If it was possible what active ex Spur would you take back

[carib]

If it was possible what player in the league that is still playing,that used to play with the Spurs you would take back?

I would take back Hedo Turkoglu I like how his confidence is up with his outside shoot.

It would also be good to see Malik walk back on to the Spurs floor again in white and black, and get a standing ovations and retire the next day a true Spur.

[Joe Schmoogins]

SJax... no question.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Might sound crazy, but I think Melvin Ely would've been that 2nd post defender we might need.

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

SJax... no question.
Good one, too.

[Kobayagi]

Rasho.

[ALVAREZ6]

[Sec24Row7]

Barbosa... or Sjax

[carib]

SJax... no question.

SJax is looking solid, but Hedo, is making the big ones as of late, he is coming around big time.

[Spurs Brazil]

Jax

[urunobili]

SJax

Read the thread title. Pay particular attention to the word "active".

Jax.

Hedo is probably a better regular season player, but he's a playoff dud.

[remingtonbo2001]

Does Bell count.

Nah, I'd still take Stephen.

Maybe Antonio Daniels.

[MrChug]

Jax...he won't DISSAPEAR in the playoffs.

There's no other answer to the one posed in this thread.

[djohn14]

Devin Brown, no question. He's not great at any one area, but he's good at everything.

[Leetonidas]

Barbosa... or Sjax
Barbosa was never a Spur.

But most people will agree and say Stephen Jackson. So I will also.

[lonestr]

Speedy Claxton baby!! We can sure us him right now to slash through the middle.

[Sec24Row7]

Barbosa was never a Spur.

We had his rights...

[Dex]

People have already hit the right nails.

1) Stephen Jackson
2) Hedo Turkoglu
3) Devin Brown
4) Speedy Claxton
5) Malik Rose at yard-sale prices

[T Park]

Stephen Jackson

Screw barbosa hes a playoff choker.

Screw Speedy Claxton, he had 1 or 2 good games for this granchise and you people think he was god.

[remingtonbo2001]

Speedy Claxton baby!! We can sure us him right now to slash through the middle.

Close, but I think I'd take Daniels over Claxton at this point.

[batboy]

Jax

[Dex]

Stephen Jackson

Screw barbosa hes a playoff choker.

Screw Speedy Claxton, he had 1 or 2 good games for this granchise and you people think he was god.

Claxton was able to maintain Parker's pace of the game, was a quick defender, and hit shots when it counted. If big shots in the Finals aren't important to you, I can't do much about that.

I'm not saying he's the greatest one the league has seen, but the Spurs haven't had a backup as good as him since he left.

Vaughn is like Claxton Lite.

[td4mvp21]

Stephen. Fucking. Jackson.

[lonestr]

The feel of the game is mostly outside shooting for both teams, if the Spurs can get Damon to slash through for lay-ups it will put a thorn in their side cause it will give them a serious problem to worry about. Damn, sure could use TP for this game.

Wrong thread forum. :lol

[Ghost Writer]

SJax... no question.
Of course... who else?

[peskypesky]

1. Stephen Jackson
2. Nazr Mohammed
3. Malik Rose

Since the West just got bigger real quick, we could use Nazr or Malik. But SJax is clearly the best ex-Spur baller out there. Turkoglu is too soft for the West....

[exstatic]

I can believe someone actually advocated bringing back Blocked By Guards.

Nazr is Elson, minus the hops.

[DynastyBuilder]

SJax

[peskypesky]

I can believe someone actually advocated bringing back Blocked By Guards.

Nazr is Elson, minus the hops.

Nazr is averaging 10pts, 7.5 rebounds and 1 block in just 24 minutes for Charlotte. That's FAR better than Elson. Plus Nazr is stronger, which we might need against Shaq.

Charlotte doesn't run a motion offense or a rotational defense. Nazr was a horrible fit here, which is why he was let go. He wouldn't be any better on a second run.

Why do people think that numbers on one team will translate to another?

[J.T.]

Barbosa... or Sjax

Hi2u, Barbosa was never a Spur.

[peskypesky]

Why do people think that numbers on one team will translate to another?

