    We really have no chance to land a "name" big man now that RJ's contract ballast is gone.
    Dwight Howard is available. He loves SA and thinks LA is boring.

    For the money he's going to want I would rather have someone younger with more potential.

    Curse him cause he was made to change his entire game to support a shoot first point guard.
    curse him cause he made the spurs trade for him and also give him a new contract.
    yep its all rjs fault. I guess the numbers he put up with the nets and bucks for the last 8 seasons was a fluke.

    The main problem I have with RJ is that he thought moving down the totem pole to the fourth option meant sitting back and watching. When he had to do something, he seemed lost. Some players struggle with a truly supporting role, and you can't know that in advance. I really think he could score 18-20 points on a team that needs scoring from the wing. It's not his fault, it's not the front office's fault. It was just a bad fit from the start.

    ^ Spurs already have two C's in Tim and Tiago (two and a half if you count Blair). They need a true PF who can defend face-up bigs and the PnR.

    other than an attempt at Jason Thompson really so other chance at a quality big without moving Parker.

    "He's a jerk."

    So is Kobe. So is Bynum.... so is Garnet. So is Jason Terry. See the trend here?
    So you're saying all black guys are jerks?

    I like West. He's a good shooter and we've had a of a time stopping him in the past. I don't know his health, or how well he does on defense (can't be worse than Bonner, and his shooting would make up for a good deal of slack at the other end).

    I would go for that.

    West is not a good man-2-man defender, but the Hornets were a very good defensive team last year, so I guess West might do good within a team defense of the Spurs ... if we can develop something like that again

    With Jefferson being amnestied, you would have to send out half the roster to match his contract, replacing them with minimum salary d-leaguers, or break up the big 3.

    based on the latest trade rumors, supposedly the Hornets will have to get rid of West to make Laker trade work

    This guy might help the Spurs much more than Butler or Hill.

    The Spurs need a big.

    You putt for dough and this guy can make those 4 footers.

    They have to renounce West to make the trade. They'll have Scola and Odom.

    And renouncing West ends any chance of sign and trade for West, which means the Spurs now have zero chance of getting West.

    adding a black hole on the spurs definitely will not help.

    Black hole? You mean a 6-9 banger with a deadly jumper form 20ft who can post and rebound wont help?
    He'd be a good replacement for Antonio McDyess... He's a tough, rugged power forward with the same height and size as McDyess, has the same type of range and accuracy on his jumper but he's much younger and better... I'd take him on this team.

    Isn't West unrestricted? They can pay him more than anyone else, but there's nothing to renounce. I could be wrong, but I think the only restricted FA the Hornets have is Bellinelli.

    Free agents generate cap holds until they are signed or renounced. The amount of those cap holds are determined by the CBA according to the player's status. For a team to use cap space they may have to renounce their rights to some or all of those players.

    See each team page on Shamsports. Below the salary information, you will see the cap holds for each team:
