Get us someone taller - PLEASE!
I can't stomach Blatche's contract IMO.
I like Blair but he brung it upon himself. Out of shape at times and lack of focus, two things that are easily rectified with effort. On the other hand to see Matt Bonners corpse get minutes ahead of you has to sting a bit.
That would certainly cause one to be pissed.Quote:

Sixers Interested in DeJuan Blair: DeJuan Blair is on the outside of the Spurs plans looking in, and word is the Philadelphia 76ers would love to have him as a possible replacement for Elton Brand.
Blair is owed roughly $1 million for next season and has grown frustrated with the Spurs. For the last two years Blair played a role in the regular season, only to find himself anchored to the bench in the playoffs.
The Spurs explored trading Blair in and around the draft but could not consummate a deal. Blair has told those around him he expected to be moved and with teams like Philly having real interest, a deal seems probable.
thats from hoopsworld.com
blair has much more value than his contract, therefore i can't see him being traded other than for a pick... and even then, he will be much more valuable than a second rounder you can get for him!

Got it. Wasn't intended specifically for you. Should have said it differently without quoting you.
They played better team ball than us from game 3 onward. They reverted back to hero-ball in the Finals and lost. We could have beat them playing hero-ball if we had continued to play team ball. They even said they learned how to beat us from watching how we played in games 1-2.Quote:

All that team ball wouldn't have amounted to much if it hadn't been coupled with a historic hot streak from outside the paint. They reverted to form in game 2 of the finals and Miami capitalized.Quote:

The Warriors would have an interest in San Antonio big man DeJuan Blair, according to a source. But the Spurs want a first-round pick in exchange. Not only do the Warriors not have one they can give, they wouldn't give it anyway. If the price comes down, GSW would check him out. He's not the athlete they want, but he'd bring the toughness and physicality they need
So we're asking for a first huh? Don't see that happening unless it's a team projected to pick in the 20s.
Convince them to take Bonner too and GS would have the trio of RJ/Bonner/Blair.
If the spurs can pick up another big, I would probably go ahead and take the 2nd rd pick by the warriors if they offer it...GSW is not gonna be very good so at least the pick should be a high 2nd.Quote:

But he's not a good fit in San Antonio.
I don't think a first rounder from a team like GSW will work - maybe one late in the 1st. But to trade DeJuan you probably need to swap young players or get 2nd rounders.
