Do the spurs need another all-star on the team....

[gospursgojas]

Maybe the spurs should try to draft a big man????

[milkyway21]

Z is good but my big Q? is what has he done in Cleveland, so far? Despite James' BIG games, they're still losing those road games.... James made 56 the other day and still they lost? that's ridiculous!
We need a player in the middle WHO CAN SCORE... i doubt if Z is the answer right now.

J O'Neal maybe, but he's tied up to a multi-yr contract, too.

that's the sad thing bec. he just signed a multi-yr contract w/ the Clippers a yr ago that's why we went for Rasho. but, anything is possible.

I know he had injuries but i think they're not as nagging & bad as Ray Allen, Miller, J.O'Neal's & he really look up to Tim Duncan...

I wasn't trying to say he was injury prone....all players can subject to injury.....Tim has had alot of injuries this that doesn't make him him prone to injury......I also think "injury prone" depends on the type of injury......like a Grant Hill thing getting the same area hurt over and over, or Brad Daugherty.

I personally would not mind Elton Brand.....but the bigger question is would tim play center if we were to acquire him in some way.

I see Ilgauksaus is a free agent at years end.....how would the rest of you react if we somehow dumped Rasho's contract and acquired "Z"?

Z, IMHO, would be a huge improvement over Rasho.

Z's career numbers are markedly better than Rasho.....

Z's line (career)
14.9 pts 7.7 rbs 1.9 blks 29.2 min/gm

Rasho's line (career)
7.4 pts 6 rbs 1.3 blks 24.9 min/gm

to me Rasho seems to be only a stop-gap measure until some can be found of note.

Z's has better numbers and on a surgically repaired wheel......Rasho has yet to really come close to expectations on a consistent basis...in fact in many areas he has regressed.

as you wish....the Big Dog came to town...

[Jimcs50]

NO!!!!


2 allstars is all they or any other team needs....anything more is counter productive.

[pigknuckles]

Spurs have two weaknesses I see, consistant outside shooting and lack of athleticism on front line (minus tim). These are magnified when Tim gets injured. I don't know about another allstar, it wouldn't be possible with our tight budget. But scrappiness and energy (ala malik) can sometimes make up for talent.

Maybe our front office can pull some more rabbits out of the hat.

There is no way in the Spurs can afford Z. You do know how much he is making this year right?

Yes the spurs need another reliable go to star.

Portland was a bad example. Portland remained compe ive for years by being agressive in acquiring good players but could not get a franchise player like duncan. And they did it without the benefit or getting lucky in the draft lottery. The spurs had the luck of the draft lottery to build a foundation on. I have no confidence at all that Pop/RC could have built a compe ive team without Duncan. Their track record with player acquisistions through Free agency and trades is proof enough.


Add another reliable star with Duncan and the spurs are better than with a bunch of role players or players who aren't there stats wise or with consistency yet.

Talk about a one trick pony

Is this the only thought that peanut brain of yours can produce?

[silverandblackreign]

A mul ude of All-Star players is usually counter-productive in all sports. Just look at Real Madrid (for anyone familiar with Soccer)...........

[smeagol]

The spurs don't need another all-star...they have Manu and Tony....keep alternating solid role players around Tim and they'll compete year in and year out. Take LA for example...they had Shaq and Kobe, with a bunch of other good players...barring any injuries they competed each year and went to the finals 4/5 years. Now that it's blown up, look at them, they are re-building...honesly I would rather be in this position that the spurs are in..but it shows you how vulnerable they are...as most teams are when the superstar player goes down.

Funny. A LakerFan gets it while some of our retarded so called spurs fans don't.

Pathetic.
