Yeah, whoever that is looks exactly like Almond to me :lolQuote:

Morris Almond will meet with San Antonio early next week before heading to Las Vegas to play for New York's summer-league team.

LJ, would you do this:

Depends how healthy he is. Nocioni's been banged up a lot recently. But if he's healthy and cool with coming off the bench, that'd be a difficult trade to turn down.Quote:

I'd rather trade Finley before Mason.Quote:

I'll have nightmares if Finley is starting at 2 again.
I agree. His health and willingness to come off the bench are key.Quote:

Of course the Spurs would trade Mason/Bonner for Jackson. He can play the 2/3 and he is clutch and a good defender.
Why would the Warriors do that?
I honestly think Gist at the three could work.
Clear cap room for next summer.Quote:

Another trade?
If Finley is traded, that opens up the backup 3 spot.
Hold on guys, I'm enjoying this new roster as much as the next guy, but we still need some continuity. Keeping Finley is not such a bad idea. Granted, I'd much rather have Bowen than Finley, but we still need to keep some grizzled vets to help transition. There's really no rhyme or reason to what I'm saying, it just feels like if you get rid of 75% of our team and replace it with a lot of youth, you might actually be taking a step backwards because of inexperience with the system and each other.
I have no basis for this argument, it just seems like someone needs to reign it in a little bit and not get too crazy with revamping the team
Grizzled vets = Duncan, Ginobili, Parker. That should be plenty.
Nocioni would be a great fit in SA. How about 'small ball' with:Quote:

Nocioni's deal is a bit hefty, though it does decline by a half mil a season. And it doesn't extend past 2012. But that's assuming the Spurs would be fine with adding his contract, extending Manu, and signing Splitter (or someone else) using some part of the MLE next summer. If the Spurs are going all in, I think they should pursue a deal with the Kings. From the Kings' perspective they'd save at least $13.5 mil past next season. If Williams' contract is included then the savings will go up. Of course, the Spurs' lux tax bill would also increase. But Nocioni would be a great fit...
If we could trade Bonner and Finely or even Mason and get Nocioni, :wow
Stephen Jackson would be too great; I couldn't even dream that !
He's so clutch, great shooter, great defender, good rebounder, is unselfish,..
Nice. I thought the Warriors cut him too quickly. It should be interesting to see how he does but I don't see any room for him here.Quote:
