Spurs obviously do not look at these if this is true. I wonder if Tim would voice his displeasure to the media if this happened. I would hope so. Baby does not even shoot the ball well.
He made a couple of big shots and it has over shadowed his very average shooting.
What does he do well?

It was a follow-up story though, but you're right..
Tanguay was the main guy in Boston reporting all the stuff on Wallace, so it isn't really surprising that he was the one reporting it once the verbal agreement was official..
His source for first reporting the Wallace-Boston commitment was KG..so I guess it would take somebody close to Baby to be his source right now, since I doubt he knows anybody in SA..

Yeah I get all that ... the point of the original poster was that he broke the news of the actual signing today.

Agreed. And Rasheed is much much better than Dyess.

Why would Pop want Big Fatty?

Re: Big Baby to San Antonio? Grant Hill to Boston?
this is weird. davis and mcdyess basically play the same offensive role with mcdyess being a better defender and rebounder. are the spurs really going for potential over veterans? after all these years of veteran stacking?

Not sure what Big Baby's attributes are.
Tim needs an "ass-kicker" in the starting lineup next to him. Somehow Big Baby doesn't translate into that type of player.

Re: Big Baby to San Antonio? Grant Hill to Boston?
Davis looked pretty good in the playoffs but he's not a fit. He doesn't rebound. He doesn't block shots. He gets pushed around down low. And offensively, he's more of a volume shooter.
He'd make sense on a team that needs a lot of scoring from a bigman. The Spurs don't really need that. They need rebounding and defense.
Man, WTF. Don't tell me the Spurs want him because of that one time he had that fluke defensive game against TD.

Seriously, everyone here is OVERREACTING BY A MILE! Big Baby is a few inches undersized, but with his big body and low center of gravity, not to mention his soft touch, he'd be GREAT for the Spurs, not to mention he's what, 24?!?!?!?!?
For everyone that remembers how well he did in last year's playoffs (averaging 17.6ppg or so and 7.3rpg), if he averaged those kind of numbers for a season, he'd be WAY OUT OF THE SPURS PRICE RANGE.
Simply put, this guy could be a steal for a decade plus!!!

Re: Big Baby to San Antonio? Grant Hill to Boston?
I guess the spurs forgot that the Lakers have players taller then 6"7

The RJ trade in isolation was a great trade. But what is the goal? To put together a team that can win another title (or have a legit shot) while Tim is a Spur.
If the Spurs look to fill the void with Big Baby, the net effects (handcuffing yourself out of 2010 with much more talent available) could be worse. A team with RJ + Baby is not going to win a title. The PF/C would be awful.
So, you have to look at all moves combined along with the opportunity costs associated with the moves. Hence, I do not like the RJ trade if it lead to Big Baby as the main big (using the MLE on him).

Re: Big Baby to San Antonio? Grant Hill to Boston?
We already have enough ?s in the frontcourt, which is the annoying thing..this spot should be used for a proven guy..

No it won't...RJ fills a major weakness at the SF. Something the Spurs need a much as getting another big.
Let's just wait and see what happens!!!

Re: Big Baby to San Antonio? Grant Hill to Boston?
Taco Cabana employees all over San Antonio rejoice. Overtime.
With Blair and Big Baby Spurs will have a helluva flag footbal team.

He wouldn't be the main big. Spurs will bank on their young guys for that.

Re: Big Baby to San Antonio? Grant Hill to Boston?
Maybe he is assuming that since the Celtics got Rasheed, the Spurs would get Davis. He had true info on Grant Hill meeting with Boston but no real info it appears on the Spurs.

For the record, Big Baby averaged 15.8 points and 5.6 rebounds in 36.4 minutes per game in the playoffs.
So his rebounding took another big drop in the playoffs. Bonner on the glass looks like David Robinson compared to this guy :depressed
