Nets interested in Andray Blatche
The Nets’ ongoing search for frontcourt depth has led them to Houston, and a meeting with Andray Blatche, who was cut this summer by the Washington Wizards. He was set to meet with Nets Coach Avery Johnson sometime this weekend, according to two people with knowledge of the meeting. It was not clear whether the Nets were prepared to make Blatche an immediate offer or were simply exploring their options.

Let him sign somewhere else so we can stop pretending we're making anymore moves. is getting old.
If the man's even the least bit interested in moving to New York then he's probably not over his immaturity issues. I would like to see the Spurs offer him a camp invite, but I'm not holding my breath. This is the biggest non story of the summer for Spurs fans. Is there anything real to talk about?
hard to tell all we know is aj is willing to talk to him. hasnt been much on the spurs front other than bonner/blair r still here .I mean hes in Houston im sure pop an co. wouldnt have a hard time getting a hold of him.
15 pages about Andray Blatche?
^ 15 pages about Andray Blatche and we aren't even going to sign him..... lol
I think it's time to lock this en thread already
This is real no brainer. If he's willing to sign we just cut him if it doesn't work out.
He's apparently not at the point yet where he's willing to take an unguaranteed deal yet, according to NJ, and I doubt the Spurs want to throw away $1M+ in guaranteed contract money if he bombs out in training camp or something.
There are also 28 other teams that don't quite think it's a no brainer yet.
There are also 28 teams that don't have a frontcourt that consists of a soft 6'10 3-pt shooting PF and a 6'7 280 pound Center that has no range.
There are teams like Chicago that can't offer Blatche a contract due to the exceptions they used which created a hard cap for them. There are also teams like the Rockets, Raptors, and Magic that are loaded at the PF position and have no need to get Blatche. Add in the tanking teams that aren't going to be looking to get any better, and therefore wouldn't take any chance on him, and its not quite 28 teams anymore.
The real question is, of the 16 playoff teams, which would need him to compete or at least improve? Even that number would be reduced because the Heat, OKC, and Lakers are fairly well set, add to that the Jazz, and Memphis (assuming Arthur comes back 100%).
Long story short, the Spurs haven't let the other 29 teams in the league dictate what they've done so far, doubt they are starting with Blatche. And its not as if this FO hasn't simply been satisfied with subpar complimentary pieces to its starting frontcourt before.
Considering a job in New York City does not cons ute immaturity. Not sure what one has to do with the other.
You're not getting me. Not saying the Spurs are waiting for the other teams, just point out that NO ONE is rushing to sign this clown. People act like the Spurs are the only team sitting on their hands. They're not.
Project Spurs has SA inviting another PF not named Blatche to training camp. So far, the list includes Tyler Wilkerson, and as of today, Rayshawn Terry.
Probably the best place for him is a place without distractions, a smaller market. Look at what the move from DC to Sac did for Webber.
Would you like another cup of STFU, Wild Cobra Kai?
Yeah there's a couple guys that teams have been clamouring to sign.Project Spurs has SA inviting another PF not named Blatche to training camp. So far, the list includes Tyler Wilkerson, and as of today, Rayshawn Terry.
Nice size too, for your and Popazits idea of frontline help for Duncan.
Still 28 teams sitting on the sidelines. Hum de dum. Keep dreaming.
Spurs are looking at ing scrubs. Take a shot on Blatche.
Spur fan is really overrating Blatche nowadays.
Terry is a not a power forward unless he has added a lot of weight and changed his game. I liked him in high school and at Chapel Hill but he damn sure was not a power forward.
Mike Finley-Popovich, Soft Jefferson, Matty Bonner.....
Terry is a power forward swaggerjackson. Just ask Popped and Wild Cobra Kai.
We need some more of your cool coach prospect threads.
Thanks for taking a break from your recruiting of Luke Walton.
and know exactly what bonner /blair r
