ploto - go read the my first post in that thread. I said he was gone and wished him luck.
Right. The Spurs would have to spend money on him.
``Jackie is someone we wanted in the deal,'' Morey said. ``Obviously, we had a need at center. He'll have a shot to prove it.''
But the prize in the deal was Scola.
``He has a pretty complete game in terms of an offensive skill-set, defensive integrity. He was MVP of the Spanish League, the best league outside the US, two of the last three years. He's been Euroleague first team which I would say makes him a top five player over the there.
``If I had to describe him, he's just a winner.''
Houston got two guys they wanted, Spurs got money for Holt to built a 4 million dollar dog house for his weiner dog.
with Adelman? I give him a wide berth.Who thinks Scola will be a 15/5 guy for Adelman?
12-16, 5-8, 1 bpg
But mostly big time plays from a big time player who makes things happen.
Spurs just got destroyed by the Rockets. And threw in Jackie Butler along the way.
If the Rockets need anything else, I'm sure they'll just pick up the phone with a shiny 2011 2nd rounder to get whatever they want.
This is obviously the first half of something else the Spurs are going to do...
Unless I am forgetting something, Hayes is an Early-Bird free agent, so the Spurs would have to offer him more than 2 years/$10 mil for Houston not to be able to match.
Yeah, the county built him an arena.
Yeah, Pop and R.C. pick up nice bonus checks from Holt for saving him 5 mil.
Holt sycophants never get it.
I'll be honest, I saw chachi start this thread and I immediately went to MySA.com and saw nothing about this trade. I damn near posted some smartass reply that he was full of . Surely this was a joke.

I was referring to your take in this thread that it sets a bad precedent with regards to getting players to play in the summer league. I was AGREEING with you.
If you would rather turn it into a pissing contest, I told people he was gone last week and got called racist.
I can't believe the Spurs just threw away just about the only two trade assets they had for nothing.
I still can't believe it.
The other half is signing Mahinmi and assigning him to Austin.
God I hope so...but I don't really see how they have postured themselves at all for a future move since they dumped a very small amount of salary, only one roster spot, and two huge trade assets.
Okay, that made me feel a little better.
After letting Butler and Scola go for nothing, Mahinmi better be the best thing since Tim. Stupidest ing trade ever.
This trade sucks solely because of the fact we traded Scola for nothing.
I would have let Jackie Butler walk away for nothing.
Does this mean we can add CJ Watson now?
Well, you do have a fondness for the lighter skinned balla.
I doubt this. If I'm not mistaken, the rockets have bird rights on Dikembe.
How ing great would that be?
