Would like to have a young center waiting in the wings in the event that the Spurs sign West and LMA. I guess it's lucky that the Spurs just drafted two of them.
It'd be the greatest off season ever.![]()

Wouldn't mind having west and hibbert if LMA falls thru

Washington uses its bi-annual exception on Neal, holding onto its full mid-level exception to offer West.

Hearing Clippers have interest in David West in light of DeAndre Jordan departure
Smart.
..IF West wants a le contender as priority than money, Clippers has a shot. :![]()
someone replied something like: "But does he have interest in the Clippers"
I doubt it. Don't think they have any big men right now outside of Griffin. And I'm not sure either should start at Center full time.
Barring some S&T scenario that means West gets the room exception. If Manu doesn't retire or join other club then he plays for vet min.
Not out of the question. Pacers and Spurs don't mind working with each other.
West grew up a Spurs fan so let's hope that will help convince him to end his career right.
I really, really want David West regardless of whether or not the Spurs get Aldridge.
Edit : I also think he'd be the last piece of the puzzle to a Championship team just like I thought PJ Brown was the last piece to the Championship puzzle in 2008 if the Spurs got him. I really wanted the Spurs to get PJ Brown that season and it turns out he was the last piece of a Championship puzzle, just not the Spurs Championship puzzle.
Pacers could potentially use Corey Joseph.
I wonder if Bird would help him when he blasted them on his way out. And what could we possibly give that would entice them enough to facilitate a trade. A future second rounder? Maybe we could do a three team trade with Atlanta. If we got a pick from Atlanta, we send it to Indiana. Atlanta gets Splitter, and we get West. Does that work?
Was my first thought as well.
They've been known to take our used up Point Guards....
That would solidify the big rotation without a doubt.
I'd love to get West, but he honestly feels a bit redundant when we already have Diaw. Part of me thinks we should focus on finding a serviceable backup center first.
I mean, what are we going to do if Duncan goes down and has to sit out a couple of weeks? I guess bigs are bigs, and having West strengthens that rotation, but him and Diaw aren't really ideal centers.
Washington it is. More money and a more prominent role in the weaker east.
Another player stringing the Spurs along. What else is new?
Washington has already made room for him. He seems to be waiting on the Spurs.
There are no backup centers remotely as talented as David West.
West is no longer good enough to ignore a potentially glaring need, though..
I'd rather have Koufos, tbh..
When was David West ever even a part time center in his career?
He's always played the bulk of his minutes at the 4.
No one is saying he's ever been a center.
Oh I'd definitely take Koufos over West in a heartbeat...unfortunately I don't see him coming here for the minimum (don't think West will either, but Koufos definitely won't). Koufos can at least get the full MLE from someone.
I honestly don't know who the we could target for backup center for the minimum. Biyombo?, even he'll likely get $3-4 million somewhere.