Nazr had 6.2 pts and 5.2 boards in 17 minutes when he last played for the Spurs. Pretty similar.

[J.T.]

And the answer is Jack, no question.

[peskypesky]

And the answer is Jack, no question.
But who's your next choice?

[tp2021]

i'll take 2005 finals ginobili, 2007 finals TP, and 2003 finals timmy.

[ploto]

Rasho and Hedo-- for personal and basketball reasons.

Someone to guard Shaq and a guy who can pay PF in small ball.

[backtothebeat001]

if you are a spurs fan you will always love stephen jackson.

[Kori Ellis]

Stephen Jackson
David Robinson

[Leetonidas]

We had his rights...
Negative. The Spurs drafted Barbosa on behalf of Phoenix. They had no intention of drafting him.

[ArgSpursFan.]

Scola by a mile.

[Kori Ellis]

I can't believe someone would want Nazr back. :lmao He was slower than Rasho and as dumb as Elson.

[ArgSpursFan.]

As a sports journalist,you do realize that we're not reapeting this season,don't you Kori?
Serius question,not sarcastic at all.

[exstatic]

Scola by a mile.
Scola was Spurs property but was never a Spur.

People, let's try to limit this to someone who was at least on the active 15 man roster for one regular season game. You can't bring back someone who was never here in the first place.

No Scola
No Barbosa
No Salmons

Right.

There's another thread for players that we could've had if not for trading away picks/rights for not much in return.

well,the thread title wasn't that specific.
Anyways:Hedo,Sjax,D.Brown

[Spurs Dynasty 21]

Sjax, and this is not debatable

[1Parker1]

:lmao I'd rather have Charlie Ward back than Nazr and his butterfingers.

[DespЏrado]

No mention of Raja Bell?

My list is
SJax
Bell
Hedo
DBrown
AD

[E20]

1. Stephen Jackson
2. Hedo
3. The original two headed thunder.

[ChumpDumper]

So it looks like we lost today....

[nfg3]

SJax without a doubt. Dude has a killer instinct in the playoffs and plays better D than Hedo. Much better. Anyway Hedo stills leaves me with a bad feeling from the '04 playoffs. Pulled a Houdini on us that year.

[Man of Steel]

Beno

Thank you my friend. I hate the idea of an ignorant Spurs fan...seems they are many and such masses upset me.

[SouthernFried]

We don't need another wing player...we need a rebounder.

Any of the starting centers we've had over the last few years. SJAX is better than them...but, we need inside presence more.

oh yeah, include Scola too ;)

[dallaskd]

jackson or rose, because the spurs could use some toughness.

[SenorSpur]

Jack

[Solid D]

Mos' def Jack.

41 points on a tender ankle to lead GS back from the largest deficit of the season, plus hits the game winning 3 after missing the equalizing FT.

[Amuseddaysleeper]

I didn't think it was possible to have any answer but SJax.

[Road Warrior]

Stephen Jackson and Devin Brown

[bigfundamental21]

Definitely SJax

[mikekim]

Taking my personal opinion and the opinions in this thread into consideration....

1) Stephen Jackson
2) Hedo Turkoglu
3) Raja Bell
4) Devin Brown
5) Malik Rose

Honorable Mention: Rasho Nesterovic
Semi-Honorable Mention: Speedy Claxton
Dishonorable Mention: Beno Udrih

Edit: I take back Speedy Claxton. The guy's trash. I don't know what I was thinking.

[Doctor J]

Malik Rose. Period.

[hsxvvd]

Matt Carroll.

[mikekim]

Matt Carroll.

do you really want matt carroll?

[TDMVPDPOY]

jax
adaniels
raja
rose
hedo

[mikekim]

jax
adaniels
raja
rose
hedo

oh yeah...totally forgot about antonio. Stick him somewhere on the bottom half of my list

[Emeyin]

Stephen mothafvckn' Jackson!!!!!!!!!!!! I can't help but wonder how many championships the Spurs would have by now if they managed to keep our current Big 3 + SJax after the 02'-03' season.

[mexicanjunior]

Stephen Jackson...
