I don't think he's an upgrade when you consider contract value.
Porker, Diaw and picks for Rudy Gay and Darren Collison...

how does sefolosha help? Dude can't shoot.
Besides the loyalty factor, it would take a gigantic sucker to take on that contract, IMO.
Maybe Jim in Los Angeles or Phil in New York, but it's not a given...
Just get ready for the next extension after next summer when he gets to eat up 18 million for legacy on his last 2 years of his legs.
To NY for Calderon, O'Quinn and Grant
To ATL for Teague and Splitter.
I read "Domain Age" as Average Age.

Just hear me out....
Can an NBA coach be traded?
Yes, he can:

Example is Doc Rivers.
Now since many on SpursTalk consider Pop to be the best coach in the NBA, surely there may be some other organizations that think so to. What would a Parker / Pop combo trade get in return?
Manu love boys still trying to devalue Tony. Another summer of spurs haters.
http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=z5pjjsh Any chance Milwauke wanna tank and take our 2 frenchies off our hands?
http://espn.go.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=zu372u9 this would kick ass
Gortat
Alrdridge
Leonard
Green
Wall
Washington execs hang up on RC lol but they would be 2 amazing pieces next to Green Leonard and Aldridge

Isiah Thomas (the elder) is no longer running the show in NY, so the trade possibilities are limited. Someone might offer a sign-and-trade for Jimmer, if the Spurs throw in their first round pick.
Naaahhh.
Nah, his play devalues him.
Bud might be up for TP due to the level of familiarity.
I'd take MCW in a heartbeat.. Length, Athletic, good defensive instincts and young.. Tweak his jump shot a little bit and he'd be a good fit.
Eh, I'm sure we can probably get a big of chips for him or something. Doubt teams would give away more.
What are the chances that nothing happens...???? Same team, next year...
He's not being traded. Hate all y'all want, but he's retiring a Spurs unless he wants to leave, which he said he doesnt.
He's done a lot for this team and sacrificed money in the past. Should talk about more realistic options for our team
Begs the question: Does it matter?
Why would any of those teams trade for Parker? Parker hasn't had star power in over 3 years. That ship has sailed and even though Phil may be slowly becoming senile -- he's not stupid.
ATL? They wouldn't want Tony. They intend on moving forward w/ Schroder starting at PG 30+mpg. It would make no sense for them to want to take on Tony's 30 million to fill in a 15 minute role.
Knicks? Knicks are rebuilding. Why would they give up their young prospect at point guard, who fits perfectly with their current situation (rebuilding)? Why would they give that up to take on an over the hill, overpaid 34 year old point guard 30 million the next two years? Just hold on to Caulderon, who is much cheaper and provides the only valuable thing TP would bring (leadership).
Nets? Nets, like the Knicks, are rebuilding. Makes no sense for them to give up a quality player like Thaddeous Young for a 30 million 34 year old PG when they are so far away from being a playoff team.
They don't have anyone to back up Schroder, unless they plan on signing a weak free agency point guard to back him up . Buford of course has worked with Parker a lot when he was down here. Parker could take on that sixth man role on a playoff team in the East.
I don't think the New York area fans want to see their teams rebuild, especially with win now players Carmelo and Brook Lopez on their teams . At least get the casual Knicks/Nets fans excited about a past all star joining the team . I don't think Phil Jackson gives a crap either as he wants to go back to LA.
Maybe Sean Marks thinks highly of Parker, the Spurs did give him an extension when he moved to the front office so maybe he was one the one behind that move. As I mentioned also Young has an extra year, and $7 million on his contract compared to Parker's.
Bud is a smart guy. Hawks would be better off heading into Free Agency with 15 million extra to spend on back up PG and other parts than to take on Parker's contract to fill in a 15 minute role.
Knicks and Nets won't want Parker for the reasons I mentioned above -- he's past his prime and getting older and most importantly he's owed 30 million the next 2 years. Not with competent and meticulous people in charge, like Phil and Marks in charge. Makes no sense for them to tighten up their potential flexibility by trading for and paying 34 year old Tony Parker 30 million the next two years.
He seemed to shoot, and play well in the Cleveland series. He does fit that 3rd good perimeter defender we need off the bench in limited minutes.
