Yahoo: Spurs' talks for Andrei Kirilenko end without deal

[cd98]

What does my age have to do with anything, seriously? I've going to Spur games since they were the Chaps. What about you?
Yes, I know that has happened before specifically Berry, but that has been the exception, not the rule.

If it helps resolve the dispute, at any point, I think the Spurs will trade any minor player to get a deal done that improves the team. De Colo may be on the summer league roster at one moment, and traded the next. I don't think there is any league bar on such action and I'm certain De Colo would be as good as gone if the Spurs can work out a deal for Kirilenko and it required De Colo to be traded.

Pulling a guy off a plane is rare, but continuing to play guys that are on the trade block isn't. Every team does that.

I think it was Tayshaun Prince who was about to walk onto the courts for warmups before being told he was being traded lol

Remember the video of the fan who found out while he was at the game?

Man, I would like Kirilenko here as much if not more than any of the rest of you, but I have to agree that it is rare to pull a player who is currently playing, at least it is in the Pop regime and the only time I can remember was Berry. I mean we are talking Spurs here under Pop, not other teams.

You know, MN isnt needed to get this deal done. If everything we hear is true, then SAS is perfectly comfortable with letting some guys go.
What's amazing is that when you trade for a pick, the value placed on a pick varies. It's not like trading a player for a player.

So whats to stop SAS from trading the same players involved in the proposed deal away to another team for a low low pick, or any pick for that matter, assuming the trade partner is up for it. Then boom, there's your cap space to perform an outright signing.

I'm guessing there isnt a team out there willing to trade their pick for (again a guess) bonner, mills, and colo.

Summer League doesn't start til Friday. And maybe the Spurs want to pull De Colo stateside so he can sign his transfer papers to a new team. Just saying, just playing in the Summer League wouldn't exempt anyone from being traded or even cut from the team.

All this could have been avoided by simply getting rid of Matt Bonner before we signed anyone and told Manu this is who we're after you'll just take a little less. Now I fully expect the Spurs to reward Bonner in a loyalty deal next summer. He made 13 over 4 years so we might see a 2 year 13 Million dollar deal.

Spurs brass loves Matty Bonner guys, it's pretty obvious they really value the depth he brings to the roster and his ability to stretch the floor. If Diaw would shoot the ball more and not be so passive, Bonner would be much more expendable in the Spurs' eyes imo

That was classic

There's nothing happening with Kirilenko and the Nets, according to a source.

No need to be a prick. The guy isn't a noob or anything, so no need to run him through the grinder.

[K-State Spur]

It worked well for them last year with Kmart.

Ridnour is a 6'2 PG, Martin is a 6'7 wing - don't see your point

It's even been rumored he is eventually going to the FO, thus I doubt they get rid of him even though most of us wish they would.

Thanks, but it's ok, I don't suffer from any sort of inferiority complex or anything, and I know BS and joking around when I read it, so no offense was taken.
But thanks again for coming to my defense. It's nice to remember there some decent civil posters on this site. Lol
I call it as I see it, usually. And besides, what goes around, comes around. (See Ice)
