Plus the question I posed in this thread had to do with Blair's contract with respect to the Spurs, not imaginary 2k12 trades.
"picks or assets"My take is for thinking it'd be stupid to dump Blair for nothing, but your -tastic take about how players need to be flat out released and not even traded to get something back aren't?You're in' delusional. Just like your stupid ass takes about how Parker is done because he had a few bad games, then oh look, like I said he would, he's back into form already. Your takes are liquid .
I told you to at least go play a video game and play around as being GM, because maybe then you will at least get some sort of idea as to how throwing away talented players who can be traded for picks or assets in return is a stupid idea. Obviously just telling you that it's stupid isn't good enough for you since you're a low information basketball fan.
"talented player"
So do tell us what do you get on 2k12 for Blair... Lebron?
Whoops? I was right all along? do you just enjoy being wrong, about quite literally, everything?
Goddamn your takes are and you're a got.

Don't lie , you weren't talking about when he was a rook. You were talking about last season. And Blair's stats are up across the board (besides PPG anf FG%), not down like your stupid ass claims."picks or assets"

If you're talking about stats from 4 years ago, damn near everyone's stats are down. Duncan's, Ginobili's, Parker's, Jackson's, Diaw's. So should we release all these "clowns"? Your logic is hilariously bad.
logic by poster and pretends like it's a great point by emphasizing it with a bunch of
Keep the posts coming though, got.
Now you're going to tell me what *I* am talking about
Go back to 2k12, got. That's where your opinion is respected
You should be admitting that's what you meant, otherwise your logic applies to Duncan, Parker, and Ginobili too. Dump those "scrubs" too since their stats are down from 4 years ago?Now you're going to tell me what *I* am talking about

This isn't rocket science. Blair is going to be a free agent this summer, the Spurs seemingly have no interest in handing him a contract, he's not a fan favorite/sell tickets, and his production has bottomed out since he was drafted (and he was drafted already in the 2nd round), and he already had a couple of meltdowns. Spurs will likely see him walk away at the end of the season anyways. Only a complete re thinks this situation is comparable to Duncan, Parker or Gino AT ALL.
My question had to do with his contract being fully guaranteed for this season or not. If it was not, then the Spurs could ship his ass out, and sign a cheaper and new project they can work with in the long term. That's not happening with Blair.
But apparently his contract is fully guaranteed, so the point is moot.
Post count smack...I wouild tell you to go back to somewhere too, but judging by your 58,000+ posts, you live on your computer.
with Blair's bootytastic GF, i get the feeling he's probably lived above his means, just a guess...I wish him the best but can't imagine too many teams will come a knocking.
^ because a team wouldn't want a player who put up 30/20 in an nba game .....
Looks funny to me, reading an article that uses the words "string of poor performances" when he has only been there 3 games. Makes me wonder where the writer got his information. First 2 games, he did not see a lot of court time, but in game 3, he was on for 24 min scored 10 pts on 5 of 7 shooting. Pulled down 4 boards and 1 assist. The 24 min were more than the previous 2 games combined. I wonder if the writer just wrote this down or if something really happened.
You keep Blair but if you can trade him you do it.
You're right, it isn't rocket science. You don't outright release a player that you can trade for picks. Even a 2nd round pick is better than nothing, stupid . Talk about a dumbfan knee jerk reaction.More takes

And actually yes, if your logic for why you don't like Blair is that "his stats have dropped from 3-4 years ago", then oh look, applying your same logic (which truly is ) to every Spur who's played in the NBA for more than a few years: Duncan, Parker, Ginobili, Jackson, Diaw, Bonner, Splitter, even Danny Green and Pat Mills, also fall into the same category of having lower statistics from years ago.
So unless you're admitting you're a flip flopping got who doesn't use the same logic except when it suits his agenda, your horrendous reasoning for wanting Blair gone, and apply it to the rest of the team. . .then by the same logic you think the whole team needs to be replaced besides Neal, and players who haven't played enough to be able to fall into that category (1st and 2nd year players). Which leaves you with about 5 players. Neal, Leonard, De Colo, Anderson, and Joseph. 3 of which have been in reserve most of the year and/or been bouncing between the NBA and the D League.
If that isn't what you meant, then you either A: Have to admit your reasoning about Blair (his stats) are flawed and wrong, plus that you have a take. Or B: Don't, and prove you're an inconsistent, flip flopping, ignorant got who changes his criteria for who's good and bad based on whatever suits your current stupid ass agenda against whatever player you're witch hunting against at the time. Or C: Realize quietly to yourself that it's actually A and B, yet deny that it's either outwardly (with no good explanation, just more of the same fest you usually display) to save face.
Take your pick. I know it'll be C though.
So that's what you think the Spurs can get for Blair?
Blair was already a 2nd round pick because no team wanted to take a flyer at him, and frankly, while his knees more or less held out, his game did not.
Spursfan overrating talent is nothing new though. People thought we could get anything from scrubs like RMJ or Bogans, and obviously the Spurs were happy to let them walk away when nobody was biting.
We'll see what happens with Blair when the season ends. I suspect the Spurs are simply gonna let him walk, making this entire conversation moot.
But you go ahead and trade him for a 2nd round pick in 2k12
Blair is already better than most second rounders turn out, so yes, he's easily worth a second round pick. Just how many players do you think turn out good every year? All 60?So that's what you think the Spurs can get for Blair?

