Someone give R.C. Buford a raise

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

* Trade Beno at his all-time lowest value

* Trade Scola to the Rockettes

* Sign Bonner to a multi-year deal

* Draft Splitter, who hoses us over for Tau

* (speculative) Let's Barry walk, but is probably bringing back Finley


Awesome. ing awesome.

[timvp]

Good thing he traded for Baby Hakeem.

Awesome. ing awesome.

Don't forget passing on Josh Howard and instead trading Barbosa to Phoenix and signing Rasho.

[ducks]

yeah howard is so awesome he is on the block

[spursnatic]

Yes he deserves a raise staight up out of that GM position? 2003 draft could've had Josh Howard gets Barbosa and lets him go for nothing in return. Scola and Jackie Butler go to the Rockets in return Vassilus "sorry ass only play good for my country" Spannolis and lets him go for nothing in return. Tiago Splitter bails n us for more money, lets Barry go instead of trying to offer him more money which he deserves. What the R.C!! SPURS deseve to get better along with everyone else? It's funny a few years ago the league was trying to make moves to be able to stay up with the Spurs. Now they have all kicked it in to overdrive and are on the move. And R.C sits back and does nothing about it? YOU R.C.

If Buford made these kind of decisions for any other team he would probably be fired or that team would be ty. Lucky for RC, Duncan, Parker, Ginobili have kept this guy his job.

[honestfool84]

im just curious, how do y'all all expect him to know who to keep?

yeah, i know its his job.
but he is only human.

how many of y'all would have picked parker and ginobili, back when there weren't as many international players in the NBA as there is now?

all im saying is, y'all praise him when the spurs win, but when they lose, y'all are quick to ride his ass.

Yeah, I figured people would add on. I didn't mean for my list to be exhaustive

Anybody who watched the Spurs last season could see the Barry clearly outplayed Finley when he wasn't down with the calf. I can't remember a season yet where Finley hasn't lost and found his shot three times through.

If you're spending the same money to fill the same position, I just don't see the logic of Finley > Barry. Neither one is a spring chicken, but at least Barry doesn't drag down the offense.

I'm gonna be as pissed as anybody if Finley pulls the same this season, and Barry ends up being a spark for the Rockettes.

the bad thing about it is RC has been riding on the success of TP and MANU. he hasn't done jack to improve the old as dirt squad.

[honestfool84]

you laugh, asshole, but i would be willing to bet you wouldn't know what to do if the team's reigns were handed to you.


y'all are so quick to forget that buford, year after year, surrounds the Big Three with QUALITY ROLE PLAYERS THAT always has the spurs in the running for the ring.

spurs fans really are spoiled.

You're so quick to forget that RC is getting paid a couple of million a year to do his damn job, which he appears to be doing rather poorly over the last couple of years.

Oh yeah, I forgot, add another one - ing up Nocioni's birthday and thinking he wasn't eligible to be drafted.

[itzsoweezee]

if they re-sign finley after all this, i'm going to beat the out of someone.

this team will be lucky to get a six seed. this .

it's pretty obvious now that the brains behind the smart front office moves is now in oklahoma city.

CDR. You wait and see...

[itzsoweezee]

CDR. You wait and see...

it was a no-brainer and they even ed that up.

[2centsworth]

It all falls on George Hill and Mahimi. IF those two pan out, and then RC will get a raise. If they don't pan out, RC will be goners.

[ducks]

who is the worse attention Aggie Hoopsfan or sequa?

Exactly, but I am willing to bet that Hill is decent and Mahinmi is a waste of ing time.....

[Marcus Bryant]

* Trade Beno at his all-time lowest value

Thanks to Pop putting him in the doghouse. Lest we forget who drafted Beno.

* Trade Scola to the Rockettes

Since Holt didn't want to pay the lux tax.

* Sign Bonner to a multi-year deal

So what? Spurs fans a bit too much about that insignificant deal.

* Draft Splitter, who hoses us over for Tau

A gamble using a low 1st round pick on a player with lottery level talent. Oh no.

* (speculative) Let's Barry walk, but is probably bringing back Finley

So what? Spurs fans hang on the nuts of older players far longer than Pop does.

Awesome. ing awesome.

Nah, actually your complaints are pretty ing stupid.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

I'm amazed you didn't turn this into a Manu bashing thread.

So you think R.C. is doing a good job?

Question.

manu not being healthy cost the spurs the le not rc

[SequSpur]

Brent Barry is cool, but as I said before, dude wasn't getting minutes, so let him go... ..

* Sign Bonner to a multi-year deal

If we didn't sign Bonner to that deal, then Holt wouldn't have had to worry about the lux tax and we could have signed Scola.

Good to see your back to being your condescending self as usual...
