Spurs aren't getting Wallace Rump, he's going to be Celtic. You know better.
Even then, Rasheed is a relic at this point in his career. He can't guard Bynum, Gasol in the post or stay with Odom on the perimeter.
lol Blair

Orlando had A chance but didnt have the coaching and experience to do it. While I must say you are the champs and I respect that if that had been A more experienced team you would have been packing. You better hope to the BBall gods that the ron artest thing works and we dont sign sheed or dice because you will by no means be A better team than the spurs. You are still A soft team and your bench is trash.But ill hold off for now because you are the champs. But once again we are coming.TBOOK IT. SPUUUURRRRSSS BBBABBBY.:ihitQuote:

It's amazing how little you forget that Dallas destroyed your team in the playoffs...yes manu was out but Duncan and Parker were there...as were most of your other current players yet adding Jefferson and a past it sheed is going to suddenly make that huge step to beating the Lakers or any of the other top teams?
I do agree though that the spurs are back as being a top contender and it will be fun to see these two match-up.
The only thing that can save the Spurs would be a reanimated 29 year old David Robinson. And The Admiral is not walking through that door.
I will gladly take Blair and Jefferson over Ron Artest. I don't see LA beating a healthy Spurs without signing Odom. The Lakers now have no choice but to resign Odom because they can't use a MLE. Odom is the only player the spurs cant matchup with when on his game.
They have no expiring contracts worth trading for. The Spurs still need a center. However, that player does not need to be a all star and we have both a MLE and a exriring contracts.

If Phil Jackson doesnt stick around that franchise is in trouble.

There is a good chance that the Spurs will not get Wallace or McDyess. They may get there 4'th or 5'th option.Quote:

Sure sounds like a bunch of nervous Spurs fans running around here. Hey...If I was in your shoes, I'd be nervous to. The Lakers would sweep the Spurs with the way the line ups are now. If the Spurs get a big man like Sheed or McDyess, than the Lakers win in 5. You Spurs fans cant be serious when thinking those relics are gonna put you over the top and past the Lakers.
Lakers defense, imo, improves with this signing. Offense would be the same if not better - Kobe will still have his shots. I think its Pau who will get less touches, which I think either he welcomes or is fine with him, being the nice guy that he is As we have seen Bynum's problems last playoffs, this gives the Lakers another scoring option.

Even if the spurs add Wallace theLakers still have the size advantage and edge. But Wallace would it closer between the two teams.
Artest is a beast that plays on both ends of the floor. He will nuetralize Jefferson. Gasol,Bynum and Odom still pose matchup problems for the spurs. Wallace would help but theres a great chance Orlando or the Celtics land Wallace and the spurs end up with their 4'th option.
The Lakers have a great front office.
Your intoxication beffudles me my friend. :lolQuote:

He could behave if he was a clear #2 or 3, and with Kobe, that would be the case. But Ron Artest is one volatile, self-conflicting individual, you never know what is going to tick him off.
