Trade/Keep

[SuperManu!!!]

Who would you try to keep and who would you try to trade?


Duncan = keep
Parker = keep
Manu = keep
Barry = trade
Nazr = trade
Udrih = keep
Van x = trade
Rasho = keep
Finley = keep
Oberto = keep
bowen = keep
horry = don't give him a new contract....too old

[coachmac87]

ok if the spurs trade anyone...its going to be either barry or rasho...problem with them is well they are not that good....and they cost alot...

[E20]

Keep Barry.

[ploto]

No- if anyone is gone first it will be NVE and Nazr- expiring contracts are the easiest out.

[ALVAREZ6]

Either Barry or Finley has to go.

[DuncanInYourFace]

this has to be Barry, the guy can't inbound the ball to save his life.

[Don Quixote]

I like sending Barry to New Orleans for J.R. Smith, as the team tried to do back in Feb. They need some experience and we need young guys. Right now, we are way too old to keep up with Dallas.

Duncan, Parker, Manu, Bowen--keep them, pretty obvious. As if Duncan could ever leave. He IS the Spurs!!

Fin, Oberto, Nazr and his mitts, Beno--keep.

Horry, VanExel, Rasho, Barry--try and find a taker for them. There's always Isiah Thomas in N.Y. who would be more than happy to help us by taking on bloated contracts. (BTW, He is about 6 months away from acquiring Kenyon Martin. Martin, who is overrated, has a bad knee and a terrible attitude, and is owed about another $80M over 5 yrs, would fit in just fine. But I digress.) How about Rasho for ... Channing Frye?

We'll reload and win it all next year!

i agree except i'd try and trade beno again for a 1st round pick, we don't have one this season. also NVE is retiring so no need in trading him.

[Tobias]

Everyone but Duncan, Manu, Parker, Bowen, and Finley should feel they might need to buy new luggage

[Brutalis]

We will semi rebuild for sure. Age and our weakness at youth and energy is showing like we knew it would.

Barry and Nazr will be gone. Exel too and a great possibility Horry is out.

I don't see Rasho moving for some reason, 90% of the time he's useful against most NBA teams we play.

Parker will only improve and Duncan will stay the same. Manu is a wildcard to me based on his on/off style of play. Never know when it's on or off.

[SequSpur]

Trade Manu.

[Melmart1]

The season ain't over. Let's get game 5 and see where that takes the team...

[Emanuel20]

if we only can get five so we can switch the momentum of games

[spurschick]

Van Exel has already said that he is retiring after this season.

[Brutalis]

The season ain't over. Let's get game 5 and see where that takes the team...
i for one never said it was.

[td4mvp21]

Trade Duncan. Choker!

[snowboarder]

Trade Nazr

Trade Barry only if it's for JRSmith. Other than that keep Barry

[Spurologist]

Nazr/Rasho - bye bye
Vanx - retiring

[Kori Ellis]

Win or lose, I'd ...

Duncan = keep
Parker = keep
Manu = keep
Barry = trade
Nazr = trade or let walk
Udrih = trade in a package if necessary
Van X = retire
Rasho = trade if possible
Finley = keep
Oberto = trade in a package if necessary
Bowen = keep
Horry = retire
Marks = irrelevant
Sanders = irrelevant

[spurschick]

Duncan > keep
Parker > keep
Manu > keep
Bruce > keep
Finley > keep
Oberto > keep
Horry > keep or retire
Marks > free agent = keep for cheap or retire

Sanders > jury's out

Scola > keep or trade

Barry > trade
Nazr > free agent = c-ya
Udrih > trade
Rasho > trade

Van Exel > dead to me

[beachbarbie948]

Duncan = keep
Parker = keep
Manu = keep
Barry = trade
Nazr = keep
Udrih = keep
Van Exel= retiring
Rasho = trade if possible

Oberto = trade if possible

[spurs=bling]

Van Exel > dead to me
:lol

[Darrin]

Who would you try to keep and who would you try to trade?

Duncan = keep
Parker = keep
Manu = keep
Barry = trade
Nazr = listen to offers.
Udrih = listen to offers.
Van x = trade
Rasho = listen to offers.
Finley = listen to offers.
Oberto = keep
bowen = keep.
horry = do not re-sign.

[E20]

I can't wait until Horry drops like 20 threes in the upcoming rounds. We'll all switch our minds, sign for 3 more years.

[snowboarder]

Win or lose, I'd ...

Duncan = keep
Parker = keep
Manu = keep

Sanders = irrelevant


horry's gonna retire?

[Spurologist]

Kori, do you believe Horry will retire after this season?

[aaronstampler]

I'd keep Tim, Manu, TP, Bruce, Fin, Beno, and Barry.

NVE, Nazr, and Horry have to go/retire.

I think Rasho is untradeable, and Oberto I don't really care either way.

We need some bigs and maybe an athetic, young defensive 3.

[Kori Ellis]

I think he said he was playing 1 or 2 more years (including this season).

I'm just saying what I prefer.

[Kori Ellis]

We need some bigs and maybe an athetic, young defensive 3.

No maybe about it. They've needed it for a couple years.

Imagine if the Spurs had a young defensive 3 that could guard Howard while Bowen guarded Dirk in this series!

i prefer him to stay

Love Gerald Wallace. The only player (besides D-Rob and Hakeem) to average 2 blocks and 2 steals in the same season. He'd probably cost too much though.

[TDMVPDPOY]

Udrih = listen to offers.
Van x = trade

Dude was a deep bench dweller when SAC was making a push to the finals. He was cheap then. That was then this is now.

