Spurs are in serious negotiations with #Suns to acquire Marcin Gortat

[Buddy Holly]

So you think because one grey has never heard of him, that others dont know basketball?

Thats about as dumb as assuming you know more basketball than others just because you have more posts count.

Don't be butt hurt grey. I wasn't generalizing. I'm sure there's more than one grey poster one this forum that is so casual a fan they can't even name 10 players on the Spurs now.

I'm not sure the spurs see splitter as part of their long term plan. Once Duncan retires, I don't think anyone of us want a long term contract worth 8-10 mil committed to splitter.

No I am butt hurt! That was a very insensitive thing to say. *folds arms*

If the dumb@ss didn't out his own lie, this was heading to 20 pages, tbh.

Thank god, I don't want Gortat.

[Sobe_Kucks]

Well... that was fun while it lasted. I guess now we understand why this trade didn't make a lot of sense for the Suns.

I don't even know what to think anymore.

[Leetonidas]

Surprised more people didn't their pants over that Gortat tweet...from two weeks ago

[emanueldavidginobili]

I like him, Gortat can play

Not according to the Suns fans. They are on him just as much as Spurs fans are on Tiago about being soft etc.

This is why I said he is another RJ. We'll all hate him in a year.

In other news, Spurs are reportedly interested in Derek Anderson and Rasho Nesterovic. Spurs front office believes both will provide the spurs with exactly what was missing during the finals. More to come.... UPDATE: Spurs have now cooled on Anderson and Nesterovic because they've turned attention to signing Negele Knight and Greg Ostertag. Keep following my twitter for more updates.

I didn't mean necessarily in game, but his at ude. He threw a lot of his teammates under the bus and basically ripped his entire team and I know a lot of Suns fans on RealGM criticized him for whining about players not giving it their all or caring about winning when he didn't seem to be either. I'm not going to say I follow Gortat super closely but he's going to want to be a main contributor on the team not just a cog in the machine. Personally I feel he is an upgrade offensively but is that what we really need? Spurs are already one of the best offensive teams in the league. Gortat has great athleticism and he is more physical than Tiago though. Personally I feel it's a wash, I think Splitter would excel in our system more than Gortat but who knows.

Although if the Spurs got Kirilenko and Gortat, tbh I'd be pretty content looking at our chances next year.

This.

Spot on. Splitter is soft, but so is this guy. Dont be fooled by the muscles. Its a wash.

it might be a wash end of the day, but instead of making a huge financial commitment now, having gortat for 1 year 7.7 million gives us flexibility in the future as well

[silverblk mystix]

lol gor-

might as well keep splitter and pay him.

The problem is the coach not the players.
