Status of Tony Massenburg?

[spurschick]

Since the Spurs have become the place for multi-year veterans to win rings, i.e. Kevin Willis, T-Mass, I was wondering what Massenburg's status is? I know he's a free agent, but are their any rumblings he might retire? If so, what grizzled veteran should the Spurs look to next to bring over?

Dikembe Mutumbo still needs a ring. :)

Granted, we'd have to deal with that grizzled-ass voice and his finger wag technicals, but I think he'd be great as a 3rd or 4th big.

We could go after Clifford Robinson, I know the spurs were interested in him a couple of years ago, but I am not sure what type of salary he will be looking for; and he is a unrestricted Free Agent

did he get caught smoking or something, arrested?

I think it would be a good idea to bring Massenburg back, but if that doesn't work out, then Mutombo wouldn't be bad either, especially if Rasho is shipped, or hell, is Kevin Willis still alive?

[JUUOT]

T mass - mutombo or kevin Willis all would be good for me.
OR
since we already have a deep frontline of Rasho - nazr - duncan - horry and maybee scola, we might change the old guy with no ring policy to get a prospect.
i think this change will take place because of the new rule about 13th and 14th men going to NBDL. so it is now valuable to bring a prospect more than an old guy.
The question is who? maybee one from summer league...

[BronxCowboy]

Actually, come to think of it, Willis got a ring with the Spurs in '03, didn't he? So never mind.

[exstatic]

My guess? History. Someone will have to go to make room for Scola, and it will probably be TMass.

They should have used him more in the Finals to send a physical message to the Pistons. He could have come in and thrown some people down they way the Sonics did with our backcourt. Eitherway, I think he is gone.
