Trading during the Holt-ing Pattern would've taken us out of the Holt-ing Pattern.
Methinks you weren't on board with the cap clearing plan, either based on your propensity for creating trade scenarios to get out of the Holt-ing Pattern.

Ghost, I looked at different trade scenarios because this and its predecessors are Spurs fan discussion forums. Not Manic Depression Assistance forums.

Manny, I am dying for you to contribute something substantial to this Forum other than piggybacking your d1ckhead mentor, Marcus.
I don't understand why it is forbidden to be critical of the front office.

Methinks you are ed in the head, Ghost. Sure I discussed trade scenarios in which the Spurs sent out contracts ending this year for talent. I don't exactly understand why I should not have participated in those discussions.
Just give it a rest and go find another way to relieve your stress instead of your ing ragging over nothing.
I don't think there is anything wrong with criticizing the front office- but what are we criticizing them for right now?
The roster we had last season resulted in a championship and now we have the ability to sign any player we can. I don't see the problem. Sure, we may have been able to trade for other players- but who is to say those players would have resulted in a championship?
I don't think there is anything to complain about in relation to our current situation in general. If we have anything to complain about, its our inability to attract FAs- not the situation to sign anyone we want. Maybe we haven't had an "A" offseason- but we certainly haven't had an F-. Resigning Duncan and Jackson will adding Rasho is not a bad offseason.
Manny, is it difficult to type with your head in Cassius' lap?![]()

Not that I am on anyone's side in this debate, but that line was so funny that I almost spit milk on my monitor.
Yes Ghost, but we sleep in separate beds.![]()
Oh its not, but it just makes you look stupid when coming off a le when we have at least the 2nd best team in the leauge on paper.
As far as marcus goes, I disagree with him on a lot of things, but he at least brings logic to his arguements, can't say the same for your flip floping ass.

Cassius, contracts ending in 2003 was not one of your considerations, pal.
I'm really not complaining about anything, scott. I just can't stomach Spurs homers trying to spin this summer as a good offseason when it fell way short of most of our expectations. I figured we'd wind up with an Olowokandi. Nesterovic is pretty close. I can't say I am surprised we couldn't get a star. Just disappointed. I have too much pride in myself to mask that bitter feeling with a bunch of biased B.S. and Spurs spin.
I'd get over it a lot sooner if people like Cassius would leave me alone.
I will not change my mind. I want to move on.

Ghost, no harder than it must be for you with yours so far up your ass.Manny, is it difficult to type with your head in Cassius' lap?
?
I said the Spurs send out their contracts ending in 2003 to other teams in order to acquire talent.
Now that's a candidate for FSP Understatement of the Year.I'm really not complaining about anything
I'd get over it a lot sooner if people like Cassius would leave me alone.Here's a ing idea...stop using this forum to get you through your personal problems. Now you are shocked that someone actually responds to your lunatic rants when you post them. O poor Ghost.

Har-de-har-har, Manny.
Grab a napkin and wipe the spunk off your face, loser.
If you guys want me to stop "complaining", change the f'n topic.

I haven't complained about the front office's effort this summer, nor will I, but it amazes me that people here are spinning this summer as anything but saving cap space for max free agents.
Whatever makes you feel better, I suppose.
I fault the front office for putting all their eggs in one basket, but not for a lack of trying.

Again, Admiral, it was about giving themselves the flexibility to pursue a star and/or DRob replacement once DRob retired. This is not hard to understand nor is it "spinning." Sure the Spurs would have loved to be signing a star free agent (other than Duncan, of course) this summer.
Funny how Duncan decided to re-up with the Spurs after the Spurs made a decision to "get younger" as Duncan wanted them to. Some here seem to take Duncan's re-signing for granted (ie GW and GW Jr). Now all they are left with is "the Spurs didn't get a second star shoot me now."
Admiral your ing is on par with Ghost's. That is to be commended. It must be hard to do when you aren't an actual like GW.
WTF? Notice how the Spurs still have one of a team after the great failure that you are whining about all over this forum? God damn that is so awful how foolish they were to do this to us!I fault the front office for putting all their eggs in one basket,
And in another thread you fault the Spurs for not trying. Get your story straight, chump.
but not for a lack of trying.
All that flexibility ain't worth a d@mn.
I could see if I was all for the Holt-ing Pattern and it failed, but I criticized it all along.
I applaud the front office for trying to land a star this summer. I condemn them for thinking they actually could.

Damn you are really one messed up mofo.
Come on,Marcus. Do you really believe for a moment that the Spurs didn't have their sights set on a max free agent this summer?Again, Admiral, it was about giving themselves the flexibility to pursue a star and/or DRob replacement once DRob retired. This is not hard to understand nor is it "spinning." Sure the Spurs would have loved to be signing a star free agent (other than Duncan, of course) this summer. -Cassius Clay
I have not taken Tim's re-signing for granted. I'm also not surprised that we didn't sign a star this summer, because I was one of few who pointed out that it was risky at best. I have every confidence that we will be fine, superstar or not, but failing to get a superstar was not part of the Spurs' plan.Funny how Duncan decided to re-up with the Spurs after the Spurs made a decision to "get younger" as Duncan wanted them to. Some here seem to take Duncan's re-signing for granted (ie GW and GW Jr). Now all they are left with is "the Spurs didn't get a second star shoot me now." -Cassius Clay

Again, Admiral, sure they made a run at stars this summer but it's not like they took for granted that they would sign one.
The Spurs gave themselves the flexibility to address DRob's departure and/or add a star. Why exactly should they have been capped out when DRob retired? WHY?
If it meant being capped out with a star or two under contract, that would've been better than this.

Right. The Spurs should've been capped out with a 35 year old guard and no youth. DAMMIT WHY HAVE THE SPURS GIVEN US A 8 MAN ROTATION FULL OF YOUNG TALENT INCLUDING A 21 YEAR OLD 'RISING STAR' POINT GUARD? WHY THIS AGONY?
Payton's contract was up this summer. He seems good enough for the Lakers.
