We basically give up on this season if we do that...I think the reason behind the RJ deal was to maximize these years, not throw them away...
I just read that the Rockets and Mcgrady are parting ways, and theyre even willing to take on non expiring contracts for a right trade...
what about sending them RJ, Bonner and Finley for Tmac, who says no?
i dont think Tmac helps at all, and im not even sure we play him, but at least he expires and we can get back to our 2010 plan with lots of money to sign a big FA...
the rockets get RJ who can help them now and next year...
right now, we know so far that RJ isnt a good fit on this team, and he probably fits best in houston's more up tempo style of play (at least this year)...
we finish this unsecsefull RJ experiment, replace him in the lineup with Mason, give Hairston more PT... i think we have the same chances of winning this year with or without RJ, besides getting rid of that contract...
i kno this isnt happening, but want to know what u guys think?

WTF close this ty thread
the spurs is a basketball organization, not a retirement facility
How do you explain Finley?
Call it a season, then.
Im all 4 giving the guy another shot.....Its wishfull thinking cause we dont have the money but i'd like to see him in the Silver & Black any day of the week.
Is Finley still on the roster..hehe This might be the longest ankle sprain recovery in in league is history... I know the guy is ancient but come on.. I've seen mummies come back to life faster than its taken this guy to come back from a mild ankle sprain..
Oh wait i got it were saving him for the playoff's.. right
he is an all-star this season after all
I'd do it if it means getting Chris Bosh next year..did you know McGrady has the biggest contract in the NBA this year..that's a lot of money to spend and we can easily replace rj's...10 points with TMAC's...6 points just manu is gotta step up!
If they thought they could have gotten Bosh, they wouldn't have made the RJ trade to begin with...
Thanks to Tmac, NBA role players will soon be on strike
you could say that, but as i mentioned, i dont feel that RJ is making or will make a difference in how far we go this season, so it doesnt really make a difference...
you keep your slight chances this season, and open cap space to be a player in the off-season, thats all!
Again, the last time we had a ton of cap space, we had Rasho Nesterovic to show for it...you have more faith in our ability to sign a big name free agent than I do, I guess.
if he's bought out, i say do it for whatever money the spurs can throw at him. that's a no brainer.
Houston says no.
They have Ariza and Battier under contract for next season at a combined 13.75M. The last thing Houston needs is another SF making 15.2M next year. If this was their best offer for TMac's giant expiring contract, they would just keep him and keep the payroll flexibility for themselves.
Okay then but obviously we would not be paying for Rasho this time, I think the front office showed there done being conservative and while go after a good player if they have the money...that was the plan anyway?
Luis Scola?
Brandon Haywood?
Marcus Camby?
David Lee?
Houston is not your RJ dump; enjoy your 16m/year non-expiring SF.
I would take one year of McGreedy for Jefferson's albatross of a contract.
I'd say TMac can provide as much as RJ as far as this season goes, and if it doesn't work out, sign somebody really good in summer 2010.
Not that this scenario has a snowballs chance anway...
T-Mac has proven to be legitimate threat in previous years. While he still has his moments, he's clearly out of shape and, considering his injury history, a gradual decline could be next.
The one thing that is certain about him is that he's proven to have been a cancer at every stop he's been. He quit on the Raptors, Magic and now the Rockets. At every stop he's been, his antics and behavior eventually grated on management and teammates. Stay away.

I don't care if Finley comes back at all.
Can we stop with the re ed RJ trade proposals? No team is going to be dumb enough to take on his bloated contract. We're stuck with him for the foreseeable future.
The only possibility I see there is Haywood. Camby likes LA, Scola is beloved in Houston as much as Gino is in SA, and as for Lee, there'd be a shot, but a ton of other, more attractive suitors from better locations.
Again, if they had any hope of signing a difference maker with cap space, I think they would have held off on trading for RJ...
