Yes.
if its non guaranteed then i think we just cut him. Don't want to give the Cavs anything worthwhile though. Bad feeling it will bite us on the ass down the road...
Baynes is better than Heywood!?! I think not.
his nickname is Brenda.
Yes Spurs want to give up Brazilian Mangina for a guy called Brenda.
I agree I don't think it's a good idea to give Cavs anything.
Kylia, Deladeladeladova, Lebron, Love and Splitter (with JR and Iman waiting on the sidelines) is a pretty bad ass team IMO
somebody please explain this to me. Would this involve players ?what players would it involve?
haywood wont play one minute for the spurs... his contract is non-guaranteed
possibly diaw/mills
The Cav's chatter seems to think that any trade with the Spurs should at a minimum include Mills. The playoffs showed that the Cav's bench has a lot of trouble creating any consistent offense. That being the case, I can understand why they would want Mills. Giving Mills to the Cav's would be like playing Russian Roulette with 5 bullets come the playoff finals next year.
he used to hit Manu in the face a lot.
Heywood is a cool black name but it needs to be the first name.
That would be a horrible trade to get rid of those two guys, more like Splitter?You know for sure if they met in the finals he would come off that bench and light his old team up, just the compe or he is
Should be Splitter and Reggie Williams plus a pick.
Maybe a swap of picks (Spurs send a 2nd, get a lottery protected 1st).
It could just be Splitter for Haywood (can just not retain Williams). Not sure Spurs would need to give a pick, though the Haywood asset is amazing.
This could all be a smokescreen too for Portland as they may be asking for too much in a S&T (Green?). This could reduce their asking price.
On edit, saw that it may be Splitter+CoJo instead of Mills for Haywood's non-guaranteed (CoJo shares Lebron's agent). That would leave enough to keep Parker/Diaw/Mills/Anderson/Kawhi/Green and re-sign Duncan to a reasonable deal, plus grab Aldridge.

Splitter's contract isn't bad value, issue of course is retaining Green and adding Aldridge. Ideal would be S&T with Portland involving Splitter. 2 yrs/$17 mil isn't bad price for starting quality NBA big.
Reggie Williams doesn't clear any space though. You'd probably need to give up Mills too to clear money for Ginobili. You might as well throw Joseph into it too since the Spurs will have to cut him if they're looking to sign LMA outright. Is Brenda's deal 100% non-guaranteed?
Still, Cleveland has three centers in Mozgov, Varejao, and Thompson, so I see little reason they'd trade for Splitter anyways.
Wonder if they'll go after Sasha Kaun too? I remember them asking CLE about him.
I agree if any team doesn't need a center it's Cleveland
Splitter > Vergajao and Mozgov imo.
next to Love and Lebron and with Kylia patroling the perimeter, that team would be ing beast.
lets not forget Splitter is the guy who singlehandely took Alridge out of the playoffs 2years ago
Splitter will be sitting beside Kyrie, injured, during the playoffs.
His non-guaranteed contract is more valuable to the Spurs.
spurs trying to add depth to the cavs end of the year injury roster
Gino can play for the veteran exception which is just under $3m and counts as the rookie min for cap purposes. I read he was likely to play for that.
