I'd say he has the worst chance of being a Spur because Washington likes him at that cost, and won't move him for Blair.

So...spurs do S&T with Blair plus pay extra? Not sure he is an upgrade vs a Harrington or Butler who should be cheaper especially with his inconsistency and injury history.
he's a free agent and the spurs have shown no inclination to sign him.
Doubt it, they don't want to fill cap space for him....remember, he wasn't tendered so he is free as a bird.
, they just drafted the rook and they were extremely high on the prospect of getting him. I doubt very seriously if the Bullets are willing to part with him. His presence has created the glut of SFs on their roster. I would be willing to bet that the other SF options (Ariza, Singleton or Vessly) could be had.
Ariza would be my first preference, but Singleton would also be a good get. Vessly has been a supreme disappointment thus far and seems to be suffering from extremely low confidence. He's in definite need of a change of scenery and a coaching upgrade.
Otto porter is about easy to get as Beal or Wall at this point. Local product, etc.
Sounds like he would fit right in with our mid-2000s Spurs teams, where Rasho, Tim, Malik Rose, etc. were all God awful at free throws, tbh.![]()
I imagine it's between Ariza and Vessly. I wouldn't touch Vessly. I would take Ariza in a heartbeat. Guy played well as a Laker and Rocket. Performed well in the playoffs. I think having him will allow us to keep Leonard's minutes down during the session. Plus his contract is expiring which is better than giving AK47 a 3 or 4 year deal. We will need that money to lock up Leonard long term.
I've always wanted Ariza and thought he would fit here perfectly.
He would be the best option.
It's best I stay out of this thread until something is official.
Does anyone even know how much roster space the wiz have?
Exactly my thoughts. I'm not in the mood to hear all these great-sounding scenarios only to end up watching nothing get done. I'll get excited when I hear something more concrete.
blair, bonner, and playblair for ariza please.
It also looks like the wiz are trying to keep open as much cap space as possible for next summer cause most of there players contracts expire after this season. Bonner contract would help this as well and Blair would be a cheap experimental contract for them
whoa 4 hours 4 pages ...that fast ?
how about Wall ! Is he untouchable ?
He's a point guard who can really score.. close to 17 pts a game ave. nice alternate for TP + he's young.
Just wonder if he's still asking for max. Then, it's pffft
The issue of a trade like Blair and Bonner for Ariza is that it would leave Spurs very thin inside. I'm not sure that Pendergraph and Baynes are enough to complement Splitter, Duncan and Diaw.
are there any good bigs that could sign for the vet min?
Very true, but if they then added Oden?
Spurstalk dreaming again. Blair isn't worth Ariza and the Wizzards don't want Bonner.
, Everyone knew that Bennet was not worth the #1 pick and how did that turn out..Its the NBA, nothing is impossible.
Kenyon Martin is also a possibility.
Oh really? Care to explain the pieces we were giving up for AK47 then?![]()
There are still god vet bigmen like Brand, Jamison, K Mart or Maxiell but they should get more than the min. For the min, the best Spurs could get are player like Wilcox but they aren't really upgrades over Pendergraph. There is a Greg Oden gamble as said in the post just after yours. Spurs could also get Vesely in addition of Ariza to compensate Bonner's departure.
