ESPN Radio Rumor: Rasheed for fab and finley (and others)

[td4mvp21]

Dr. House, are you scared now, or simply terrified?

Iloved your lame comment about Sheed only hoisting threes these days. You forgot the fact that he makes threes, not just shoots them. And in the playoffs he would shut down Gasol to the point of tears. Sheed defends Tim Duncan as well as anybody in this league ever has. And this just in...Gasol is no Tim Duncan. Nor is Bynum, if you can ever get his "loose" knees to function correctly. Is that what the doctors called them, "loose"?

With Sheed, you LA punks wouldn't get within 15 points of us in any game, anywhere.

We'll wave to you from the Riverwalk in June, Dr. House.

Uhhh this is just a RUMOR from an unproven source?

[EricB]

I like sheed as much as anyone but for people to buy into this as much as they have is bit ridiculous. Hey I hope I'm wrong.

I was first to say that I didn't totally buy into it, but the people reporting aren't liars and I don't see them drumming up ratings for no reason.

[EricB]

Tpark is a , but he is just the messenger. He is not saying it is 100%, just saying what he heard.

I'm not a ...

[gameFACE]

13.7ppg and 7.6rpg at 34 going on 35 is not a superstar. Pretty damn nice player - YES!

[Chomag]

Or we could be getting the usual treatment... Teams and players allways using the Spurs to spark intrest from other teams for more money or better players.

I still have my fingers crossed on this though. I have not been a Sheed fan threw all the years, but I do know his talents, and he has everything that the Spurs need.

Rumor but the source is apparently very proven.

i just tried out the three team trade for sheed and heres what i got except replace KT for horry.

Why do people have to be such buzz kills on here? The bash threads they do not like, talk all the time and don't do anything generally positive. If you don't like a thread, do not post in it.

But why dog people who enjoy talking about it, even if it is not 100%?

Thank you...exactly what I was thinking. A few people got on me for telling them to stand by their team and they said they had every right to freak out..they were fanatics, but when there's something to be fanatical about, they try to be buzzkills..crazy. I still love you guys though.

Because it's so easy to be a tough guy behind a computer.

The Spurs have to throw in other players and some incentives. Fab and Fin aren't nearly enough.

It'd probably take something like Fab, Fin, Bowen, Horry and picks/Splitter/Mahinmi/cash for Wallace.

Yeah, Rasheed is making $13.68 million this season. Spurs would have to send out 85% - $100,000 of that to get him, so we're looking at $11.52 million.

Oberto = $3.5 M
Finley = $2.5 M

Rob was signed to about $3.1M last year, so the Spurs could sign him to about $3.25M or so max (105% of last year's deal).

So far that brings the total the Spurs would have to make up to $2.27 million. That means one of these cases:

1) trade Bowen
2) trade Bonner
3) trade Vaughn + one of Udoka, Mahinmi, and Hill


I'd love to have Rasheed, but no way I'm moving Bowen or Hill, and Bonner won't be moved with the way he's shooting. Aside from the near-impossibility of this deal from the Spurs side, what is Detroit getting out of it? The only explanation is maybe Dumars would do it as a favor to Sheed for the years he gave them.

Also, would the Spurs be allowed to pay most of Rob's salary upfront? No way Detroit would want to pay the whole thing for less than half a season on the roster.

[Vinnie_Johnson]

Calm down.

Okay I just talked a friend who works for the Pistons and he said yes there is something happening. He could not give me all the people involved but did say that Duncan and Parker would be going to Detriot. He was pretty sure Kwame Brown and a few other players would be going back in the deal. Stay tuned this is going to be huge.

[SequSpur]

yeah right...

Bowen would just be waived and come back. No biggie...it would have to involve another big (Ian or Splitter), maybe a pick or two, or cash.

lol..dude..it wasn't us starting the whole deal. It was a radio station in Detroit....it's not like we're just making this up.

Spurs are going to need Bowen for this stretch run of the season.
