He makes the league minimum right? I thought you could pick up minimum-salary players w/o that rule. Could be wrong.
How much does Aaron Williams make?
Bonner + 2nd rounder for Singleton + Aaron Williams
Does that work?
Spurs have to trade a player. the only contract that works straight by the numbers is the one of Vaughn.
I think, if they did such a trade, it would include some more (non rotation) players.

You can sign a player to the vet minimum but in trades you have to always swap salary.
Would the Spurs do it? Would you?
Spurs would have to wave Williams (or another player), so it would be Singleton for Bonner. overall it's not a good deal.
Singleton + Korolev for Bonner + 2nd rounder looks fair talentwise.
(Korolev is a gamble though)
Singleton+Korolev+Ewing for Bonner+Beno+2nd rounder
Spur would have to wave a player (Vaughn?)
Korolev is definitly an interesting prospect & one that the Spurs should pursue signing next year. THe Clipps did not offer him an extension this summer & he will be an unrestricted FA next year. IMO an LLE contract would be a good gamble on this kid, but once again other teams might bid his salary up. A 7ft wing player who has good athlecticism will defintly interest a few teams. I hope we are one of them.
New guy here. I'm just tossing this out there so please don't bite my head off.
Is Philly in rebuild mode?
How about Eric Williams for Steven Hunter and Louis Williams? Or E. Will for Steven Hunter and Alan Henderson?
Or, since Larry Brown is "consulting" in Philly, how about Jackie Butler and a second round pick for Steven Hunter? This way they get a big back that Larry supposedly likes and we get a big man that might help us out.
I like the first one as an idea, but getting Steven Hunter w/o getting rid of one of the other bigs is just adding to the glut of PF/Cs, while failing to address one of the other issues (long 3, backup PG). And honestly, I'm not sure Hunter would be more useful than what the Spurs have.
It's also too early to give up on Butler just yet, especially for Hunter.
Overall, not bad. Definitely in the realm of "reasonable".
I don't think the Spurs take on salary beyond '08 for a guy like Stephen Hunter, who is only marginally better than what they have.
I suppose I was impressed by his 1.4 blocks per game but I neglected to take into account he's playing in the lEast.
He's good. His blocks sure would be handy, but I don't think the Spurs look at salary beyond next year.
I wonder if Hunter is better on D than Elson. Elson looks like he just chases down every player with the ball when he's out there. I could be wrong but I was at the Houston game last week and Elson left Howard all the time and the guy scored. He wasn't rotating, he was just chasing.
I suppose it's a moot point though since the Spurs already have a plan for the future.
They both suck, end of conversation!!
singleton wants trade
Clippers coach Mike Dunleavy said it is unlikely the Clippers would make a trade before the Feb.22 deadline. But one player - not named Corey Maggette - wants out. Maggette requested a trade more than a month ago, through his agent. The Clippers explored options but none surfaced that interested them. Now second-year forward James Singleton wants to change teams.
Singleton was the first player out of the locker room after Wednesday's victory over Chicago.
"I don't want to sound like I'm whining," Singleton said. "I just want to play, and I don't think it'll be here. I'm never getting the opportunity, and so I told my agent to call them and ask them to trade me."
Singleton has appeared in 28 games and is averaging 1.9 points and 2.1 rebounds in eight minutes. He averaged 3.4 points and 3.3 rebounds as a rookie last year in 59 games.

I have heard other posters interested in Singleton.
Quite an athlete... Great dunker... Very aggressive rebounder
Guys like James Singleton, Steven Hunter and Korolev aren't going to help the Spurs to win a le.
Pop and R.C. aren't going to make a trade this season, Pop said it and they don't have anything special to offer other teams and they won't trade their core players. They'll wait until the off-season, evaluate the playoff run (as of right now we're not making it to the Conference Finals), then they'll try to make the moves they think will ensure us a great 07/08 season.
I like James Singleton. But for him to ask for a trade makes me think less of him. When you are an end of the bench scrub, you should just praise the lord that you are in the NBA.
we do need a player like swift or warrick
When can we stop thinking about contract length and get some players that will help us win now? WTF is going on?
Because Plan 2008 will lead to a magical summer with puppies and unicorns.
Actually... seriously, it will.
I hate puppies and unisexes.
Nobody that the Spurs could trade for are going to help us win a le this year...other teams are not going to give up difference makers for our junk...we already know all of this.
Trade Beno as a filler for trading away EWill's expiring contract. This opens up a roster slot for giving White/Butler more minutes and then you go after Pepe.
Pepe Sanchez >>>> Beno Udrih
