Oh, I think he could. It's just a matter of will he?
The thing about Tim is that he's an NBA caliber athlete, and yet at the same time, I'm convinced he's probably MENSA class, intelligence wise. He knows what the other team is trying to do defensively on almost every play, and he knows it in about half a second, and he makes the right play, either pass or score.

Re: Would you trade Tim Duncan for Greg Oden?
Why are the Spurs worried about 2011, again?
The Spurs are 3 wins away from their 3rd championship in the last 5 years with the core of TD/TP/Manu and they should blow it up for someone who might be really good, someday? Do Spurs fans not realize what they have?

Re: Would you trade Tim Duncan for Greg Oden?
Before I forget, some of you need to lookup TD's birth date again. He's 31, not 35. His game is not based primarily on athleticism but rather positioning, judgment, and pace. He should be able to play at a high level for the next 5 years. That's half a decade of a proven championship player and system. I'm not even sure why I have responded to this thread other than for the fact that I am shocked that I would even see such a stupid hypothetical posed in this forum by a Spurs fan.

Re: Would you trade Tim Duncan for Greg Oden?
Fuck no, Oden might turn out to be a bust, we KNOW that Duncan is a HOF
also, he's the face of the Spurs franchise...you don't just trade someone like that away.

And let's not forget, against a guy (Oden) that hasn't played a game in the NBA yet. This thread is worthless.

I would not trade Duncan. Let's see how good Oden actually becomes in the NBA.

Not It was designed to get something new to be disussed. To take the focus off the finals for a little bit.
I think It's a fair question. Obviously Duncan will never be traded but Oden could be the next big thing for 10-15 years. As Lakers found out having success is good but you should always look towards the future.

Re: Would you trade Tim Duncan for Greg Oden?
Coming from a tried and true Cavs fan, you must be joking. The General Manager that approves a deal of Duncan for Oden should be made to read Mars threads for eternity. That would be a bad deal for SA. Duncan is the best there ever was. Oden, although talented, is still unproven. Duncan still has about 4 good years left.

Re: Would you trade Tim Duncan for Greg Oden?
The Spurs wouldn't win a title with Oden, not a chance. By the time he gets to be good in this league, Manu will be old, Bruce, Finley, Horry, all possibly retired. And thats IF, ... IF Oden establishes himself as a great player in the NBA. IF he does, it'll definitely take a few seasons. And he will NEVER be as good as Tim Duncan.

It's not a fair question, it's a stupid thing.
You want to trade a proven commodity (best PF of all time) for someone who for all we know could turn into the next Kwame Brown.
Fuck no.

Re: Would you trade Tim Duncan for Greg Oden?
If were removing morality from the equation still no because he's unproven. Maybe Dwite though if were talking from a strictly business standpoint.

Re: Would you trade Tim Duncan for Greg Oden?
Anyone who would trade Duncan for Oden is a worthless idiot and should give back their Spurs Fan Club cards. You would throw away 4 championships for a hyped up rookie. In the words of Red Forman, "Dumbass!"

Come to think about it, Oden does seem like he really would be a San Antonio kind of guy, unselfish and likes to stay out of the spotlight.

Re: Would you trade Tim Duncan for Greg Oden?
Only a moron would trade duncan for oden. By the way I am more convinced that Durant will turn out better than oden.
