2006 Thread: Spurs Pass on Corey Maggette

[timvp]

FWIW, I still can't believe the Spurs passed on the deal. I thought perhaps this scenario wasn't legit but recently Mike Dunleavy talked about how the Clippers tried repeatedly to trade for Beno including one trade that would have also brought over Barry.

I guess it worked out because the Spurs went on to win a championship but damn that was a no-brainer trade the Spurs turned down.

Once upon a time Stephen Jackson didn't want to play a role or defend. This is why coaches are paid the big bucks.

When else could you get a guy who a couple seasons ago averaged 22 points, went to the line as much as David Robinson in his prime and averaged more rebounds than anyone on this team outside of Tim Duncan? He did all that as a shooting guard.

And he's still just 27 years old and only has a couple years left on his contract.

I agree... i JUST DONT UNDERSTAND OTHER PEOPLE LOGIC TO KEEP BARRY BENO OVER MAGETTE. keep 36 years old player and we dont need 27 years old player who average 22 points,good rebounder and can go to the line and make em... I think Barry averages way more points than his and much younger as well (sarcasm)

SPURS SHOULD SIGN AARP MEMBERSHIP, I HEARD BENEFITS ARE PREETY GOOD UP THERE IN CASE THEY RUN OUT STAMINA IN PLAYOFFS

Spurs doomsday...First Scola,Splitter...then Magette, who's next?

Step back from the ledge - as Mr. BottomTooth pointed out, this is from 2 years ago.

Worst passed up on trade in Spurs history next to the passed up trade for Charles Barkley in 92.

[ShoogarBear]

Read what you quote ~!

Just don't quote what you read.

[Ocotillo]

Funny the article is from 2006 and it refers to the Spurs roster as aging.

The more things change, the more they stay the same.

Hopefully, this year proves to be a youth movement with the draftees, Ian and maybe Maggette.

[IcemanCometh]

Admittedly we did win the championship

[ShoogarBear]

Did we win the championship?

Bold talk for a one eyed bald man.

[Biggems]

we passed up on a trade for Barkley in 92? details please....

i remember us passing on Moses Malone and picking up the Whopper instead.....nevermind Moses and Ice could have done some nice things for us in the 80s.....
