Sign and trade Wright for Bonner + 2nd rounder, cash?
again i live in Miami and he is very inconsistent seen him many games...hell of a rebounder though
this guy is decent on the defensive end...maybe the perfect bowen understudy.
He's restricted though. I say take care JR Smith first
Since the Heat extended the qualifying offer of $2.4 million the Spurs are going to have to overpay based on past performance and pay based on what they feel is the kid's potential if they want to pry him loose from Miami. This would be a large chunk of the MLE. Is he worth that?
Now teams are overspending JUST to keep their own FAs. Unbelievable!
Does nothing for our scoring problems.
It's possible that the Spurs could get him if the Heat sign Jones. They could split the MLE between him and Mason or Giricek.
I haven't seen a 21/22-year-old who wasn't "inconsistent."Quote:

Rights to Javtokas and a second rounder as the main pieces.
that is legitimate offerQuote:

Here's a comparison of Wright and Bowen--except Wright is 10 years younger and several inches taller.
Career FG % 46--last season 48% 3s 36% FTs 82% PPG 7.9 RPG 5.9
Compare to Bowen: FG. 40.1% 3s 41% FTs 65% PPG 6 RPG 2.9
Advantage WRIGHT!
Pretty much a wash on other stats except his were gained playing 25 mpg vs. Bowen over 30.
Which is exactly the reason why Miami has Mark Blount, otherwise known as Bonner v1.1 with no 3point range and older. :rolleyesQuote:

IMO, wright is not being signed to be a scorer but to be a decent defensive option on your taller small forwards or your more nimble power forwards. he can't stop dirk but his length and athleticism may have come in handy versus west and odom last year.Quote:

I think Miami will match any offer for 2 yrs but if he gets a third year miami may let him walk because like us they are saving for summer 2010....I think the spurs should go after him and even with a contract that goes into 2010 we are still in the running to have max money to give a player and get another really good player too.
I honestly doubt the Spurs are looking to him to be that fourth scorer. I think they see him more as a defensive option. He's long and can guard the three and some fours.
If Spurs plan B is a restricted agent, whether it's Dorell Wright, JR Smith or Azubuike, they need to sign him really quickly (today or tomorrow).
When a team go after a RFA, the MLE is locked for 7 days and you can end up with nothign if the other team match.
The soonest you made the offer, the soonest you can go to plan C in case of the other team matches Spurs' offer.
Doesn't he already score more than Bowen?Quote:
