Thank god that did not happen
Awful deal for the Spurs.
A lot of thread ting in this thread. Awesome.
hoopsworld is full of
awful deal. Plus doesn't andre miller's contract expire?
never mind. He has a 7.8 mill option which is non-guaranteed. He would be waived most likely by spurs to get under the cap it seems.
Apologies. I guess you missed the first time too.
andre miller is a good PG..
i still have sad face over blazers snatching batum right before us..
he's that slasher SF we could use that's not named Richard Jefferson
good news is that the spurs are aware that dumping jefferson is a high priority. bad news is that no one wants him.
I was thinking the same - Batum gives us the potential elite stopper on the wing we've been lacking, and Dre Miller still has a few years in his legs and would be a great Pop PG I think. Also, he could be resigned for 3 yrs at decent money.
And I don't think it's a bad time to ship TP - he might have a couple of elite seasons left, but he's a PG who relies on speed and has taken a battering... if a good deal is out there, you ship him.
If we could somehow ship RJ out at the same time, it'd be a steal!
I'm hoping the Spurs have a back up plan to get rid of Rj for teams not wanting to deal with draft picks, after the draft. There just using him right now so sometime can bite that he will work in the other teams system, and his salary would be worth it along Parkers, while Spurs get a draft pick, and a nice prospect or two.
The Spurs always manage to sabotage any trades. It will very surprising if the Spurs make any major trade.
Why did they bother resigning him then? Most here knew that before they signed him, why didn't the spurs fo know.
They needed room to sign Splitter?
Explain to me why this is such a bad trade? Batum is younger, better defender and has not hit his sealing in terms of potential. I like Tony Parker but after the last series where he got out played by Mike Conley, it's time to go. Just my two cents.
Because of Parker's talents and his championship pedigree, he should net more than what the Spurs are getting. Now if Portland were agreeable to a package of Greg Oden, Nic Batum and their pick #21, I would think that would be more in line.
Is that the same pedigree that got outplayed by a player with zero playoff experience. Batum is an excellent player with the potential of being a top defender which is what we need and he is 7 years younger! I wouldn't hold up a trade like this simply on getting Oden. Im more concerned of getting rid of Jefferson then adding any other players to the deal.
By outplayed you mean the guy that got 14ppg shooting 39% against Parker? In the series Parker had 19.7ppg/5.2apg shooting 46%. Yeah, clearly outplayed.
Batum is the excellent top defender (next Pippen according to some delusional fans) that regressed in every single % statistic e became a backup SF after the arrival of Gerald Wallace in Portland ?
Sorry this trade is awful. It only makes sense if we get rid of Jefferson. Otherwise, this trade does not make any sense for us.
Andre Miller is ing 43 years old
wake up. Parker made Memphis PG scrubs look like near allstars
Tbh, I'd trade Parker for Nic+Greg without swapping picks or something like that.
Hill, Neal, Blair, Splitter, Oden (and to some degree Batum) with Manu+Tim to teach them is a great way to rebuild.
but yeah, we still had to get rid of JR![]()
Greg oden?????
dude won't even be healthy till mid 2012
rightttttttt, the same way TD and Mcdyess made Randolph and Gasol look like Hakeem Olajuwon and D-Rob ?
![]()
Randolph and Gasol are top 15 bigmen in the game.
Conley and Vazquez are and will be scrubs next year and the next and the next
