Barry is locked up and I don't see anyone really wanting to trade for him and his $5.5M salary.
Finley COULD go elsewhere, true, but if he wins a ring with SA why would he want to leave? He's not going to be a starter anywhere (except some suck-ass team) and I doubt he's going to be offered much more money. Fer cryin' out loud he'll make nearly $22M by staying put.
Cuban might want Finley back in the Mavs. And the ring could be the precise reason for him to leave: he wanted a ring, he got it.Quote:

Finley can't sign with Mavs this summer. It's forbidden by the CBA.Quote:

Spurs need more beef inside.
a player that i know would make them even better is Tyson Chandler. im not sure what his situation is, but i know if either Dallas or San Antonio can take a look at him or acquire him, he'd make either squad better
Finley isnt gonna go back and play for Dallas are you guys nuts??
We know Cuban wants Fin back, he said so about two or three weeks ago and somehow did not get fined for tampering.
Fin's basic response was "blow me, white boy".
As for Chandler, he's signed for the next three years at $10-11M and has a player option the year after that.
premature ejac.

I don't think you guys need to preach getting one more win,Spurs will do that. The repeat question, thats a good one. Spurs chances of repeats since 2003 have been riddle with one of a kind events. Lets not make any excuses, spurs were out coached and under prepared in 04 and in 2006 where mavs put together a great team to match up against the spurs.
Are the spurs going to use, butler, ely, and bonner as players on next years team? One thing is for certain Winning the title is a total different breed of animal then defending it. With the arrival of a Allstar in Tony Parker and the presence of a well rounded backup point guard maybe it will happen only time will tell.
You would have to offer at least one of the big 3 to pry Chandler away from the Hornets. Chandler is considered one of the cornerstones of the Hornets rebuilding efforts. Their big 3 is Chris Paul, David West and Tyson Chandler (with Peja Stojakovic along for the ride). Chandler was .1 rebounds per game shy of leading the league, blocked multiple shots per game, and ended the season averaging about 12 points a game through his final 20 games or so. The kid is figuring it out finally and the Spurs would have to give a lot to pry that away.Quote:

Maybe in a few years, but don't count on more than a first or second round exit next year. The rest of the West is just too strong and too experienced to be taken out by a team that is still so green.Quote:
