You'd think Tim just got traded.
Yes, I'm sad to see him go, but it's not the end of the world. You can still be a Malik fan so why not wish him well on his new team?
I would rather win a Championship with Rose, is that so horrible?

Wow! "Get a life asshole"
Yep you sure are showing us some maturity today...
Its been explained to you by pretty much every poster on the board, this deal works for us it gets another backup BIG, as in he is actually tall for an undersized quasi power forward.
I agree.. ^^^^
People getting emotionally attached to players like they are there best friends is a little silly.
Its a game, and its business, give me a break.
Do a "Malik Rose tribute" or something. Maybe you think Malik is a marginally better player than his replacement. That's at least debatable. But if you out and question the integrity of the organization that brought two championships and serves as the league's model franchise for making a run-of-the-mill trade, then you are an ingrate, pure and simple.
True. There wouldn't be a damn team in San Antonio if the organization didn't bust its ass putting together an elite team for its spoiled ingrate fans in spite of themselves. They'd be in a decent-sized market somewhere else while San Antonio rooted for Dallas or Houston teams, just like in football and baseball. The Spurs are doing all of you a damn favor. There's only been one other instance of a team this good in a market this small, and that's Lombardi's Packers. We are the luckiest basketball fans on the damn planet and you're ing about Malik Rose. Malik Rose. He's a nice guy and a good player, but give the front office a little damn credit for once.No you're the ing loser for thinking you have the right to mock my reaction to a team I root for. That's what fans do, we're not buisness men, we don't run teams, we support them and root for them, and we get emotional about them. Without us "whiny ass" fans there would be no god damn team here.
If somebody didn't like the way Lombardi did business, he would tell them to go themselves. Which is what the Spurs ought to do to you. If the Spurs lose business for trading Malik while carrying out one of the best seasons of all time, then all that would show is that San Antonio is a ty sports town with terrible fans and that the franchise is too good for the city. I guarantee pretty much every other city in America would give both testicles from every first-born child to have a franchise like the Spurs. So get off your ing holier-than-thou high horse about how beholden the best team in the NBA is to your tobacco-spittling dumb ass.
Or just put me on ignore. I don't give a rat's ass. In summary, you.WTF do you think you are dip ?You're no one special trying to run me down for my indignation, if you think it's stupid, stfu and ignore the tread, you don't have anything valuble to add anyway.
Get a life asshole
you guys are funny.
I will miss Malik but this was an awesome trade for the Spurs. Ultimately I think it will be a good move professionally for Malik as well as he won't always be in his shadow backup role for a hall of fame power forward or forced to play out of position to get his minutes.
I also think Nazr Mohammed will be a good fit. As soon as he learns the system I expect him to take over the starting center slot. Character is not an issue as he is a devout Muslim (unless he carries it to extremes again by fasting for Ramaden like he did in NY...and POP will kick his ass if he does that) The guy is big and isn't afraid to bang. Tim needs someone like that to watch his back. He has good hands/shooting for a big guy and with Tony/Manu/Barry/Devin slashing and dumping Mohammed will feast on that like Shaq at an "all you can eat" buffet...I expect his points per game to go up significantly as defenders are gonna try to cheat off of him to stay within double distance of Tim and this plays right into the strengths of his game. All in all a perfect fit for the Spurs system.
good job RC and Pop!
please never try to be a basketball gm .. or in any management position in any business.
"well, this guy's salary is damaging the team and he's not playing well. but, he's already been here for almost a decade. let's keep him. in fact, extend his contract. championships aren't worth hurt feelings"
Does this mean you'll stop going postal every time someone criticizes Rasho?

Latest Notes
Feb. 24 The Knicks sent Nazr Mohammed and Jamison Brewer to the Spurs for Malik Rose and a first-round pick, according to ESPN's Chad Ford.
Feb. 22 Nazr Mohammed said yesterday that his nagging groin injury felt a lot better after the All-Star break, according to the New York Daily News.
Feb. 14 Although Nazr Mohammed was able to play through his groin injury last night, he was limited to just 15 minutes and none in the fourth quarter, according to the New York Daily News.
Feb. 13 A groin injury limited Nazr Mohammed during Friday's game, but he's not expected to miss today's contest, according to the New York Daily News.
Nov. 8 Even though Nazr Mohammed hasn't given the Knicks the type of interior presence they'd like, coach Lenny Wilkens said he's not giving up on starting Mohammed at center, according to the New York Daily News.
The guy is 610 and I am sure that is why Pop went for him - facing the Dirks of the world we need some ht at FW/Center besides Duncan.
I remember this guy was drooled over a few years back and I would not be surprised if he surprised us all! (Even though as a longtime Spurs fan and a current Drexel Professor I will miss Malik - probably catch him a couple times a years at 76 and Knicks games and root for him (but not the Knicks)
I gotta stay up to watch TNT tonight...betcha Charles, Kenny and the boys are UNANIMOUS that the Spurs just got a lot better.
Funny i dont remember calling anyone assholes and stuff like that.Does this mean you'll stop going postal every time someone criticizes Rasho?
I only disagree with people that speak false BS.
Im not emotionally attached to Rasho, if he was traded this afternoon, to make this team better? I would be all for it.
Call 1-800 wah and email Kori your problems.
You're totally missing the point. Most aren't calling you out because you reacted emotionally to the Spurs trading one of your favorite players.
Personally, I don't think you're being stupid for getting sad or wanting him to stay. I just think you made a bad call for calling the Spurs classless. It reallly doesn't make any sense. The reasons why the move wasn't classless have been spelled out many times in this thread.
Face it: just because the Spurs made a move you don't like doesn't make them classless. You can dislike the trade, but you make a fool of yourself when you try to make the Spurs look like a coldhearted, classless team just because they made a trade that everyone including Malik has expected for three years.
If anything, Malik is the classless one. He's the one that didn't live up to his end of the bargain by tanking it at times last season. I don't really believe that, but it's arguable at least.
R2D - Your reaction is pretty funny for someone who quotes Gandhi in his sig. Get a grip. Malik and the Spurs will both be better for this deal.
Charles approved.
C'mon T Park, too easy.
How many nanoseconds would it take me to find a post?
It's all good, bro. Everybody has buttons.
Yours just happens to be 7 foot tall and won't dunk.
I never said i was going to hurt any britishers and i certianly dont advocate violence.
Perhaps i ought to point out that i have had 8 teeth pulled today and my pain killers arent working. Then i come home and Rose is traded.
Look man I think this trade smells. If you guys dont think so that doesn't mean you have to have a bag on r2d session because i used the word classless. I get emotionally attached to the players i have rooted for, for years and years i see nothing wrong with that. It's ok though, this thread had thought me how to use the ignore botton.
How dare they give up Jaren Jackson's number!:p
Very true, and second place is not even close.
Why are people still whining? Charles said it was a great trade for SA, what more do you all want?
Well then, I feel a whole lot better.
obviously Malik went to Jim to get his teeth straightened.
No other reason to understand the man love.
look at his game by game numbers in January.
Unfreakin real.
Folks, the Spurs got a in of a steal.
i am iffy on the analysits projections as none of them are taking into account that Nazr is having a career year right now and it very well might not transfer to a team with a diffrent offensive philosiphy, i'm not really sure how often Newy York runs a four down (im gonna go out on a limb and say not much) and I don't know how much they run a motion offense, i was under the impression that Marbury is trying to make this team a run and gun transition team.
I was being sarcastic
Jim's an orthodEntist????obviously Malik went to Jim to get his teeth straightened
