Jax wants out..

[HarlemHeat37]

Wow, he CALLED you?

???




as for the actual trade..I've said I'm against it in the past, and my opinion hasn't really changed..the only way I take Jackson is if he's willing to come off the bench in a Manu role, so we'll see how that would play out..that would allow Manu to start, and it would allow Pop to rest him throughout the season..

we would also be the deepest team in the NBA..

starting Jackson wouldn't work though IMO, so he would need to accept that role..

[ducks]

But to say Manu is the only way is just Ducks being a quack.

do you think
rj,mason,tp,duncan,hill, manu and jackson
would get enough touches
spurs would be overcrowed if they did not trade on of those players for him

[DPG21920]

Which is why a 3rd team needs to be involved to absorb a larger contract, or a team with a TPE like the Nuggets.

Nope. Spurs could just do Mason and Bonner + rights to someone. Or if you were dead set on Finley+Bonner, you could just throw in Marcus Williams.

Manu is one of those guys who is more valuable to the Spurs than the rest of the other teams who will probably treat him like just another expiring. No way the Spurs trade him.

[HarlemHeat37]

I also read NYC is an option for him.

Ya they've been mentioning it a lot here(I'm in NY)..I think he was just saying that because of Al Harrington though..he said he wanted to win another le, and he obviously must know he won't win in NY..

mason is clutcher then sj

Jackson would get all of Mason's touches. If he wants out and wants to be a part of a winner, he has to make sacrifices.

He did not say he wanted out of GS because he did not get enough touches.

This is what I would do but GSW would just counter with a " You take Maggette."

[Sotongball21]

If i am not wrong, Finley's + Mason's contracts are = to Jax's contract right?
If we trade Mason, we get Jax, who can run facilitate the offence and start in place of Mason. AND we will get Finley off our butts and thus able to sign a third string point guard to back up Hill if he bursts. See, its win win.

so where is mason going?

[DPG21920]

Playoffs Ducks. Playoffs.

so where is mason going?

He would be traded Ducks. Mason + Bonner for Jackson works.

why would gs want mason when they could have manu?

it works for you but not gs

[DPG21920]

why insurance incase manu is not healthy


right now manu's trade value is not all that either

It is still more upside+expiring contract than I can think of than another team would offer for a guy who comes out publicly that he wants to be traded.

GS is going to get low balled.

[ducks]

do you think anyone would want BOONER?

[phyzik]

If its any team in Texas, Its going to be Houston. I'd love him back on the Spurs but I have a feeling Pop wouldn't.

[ducks]

I mean why not just offer finley and booner

I would start Finley and have Manu and Jax off of the bench.

[ducks]

yeah because jax would love not starting....................

[Sotongball21]

why would gs want mason when they could have manu?

Because Manu is a better player than Mason? And I am sure Manu will take less money next year since this is his contract year (IIRC). AND Manu can come off the bench with Jefferson to score heaps off the other team's 2nd string players.

[ducks]

should not spurs just bring back scola to ...................
oh wait he has not told houston to off yet like sj did to gs
then spurs fans would want scola back

[ducks]

manu is not a better player when he is on bench playing on facebook

he might he did not care about money when he said you spurs I am playing even though spurs said no contract extension talk if you go play

or you could say he is not intersted in playing the rest of his days here

[DPG21920]

it works for you but not gs

I mean why not just offer finley and booner

Once again Ducks, when a player comes out and demands to be traded, he puts his team in a terrible position. Especially when he is older and has a long contract.

So, please answer the question. Name a team that would offer good talent for Jackson? At least as good as Manu. I want names and salaries that match please.

GS could use a guy like Bonner. He is a decent defender, runs the floor well and is an excellent 3 point shooter. He would be their poor mans Troy Murphy whom they liked.

You could offer Finley, but that would mean you would have to add a 3rd player if Bonner was the other piece. And as I said before, Mason is more attractive to GS because of talent and age than Finley. He is not Manu, but is a good coup for Jackson. Not to mention he is expiring.

So please do not avoid this. Answer the question to back up your claims.
