Official Trade Deadline Speculation Thread

[ace3g]

Nocioni and Sergio Rodriguez

like others have said I would love this trade, I even mentioned Nocioni in a trade thread a while back because he was getting limited minutes the entire season.


Nocioni would give the Spurs 2 true SF, maybe that would keep Pop away from small ball since he could balance out the PG, SG, SF rotations

[dbestpro]

Pop loves small ball so much he is going to trade Ian and Theo for a PG and SF.

how would the sactown announcer know about a spurs trade?

[TD 21]

The more likely scenario is that Pop is committed to moving Hill into the starting SG spot so he will need a back up PG.

Maybe, Dorrell Wright and Carlos Arroyo?

If there is a trade in the offing, my guess is this is who the Spurs will acquire. My guess is Mason is going the other way. Here's why...

- Salaries match

- Wright is known to be available; could be the Spurs latest attempt at finding someone to guard combo forwards/face-up four's

- Heat coveted Mason in summer of '08

- Finley's back, Spurs have a glut at SG, seem committed to playing Hill more at SG and lack depth at PG

- Spurs would get a true SF and PG, two things they lack on their bench

- Heat would get a player to play in their top 8, as well as a shooter/scorer to take some of the burden off Wade

So whats the deal kori? Is this going down or is it pure speculation?

[Kori Ellis]

See, I have gone back and forth on this, and have come to the conclusion that I would like this. But almost no one agrees. He would not be my first choice, but I would like all things considered.

What is your take on this "rumor" and have you heard anything that you are willing to talk about?

I think the Spurs like Jamison very much, but I was just making something up right now.

No, I haven't heard anything but I haven't asked around. I'll ask around in the morning and see if anyone knows anything. Maybe timvp can email some peeps tonight.

Tyrus Thomas + Pargo

Or maybe a combo off of GS?

I would take that for sure.

[Libri]

Pop wants offense. It would be for somebody who can score.

[HarlemHeat37]

I would be very happy with Tyrus Thomas too..

[DPG21920]

For a 3rd PG, you could do worse than Pargo. At least you know he will have the gumption to take a big shot if you need it. It is nice to have a 3rd pg who can randomly go off.

I personally think TT would be a great fit. Especially if that jump shot he showed in the playoffs was not a lie.

[MaNu4Tres]

Spurs need more players that have the ability to get to the paint and convert efficiently. Especially with Manu and Tony not being nearly as effective as they have been in the past. Spurs have too many players who get the majority of their points from long distance. Which validates the live by the 3 die by the 3 mantra if you will.

A 3rd pg should be last on the Spurs list in terms of a need via trade.

[Spursmania]

Do the Spurs really have the gumption to do another trade right now? I'm dubious.

[alchemist]

how would the sactown announcer know about a spurs trade?

it involves the Kings?

[FvckMavs]

it involves the Kings?

Ime and Beno

[L.I.T]

If we're talking pipe dreams that could occur: TP + The Trade Twins = Bosh + Jack

Tyrus Thomas + Pargo

Or maybe a combo off of GS?

I would be very happy with Tyrus Thomas too..

It's not a coincidence that Chicago shot up the standings like a rocket when they benched Tyrus. There's a reason he's available: He's a ing deer. He can run fast and jump, but just really has no clue how to play basketball.

Oh he's definitely low IQ..I'm pretty sure he would clash with Pop too..

He gives us what we need though..he's an elite athlete that finishes strong and blocks shot..I would assume that he would make a lot of progress with Duncan and McDyess mentoring him though..

BTW, he averaged over 20 MPG for the Bulls run, so I don't know where you got that from..

Ime and Beno

I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

[TIMMYD!]

Battier?

[toki9]

Maybe they're trading Mahinmi so that he could get some playing time this season?

[Aggie Hoopsfan]

A 3rd pg should be last on the Spurs list in terms of a need via trade.

If the rumor is true my guess is the backup point is a throw-in to make salaries match.

[JR3]

I'm giving up on this tonight. If a trade is going down, I don't think it will be announced until tomorrow.

Ime and Beno

Duncan saying o to them tonight.
