Nesterovic would be great to have back for matchups with big centers. I'd love to have him back for a reasonable price.
The Spurs need a defensive stopper heavyweight big man to replace Thomas in defending the Shaq's and Yao's of the world. I would rather have Bowen than Finley.

Rasho for the Yao Ming, Shaq, and Bogut and others games would be great.
Get a guy like McDeyss for Gasol and others, and then matchup on the way out.
If Rasho was willing to go with the LLE, then he would be a good bench guy to have.
I'm not expecting anything from the spurs. I'm more interested in what the other teams will do because of what the spurs did..
There's still no reason to get your hope too high about draft day. If anything good happens, that's just gravy. The next true turning point will be on July 1 when we see who the Spurs are going to target.
I get the feeling that there's gonna be a lot of shuffling going on that night.
Whether the spurs are involved really doesn't matter, but what would my draft night is Bonner being in a trade.. Thats it.
Someone must want this 6'10 piece of .
Good god people chill out.Someone must want this 6'10 piece of
The guy had a bad playoffs and isn't a starting center.
Doesn't make him a piece of .
Christ get a hold of yourselves.

I have to wonder if part of this is the old CIA smokescreen - I'd love it if they were just messing with Kevin Pritchard's head a little. If word gets out that SA is looking to move into the 1st round you know that little prick will move heaven and earth to try and move up ahead of the Spurs...
I think having someone to backup Duncan and give him rest should be a top priority. The Spurs need Duncan healthy to have any chance in the playoffs. The best way to find rest for him is having someone with a similar skill set to come off the bench, a "Duncan lite." That player could be Gooden. He can find his shot and provide some scoring with the 2nd unit. The other piece would be the C, who needs to be more of a defensive specialist who can guard the true C's like Yao. That player could be Rasho. Then your final 2:00 lineup is Duncan, Gooden, Jefferson, Ginobili and Parker. If Mahinmi develops that is gravy, and maybe Splitter comes over which would be even better.
I am not in favor of going after Sheed. He is washed up and not the same player he was. I think Gooden is the best available option and he has a little experience with the Spurs system. Gooden and Rasho. Hope Mahinmi and/or Gist can contribute.
Now what? Anticipate opening up these Xmas day gifts the FO is going to bestow upon us.
Nesterovic for cheap is an awesome idea and I'd like to see Bonner on for spot minutes!
Rasho is soft. Don't revisit past failures. He was not even playing much in his last year with the spurs in the playoffs.
I think the Spurs should get Pachulia, he seems pretty good. Not very skilled offensively, but I'm sure he'll get some points down in the paint playing alongside T-Dunc. The Spurs will benefit most from his hustle,defense and rebounding. Plus he pretty much made me a believer in him that series he had with the Celtics a few years prior.
Go after gortat.
This lineup would be perfect. I hope the Spurs can put this team togetherStarters
1 Parker
2 Ginobili
3 Jefferson
4 Duncan
5 McDyess
Bench
1 Hill
2 Mason
2/3 Bowen
3/4 Gist
4 Bonner
4/5 Mahinmi
5 Nesterovic
Pop needs to call up Finley and tell him that if he exercises his option, he is going to send him to some hole he would never imagine going to or want to goto for that matter.
Pop wouldn't. He has a man crush for Finley, although Richard Jefferson is now on the scene. Now with RJ around, starting your best players may not be a good thing, not many shots to go around.
PG: Parker
SG: Mason
SF: Bowen (if he returns)
PF: Duncan
C: Mahinmi (see who we get in the draft or FA, should be a decent suprise)
6th and 7th man: Manu Ginobili (SG) and Richard Jefferson (SF)? (Off the bench comes a poor man's version of Jordan and Pippen, be very afraid)
PG: George Hill
PF/C : Matt Bonner
SG/SF: Michael Finley (sit on the bench and ride the coatails, and chat with Pop to ease his boredom)
I like it. I think it's a must to keep Hill + Mason. We would be loaded on backcourt, probably best and deepest backcourt int he NBA.
We still need a couple of big pieces in the front.
I don't like that big rotation, it's too old.
What makes you think McDyess would leave Detroit? He is not moving his family, he said that when he was traded to Denver. Spurs even called him and offered him a deal and McDyess said no.
Is there a scenario where the Heat would accept finley and bonner and maybe draft picks or something to that effect for Haslam?
The fact that Detroit has really fallen by the wayside. Maybe McDyess will consider one final season outside of Detroit to get a championship. Who knows.
I would love for the Spurs to land Gortat, but that's going to be difficult.
if he really wants a ring, which he already proved, he could.
The RJ trade just proved the Spurs know there window for vying as legitimate contenders is closing, and they are ready to deal. I can't wait until the draft and July 1st. I'm also really surprised that Holt made this trade for RJ. This is going to be a much more exciting summer than I thought.
I would love to get McDyess and/or Sheed. But I think McDyess would be a better and younger fit than Sheed.
The T Pups are more likely to trade one of these late first round picks after acquiring the 5'th pick today. The spurs should be on the phone right now tring to get one of these picks.
We just need to sign Rasho for the right price and call the summer done
The spurs need an enforcer on the frontline, a banger, mix it up, do the dirty work, active body, in your face type of tough guy and thats not Rasho. Also an athletic shot blocker. Guys who play with passion and intensity, thats not Rasho.
Its not going to be easy getting them but these are the type of players the spurs need on the frontline not soft players like Rasho.
