I wont mind if there will be no trade made this season. If that happens, I want Pop to play RJ and Mason as much minutes as possible (38 mins for RJ) to save TP and Manu for a playoff push.
cosign
this would involve getting rid of popovich though.

spurs could cut mason
he would get plenty of time then
Here come da lottery! Here come da lottery!
Thats one game, they were hot and maybe Denver was off? Martin was out as well, he gave us that last game. One 19 point win does not make me think this team is FINE or needs no tweaks. They got beat down by LA without Kobe or Bynum, that alone is alarming to me.
BANG, I agree. NO trade and letting them play would be fine by me! I would accept no trade then! Just to see what they can do.
We need a trade to happen. We need players that our unselfish on our team unlike Mason which is asking to be traded to a team for more playing time. I understand that Mason is in a contract year and he needs to bump up his stats for this coming offseason but if we have a player on our team with no passion and desire to give all that he has this season, then it's a no brainer. We need a trade to happen.
Losing 8 out of the last 14 is not the better option .... sadly i feel that the Spurs have gone cold on any deals and are going to waste yet another year of Timmy's career...
there won't be a trade. stop dreaming. even if there is a trade, it's not gonna be for a big star. stop being delusional.
Gasol for Kwame happens once in a generation.
I'm firmly in this camp as well. Maybe Mason and a pick to Memphis for Young, but nothing big, I don't want the Spurs to overreact Scola style.
Losing 8 of 14 has nothing to do with talent, and everything to do with lineup choices and effort. Many of the guys that fans want to trade are going to be essential to any potential turn-around this team can pull off, and the Spurs have the personnel already on the team to do anything they want. Midseason trades are for teams like Dallas, and frankly, those haven't worked very well for them. The last successful midseason trade the Spurs had was for Nazr Mohammed.
How many have we made overall?
Nazr = Success
KT = "Fail" (kind of. KT was useful, but the wheels came of the ride through injury to Manu - not his fault)...
So that's what, a 50% success rate in recent times? I wouldn't be that dismissive, given our present odds of success look closer to 0%...
Trade Pop!
No, you miss my point. The successful trades that the Spurs make (and I'd include KT, thank you for reminding me) are for one small piece. Suggesting that the Spurs need a trade because they've got an extended sub .500 streak going seems to indicate they require far more than one small adjustment, and those types of trades don't work.
How about trading POPOVICH!
Isn't he a free agent ?
We really need two "trade Pop" posts? Really? What the , guys?
Ahh, this thread is just buying a covered call and hedging our feelings incase if we dont get a trade. Deep down, we all know we need a big trade if we can to compete or its gonna be tough.
Um, again, big trades don't typically help teams because teams that need big trades aren't championship contenders. And winning championships is tough. Always.
When a team isn't playing hard and isn't playing the players they have at their appropriate positions, and is failing to play younger players while sacrificing wins to rest veterans, it's puzzling how a trade is going to fix those things.
if it is what it is regarding the present roster, but the guys take it up a notch with the defensive intensity, i'd be content with that as a fan.
as for freeing ian mahinimi (sp?), man he looked awful at the end of that denver game. like 3 or 4 turnovers in a row including a couple of travels...anyhow, i'd like to see Ratliff more, but watching ian look like a 7ft tall deer in headlights answered some questions for me regarding his lack of pt.
It's odd. I couldn't agree more with the first paragraph, and you couldn't be more wrong about the second.
hey i've been wrong plenty of times...i'd love to see ian breakout.
maybe but open your eyes. Look at the options on the table, they involve Spurs losing a lot to gain just merely above average players. Do you really think those moves will be the diference maker for a championsihp?
What realistic big trade could Spurs do? stop dreaming, there is none.
Tim Duncan has just said it, now you must face it and get over it. "there will be no trade for Spurs"
I guess Spurs office also realized there really was no good trade option. Sadly I don't think this team can go far in the playoffs. But we'll see....
No trade plus Bonner and Bogans starting now?
Only one of those two things is why the Spurs are so bad this year.No trade plus Bonner and Bogans starting now?
