Jerome James

[bpl]

how about jerome james from seattle? I didn't like him when we played seattle he plays hard all day.I think he would be a good fit for the spurs if we could do a sign n trade deal.

[Manu20]

Hell Noooooooo!!!!!!!!!

[boutons]

hey bpl

did you read what Kori said today? stop starting these dumb-ass threads based on ideas that pop out of your ass.

[BlueShark#6]

That is absolutely out of the question, Hell Naw!!!

[Gummi]

Thank god bpl isn't our GM.

[usckk]

I agree. HELL NO!

[E20]

:tu
Who would you want:
Jerome
Nazr
Rasho

Jerome James of course, he does everything physical. And the dunks I've seen him do during the Spurs/Sonics series were down right monstrous. If Seattle does the dumb thing which does a sign and trade with either Nazr or Rasho you do this.

HELL FUCKING NO YOU WOULD HAVE TO PAY ME 8999999 DOLLARS TO CONSIDER THIS PUNK ASS FOO RASHO AND NAZR INDVIDUALLY >>>>> JEROME BITCH

[genghisrex]

I didn't like him when we played seattle he plays hard all day.I take it you missed the regular season ... and the previous four.

wasn't he THE ONE who said "
I give them(Spurs) NO RESPECT?

:nope

[Gummi]

Besides being a no talent player that can only dunk, he's probably the dumbest player in the NBA. Pop would never ever go out and get a player like him.

[angel_luv]

Hell Noooooooo!!!!!!!!!


My exact thought! :lol

[Mr. Body]

Oh God NO. Let me join the chorus.

[Spurbanana]

:huh

wasn't he THE ONE who said "I give them(Spurs) NO RESPECT?"

:nope

actually, even better...he said, "I don't give them no respect"

:lol

No way in hell Pop even gives him a second glance.

[ca®lo]

ill leave that trash bag superman in seattle where he belongs

[Sense]

how about...

FUCK NO!

[Mark in Austin]

I heard Chris Mullin is planning to offer him their full MLE.

[bigbendbruisebrother]

Big Snack a good fit as a Spur!??? :lmao :nope :lmao

[bigzak25]

i approve of this signing, but agree it is highly unlikely. :tu

the spurs almost got taken to a game 7 vs. seattle. Jerome was a big part of that.

Ah, cinnamon rolls then! Of course you'll have to get him to switch to pan dulce if he winds up here.

[bigzak25]

i'll talk him into a low carb diet.

he'll lose weight by default when pop chews his ass off...:lmao

[Notorious H.O.P.]

ummmm.....No.

Something tells me if you do a poll, as please don't as we all have enough problems reading pointless threads, I think we'd run 90-95% on the resoundling "Hell No" side. The remaining people would offer a "anyone is better than Rasho" but that is a negative Ghostrider. Turning in several dogsh*t years and then not even responding in a contract year, but simply responding in a single playoff series and trying to pretend that it is the real you is simply a joke. This jerk wouldn't put forth the effort despite being paid millions of dollars so I seriously doubt the Spurs would put forth the effort to try to bring him in.

[nkdlunch]

like I said before, Jerome James did the best job as trashman and took the biggest piece of trash out of the playoffs, himself.

[FromWayDowntown]

I wouldn't pursue James, primarily because other than his most recent playoff run, the guy has never done a damned thing in the NBA. Sure, he may have turned a corner and figured things out; but he just as easily may be the next Ike Austin. Think of it this way -- over the long haul of the regular season, James is a 7 footer who averaged 3 rpg and fewer than 5 ppg, mostly because in 16 minutes, he averaged between 3-4 fouls. Both Rasho and Nazr give more production (and are able to stay on the floor more minutes) than James.

I'd be surprised if there was a GM in the NBA who truly valued James more than either Rasho or Nazr. James has had attitude problems at many points along the way. He's a physical player without any real sense of time and score (i.e., dumb fouls at inopportune times), which offsets his shotblocking abilities, which are above-average. And he's got about zero dimensions offensively -- if you don't get him involved in screen/roll plays, he's a complete guest on the offensive end.

