Spurs trade Goran Dragic to Suns!

[Spurtacus]

So the Spurs have like 4 selections in the 2nd round of the 09 draft.

Gotta move up into the first.

[Marcus Bryant]

Even though the Jailblazers are gone, pot smoking is still alive and well in the Portland area, apparently.

Most 2nd rounders don't make the roster. But the Spurs pick up another 2nd rounder next year, and get cash. It's a great deal.

57 year old Oden will probably have a coronary next season anyways.

[GSH]

Anyone wanna rip the FO now?

no. They made a few bucks cash, and got another second-rounder, so hopefully they can make a few bucks next year too. Put enough of these together, and who cares what the roster looks like?

And that Malik Hairston pickup was a real coup. I'm sure the Spurs wanted him all along, but they found a way to squeeze money out of the Suns in the process. My hat's off to them.

[T Park]

No Matter who the Spurs get, people have to .


Perspective please people, perspective.

I know you're joking, but I don't wish injuries on anybody. And I'm glad the Trailblazers have changed their structure. But to criticize this trade is just stupid. Traded a 2nd rounder (who may never come over, at a position that we now have depth and youth) for a 2nd rounder (at a position of need), a future 2nd rounder, and cash. You make that deal everyday of the week and twice on Sundays.

Hairston is an under-achiever who will probably not even make the Spurs roster. It was a dumb deal by the Spurs' FO.

Guys with his athletic ability who over-achieve don't last until the middle of the second round.

You can get guys who were productive, but might not have the athletic ability to stick in the league or NBA quality athletes who didn't produce up to their abilities in school.

[T Park]

Yeah, at the worst Hairston develops on the Toros, Hill is the backup point, and the other guy is with the Toros as well.


Solid draft. Will get better after we see how good Hill is.

TRADE THE PARKER STOPPER TO THE SUNS?

WTF!?!?



JK bro

Bro the Spurs could trade Tim Duncan to the Suns and you'd find a way to rationalize it.

[Marcus Bryant]

Bro the Spurs could trade Tim Duncan to the Suns and you'd find a way to rationalize it.

True.

But I will rationalize this. In two years Dragic joining the Suns won't matter.

[tlongII]

So they get two picks and cash. BFD.

They got one pick and Hairston and cash if I understand the deal correctly. Dragic can actually play unlike most 2nd rounders. Dumb deal.

[coopdogg3]

They got one pick and Hairston and cash if I understand the deal correctly. Dragic can actually play unlike most 2nd rounders. Dumb deal.

I'm sure Tau will love his game. Smart deal.

[50 cent]

True.

But I will rationalize this. In two years Dragic joining the Suns won't matter.

Yeah, because our window will be cemented shut by then and Tony Parker will be playing with Kobe in LA.

[Marcus Bryant]

They got one pick and Hairston and cash if I understand the deal correctly. Dragic can actually play unlike most 2nd rounders. Dumb deal.

When will Dragic be available? Dumb indeed.

[tlongII]

What depth do you have a PG? I don't see it.

[tlongII]

When will Dragic be available? Dumb indeed.

It might be a few years, but so what? At least he can play.

[coopdogg3]

What depth do you have a PG? I don't see it.

Tony Parker - Still young and prime for the Spurs.
George Hill - back-up PG and 1st round draft choice.
JV - veteran, steady hand. Will be fine as 3rd string PG.

Glad to be of service.

[Marcus Bryant]

It might be a few years, but so what? At least he can play.

Maybe. Winning a championship isn't about how many players you can stash abroad.

[coopdogg3]

It might be a few years, but so what? At least he can play.

Again, I'm sure the fans of Tau will love his game for the next 10 years.

[Mister Sinister]

Yeah, because our window will be cemented shut by then and Tony Parker will be playing with Kobe in LA.

Tony Parker, George Hill

[Marcus Bryant]

Spurs finally get something out of a Tau player.

[T Park]

Bro the Spurs could trade Tim Duncan to the Suns and you'd find a way to rationalize it.

Dragic is never coming.

If Splitter is never coming with the same contract as this guy, hes not coming either.

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

Between this and the Shaq trade, I really think there is something to my notion that Kerr is really still working for us.

[Spurtacus]

Is this confirmed from a second source? Or just one report?

[K-State Spur]

Dragic can actually play...

...for Tau.
