The way the Andres plays, he could become a fan favorite within a few games and give Manu a run for his money.

But Nocioni AND Duhon??? Are you fuckin kidding me?!?!?

I'd shit...I'd litterally SHIT.

First off, I don't know if you can teach a guy to not be selfish and have a good attitude. Secondly, in the NBA athletes do grow on trees. Twos and threes who are 6'7 210 come off assembly lines in the U.S. We already got James White don't we. I doubt Williams is as athletic as him.

Yeah that was impossible when Stephen Jackson was a Spur. Glenn Robinson too.

from everything said about williams, he can put the ball on the floor and get to the rim. a young slasher is something good for this team, and if he can play and learn the system in austin what the hell is wrong with that?

Otherwise, it would significantly lower his trade value. He is said to be working on a large, long-term contract in Europe, so that indicates risk for any team that would be trading for him.

Scola, the player, is probably worth alot more that Scola rights....na mean?

Yes, I get what you are saying. But I think trying to get a sign and trade done would be a nightmare. So I think they'll continue to shop his rights as they have been.

The article mentioned the similarity between Noc's and Scola's buyout. What differences have kept Scola in Europe while Noc was brought over?

Of course they are, the Spurs would have drafted him if it hadn't been for that screw up by an ex scout that said Nocioni was draft ineligible. I'm pretty sure Nocioni is the first guy the Spurs will go after.

Re: Scola for Nocioni Picking Up Steam?

Uh, 08 plan?

Signing Andres to a 4 year 30 million dollar deal, horribly screws with that.

Remember that.

I wouldn't want it to. Nocioni may be worth 7.5 million averaged over the life of his contract, but not for next year's salary.

Re: Scola for Nocioni Picking Up Steam?

You can't do a S&T with Scola. Either you trade his rights or you trade him 30 days (or more) after he has signed with Spurs.

Trading Scola's right isn't a big problem at all : Spurs just need to ask to Scola what contract he wants and if he will agree to play in Chicago. If Bulls know before the trade that Scola will agree to sign a $10M/3years contract with them one day after the trade, I don't see where the problem is.

LOL. James White is an athlete that can't shoot. Marcus is an athlete that can. Dumb discussion.

Nocioni wanted to come to the U.S. while Scola didn't.

Uh, it's a little shortsighted to think that the Spurs wouldn't agree to a deal past '08 if they got a player they would want for the next 5-6 years anyway. Quit being so dense.

Don't everyone get pissed when the Spurs turn this down due to "flexibility" :lol

the hell?

and Scola is also only 26 or 27

Do the Spurs even want Nocioni?

I remember a post game interview where Pop said that the Spurs have been interested in Andres before he came to the league. If you look at what the Spurs need and how he played I don't see a reason why the Spurs would not be (at least) interested in him. If they can get it done is another question. :) But I think they will take a look at it.

The Spurs will be only interested in one year contracts.

Book it.

If the Spurs can get Nocioni, it becomes the 07/08 plan.

The security guard keeping you the required 800 feet away from Rasho, doesn't have the inside scoop either.
