Where's Isaiah Thomas when you need him to get rid of some bad contracts?

Does this also somehow require the bucks' entire front office to undergo frontal lobotomies?

come on - Parker's a MVP candidate, it's a known fact that Bonner would be making $10 mil per year if he'd just make his shots in the playoffs and the Bucks owe the Spurs for RJ (yes, by taking him back).

I don't understand how Spurs fans don't realize how good the Spurs players really are - this team had the #1 seed last year and that doesn't happen without really good players.

[Dex]

Can we give them ducks?

[angelbelow]

If Bogut weren't so injury prone AND if our team was desperate for a center then this trade is worth a look. But as it stands, Bogut IS extremely injury prone and our center position is already filled by Duncan and Splitter.

[DPG21920]

Not to mention the Spurs would have nothing (outside of Ginobili MAYBE) that they would want. Not only is Bogut injury prone but based on reports their asking price is very steep.

[phxspurfan]

classic thread

[Hoops Czar]

Isn't Bogut injured and possibly done for the season? Unfreakin believable.

[Mal]

Why not any thread about signing Aaron Brooks. Those guys from china are coming back, right ?

[Slippy]

Would love to see Bogut in a spurs uniform but it wouldn't make much sense if the way Splitter's being handled is anything to go by.

Splitter from last night's couldn't hit the pine till the second Q. Mat bonner and Bair saw court time much earlier or started. Our best defensive big can't get mins because Pop figured offense was the only way to beat the clips.

Like most other games this season including last night i hope POP notices how effective splitter is when defending the p'n'r. The couple of times he got switched on to Paul he was damn impressive. When the clips took it to the paint where Splitter was around they put up some soft shots. Again it was impressive , more-so because i couldn't remember the team getting any stops all game and the clips seemed intimidated by his presense.

Now remember Splitter couldn't get mins in the 1st. Unbelievable.

RJ,bonner for sjax

Yes

The Spurs could actually play pretty good defense with a defensive gameplan based on TD and Splitter and staying at home on the perimeter. And it's not like the offense has to suffer. Look at Bynum and Gasol in LA. TD coexisted with Oberto, Mohammed, Nesterovic, and Robinson. It's just Pop's refusal to stop playing Bonner so much.

Would of been great to see it atleast tried and tested but seeing how those two don't see court together at all now compared to earlier in the season. It aint gonna happen. Every season, Pop the coach is set in his ways and ideas. No doubt he convinced himself with the ready-made excuses of a compressed schedule and not enough practice time. Plus i remember reading a stat that showed TD and TS arn't very co-hesive when it comes to scoring even if it was a small sample size. Maybe Pop jumped on this like a lot of fans have. Forget growing pains when trying to intergrate a key role player into a line-up.

Best to wait till he's in desperate mode, panics like when we 2-1 down in the first round of the play-offs.

[100%duncan]

doesn't matter if he's injury prone, if we want to win it this year (which they should cos this might be td's last) we should make a move for him so that we can have a much reliable front court come PO. And besides TD can still play at PF he's the GOAT at PF's right?

Bogut isn't due back until mid April at the earliest and the Bucks want Stephen Jackson to be included in any deal..... no thanks!

Story...
http://www.jsonline.com/sports/bucks/bogut-at-crossroads-with-bucks-3q4gjco-142221245.html

Talking points of story...


The situation is complicated by Bogut's fractured left ankle, making it somewhat unlikely he could help another team yet this season.
And he is signed for two more years and $27 million, a lot of money for a team to risk on a player with Bogut's injury history.
But he is a talented big man, a shot blocker and intelligent defender.
The problem from the Bucks perspective is Bogut has been injured for much of the time since signing the deal....
...In the past four seasons he has played in 182 of a possible 293 games (including seven playoff games).Bogut
"I can't control those two things. I've rarely missed games for soft tissue injuries or lack of conditioning or being overweight. They were high-impact injuries."
