Mike Dunleavy | 34
Position: F
Born: Sep 15, 1980
Height: 6-9 / 2,06
Weight: 230 lbs. / 104,3 kg.
College : Duke '03
Info
He'd be a great fit at the 3 long term for the Spurs. Good size, court vision, handles, shot, rebounding, is coachable, etc...
Golden State's another franchise with a front office that doesn't seem to have a grasp of what they are trying to accomplish. They have a number of swingman and perhaps are ready to move one. Dunleavy's rookie contract ends after next season so perhaps they'll look to move him now before his payday.

Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
He'd fit at the three but not in the same way as Bruce. He's a better passer, rebounder and scorer than Bruce, but is a below average defender. MD2 is basically a better version of Hedo.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
I think the Spurs should go after every 2nd generation NBA player in the league, just for fun.
Except for anyone with the last name of Walton, that is.

so then Dunleavy would actually lean over and try to get a loose ball heading out of bounds? :lol

:lol I totally agree with that! :lol

Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
hell no!
i watched him at golden state. he doesn't do anything particularly well and he's soft. he's a bust. just stay the hell away
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Other than being anglo, what makes him "soft"?
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
No thanks. He makes Rasho look like Kevin Garnett when it comes to intensity.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Have you guys even watched Dunleavy? He's actually pretty fiery.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Funny what skin color does to a player's game.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Fuck skin color, the guy is 6'9", started every game he suited up for Golden State for, played 32 minutes a night, and could only come up with five rebounds a game.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
So? It's not like Adonal Foyle was doing any rebounding out there.
Hell, Golden State's starting SHOOTING GUARD outrebounded your boy.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
:lol
Poor bastard. Good heavens, a starting 3 averaged 5 boards a game. That's horrid!
:spin
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Good heavens, a starting three that got outrebounded by his starting two. That's horrid!
:lol
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.

Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
I don't have to try anything. Your the one with the hard on for trade filler white boy scrub.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
That's right. For it's better to have a hard on for the darkies, because they really know how to ball.
Shut up already, chump.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Yeah, we should always aspire to have a SF who gets outrebounded by his starting shooting guard.
Fuck race, you're the only one around here getting a hard on for a forward (I could give a fuck about race, he sucks) that hasn't shown anything in this league, and couldn't even contend for high rebound honors on a team whose starting center only grabbed 5 per game.
The guy is a bust. He was the #3 pick in the draft the year he came out and averages 10 and 4.5 from the SF spot.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Listen you little bitch, you said that 5 rebs a game were poor for a starting small forward in the NBA. Furthermore, the only evidence you have for Dunleavy's alleged lack of intensity is his skin color. I know, I know, those darkies know how to ball.
Just shut the fuck up already. I know I'm not the only one around here who feels that way about the drivel you post in here.

I can't remember the last time Bruce outrebounded Manu.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Yeah, but Bruce is the best perimeter defender in the league.
Marcus, my hate of Dunleavy has nothing to do with skin color. Fuck, if I cared about skin color Manu wouldn't be my favorite player.
Drivel is getting a hard on for a lotto bust like you are when there's better options out there.
My hate for Dunleavy has nothing to do with race and everything to do with the fact I've seen him play enough to know he makes Rasho look like KG when it comes to hunger.
Drivel? :lol Isn't about time for you to post another Parker-for-Kidd 36 page rant?
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
You are the last individual who should be knocking anyone for posting a "rant" in here.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
You should heed your own advice on posting 'drivel' too, but I don't see you shutting up anytime soon.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Compared to what you post in here, T Park reads like Shakespeare.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
ya i remember what a rebounding the 6' 8" rebounding giant sean elliot was...no wait did he ever average 5rebounds a game....i think dunleavy would be a great fit for this team

Hey, he might be soft, but he has that "high basketball IQ" working in his favor.
Personally, Mike Dunleavy ranks in my top 15% of possible off-season acquisitions.
He fits nicely with the Noah's ark roster philosophy. Seriously.
and sincerely, Brent Barry.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Yeah the difference there is if you put together Dunleavy's last two seasons, you still don't hit Sean's peak years of PPG.
And call me when Dunleavy ever sniffs an All-Star game without having to pay for his ticket (or getting one through his agent).

