    I think they will too. Right now, it may seem far fetched because Varejao is playing out of his mind and Splitter is struggling mightily, but give this a few months. Law of averages will kick in, Varejao will have another injury scare and they'll realize that they need to sell high on him.

    .
    How is Splitter struggling mightily? he's had some great games lately, he's making his free throws. He seems to be jelling with the offense. He almost registered a triple double last night. Please explain the "struggling mightily" part.

    That post was before the majority of those "great games".

    It's hard to deny that both Diaw and Splitter have been struggling especially with rebounding. Yeah Diaw and Splitter will occasionally have a great game against a scrub team but the rub is that they lack consistency. If they can't consistently play well in the regular season what makes you think they will come playoff time? When Splitter and Diaw aren't having the occasional great game they really stink up the court with their passiveness, softness, and inability to rebound the damn ball.

    The only way I would even be open to him coming to the SPURS is that he shaves that ridiculous hair off...I can't stand seeing that nappy floating around in the paint..Kinda hard to watch him play because of it...Plus 4 players for him?... that..
    I'm kinda feelin what this guy is sayin. Lol.

    When did AV turn into Dwight Howard? The guy is putting up ridiculous numbers. This does not bode well for Tiago's price tag. By all accounts, Tiago is every bit if not more talented than AV and look what AV is doing being a focal point essentially (outside of Kyrie). Tiago is going to be pretty pricey this off season it looks like.

    spurs should definitely trade leonard for AV if it was a possibility
    its about winning now
    within 2 years this team will be headed straight for the lottery and probably wont ever get a duncan/robinson esque player to lead them again
    LOL no way........

    Youre kiddin right? Leonard is a future cornerstone. Varejao is an elite role player at best. .
    Their second year and their rookie are already better than Kawhi Leonard. The only thing that KL should bring to the Cavs is defense. I wonder if the Cavs wants Kawhi...

    Consitancy is exactly what you get from both Diaw and Tiago, If you look at Splitters numbers his numbers are up in rebounding, blocks and assists for this year. As for Diaw some of the intangibles include his chemistry with the team, his basketball I.Q. and his versatility. Rebounding is not all that he does. As for passiveness and softness, do we need a guy thats aggressive ala Metta, Thomas Robinson? No thanks. Last I saw the Spurs have done well playing "soft", we had the king of soft in David Robinson and we seem to have done ok.

    Forget about AV, we need to get Gortat from the Suns, he didnt sign the extension he got offered. Put a nice packcage together, something like Jackson, Blair, Bonner, and Picks, I would think something like that can get it done, the Suns would need to throw another player for the salary to be right, but I think we can get it done. Gortat plays alot better than AV, and he has been underated, he used to be over shadow by Howard at Orlando, and thats the reason alot of people dont know how good he really is. I believe the FO needs to give us the fans something to believe this team is going to do something, cause right now, we know we not winning the le, now, we gonna have a very good season, like we always do, but we not winning no championship....

    The Suns have Gortat under a very reasonable contract until the end of the 2013-14 season. There is really no reason for them to consider trading him for the type of package that you suggest.

    You right Mel, but if his not staying and the have the chance to trade him and to save some cap room with Jackson and Blair, then they can move on, is not like they have a chance winning a le while his there.

    They have plenty of time to sign him to an extension or a new contract. His refusal to take their extension now doesn't mean that he is committed to leaving Phoenix. They also have plenty of cap room going forward, so there is no need for them to do a salary dump. Finally, if they do reach a decision to place Gortat on the market, they'll be able to get substantially more than the sort of package you suggest from the Spurs.
