Maybe, maybe not -- one could just as easily match and trade him later on one's own terms. Or just say "shut up and play for your $90 million."Quote:

How do you get a bigger contract than the max?Quote:

How does one dog it for 5 years without anyone noticing?
Why does Yao want to leave Houston?
Why would Yao ever dog anything?

Do you honestly think if Yao wanted to leave Houston anyone would stand in his way. All he has to do is say is either "I don't like this, or I don't like that! or I want to win a championship. For some players, money isn't everthing! Winning is! I don't know if Yao ever wants to leave Houston. But he's earned the right to explore his options after next year! Do you honestly think Pop would have gotten in Duncan's way if he told Pop that he wanted to leave for Orlando? It's just the way of doing business and personal feelings do play a MAJOR part in any discussions about any parting of ways.
If he was restricted at the time, I would consider it a distinct possibility.Quote:

Great, then he can play for the qualifying offer for a year then go wherever wants the following year without restriction. This isn't even worth talking about until the deadline for extending his contract has passed.Quote:

When all you can say is "Yao to the Spurs for Rasho and Nazr" -- yeah, it's useless.Quote:

If you don't like it! Tuff, you can pass my comments right on by without comment. You're a dumb ass for not even seeing the possibility! Rasho Lover!Quote:

I never said he was better than Yao -- just that Yao will never be a Spur.Quote:

Get a life and how are we going to fit in his salary? You can dream all you like but next season we are still committed to Timmy, Manu and TPark. I assume you passed your elementary maths cause way are the Spurs going to pile on a max contract. Unless you think Yao is going to sign for the anything less than that. So who are we giving up? Timmy? Manu? dont be an ass. I never said that Yao will not sign for another team. Just that it will not be for the Spurs. Shaq moved cause Miami did a trade. Would you trade Yao for Timmy? I wouldnt. Maybe a smart ass GM like yourself would do that trade.Quote:

How much do you think Nazr is going to command next year? Maybe more than Rasho's salary. UUHHHHG let's see if I can get the math right ....DUUUGH 8.7million + 9 million = 17 million. You think paying two scrubs 17 million is better than paying x amount for Yao. That why I said Rasho + Nazr for Yao...My goodness. Tim Duncan "only" makes 15 million per year. If you think Yao for 10 million is just way too much for you, then I guess we know who the real ass is. If you haven't noticed.....Yao is an ALL STAR CENTER. Why would anyone want him. If it doesn't work out....oh well, it's my best Rasho scenario. What's yours and let me critique it!Quote:

Not even close, junior. Just another in a long list of ignorant statements.Quote:

With championships come dumbasses.
Rasho's only getting around 6 million a year. Of course this goes up, but not substantially. And if Nazr wants significantly more than that, he can go play for some sucky team elsewhere that'll overpay him.
BTW, I don't think the whole Yao thing would work anyhow. We'd be tying up too much salary and he's not worth what he'll get paid. Not in our system. The only reason he gets so many votes for the All-Star team is because he's from China. Anyone who knows anything about basketball would agree that Shaq was a better player, although Yao got more votes.
EDIT: I think that's what Rasho got last year, it's probably closer to 6.5 now.
