Thank You Brent & Cisco

[Spurs Brazil]

Thanks for everything Brent

2 rings

I hope Sonics waive him so he can comeback to get the 3rd one

One of Barry's last plays as a Spur (for all we know right now)

[BonnerDynasty]

Elson definitely had his moments. When he was on, HE WAS ON.

[bdictjames]

The ball hit the rim and backboard in 7 different places on that play.
Never clutched my fist harder than when that happened.

I was actually about to leave the room when that happened. I couldnt stand seeing us struggle against the Kings like that.

But Barry was just great. When that went in, I left the room and I knew the Spurs are going to win it.

Thank you Brent!!! Spurs fans will miss you so much.. its so sad for you to be traded.

[bdictjames]

Elson definitely had his moments. When he was on, HE WAS ON.

Like that great double-double against the Pistons which started our winning streak on the RRT last year.

Mostly he was more bad than good though. But the big guy was never a complainer. I hope he learned from Tim Duncan, Popovich and the whole Spurs crew.

[Behrooz24]

f elson.

Barry will always be my nga

[celldweller]

Thanks Brent! SEE YOU IN A MONTH !!

[baseline bum]

I'll never forget the way Brent absolutely torched Phoenix in game 1 of the 05 WCF, or the way he kept us in game 3 of the Finals in Detroit (until Beno came in and blew the game). Also, he was great in backing up the point in game 7 of the Finals.

[Bruno]

Both were good soldiers, I will miss them.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

My memory of Elson was of him shouting "Party Like A Rock Star" (I think that's what he was saying) after he got his ring on the stage...

I really wouldn't have minded if he helped us out for one more year, he just didn't improve enough in time before the trade...

[bigfan]

Well sorry to see ole Bones go, he was a great Spur but I think we all knew he wasnt coming back after the end of the season. As for Elson, I liked the guy and still think he has untapped potential. I dont car about the draft pick that much right now, we have plenty. I want to know more about Thomas.

[porscha]

hate to see brent is leaving, hopefully he will be back..thank you brent

[SA Gunslinger]

Thanks to both, but especially Barry. He even said he wanted to Steve Kerr his way to some rings. Hopefully he will get one more if everything works out.

[Agloco]

Two cool doods.....

Good luck to them. It's gotta be a ty feeling though, eh? Going from a contender to a team with absolutely no hope at all........

[angel_luv]

At least they get to be reunited with Coach Carlesimo.

[MannyIsGod]

I really hope Brent comes back. He was one of my favorite Spurs to watch. He, Manu, and Tony on the court together could be magical at times.

Thanks dude.

[Budkin]

Please Sonics buyout Barry so we can have him back!!!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Farewell Brent, you were a great Spur and will be missed. I loved your smarts, those transition D hustle steals and broken plays that you were so good at, and that strange slingshot of yours that splashed so many nets. May you be happy and successful wherever you are.

Fransisco, you tried hard and cared, I'm pretty sure you're a great guy, and for the rest of your life you'll be an NBA champion. Thanks for the effort.

Peace.

[Avitus1]

Tough trade. It would be nice if the Sonics waived him and he came back the man brings a lot to the team. He is also is very entertaining (HEB Commercials.)

Goodbye Elson.... you came through when we needed you (most of the time.)

[spursrocksocks]

Barry was one of my favorites, he was just a great all around guy I hope he makes his way back here soon

[T Park]

Hopefully Barry is brought back. If not this year, then next year. He still has a little bit of gas in the tank. It sucks that he finally figured out what Pop wanted from him and then got injured. I guess that's how life goes, though.

I crusaded against signing Elson to begin with but I actually grew to kinda like the guy. Hard worker, cared about winning and never made a fuss. He deserved the championship ring he got last year.

Props to both players. Hopefully Elson can stick around the NBA a few more years -- he's good enough to play on this level. Hopefully Barry becomes a Spur again. If not, thanks for the memories.

Disagree about Elson, but pretty much spot on on how I feel.

Brent as much as I bagged on you, you were very funny and a fantastic teammate.

Hopefully your stackhoused and brought back, you were gonna be fantastic in the playoffs.

[Brutalis]

Aw Barry. You will be missed bro. As for Elson, see ya.

[carina_gino20]

Oh, man. I hate to see Brent go. And though Cisco wasn't really doing much this year, he also had his moments. But it's basketball, and it's business, I guess. At least Brent got two rings, and Cisco got one.

All the best. At least there's still the Spurs connection in PJ.

[T Park]

I've got a strange feeling that Barry is just gonna rehab and rest that calf for 30 days.

If so, and comes back at the end of March, it works out perfect. The calf gets to pretty damn close to 100%, and he was probobly gonna miss the next 3 weeks anyways.

Cross your fingers Spurs fans that Brent gets stackhoused (TM Chumpdumper)

[reddog 99]

Brent will always be a Spur to me. He flourished here and finally found a band of basketball brothers. Its sad when someone has to take it for the team.

The Barry family will be missed if they truly have to leave.

I'll never forget his last playing time before he got injured. He was so happy to give us those back to back three's especially off of some good "D". When he was running down the court he was so happy and swung up both fingers with who we are "Number One Baby"

eyes closed, eyes closed

Come back soon Bones!
