A 3rd team would have to be involved as Nocioni is a BYC player.
Here's an article from ESPN, saying the Nets are looking to trade for him. I don't know that the Spurs have anything that would interest the Bulls, but if all they want to do is slash payroll, we could help out there I guess.
Nets Target Nocioni
The Nets' payroll restrictions are a bit more flexible than agents were led to believe when the free-agent market opened.
For example, the Nets believe they still remain in the running for the likes of Eduardo Najera and Keyon Dooling -- two of the very few players they agree deserve three-year commitments -- but not so much for guys they think are worth only two (Mickael Pietrus, etc.).
They are pursuing that as well, with Andres Nocioni being one of their primary targets. The veteran forward is available, GMs throughout the league confirm, for one reason: Chicago needs to slash payroll in order to give Luol Deng the $55-60 million to re-sign. -- The Star-Ledger

any other year i would LOVE to have nocioni. if any player fits perfectly into the Spurs system it would be him.
unfortunately he is not what we need right now
Nocioni would still fit in perfect with the Spurs.
you'd like him more than Gist?
Nocioni is easily the toughest player currently in the NBA.
and yes he would fit perfectly. He would improve our defense AND offense. I think he would be great next 2 Duncan. Even more so than Scola would have.
I think he is better player for Spurs than even Maggette.
WE DONT need someone like nocioni.
we need to get more athletic right now
Uh, he is athletic....
What Nocioni are you talking about?
Andres Nocioni?
yes. Nocioni is a freakin stud.
Nocioni would be the perfect player for the Spurs. Not a shot in of it happening though.
wtf Of course.
Did you really just ask if a proven 15 and 5 guy in the NBA is better than a second round draft pick?
WHAT
THE
?
question was for T Park... never meant to generate such a reaction form the rest of y'all...![]()
We dont need another undersized unathletic spot up shooting forward!
nocioni is athletic. but he isnt a "create your own shot" kinda player. he is a defensive big guy who can do athletic things.
we need an athletic player who can score buckets.
right now if you had the choice who would you choose?
Nocioni or Maggette?
Nocioni always play big in playoffs and big games.
Unathletic spot up shooter?
Did you get that take from your agent handbook?
You've clearly never seen him play.
Nocioni CAN create his own shot.
Wtf are you smoking?
God, I wish your computer would blow up already.
Can Spurs get Magette and Nocioni?
They should try do this then.
