    What it is is accurate. What's absurd is the idea that the Spurs have to be two deep with All-Stars at every position.

    Or, suck the barrel and pull the trigger already.
    Ok, then explain why it's "accurate" () especially when TD was basically gassed from the 2nd Half of Game 6 on because of this alleged depth at the 5 that contributed greatly when it mattered the most? Or, why don't you take your homer glasses off and think for once?

    Pop created that lack of depth by shortening the rotation too much.

    Last week I predicted Friday of this week and it is beginning to look like I am right about that, unfortunately.

    So Splitter isn't a top ten player of all time. Good talk.

    Yeah, productive talk with a guy who only talks in extremes. Really smart.

    Well, now I read on Hoopshype that according to Odens' agent, Mike Conley Sr., he will not make up his mind until this coming weekend, that it is between Miami and five other teams and that the team that offers him the most money is not necessarily the team he chooses, and although Miami can only offer the vet minimum, that also will not determine who he will or will not choose, Miami is not a lock.

    Just a word to the wise, it is really really in bad taste to wish injury on anyone regardless of whether you are a homer or not. It just isn't a very cool classy thing to do especially for a Spurs fan. We leave that for the Mav, Laker, or Heat trolls.
    It's a free country, but still ..........
    You didn't leave rape to us. How about ing teammates wives? Oh... and the cucking? We'll leave that one for you.

    That's because no team has made a formal offer to him yet. He's still waiting to hear from teams.

    The article saying that Oden will make his choice only this weekend:
    http://miamiherald.typepad.com/sport...o-fallout.html

    Center Greg Oden probably won’t decide among the Heat and five other teams until this weekend, agent Mike Conley Sr. said Tuesday, adding that formal offers haven’t been made yet. He said the Heat has seen “all it needs to see” from a medical standpoint and that Oden won’t necessarily take the highest offer. But asked if a Heat offer at the $1 million minimum would be good enough, Conley said he was not sure.
    I agree it's ridiculous for him to take all that time. For someone claiming wanting a quiet comeback without pressures, he is surely not acting like that by keeping the spotlights on him for weeks while making a choice.

    Probably that is what is holding up Blair's decision too.

    What are the chances Spurs make him a formal offer?

    Yeah I'm tired of Greg Oden that I don't even care if he doesn't choose the Spurs. LeBron and Dwight didn't take this long. It still won't surprise me if we read a tweet this weekend that he will decide next weekend.

    Yes and no. It's probably a tough decision to make because every team can sell him on positive things and it makes it hard to decide what is the better situation. Also, it's hard to know if he is the one driving the attention or the bored media. If I was offered a high paying job in five different states, it might be hard to choose. I'd like to take my time if I could, especially when the decision could impact the rest of my career. And people are reporting on this because it's news when news is slow.

    I'm fine with him taking his time. He's a long shot to make it back to being a contributing player on a regular basis, so he needs to pick carefully. I would think length of contract would be as important as total money. If, IF he can stay healthy it might take two seasons to be back to playing decently. Objectively (alright I'm a little biased) but of the teams rumored to be interested-has the best record of not overplaying their players or rushing them back from injury and also developing their games. If the Spurs are interested, and offer him a reasonable guarantee, they seem like the perfect fit if he wishes to try and make it. Bright lights big city etc. it's Miami.

    Although I wish he would make his decision now I can understand how hard it might be. Not trying to be biased but I still see the Spurs the best choice for him. Spurs have the best medical staff and a Organisation that chooses a player's health over making money and milking them for Basketball games. He also has the opportunity to slowly work himself back as a back up for Timmy, and possibly becoming more once TD retires. He would also be a fool to pass up an opportunity to work with Timmy and learn from one of the best Bigmen that has ever been in the NBA.

    Miami would be a terrible decision for him IMO, Spoo is noted to overplay his players minutes.

    I have a feeling the Spurs are giving him the hard sell. He'd get to learn from Timmy, it's low risk and potentially high reward, and if he turns out to be decent, he could become one of the focal points of the team.

    You were the one comparing him to a top ten player of all time. I just said the Spurs weren't hurting at that position. And yes, I am.

    My guess is he's seein' a whole boatload of minimum offers, and is hoping for more, hence the constantly slipping "deadline".
