A pair of dirty NBA socks and maybe a stale bag of chips if they are lucky.
So, does he have any trade value? If so, what is it? And should the Spurs consider trading him for a draft pick(s)? If he does have decent value, could he be packaged with the contract of Matt Bonner?

Interesting question.
Maybe Dennis "Dumbass" Lindsey could answer that for you.
Call up Presti in Seattle and ask him.
No, I'd hold onto him. Even if we have to wait 2 years to get him he'd still be a great value and nice piece to have.
Trading Splitter will go down as a bigger mistake than trading Scola. Hold onto him.
Unless he gets injured or declares he will never come to the NBA, his trade value probably couldn't be any lower than it is right now. I'd wait.
Nope. The teams are:
Angola
USA
Argentina
Iran
Russia
Lithuania
Australia
Spain
China
If Splitter stays in Spain, I'm against trading his rights because they have almost no value and I want a payback from Spurs.
Splitter has been a liar and has ed Spurs, I want that Spurs let him rot in Europe for his whole career.
Splitter will play in July a qualifying tournament for the Olympic games. If Brazil win the qualification in this tournament, Splitter will go to Beijing.
While I share your sentiment, Bruno, I'd rather move him now if we can. That is of course provided we can at least get a decent draft pick back or someone to take Matt Bonner's contract.
Well Scola did not want to be a spurs as well
This is a ed up business. If I were a pro my dream would be play with TD and for Pop and organization like spurs.Dayum
Like Boozer 'lied' to Cleveland like Splitter split the spurs
The bad thing is that there are no positives.
Why he decided to be in a draft when he does not want to play in NBA?
Either you look for chalange or you stay happy with what you got and not put up an extra work and get the money.
Bonner + Splitter rights and our pick for higher pick? top 10? top15?
Maybe for Kevin Love.
That would get us, at the highest, #18.
No way in . If we do move up, it's definitely not gonna be for Kevin Love.
I don't see how a team would give something for a player who in 2008 has chosen money over the NBA and will in all likelihood do the same thing in 2010.
I also don't get what people are that much interesting in Dumping Bonner's contract. Bonner's contract doesn't hurt at all Spurs. Giving up "something" to dump Bonner's contract makes few sense.
Unfortunately, Isiah Thomas is no longer employed.
The Nuggets keep coming up in my mind as a trade partner.
They are in tax right now might not want the tax hit of a number 20, especially if it looks like a big man will be the best choice at that point. They WILL need a big man in 2010 though. This could be worked out any number of ways, maybe with sign-and-trade players worked in from both sides.
Buy out his contract!!!!
We'll have money from all the old free agents.
Thoughts:
Phoenix is not going to keep their pick, and Splitter will be a FA again the same summer Shaq retires. Splitter rights plus money for the pick. #15.
Are the Raptors going to keep their pick at #17?
Denver will have to sell their pick or trade it because of their cap situation: Splitter rights and cash for #20.
Splitter rights to the Sonics at #24.
Splitter rights to the T-Wolves for picks #31 and #34. If I were either team, I'd do this trade.
*****
If the Heat draft Beasely, they'll have to move Haslem. What about Splitter rights, Bonner and Finley for Haslem?
If the Bulls draft Beasely, they'll probably move Tyrus Thomas. Splitter rights, a draft pick and Bonner for Thomas?
Just some ideas.
Those are all reasonable ideas, but I think Splitter's value is being taken for granted here. He can still be a great center when his contract is up, and I don't think I'm ready to give up on him.
Bruno, those people are me. And it's because Bonner's a dud. He's eating roster space. They should have traded after that miracle game in Oakland last year.
By 2010, the NBA might have adjusted rookie scales for players coming out of international professional leagues. It's not that the Splitter/Spurs situation will demand it, but, instead the diminishing dollar.
No reason to panic trade Bonner.
F Splitter. I want to trade him on principle.
