbds in 33.2 minutes of play would instantly become the best wing on the Spurs :rolleyes

[CGD]

You never know, guys who have been traded in the past have played significant minutes for their former team the night before...

Sounds like poor judgment to me. The last thing you want happening is an injury to the player you are trading thereby killing the deal.

Yeah, a player that is averaging 12.7 pts on 10.7 att, 2.5 assts and 3.5 rbds in 33.2 minutes of play would instantly become the best wing on the Spurs :rolleyes

He certainly would be better than Keith fucking Bogans. It's simple, the Spurs would be waaaay better off with Thomas and Salmons > Bonner, Mason, and Finley. Now just do it damn it...

[AFBlue]

Not that this would make or break the Spurs, but I won't believe anything until I see it cross a legit wire.

Salmons was held out, but that doesn't mean he's been traded. We're still in limbo, and we'll be that way until noon (cali time) tomorrow.

[EricB]

Oh well.

Cross fingers for Thomas and or Miller.

[ducks]

This would be the best of all trade scenarios that I've heard.

Come home, Salmons, we've missed you since that draft night.

(I'd have to believe a draft pick would also be included.)

That's the point. It's amazing how so many on this board don't seem to be aware of the obvious.

[mando6599]

Checking in from Madison Square Garden, where Nate Robinson is not in the building (he had flu-like symptoms that sent him to the hospital late Monday) as the Knicks continued their discussions with Boston. As Marc Stein noted an hour ago, John Salmons is not here either, as the Bulls apparently have a deal in place. "There are a lot of things that as an organization we're working on, and John Salmons will not be playing. There's things that I'm not at liberty to say," coach Vinny De Negro said.

The Bulls had been in discussions with the Spurs on a deal that would have sent Salmons to San Antonio for Roger Mason and Matt Bonner, but those talks died.

Chicago has been eager to move Salmons, who has a player option for next season at $5.8 million, for an expiring contract or contracts to clear additional cap space for next summer.

There also was talk at the Garden that the Knicks were discussing a trade with the Bulls that would send Al Harrington to Chicago, with Harrington possibly being re-routed to a third team.

http://espn.go.com/blog/truehoop/category/_/name/truehoop-trade-reports

[Allanon]

Salmons to the Spurs is worrisome for the Lakers. I was happy when he got traded out of the West.

Salmons is one of the few players I've seen who pretty consistently bothers Kobe.

I hope 2Cleva is wrong about this shit.

[DAF86]

That's the point. It's amazing how so many on this board don't seem to be aware of the obvious.

I would also rather have Salmons than Bogans but that's not what I'm arguing, you said that Salmons is better than any Spurs wing and I don't agree with that.

Old one legged Manu > Salmons

And I know RJ has been a dissapointment but he's also a better basketball player than Salmons.

So did the talks REALLY die or are these talks going to pick up tonight after the game or tomorrow before the deadline?

[EricB]

Interesting.

But all indications with those in the know are that Salmons isn't coming...

[Dex]

Mason and Bonner have both played. Everyone has played.

Apparently this was a legitimate rumor at one point...but I bet it's a dead deal.

[timvp]

I hesitate to lock this thread because the Spurs are still talking to the Bullsl so something may happen. But I've been told it will not be Salmons for RMJ and Bonner.

You must be harking back to the NJ Net version of RJ. The version we have is passive, soft and is completely lost on both ends of the court.

Give me a guy who is effective on both ends of the court and has a relatively high BBIQ.

NOT

[Allanon]

You guys don't want Hinrich.

Hinrich's even more injury prone than Bynum and his numbers keep declining. He can't even defend PG's anymore. He only plays great when his contract is on the line, just like Dampier.

And his shooting is in the 30's.

[crc21209]

I hesitate to lock this thread because the Spurs are still talking to the Bullsl so something may happen. But I've been told it will not be Salmons for RMJ and Bonner.

So the Spurs and Bulls are still in talks though it just isnt known what players are being discussed now? Correct?

