2 of the 4 is probable if he signs with the Spurs.
Accepting the minimum and losing the temper you can forget about immediately.
Personally, from an unbiased view, I like Sheed more than Camby for the Spurs. Camby is the better help defender/shot blocker but that's about it. Sheed's arguably one of the top 5 1 on 1 post defenders in basketball and is a bigger body inside.
But his offense is the bigger difference. When his head is in the right place and he realizes that his baseline turnaround is unguardable, his back to the basket game is great. He can also space the floor hear and there, only problem is if Pop gives him the green line from 3 land too much it'll backfire.
Priority number one IMO.
Why not?
it..I'd do it..
we need Ian to produce though..he needs to be the young guy to help out the aging Duncan and Wallace..
If he'll play a role off the bench for 2mil a year, fine.
Is that likely? Not really.
We need to get younger, but I'd take him as a Bonner replacement under the conditions stated above.
What? Why would you want him on the bench?
Why would you sign him for the bench?
The spurs don't have a younger big thats better than him that should get the majority of the minutes, nor is one available.
honestly if we get rasheed and he plays anything to close to anything from his glory days then we are a beast to deal with next year.
I wouldn't want him off the bench, I'd want him starting, but only playing about 20-25 MPG..that's why we need a guy like Ian and maybe another young role player for energy off the bench to give Duncan and Wallace a rest..
Okay, start him then, although he's 35 and wearing down, not to mention tech and foul prone, so maybe 24mins a game off the bench would suit him better than 30 as a starter.
No way he comes here to play for no money though - some fool will sign him for 10mil/2yrs, and given the 2010 plan I don't see the FO offering him more than one year (unless they forget 2010 and try to grab someone this year, which might be the way to go).
I think it'll come down to the Spurs, Cavs, and Celtics..
I think the time for getting younger has passed. Now is the time to go for broke, future be damned, in trying to squeeze one more le out of this core next season. Tim and Manu aren't aging like fine wines though, and they don't have time to wait for someone who is not ready to go from day 1.
Exactly. Not to mention if the Spurs can get him for the MLE, that means they won't have to give up Hill to get a big.
Then they can trade for a team looking for a pure salary dump to fill the SF need.
go for the vetarans minimum sheed and i promise i will get your jersey even if your in a spurs uniform for one season
No way he goes for the vets minimum. He's already got a ring, nothing left to prove.
MLE money and you're talking.
Sheed on the Spurs with TD would be motivated as so I say do it. He is one of the best low-post defenders in the game and can also post up on the block (something Bonner cant do) and shoot the 3 as well.
Truth.
You, my friend, are a smart man.

i cant believe so many STILL have not learned their lesson. still going after aging, past-their prime vets. sigh......
Too old! I'd rather look much younger, even for bench roles. Whilst the old veteran thing works sometimes, I don't know if Wallace is necessarily as hungry as someone as Finley was when we signed him.
Sheed can also serve as a mentor for our younger big men.
he would be sick with TD up front. IIRC TD said sheed was the toughest defender hes had to face. however, at minimum sheed will command the full MLE.