Spurfan talking Spur player who isn't beasting and demanding he be traded is nothing new either. Just knee-jerk reactionism and unrealistic expectations. I didn't think we can get for Bogans either, so you can stop straw man arguing I never said.
Not re-signing Blair after the season and outright releasing him mid-season are two different things too. So if they don't re-sign Blair, it doesn't validate your take at all. Your take was for the Spurs to release Blair now, not let him go at the end of the season. Now you're back peddling and revising your take to be more reasonable. Tsk tsk.
The do you keep talking about 2k12 for? That's like the 4th time. Do you really lack creativity that much that you have to keep repeating the same dumb ? I already replied to that the first time you said it. I'll paste it for you since you apparently have a bad memory.
I told you to at least go play a video game and play around as being GM, because maybe then you will at least get some sort of idea as to how throwing away talented players who can be traded for picks or assets in return is a stupid idea.

:popcorn
here we go
says who, you?more overrating...
So the Spurs, who always end up with talent at the bottom of the 2nd round (and that they routinely end up cutting them), will let a player who "is already better than most second rounders" just walk away at the end of the season, and that's OK... this is why you get called out on your takes all the time.
And my reasoning is sound. Blair is a lost project. *IF* the Spurs could've cut ties now (which was my question) and sign another "project/toros guy" for cheaper, they could both save money and start working on another project guy. It makes complete sense unless you're re ed or Kidd K... obviously, since the Spurs can't cut ties now without an economic penalty, he'll complete his current contract in San Antonio.
brah, you sound upset, tbhThe do you keep talking about 2k12 for? That's like the 4th time.
sup Stalin
A second round pick at 60th in the draft is as good as not having a second round pick.
This is why you're dumb as . You can't have your cake and eat it too. You just argued that they should release Blair right now, so you cannot post points advocating how dumb it'd be to let Blair go at the end of the season. You're just arguing against yourself. -_- Yet another liquid take by you. And yes, using Blair for the entire season is better than cutting him and still paying his salary while not getting any use. It's really sad you're actually arguing that.says who, you?

Your reasoning to begin with also doesn't make sense, since you fail to take into account that Blair-caliber talents don't just grow on trees. They aren't out their ripe for the picking. All those guys are already signed. And if they aren't, they either cost more than Blair, are worse than Blair, much older than Blair, or are in the locker room. This is why your take completely sucks.
So for all your "ifs", none of which can happen in reality, you sat here posting over and over defending your points. . .when they were baseless to begin with. Repeated takes.. Cutting Blair is stupid, as I said to begin with. Costs money to do so, can't get a better replacement for same salary, and even if you could, you're still paying Blair's salary. . .so at a realistic best case scenerio, you get a guy similar to Blair's production just to have someone besides Blair for. . .whatever reason. . .AND you pay twice as much.
tiest take I've ever seen.
And yes, using Blair for the entire season is better than cutting him and still paying his salary while not getting any use. It's really sad you're actually arguing that.
got can't read either. Color me unsurprised
"Blair is already better than most second rounders turn out."
Elnono, wtf are you on about?says who, you?
Blair won't get a contract from the Spurs when his deal is done, that's what I'm on about. Disagree?
Apparently, posters with low intelligence such as yourself have simple comments go right over their head easily.
got can't read either. Color me unsurprised
Your point is because your fantasy is that the Spurs can cut Blair and not have to pay him. Then you're talking about replacing him with someone who's supposedly better. . .yet cheaper. And of course, this also wouldn't count against the luxury tax due to pixie dust magic.
It isn't overrating. There aren't a bunch of DeJuan Blairs sitting at home hoping to get a call for a ty deal.
Also, I don't see what the point of your bet is since that isn't what you said to begin with. Nor did I ever say the Spurs wouldn't let him walk at the end of the season. You wanted Blair released now. Now you're talking about Spurs not re-signing him at the end of the season. Different entirely. Or are you do dumb that you think using someone until their contract is up then not re-signing is the same as cutting him midseason?
Why do you keep flip flopping on everything got?
Probably, but Blair's head and shoulders above the average second rounder. In fact, most of our second round players are heads and shoulders above the average second rounder (Patty, De Colo, Ginobili etc).