[Rogue]

genuinely I think Salmons should be a much better fit for contenders than Caron Butler or Kevin Martin, and it's safe to say Salmons can be acquired for nothing bigger than expiring contracts. While Donnie could have got Salmons, or some other guys alike who are less famous yet more useful than Caron Butler, he chose to dump all his dispensable assets on a LATERAL MOVE.

[Rogue]

Fuck you, DONNIE NELSON

FUCK YOU, MARK CUBAN

[SenorSpur]

You guys don't want Hinrich.

Hinrich's even more injury prone than Bynum and his numbers keep declining. He can't even defend PG's anymore.

Yeah, there is this misconcpetion that Hinrich is this dead-eye shooter. At least that's not the case this year.

I'd say you could take Salmons name out.

Tyrus thomas and whatever else could be assumed however I would guess.

Everyone has gone CIA POP

I say salmsons name could still come back up

bulls could have sat him just incase spurs say he has to be included

Devin Brown & TT for RMJ,Finley,Bonner & Ian

Salmons is a Kobe Killer. He and Kobe have probably split their head 2 head matchups, or at best Kobe has a slight edge.

If this rumor is true, the Lakers have to seriously think about a Jazz matchup and hope another team takes them out.

Not finalized, but two sources say Bulls and Bucks may be closing in on deal sending Salmons to MKE for Kurt Thomas, Francisco Elson.

[LakerHater]

By Sekou Smith • February 17, 2010 • 8:23 PM

TNT's David Aldridge has more on the John Salmons saga. Sources say the Bulls' swingman could be headed to the Bucks in a deal that's close to being completed.
HANG TIME HEADQUARTERS -- A league source tells TNT's David Aldridge that the Chicago Bulls are close to a deal to send swingman John Salmons to the Milwaukee Bucks for forward Kurt Thomas and center Francisco Elson.

The move would bring back two expiring contracts to the Bulls in exchange for Salmons, who has one year (a player option) remaining, at more than $5 million. This would allow the Bulls to pursue a max-level free agent this summer, the team's goal throughout this season.

The Bucks would get a starter in Salmons at small forward for the rest of this season and next, without sacrificing cap room for the summer of 2011, when the Bucks plan to be active in free agency.

Trading Salmons alone also signals Chicago is likely out of the running for Houston's Tracy McGrady, as Salmons was supposed to be part of that deal.

There are a couple of rumors, when combined give some hope: Spurs looking for a third team with cap space to facilitate a trade + Tyrus Thomas on the way out (strengthened by the Salmons deal) + Grizzlies w/cap space and interested in Mason + Emo Mason.

If there's one thing T Park knows, it's bad weed.

Bad weed? Nah, this rumor is so good it rises to the hash level.

Oh, well, it was nice for a moment or two . . .

Getting Kurt Thomas from the Bulls would be amazing.

[lmbebo]

Not sure getting KT back would improve matters much. Seemed he had lost a bit too much already. Good positional player though

Or, there is a team interested in Mason and Mason wants to be traded with the Spurs trying to help.

DOn't know if it was mentioned, but this was the rumor.


The Bulls had been in discussions with the Spurs on a deal that would have sent Salmons to San Antonio for Roger Mason and Matt Bonner, but those talks died.

[Sisk]

If Salmons goes to the Bucks for two ex-Spurs bigs and the Spurs do not get Thomas then they just got fucking owned.

It's looking like the FO got owned.. but lets hope they get thomas..

[L.I.T]

DOn't know if it was mentioned, but this was the rumor.

I am not sure which of the three or four trade threads it was in, but someone posted an article that said the Spurs were looking for a third team with cap space to help facilitate a Ty Thomas trade. I think it posted yesterday.

[EricB]

I don't see how a team turning down what you owe to take someone else's stuff is getting "owned"

[Pistons < Spurs]

Bulls and Bucks have reached agreement to trade Chicago's John Salmons for Kurt Thomas and Francisco Elson, a league source tells Y!

Breaking: Bulls agree to send Salmons to Bulls for Thomas and Elson (link coming)

[ace3g]

why do the bucks even need another SG/SF they have enough of them already, while a team like the Spurs that needs an extra SG/SF doesn't make a deal

[EricB]

:lol @ the former Spurs going there.
