Spanoulis!!!!

To me, it is because I don't have that evaluation at all on Pargo.

Bruno > Pop

Got it

[mrspurs]

this aint good news for the spurs FO, but i learned many years ago, it isnt mine until i see it in my hand and its in my name. with that being said, i never had pargo on our roster, i never even once imagined him in a spurs uniform. thou i knew he would be a good player on our team....we know our roster as of right now the last guy we signed was tolliver...i dont miss pargo cos i never saw him play for us....i aint happy, i aint sad, cos nothing really happened to the spurs roster......pargo was never a spur and those who let themselves think he was can now cheer for russia. heres the good news for the spurs, NO is the team that really loses out. by pargo not signing for NO it makes the spurs a better team.......thanks for the heads up........ mrtoothman

It will now be interesting to see if Spurs go after another backup PG via FA or trade. It's also puzzling that Spurs haven't sign George Hill while almost all first round picks have signed a contract.

Naw, I can't see how this is good news. If the Spurs are actively looking for a new backup point guard, that means they don't trust Hill will be ready.

I'd be nice if this meant Hill will be force fed minutes but I don't see that happening. It'll just mean more Jacque Vaughn. The force feeding of Darius Washington last year lasted all of about one and a half games. I realize the Spurs have more invested in Hill than they had in Washington but if Pop is already off the bandwagon (as it appears), Vaughn better start preparing for a lot of minutes next year.

i sure hope your wrong, cos of we go with vaughn as tonys backup again.....well nvm

[mrspurs]

Fred Jones
Gordan Giricek
Kirk Snyder
Juan Dixon
Devean George
Devin Brown
Michael Finley

Take your pick.

this is easy............devin brown

[hater]

Giricek is still available??

he would be my pick out of those scrubs

[MoSpur]

Where's Latrell Sprewell?

[mrspurs]

i think it's time to start a FO needs to change it's culture thread.. i know Pop doesn;t promise minutes etc and they never get their pants down for a player... but it's time to show more love to people that could become important for us to go deep enough to make it to the Finals... with another approach i think we could have gotten Splitter, Maggette now Pargo on this case... we need to show FA more love...

excellent point....you know larry hughes was kicked off the cavs team, cos lebron said he didnt have enough heart to make a run at a ring. once you learn about larrys life, it will become easy to see, that larry see's life as being more important then any nba championship...and it never meant larry was late for practice, didnt give 100 percent, he just didnt think lebron was right all the time, and imo larry is right....for some nba players its more about life and the enjoyment of being able to play a game and have fun, then a ring......id be curious why pargo chose to play outside the nba. it would be difficult to understand if the answer was just money....at least larry stayed in the nba and is still making millions....something tells me pargo doesnt want to be yelled at, and wants tobe considered the teams best player, but thats a guess

[Mr. Body]

Wow. Lolz.

Sign Robertas Javtokas for back-up PG NOW.

[1Parker1]

More so than anything, Spurs desperately needed a 4th scoring option after the Big 3. Mason averaging 8 ppg last year could have just been an anomaly. Pargo would have been perfect; Not only do the Spurs desperately need a backup PG (esp given they don't seem to high on Hill) and they need scoring and punch off the bench other than Ginobilli. Pargo could have done all this for them.

I can't understand why some Spurs fans are actually Happy about this? I mean, what other options are left out there that are better at this point?

[lefty]

So?

I don't see why everybody wanted this overrated piece of

[Streakyshooter08]

This is a really disappointing off-season. You go from nearly signing Splitter, Maggette and Pargo to Roger Mason and George Hill... urgh... That said, I don't blame the front office for that. The players just went where the most money is which is logical for them. The Spurs just don't have the money.

[xtremesteven33]

this really sucks.

i am officially kicked into "Worry Mode"

[mexicanjunior]

Yet another FA that would rather play anywhere other than San Antonio...tis a shame.

ur right. this really isnt the FO fault. it was a pretty shallow FA pool of guys who could come in reasonably on the spurs team. i like the Mason signing and i liked the Hill draft pick at first but now it seems as though the "Hill High" is coming down.

all of this really sucks cause Manu looks like hes going far in the olympics and will play wrecklesy if he has to, to win olympic gold.

i havent said this all summer guys but now im worried. im worried for our chances of even getting far in the playoffs this year. not unless they sign or trade for a player who we know can contribute right away.

If the Spurs are smart (and 4 championships later, I'm inclined to trust they are) they aren't looking at Pargo because of anything about Hill. Pargo is not really a PG, although he sometimes plays PG. He's a small SG. They are looking at him, I assume, because they need more ways to create offense, esp off the bench.

There are plenty of other options they could look at, but it is interesting and kind of sad for the NBA that this is yet another example of an American-born player choosing to leave the NBA for more money...

[jack sommerset]

What a pathetic pic. Not u hater, the pic....

[Trainwreck2100]

He signed a one year deal? I hope somebody told him that he has to work overseas for 2 years for it to be income tax free.

How are you not proving TimVP's point right now?

[nkdlunch]

Spanoulis!!!!

is there any possibility of signing this guy??

he is probably having best PG performance of the olympics so far...