Do I need to read more?
Who in their right mind expects all-star numbers from, say, a Dunleavy?
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Dunleavy? Whats the difference between him and Hedo at this point? Both offer the same skillset and productivity stat wise. I guess Dunleavy does have some upside left to discover, but so far he has not played any better than Hedo.

To be fair, Dunleavy isn't yet in his prime.

i assume you say this based on the one game he got ejected from and tossed his jersey into the crowd. that doesn't make him any less soft.
he's 6'9" and does nothing but shoot jumpshots. that equals soft.
he had a great opportunity to step up and play big in golden state and he hasn't done shit. especially this year w/o arenas, dunleavy and richardson were supposed to be the main guys. instead, dunleavy consistently showed he's not anything special. he's been able to put up decent stats b/c he's a starter and plays on a really shitty team. as a role/bench player, he's gonna be even more ineffective. like i said before, he doesn't do anything particularly well. he's mediocre (at best) in every facet of the game.
spurs need to stay away from this dud. i live in the bay area, ask any warrior fan, they're not eager to see him back either.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
I don't see Dunleavy as a dud, but as a good third or fourth option on a team. He doesn't fulfill the Spurs' structure of having their SF be the perimeter defensive stopper in any way, shape, or form. He's a bomber but designated shooters can be had cheaper.

last I checked, we had plenty of all stars.

Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Dunleavy is alright too bad he played for Duke and Duke sucks.

Wait who knows maybe if we get his son, Bill Walton will actually start to say the Spurs will win every game. Man he jumped on the bandwagon real quicker than TPark after game 7.

Blue Devils are the best NCAA team to ever make its presence on a college court.

Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Dunleavy would be a great fit in SA. As pointed out in the thread, he's not the greatest defender so the Spurs would have to move away from their current starting lineup structure with the 3 man filling the perimeter stopper role. I don't think that's a major deal (losing Bruce will be, however). Perhaps the Spurs can groom someone into that role (LJ3?).
Also, this thread provides a great reason why AHF needs to hang up the handle.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Above average shooter, but probably doesn't have the defensive skills (slow-footed) needed for the Spurs schemes. Besides, his price tag is likely to be too high.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Anyone can force their man into the shotblockers or baseline. He's got enough length to be effective in a team defense.
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Well, I guess we said the same thing about Big Dog and that turned out OK. I'm still concerned that his price would be too high for the Spurs budget. i iwould imagine some "junk" team would come along and offer him a boat load of cash.
Who's to say the Warriors won't reup him anyway?
-
Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Warriors have a bunch of swingmen. Plus Mullin is not as good of a GM as he was a player.

He's from Duke. We do not need alums of the NCAA's premier cheating factory to come to SA and ruin our team.

Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
I just don't see GS wanting to trade him for what we may offer. If they are overloaded anywhere it's at the 4 and 5 spots. Their swing rotation looks pretty stable.
Dunleavy
Richardson
Pietrus
Chaney

Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
Well personally i still would rather see Gerald Wallace in a Spurs uniform then Dunleavy, however, Dunleavy would be an excellent pick up.

Yes, redemption is possible. But...MD2 is beyond rehab. He's permanently contaminated from his days with Mikey K.

Re: Trade Target: Mike Dunleavy Jr.
instead of comparing peak years w/sean whats the comparison of comparable years with sean. if i remember there were a few fans disapointed that sean did not explode into the superstar status right off the bat....i am a big sean fan just not a dunleavey basher like some. i think he would be a solid addition with his size and range is all i'm saying.