[strangeweather]

I take it you missed the regular season ... and the previous four.

IIRC, James showed up for maybe one season right before robbing the Sonics blind with his last deal. This time, he doesn't bother showing up -- even in his contract year -- until the playoffs.

My favorite is how the Sonics drafted the big, athletic, undermotivated center Johan Petro. They figure they're going to to lose the American Jerome James, so they drafted the French one. :lol

[spurs_fan_in_exile]

This guy is a tub. He has all the problems of Shaq with all the talent of Chris Dudley.

This is exactly what the spurs are about. If I need something large and reckless, I go to the nearest home depot.

[Kori Ellis]

Jerome James was signed by the Knicks.

[DDS4]

I give Isiah a lot of credit. He didn't sign another undersized power forward.

[Mr. Body]

Knicks boards burning up convincing themselves this was anything like a good pick up. Saying he gets 1.4 blocks in 16 minutes per game. Crazy they don't mention the 3.5 fouls in the same time frame. The guy is a foul machine... and most of those are on shot attempts... Knicks'll be paying this guy when he's 34.

[orhe]

if stephen jackson never was a spur and we were interested in him now? what would your reaction be?

5 years 29M for a 7 foot 1 center that has shown flashes of brilliance? that's a bargain! i have full confidence in pop and the coaching staff that they'd be able to overcome his laziness etc :( too bad we weren't interested (heck they know a lot more than i do)

[beirmeistr]

One less 7-foot bruiser to beat up on Manu in the West. Remember his elbow to manu's face?

[bigbendbruisebrother]

I know the plaque on the Statue of Liberty says, "Give us your tired, your poor, your wretched teeming masses..." but the Knicks play in the Garden. I nominate Isaiah Thomas as the worst GM in NBA history.

[SMLT]

29M$ over five years... Where was Isiah when James played in France and convinced nobody (but to let him leave :o) and the following years in the NBA... This guy is a pure waste, no skills, no brain and worse, no futur...

I migth be wrong but this deal is yet another tribute to Isiah's legacy. Great player, bad manager (be it in CBA or in the NBA). Sad for the Big Apple... New York deserves a great NBA team.

remember "I give the spurs no respect. None"

[SpursChampsIII]

"I give no respect to (Jerome James)...none!"

[leemajors]

let's see how he likes playing shaq a few more times a year.

[SenorSpur]

Looks like the man they call "Big Snacks" will be "eating up" more of a supersized portion of the Knicks capspace.

[Marcus Bryant]

So much for Seattle as a concern in the West. Moreso because they lost McMillan and (apparently) AD. But James gave them some size up front and had his moments against the Spurs in the playoffs.

[leemajors]

senor, word round the campfire is they used their mle on him.

[waly.mg]

This is 20 less contutions for Manu in the next season

[Spurologist]

Seriously, what is isiah doing? How is Jerome James an upgrade over Thomas/Mohammed? He has to be the worst GM in the league. Kupcakes is creeping behind him.

I think the key to the whole deal was the #30 pick he was able to get from the Spurs. 6'9" PF David Lee was second-team all-SEC last year, so no doubt he's going to be HUGE in the NBA.

Or not.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

we just saw the best seattle team in YEARS and they dont want to make it a point to bring everyone back???

they took us to 6 games thats an accomplishment....we DID become champs....i dont get it

Seattle's management sucks. I think Ray Allen will regret signing with them. On the other hand, I can't believe the Knicks are so stupid! James had a nice playoff series against the Spurs, but he has done absolutely nothing else!

[T Park]

Switch Spurs to Kings and youd be right.

He was mediocre at best VS the Spurs.

He gave the Spurs no respect. None. That qualifies as a good series in my book by itself.

[Mr. Body]

His playoff stats were actually pretty good last year.

[Rick Von Braun]

OK, this is unbelievable!!!!

Isiah MUST be the dumbest GM in the last 10 years!

I think this is the last drop... how long until they fire him? Isiah's days in NY are counted.
