Yeah, too bad Finley didn't sign with us after all.
oh for s sake......I know you Pop lovers will cringe, but how long is Pops contract?

Pop won't get rid of duncan, manu, parker....
Me too.
This thing begins and ends with Tim Duncan. I think he's the only piece that cannot be touched. For the next several seasons, as long as Tim Duncan is in San Antonio, the Spurs are automatically contenders.
Everyone else is tradeable, but the prices vary. The likelihood of the Spurs getting their price for Parker is remote. The chances they get their price for Ginobili is better, but still pretty unlikely. I think Bowen fits with both of those -- the Spurs would be willing to deal but the price they'd exact to make that deal is pretty steep.
Oberto's value is hovering around zero -- he could be a slight net positive or slight net negative.
In other words, he likely has no trade value.
I'd consider trading any player outside of Duncan. So, if the Spurs get quality, I wouldn't mind an Oberto trade too much
The offer would have to be real damn sweet for me to consider losing Manu. He's the guard this team had been searching for since the team traded Alvin for TC in '89. Manu is almost up there with Tim on the untouchables list for me, because generally Manu is a fourth quarter assassin.
I'd also never trade Bruce. You can say it's a business, but he's never looked at us from a business standpoint, and I think the team owes it to him to repay the favor and not send him to some hole like Atlanta or Minnesota. He turned down a 3 year MLE deal from Portland to sign here for $700k in 2002, and then restructured his deal to help us sign Manu and Tony.
Well he did foul Dirk and a strong case could be made for him costing the Spurs but I'd rather reconize that there were other numerous screwups. Manu gets the rap because it happened at the end of a game 7. There were plenty of other Spurs making critical mistakes all series long that could've changed the outcome of more than one game. Other than game 2 we were in every one and had a chance to win it late.I can't believe you guys, you blame Manu for going up to block a shot
he almost single handedly got us back in that game and then put us ahead?
what a blind man u r! it is Fin & tim get the spurs back and then manu made a 3-p. In the first qr, manu has 0 pointer\1 reb\ 2 to's,and that is the reason we digged the hole, he reserves for the 4th qr to act as the finisher while tim and other player try to keep up with mavs. and once manu made some shot in 4th qr your guys would think it is manu's contribution. what a joke your guys say like this in the condition that manu had waste our defending champion chance.
Surely you, ChumpDumper and the rest of the lovers of Stand n Veg
Offensive Pop Ball could continue your relationship with him.
I know hiring and submitting to an O coordinator like Phil Jackson did with Tex Winters is out of the Pop question.
Instead he'll bail when Duncan does IMO.
Back to Fabs Oberto, how about Fabs in exchange for an appearance at the stadium by Jessica Alba in a bikini?
I would cut Bruce faster than that
I'm going to suggest we hold off on trading Oberto till December.
He was a 30 year old ROOKIE and I think he was completely engulfed
in the fact that he was with the SPURS and in the NBA. I may be
seeing things that I want to see, i.e. potential.

English next time, bag.
Would you suggest that since POP would NEVER hire or listen to an O coordinator?perhaps he should read

The Argentina Offense by Ruben Magnano

I got several others I would suggest but nevermind. just forget it,its going to be small ball and pound it in to TD no matter who we have for our 15 players.
Pop is more than likely rewritting
The Game Philisophy of the San Antonio Spurs.
If he's what we need to make a deal work, we ship him out now, simple. Even if he gets better, he would have a long way to climb to be a difference maker.
Besides, he's probably already our 5th big, and we're still likely to bring in a starter. That would likely put him on the inactive list, which means he doesn't even get a chance to show he can play. Shipping him out is a lot better option than playing him $2.5M to wear a suit.
