Poor Jeff McDonald. Do you think they ever tell that sucker the truth?
How would you go about doing this full rebuilding process? Do you have a fire sale now or do you start by trading Parker/RJ and then Manu next year?
Thats great and all but if the Spurs aren't actively shopping Parker then that doesnt' mean they're not fielding calls. What it does mean, however, is that if they're not actively looking for a trade the price on Parker is going to be quite high.
Will Perdue...duh!
Of course they are saying that. Have you ever heard a team come out and say "we are actively shopping player x"?
Yes.
McDonald?
That guy is not even worth a retweet.
Are you guys ing stupid? (Rhetorical - I know the answer) McDonald posted a QUOTE.
Pretty much. This is the organization that keeps everything close to their vests and deny everything.
RC did say though that they're going to try and get better by trades earlier though.
“We’re not shopping anyone,” Buford said, via text message. “We’ve received calls on a lot of our guys and we’ve answered the phone.”
And you believe what they say. How cute.
Oh so you listen to RC when you want but not when he says things you disagree with.
All I know is that a Parker trade sure as is a possibility but its sure as not going to be for the 5th pick in this draft.
That earlier quote wasn't exactly during the middle of the activity.

Deny everything.
Deny everything except when you talk about trading people?
Manny, I wasn't disagreeing w what you said but I could care less about what they tell McDonald. Also
Take this with a grain of salt. R.C. would never deliberately show his hand, anyway. There's too much smoke surrounding this situation for there not to have been some initial conversations with various teams.
Tony Parker is worth a lot more than a 5th or 7th pick in the draft. He's a freakin allstar quality player and former finals MVP. I would expect a similar player in return or 1st or 2nd pick in the draft for TP.
When is the last time Pop/R.C has said, " We are shopping player X around ."
The last time I remember them admitting to such a thing to the media was about 17 years ago. Before Rodman was traded to the Bulls.
Since then, Spurs have never let their cards show til the deals actually happened.
Only time will tell.
It's funny how to turn this on me yet you're the one who says "so much for that". Everyone knows there's something going on. The Spurs aren't going to come out and say it though. You know how this organization works.Deny everything except when you talk about trading people?
lol I wanna see Timmy's face when the FO tells him they just traded TP for a 5th pick in a ty draft and some fillers.
Pop and RC have been ting on Timmy's twilight years for the last 4 years, not sure why anyone would be surprised by them trading the only one of the Big 3 in their prime for garbage.
You do everything this summer:
- Trade Parker for expiring/cap space/prospects/picks.
- Trade Ginobili for expiring/cap space/prospects/picks.
- Trade Bonner for expiring contract.
- Fire Pop and go after a young coach.
- Let Duncan retire or chase a last ring with a contender.
- If there is an amnesty rule, use it on RJ. Otherwise keep RJ instead of using assets to dump him.
I don't disagree that other teams are calling the Spurs asking what they want for Tony Parker. That happens ALL the time. I just don't see anything to indicate its anything more than that and there is nothing to indicate the Spurs are willing to trade their most tradeable asset for a mediocre draft pick.
