blair was great off the bench
adjusting starting
Seeing how Blair is playing this year makes me question his value to the spurs. The role Blair plays is that he is that energy undersized tough big that just hustles. Players like blair in the league are Jason Maxiell, Craig Smith, Glen Davis, and of course Bass, ect. . How does Blair level up with these guys.
Also it was rumored that Bass was available via trade at some time, would spurs fans trade Blair for Bass?

Yes, no-brainer, but Orlando isn't going to trade Bass..he's probably going to move into their starting lineup soon, they've been rumored to be making that move for a few weeks now..
Pretty close to the same player.
I'm now convinced you only watch the Toros.
I'd love Brandon Bass on the spurs, I'd trade Blair in a heartbeat for him.
Bigger, tougher, way better defender (can guard much bigger players, 7footers etc) better finisher around the rim, great midrange jumper. About the only thing Blair does better is rebound, and Bass really isn't far behind him in that category either. Get rid of both Blair and Bonner, put Bass in the 2nd unit with Splitter and the spurs would have the best frontcourt foursome in the league.
He eats chips, too.
Blair is hitting the rookie wall he should have hit last year. Pop even admitted he didn't coach the guy all last season. Now that he's in the starting lineup, he's having trouble adjusting. Imo Blair is still a better fit for the spurs than Brandon Bass is.
He does have the jumper, I'll give you that.
If he's that much better why would they want such a horribly inferior player like Blair in return?
Please explain.
Goodpoint. Blair's stock has dropped TonsHe does have the jumper, I'll give you that.

GLEN BIG BABY DAVIS, his good man when rondo goes straight to him 3-5 consecutive plays...
Maybe the drop off in talent isn't as significant as the salary the Magic would be saving if they were to acquire Blair.
Were you aware of that smart guy?
Yeah I'd take Brandon Bass, but I'll cheer on Blair if he's all we got.
Were you aware that the salaries don't match and the Orlando Magic and Spurs are way over the cap?

He has a better jumper but Bass is also making $4 million a year IIRC if thats of any consideration. He also has a questionable IQ and a low ceiling. If the Spurs are looking for another frontcourt addition imo they're better served with a bigger body like maybe Anderson Varejao but he makes even more money. The Lakers, Celtics, and Mavs' frontcourts seem like the giants of the league...
It might be a slight upgrade but it'd be more lateral than not when you also figure in likely first-year growing pains on the Spurs system and Blair's tenacity and potential.
What that other guy said...
I'm fully aware, without a doubt my ninja.
McDyess+Blair for Bass would work. Only if McDyess is bought out and brought back would I do such a thing.
If that's the case, then Magic would be saving significant salary next year and beyond.
Get a clue.
No, it wouldn't.
lol everyone is beating me to it.
Ah , throw Malik Allen in as well.
Badda Bing Badda Boom, you have your trade.
Don't act like you knew Mr. Toros.
You sure didn't
The Basshole is a badass. Has a very solid jumper but can dunk over s and a very likeable personality. I would take him back any day of the week
Says the guy who thinks Bass and Blair are the same player.
I bet you weren't aware that the Spurs were indeed VERY interested in Bass in the summer of 09'.