[shelshor]

My wishes
Keep:
Duncan
Parker
Ginobili
Bowen
Finley

Trade:
Nazr

If someone better is available, trade, otherwise keep:
Barry
Oberto
Marks
Sanders
Udrih
Rasho
Horry (or join Van Exel in retirement)

Retiring:
Van Exel

Needs:
Rebounding--Tim can't do it alone
Athletic 3
A protege for Bruce to teach defense
Reliable backup point guard

[Condemned 2 HelLA]

Tim, TP, Gino and Bruce are keepers.
Everyone else is expendable.

[JLH Fans]

Udrih = keep
Van x = trade
Rasho = keep
Finley = keep
Oberto = keep
bowen = keep
horry = don't give him a new contract....too old

Van X will retire
Nazr will quit
Barry....If NOH won't give JR for him,I don't think he is a tradeable.

[Horry For 3!]

Horry signed a 3 year contract I believe and after that is up he is retiring.

[Horry For 3!]

The Spurs defintely need another PG. It has shown in the playoffs that NVE is old and broken down and Beno is not even close to being ready or if he ever will.

[JLH Fans]

Win or lose, I'd ...

Duncan = keep
Parker = keep
Manu = keep
Barry = trade
Nazr = trade or let walk
Udrih = trade in a package if necessary
Van X = retire
Rasho = trade if possible
Finley = keep
Oberto = trade in a package if necessary
Bowen = keep
Horry = retire
Marks = irrelevant
Sanders = irrelevant

Kori How many years have left from Findog's contract 1or 2?
Oberto=He has'n got much trade value
Rasho= nearly untradeable,but I would take him back to Minny for Jaric.
How about that?
We desperately need some inside presence and even Nazr or Rasho would be a help for a MLE.

[JLH Fans]

Horry signed a 3 year contract I believe and after that is up he is retiring.

Maybe I am wrong,but as far as I know,the last year of his contract is a team option.

[Horry For 3!]

Maybe I am wrong,but as far as I know,the last year of his contract is a team option.
I have no idea, I just know he signed a 3 year contract worth 10 mil

I think the same! But really like to keep Barry maybe as a back up point guard+ shooting guard

[Bruno]

Parker
Manu
Bruce
Finley
Horry

Trade :
Rasho
Barry
Oberto
Udrih

Don't re-sign :
NVE
Nazr
Sanders

Re-sign if we don't have another 6th bigmen :
Marks

Finley signed for 3 years -- so 2 more.

Oberto makes 2.5M, that's why I said trade him in a package if necessary. Probably no one would want him on his own, but if you were putting together a package and you needed salary to come together -- he makes a bit.

I know Rasho is nearly untradeable, though his contract sucks, it's one year shorter now so they will probably keep trying.

[JLH Fans]

I have no idea, I just know he signed a 3 year contract worth 10 mil
SO 2 years left now 1+1team option.
I think he will retire next year.

[Gummi]

First of all. Finley is not going to be traded. He signed for a lot less money here so Pop and RC aren't going to trade him after a pretty good season just because we need to get younger. Trading Barry however is a more likely since they almost traded him to New Orleans. Even though I really like Barry's game and his character.

The obvious goners are Van Exel (due to retirement) and Nazr (free agency).

Now I'm going to stop this off season talk and focus on GAME 5.

[twincam]

Get rid of VanExcel, he simply doesn't fit in the Spurs' chemistry. He is a premature shooter, that is transition offense material...San Antonio is not that. Get rid of him...his shooting is simply terrible.

[Don Quixote]

I know Rasho is nearly untradeable, though his contract sucks, it's one year shorter now so they will probably keep trying.

I wouldn't say he's untradeable ... there's always Isiah.

[Manu'sMagicalLeftHand]

Duncan: keep
Manu: keep
Parker: keep
Bowen: keep
Finley: keep
Barry: try to trade, but only if you get something better in return
Rasho: see above
Beno: keep, unless there is something valuable in return
Oberto: see above
Marks: same as Udrih and Fabri
Nazr: trade or let him walk away
Sanders: see above
Horry: he will retire. Otherwise, keep
Van Exel: retire (hopefully)

Scola: keep or trade for a long, athletic SF who can shoot the 3.
Javtokas: keep and bring him
Sanikidze: keep but don't bring him yet
Mahinmi: see above
Karaulov: see above (or trade his rights if there's anyone willing to do such a thing).

[abelle23]

NVE-retire
nazr-trade

[venitian navigator]

Hallo to everybody (that's my first post).
her's my idea : 1) trade rasho, udrih and mohammed to new orleans (i think they have some cap space) for j.r. , macjauskas, a first choice in the upcaming draft and a re-signed claxton; 2) sign jared jeffries (MLE ?), scola, javtokas and, in case, sinikidze.
I thin that, after all, is the best we can afford...but I'll never gonna underestimate R.c. and the othars of the crew (ex. mr.Presti)

[Manu'sMagicalLeftHand]

If we could only get Nocioni...

Dirk's vagina would be bleeding in pain at the moment.

[SlovenianGuy]

Duncan: keep
Parker: keep
Manu: keep
Finley: keep
Beno: keep
Horry: trade if he doesn't retire, keeping him isn't a bad option either
Bowen: i like him, but he is not getting any younger, so I would consider a trade if the Spurs can get a good young athletic forward or center in exchange (Danny Granger?)
Barry: if you can still trade him for J.R. do it
Rasho: probably a keeper - i don't know what the Spurs can get for him?
Nazr: sign and trade or let go
Van X: retire
Oberto: keep (give him another chance?)

bring over Javtokas
