Rasheed Wallace on the Spurs?

[lefty]

Well, Rasheed will make our team younger

[Ditty]

and better +1

[Capt Bringdown]

So Dial says not trade but "it's something to file away for free agency."

In other words it's a pipe dream for next year that will likely never happen.

[Budkin]

God that would be awesome... a front line of TD and Sheed? Are you kidding me?

[Spursfan092120]

Stop dreaming Joe is not going to trade him for crap. Yes he would be great next to Tim but you have nothing to trade lets move on.

Let's see...Rasheed will be a free agent next year. He's already said he wants to play for SA...do you trade him and get something out of it, or let him get away and get nothing?

[venitian navigator]

If space under the cap is all they want, we may well use the "horry trick" for them...plus a 2010 first draqft choice.
Problem is we should pay the kux tax for this year....can we survive to it ?

[AA2120]

shheeeeeeddddd!

Reggie Miller on the deal that would put the Spurs over the top

Reggie Miller joined the show to analyze all the trade talk rumbling through the NBA. Here are some of his takes:

-- Miller says if the Spurs could obtain Rasheed Wallace, they'd be the favorites to win the West (even if the Lakers get Andrew Bynum back).

[EricB]

I would agree with that 100% as well.

Rasheed Wallace would guard Pau Gasol VERY well and Duncan would stop Bynum.

Plus Wallace is pretty clutch and would be fantastic on the perimiter with Duncan.

Like Kurt Thomas last year, I wish the Spurs could get Wallace.

I doubt it happens though....

[DUNCANownsKOBE2]

Agreed w/ everyone hear, if the big 3 becomes the big 4 SA wins it all.

Duncan, Sheed, Manu, Parker >>> Kobe, Bynum, Gasol, Odom

[crc21209]

Ok realistically how could the Spurs get Wallace? I dont wanna give up ANY of the Big 3, Mason, Hill, Bowen, or Thomas. Would any combo involving Udoka, Oberto, Vaughn, Finley, Mahinmi, Splitter rights, picks, cash, and the Horry scenario work?

Yes. Believe.

[Red Hawk #21]

Damn, if you guys could get wallace...

[crc21209]

God I hope this happens, can you imagine a line-up of:

PG- TP/Hill
SG- Manu/Mason
SF- Bowen, Finley (unless traded)
PF and C- TD/Sheed/Thomas/Bonner

[EricB]

Damn, if you guys could get wallace...

Yeah getting Wallace would make this probobly the best Spurs team they've ever had.

[Rip-Hamilton32]

lol detroit wouldn't give sheed up for some bench warmers

[EricB]

lol detroit wouldn't give sheed up for some bench warmers

Who do you think they are gonna get?

Whos the team willing to throw a superstar at them for Wallace?

[Rip-Hamilton32]

with his expiring contract and his skill we could get a decent player in return

say you replaced Finley with Horry on this trade to make the numbers work out.....Haha just a dream.

[DPG21920]

Keep hoping. No team is going to give up a young player with skill for an old player with skill who is just a rental. No way Detroit trades Wallace. They will just let him expire and sign someone using the money next year.

I agree with Miller's statement. And giving that this trade could be the difference for us between a championship and a WC finals. I think the Spurs FO should throw everything they have on trying to make it work:

The Pistons want expiring contracts so Vaughn, Udoka and Finley (we tell the Pistons to let him go and sign him back) are assets, Horry could come in handy too. You know how much can we sign him for to make the salaries match?

-Then give Detroit things like: Splitter's rights, Mahinmi, a 1st round pick and maybe some cash compesation to make it more desirable for them.

I think Dumars will go for this what do you think?

I wouldn't say so. Riding into the playoffs with only 3 bigmen doesn't excite me.

You do realize that you can only have 15 players on the roster? That means the Pistons would have to spend a lot of money buying guys out or cut about 5 guys from the current team.

maybe not but they could get more then that offer from crc
