Find a way to get a rebounder/shotblocker on the team. Bring Bowen back. Be smart filling the rest of the roster.
That's about it. The draft doesn't really factor much into the equation.
I believe that this is only the beginning....
Pick up a valuable player in the draft, possibly Danny Green if available, or trade the picks for a legit Center.
They Still need to figure out what they are going to do with IME, Gooden and whether or not Finley Decides to take on the option!
Another possibly Trade!
If not, free agency is pretty thin for them, but they can still land a Good big man and some role players, pending on what they do with the contracts!
Whats the next best move?

Am I mistaken or are Udoka, Vaughan and Gooden no longer under contract?
Sign Robert Horry, PJ Brown and Dikembe Mutombo to get the team's average age back above 35.
If we can get McDyess for the minimum it'd be fantastic
I'd be fine with Finley coming back. He'll be farther back on the depth chart. Never hurts to have another 3pt shooter.
Bring Bowen back. If Bucks buyout Kurt Thomas bring him back since Mahinmi is still unproven. I expect Gist to be on the team now.
Ime is gone. Perhaps we can move Bonner. We really need another big that can rebound/shot block to compliment Timmy.
dam, forgot about McDyess! I think thats a legit move right there, especially since Detriot is declining!
I think the next best move is a play for Camby on July 1st when the salaries for the 09'-2010' year kick in. Camby will make 7.6 million, therefore a Mason and Bonner trade for Camby could work. With the addition of Richard Jefferson, I believe this could make Mason expendable IF Bruce comes back. If Bruce does come back and we do make a trade for Camby. We could then : A. Resign Oberto for the minimum and even Kurt Thomas if he's bought out. B. We could use the MLE to go after Rasheed Wallace C. We could use part of the MLE to bring in Dante Jones or even Rodney Carney or Matt Barnes and use the other part of the MLE for a Big to back up Camby.
I just believe there won't be any room to resign Mason for the 5-6 million that he's going to be looking for in the summer of 2010. Especially since Manu will be a free agent and will be asking for at least 7 million. So you might as well get rid of him now and get something in return that could help us. And Camby would help us in a BIG way. Another reason why it wouldn't really effect us is if Bowen and Finley come back next year. Being that Finley and Mason basically bring the same things to the table except for the fact that Mason can bring the ball up the court.
I think that's the first phone call the Spurs should make on July 1.
Dice have ring ?
Don't think so. I believe he ended up in Detroit in 04-05.
Sorry... there is no way that McDyess takes a contract for the minimum. Besides that, I think the Spurs need a big that will be able to man the post for the whole season. McDyess is a power forward and showed signs of breaking down at the end of the season when given too much playing time. I would love the Spurs to have him, but seems a bit unrealistic now.
Jefferson was an excellent addition. Now to see if any other moves are pending via the draft or FA.
I really hope that Ian turns out to be something even if it's just a poor man's KThomas.
The second one should be asking Dice to play for the MLE after he laughs and hangs up the first time. Of course, Finley has to retire for that to have any chance of happening.
Shaq?
If someone out there is really willing to offer McDyess full MLE then they can have him.The second one should be asking Dice to play for the MLE after he laughs and hangs up the first time. Of course, Finley has to retire for that to have any chance of happening.
I'm thinking the spurs already have a big lined up. No way they would put themselfs in this cap situation without a plan to address the hole in the frontcourt.
Didn't McDyess turn down near MLE money to re-sign with the Pistons after the AI trade? Few players might jump at a chance for a ring but McDyess is one of those who might.The second one should be asking Dice to play for the MLE after he laughs and hangs up the first time. Of course, Finley has to retire for that to have any chance of happening.
Right now, Spurs have only Bonner and Mahinmi as big to pair with Duncan.
Bonner has been a disaster against Mavs. Mahinmi has played 23 minutes in NBA.
Next step is to get some good bigmen via trade and/or FA.
I hope so but I don't mind bring Fabrico back as 4th or 5th big
Exactly. The MLE should go towards finding a starting caliber big. Then hopefully they can find a small trade to bring in a solid first off the bench kind of big. Mahinmi and Bonner should be nothing more than the 4th and 5th bigs.
Finley not picking his option would help a lot.
mle (better just part of it): Gooden - Mc Dyess - Wallace
lle (or the remaining part of the MLE) : Nesterovic
Then sign our young players (Hairston, Williams, Gist plus our second choices this year, hopefully one of them a point guard) and call it a season...
Trade for Camby!!! after July 1st. Mason and Bonner for Camby then use the MLE to address the 2 and or back up 5/4
