We don't need Frye, we don't need Davis. We need Dice. Get it fucking done.
Hoopsworld and Bucher shouldn't be used as sources..
Stop dreaming spurm fans your front office's plan is to re-sign old fart argentine Oberto as your starting Center...
No Sheed, No Dyess...No Bass NO ONE!!!
Take that mofos!!! :rollin
I thought it would be cool to see who gets it right.. Let's hear our 15 man rotation..
Parker/Hill/McClinton
Manu/Mason/Hairston
Jefferson/Bowen/Finely
Duncan/Blair/Bonner
Big Mike/Hailslip/Ian
Since the MCDyess signing, Spurs haven't been linked with a single FA. So either Spurs aren't looking at all to add a vet or they are only interested in very few FAs. It surely looks like Spurs aren't actively searching for a specific kind of player like a center, defensive wing or vet PG.
you are right, it looks a lot like that.
I think the Spurs are now in evaluation mode and not in a hurry to get some more moves done. considering this years moves are about as considerable as 3 or 4 average Spurs off seasons together, they can very well call it a day, watch the young players in the summer league and decide, who they will keep.
the other point is, they are in a good position to observe the moves from the other teams and just jump on an opportunity.
btw. maybe an opportunity like this?
just read that the Suns have completed a buy out with Ben Wallace.

yeah I know, no longer the player he was, a shadow of his former self etc.
and he likely decides to retire anyhow.
on the other hand...........for the vet. min.?
Mcdyess and Wallace are very close friends.
(this was pointed out several times when there were speculations where McDyess might go, if he doesn't return to Detroit and when some thought he might end up in Cleveland)
so, shouldn't Dice call his old friend and try to persuade Big Ben to try once more? as bad as he looked last year, 11 RPG and 2.2 BPG in 40 minutes (while committing only 2.5 fouls in 40 minutes) were still a number only a few players can deliver. and at 35 (he is 3 days younger than Dice) it's likely more about motivation than about a totally broken body.
Big Ben in the Tony Massenburg role?
I'm all for it.
Rumor is, the Bulls are going to buy out Tim Thomas. I wonder where he ends up. He intrigues me....lot of talent never realized. Played good for the Suns 2 years ago.
The Spurs should go after Ben Wallace.
The Spurs are short on a third-string guard. They only have TP/Hill/Manu/Mason and Jefferson/Finley as the sf. The backups will be Marcus Williams, Hairston. Hairston has been decent, but, can he develop to be a good guard? The Spurs seem to be well set with the big guys in TD, DB, AM, MB, IM, MH. I am assuming Haislip and Mahinmi's contracts are guaranteed. Should the Spurs now look for a free agent shooting guard? McClinton has looked to be quite far from being capable of getting a roster spot. Who would be a good choice to play for the veteran's minimum?
Judging from what i heard around the watering hole not sure spurs are going to be adding any more parts to the puzzle... Think they feel they have a good mixture of new talent and old's that will need time to adjust.
Now i am curious to see how Matt Bonner will play and his role this yr.
