Miami might make a run at him now that the Clippers have signed Jason Williams
I think this is a legit concern, and it has not been addressed adequately. It seems the Spurs' solution is to just get smaller, which is worrisome.
Miami might make a run at him now that the Clippers have signed Jason Williams
yeah I'd put money on him signing with the heat
eh, odom's a pretty mediocre small forward. the true value in him is his ability to play the 4 while being a better athlete than his compe ors at that position.
move him to a big 3, and he loses much of his luster.
What's up with Dorrell Wright - did he ever sign with Miami?
I just think most of the criticisms being vented by many Spurs' fans are purely emotional, and don't bother to take reality into consideration. Maggette decided he wanted to make 10 mil a year while losing rather than 5.8 mil a year contending for a championship. Not the fault of the Spurs. Lots of people claimed that the Nuggets were in payroll penalty tax and couldn't match offers for JR Smith... but then they traded Camby for nothing and it's plain to see that they will match any offers. Again, not the fault of the Spurs.
I still think signing Mason was a great move. He may not have the appeal of Maggette and Smith, but he plays defense and will be an improvement over Finley as the starting SG. I also think some people should start admitting that the FO was right to not sign Smith to an offer sheet-- it would have been matched, and then the Spurs would have gotten nothing. Just imagine the ranting if that had happened...
I still see these as the Spurs biggest problems:
1. After Duncan, the Spurs have 0 bigs that have any offensive game.
2. Bowen/Udoka are not big enough to guard longs SF's or mobile PF's.
3. Duncan is the only shotblocker.
4. They need to replace Horry. Can Bonner or Tolliver bring it?
It didn't seem to me like we lost to the Lakers because the backup PG wasn't good enough.
We lost to the Lakers due to a no call on an obvious foul and a Manu injury - of course they did not have Bynum and could be better but who knows if he is going to be healthy?
Relax all - Spurs still in serious mix for championship.
There's really two sides in the problem; there is our needs, and then, there is our possibilities to fill them
Maybe the spurs could have done better with the draft, and still, it's not sure, but beside that, i see too many posters criticizing FO , like the only thing they need to do is identifying the needs, an the second part, getting the right player is an automatic thing
We would need a long SF, but if we only get guards it's not because FO doesn't know our needs, i think for the most part, they do their job pretty well; they went after maguette, batum, najera etc...gets turned down, and signed the best role players thay can, mason will improve the team
Getting younger, gettnng more athletic, all of these things are not an and in themselves ( sorry for the english), they are just means to get better, IMPROVING the team is the only goal, in that regard, clippers, warriors, hawks messed up, spurs did good
We're not in some kind of a fantasy league or on the playstation there
I don't think the spurs suck, i don't think they messed up this off season, i still have great faith they will win it all and be a team none of our foes wants to meet
yea it seems like spurs fans can not be pleased now days.
the FO knows what theyre are doing. even though everyone here think they dont. 4 les pretty much shows they know how to run things.

What does geeky, unathletic Ryan Bowen re-signing with the Bugs have anything to do with Pargo?
Lets hope so... but it seems like it is only a guess. It looks like there will be a decision soon...
The thing that worries me is the amount of time it is taking. This makes me feel that their may be a snag in the negotiations.
My bad, but that ain't exactly news that you found buried in that article. The situation has been that way, and static, for days.
I hope we sign Pargo just so C3PO has to try to defend Parker.
the longer this drags the more likely it is he signs with Miami
Miami is probably offering one more year (to entice him) starting at $100K less (the LLE) than the remainder of the Spurs MLE. If he really wanted the extra year, he would have taken Miami's offer. The Spurs rarely come off their bargaining position, and most agents know this, so he must still be considering. Being a FA in 2010 wouldn't suck. Being on a team like Miami would.
This Pargo guy is really pissing me off..the dude is taking too long to make a damn decision. There is only 3 teams after your services fool. One of them offering you a real chance at ring and. Make up your damn mind already so we can move on with this old news.

you should have more patience
Suns are offering Pargo only the minimum.
http://www.azcentral.com/members/Blog/PaulCoro/30100Pargo opted out of a Hornets contract that would have paid him $1.08 million this season so he was expecting more this summer. But like how the Suns had hoped Carlos Arroyo would fall into their minimum-offer hands, there is always the hope that Pargo would eventually accept the minimum and a good role with Phoenix.

Looks like Pargo is off the Suns radar since they just reportedly signed Dragic.
all indications point that Pargo should be a Spur very soon.
