European Bonner.
Pass.
I would personally like to see us try and trade for Andrea Bargnani. He is a scoring big man who is very athletic and can stretch the D. He is only 22 and can learn to become a better player. He would compliment Duncan so nicely and fill a team need. The Raptors seem to have somewhat given up on him and he makes a very reasonable 4 million a year. I do not know what they might want, but I think that would be a very good pick up for us, what do yall think?

Given up on him? No. You don't give up on the overall number 1 pick after only two years. Especially when this was Colangelo's "golden child". And if you did, it wouldn't be for spare parts from the Spurs.
Well his playing time seriously dipped in the second half of the season, and he even lost his starting job and he gets publicly reprimanded. Not saying they would give him away, but I think he can be really good, I watch almost every game for every team, and he is very talented for a 22 year old. Do you not even think if we could get him that he would fill in nicely?
I agree with Darkwaters, the Raptors have not given up on Bargnani & if/when they do, they can get ALOT more than anything the Spurs could offer.....I mean I would be shocked if we were able to pull the Jarrett Jack for the Beno TE & picks, that trade is a longshot...trading for Bargnani? Never gonna happen.
Bonner can not put the ball on the floor like this nor is he as tall or athletic.

It's a rookie deal up after next season, IIRC.
Bargnani would definitely solve the Spurs problems rebounding the ball and finding some meaningful shot-blocking other than Tim Duncan.
Is this the insightful information you're seeking from SA journos?
I think the Raptors have another option year after that then he would be restricted in the summer of 2010.
If he really sucks again he'll be getting pretty expensive.
Has everyone forgot about Bonner? () Bonner is a beast when he puts the ball down...ROLL FILM!!!

Doesn't seem like a Spurs-type player...
Sam Mitc had trouble getting Bargnani to play hard and focus. At this point he's a terrible defender without a true position. He plays Center, but he's too soft for the position. And I don't think he's as athletic as you give him credit for.
At this point he's a homeless man's Dirk Nowitzki and with his at ude I'm not sure he ever reaches that potential.
A big man who wont rebound nor block shots.
Bargnani is one of the worst players in the league. On top of that, the Raptors can't give up on him yet. Sam Mitc will get fired before Bargnani is given up on.
It was an idea ... This is exactly what I am looking for from the journalists, come up with some realistic ideas that could happen and fill some needs. Just trying to have a conversation, lets see what you can cook up that is reasonable. I think he is a good player that for any other 22 year old would be considered very good. People forget that just because he was a number one pick, that he is still very young. I like him, you do not have to.
You're an idea !
dpg....You're Out Of Your Element!
Samir Not-gunna-work-here-anymore: "This is terrible, this idea. Terrible."
Bargnani blows. He has lost so much respect from me I will now call him by pronouncing his name how it is spelled.
Andrea (which is a girl's name) BARG-NAN-EE!
At this point I'd rather we not have the Spurs' offseason plans hitting the press.
And this forum is the perfect place to discuss the Spurs' offseason.
This is a !
Greatness with Samir
Did Elson rebound or block shots? Does Oberto rebound or block shots? Are they younger or more athletic than Andrea? Can they spread the floor on the offensive end like Andrea? Does Oberto have room to get better? Does Andrea?Bargnani would definitely solve the Spurs problems rebounding the ball and finding some meaningful shot-blocking other than Tim Duncan.
