as much as i love mcdyess they would be poking the bulls in the eyes if no picks are involved its a no brainer
McDyess getting traded to Denver would actually be a positive for him..they have a much better chance at winning a le than the Spurs do..he's also good friends with Billups, so that would be a positive for him too..
Personally, I'd rather keep McDyess, but the way Pop has constructed this current team, we desperately need youth..it would be easier to play 'Dice if we had an athletic big man to off-set him for matchup purposes..
Like the article says though..the Spurs have tried to shop Jefferson too..maybe nothing happens..maybe some team ends up taking Jefferson at the deadline, which could potentially free up cap space for next year..there's still plenty of time and none of us know what will happen, so let's have some patience..

Exactly how I feel.
Something is going to happen that surprises everyone.
'Dyess is a Championship piece for a team with the right pieces in place -- the Spurs are not that team, sadly . . .
Maybe Jr smith is available...Not that I like this crazy kid but he's def. got some game.
It would be cool if the Spurs FO surprised us with an unexpected trade for a big piece, although I wouldn't expect it at all..
It's tough to get a read on all of this because we're in such foreign territory right now..everything about this season has been unusual for the Spurs, so I really have no idea what to expect..
Yeah, expect the unexpected.
What a year . . .
heh, i thought it was kurt thomas for a second. from what it sounds like in the article, it just seems that the spurs are trying to get rid of mcdyess for expiring contracts to make room for thomas. thomas is still young enough for the spurs to influence him but the spurs would be giving up on this year. thomas is a project and will see many minutes on the bench.
True.
This is first time in recent memory that the Spurs may make transactions that are focused on improving future Spurs teams rather than upgrading the roster for the current season.
I wish more people would throw Bogans name into trade talks. Even if he's not going anywhere it would be nice to fantasize about.
I hope Mason and Finley leave with no wings returning, making the guy in your avatar a player Pop is forced to play 20+ minutes a night.
And is the trade deadline at 12:00 AM tomo, or 11:59 PM? I'm guessing the latter.
this is also the first season in recent memory the spurs are borderline out of the playoffs
trading dyess is beyond ing re ed....
sounds like spurs FO are considering this season over
Sure could have used him last year.
There are two camps about the buyout. One is Dyess is bitter with the Nugg org (even though the FO that used to jerk him around are no longer around), and the other is that he was going to be bought out by the org because they just wanted Chauncey.
Either way, he'd be really good for Denver. Don't see how it would come to fruition though. Denver has little to work with trade-wise.
So, the rebuilding begins.
I think it's more realistic to assume the Spurs will make the playoffs, but'll have to face one of the top 3 seeds in the first round. Assuming they keep pace.
That fact would seem to be the motivating force in the changed focus.
If they trade Dice, and Tyrus Thomas is the main piece they get from their dealings, I would not be happy at all. Wouldn't make any sort of basketball sense if the goal is to win this year.
Normally I'm a huge fan of Woj and trust his sources. but I seriously hope that either there's more to this story than it seems at first glance, or the Spurs are pulling some major CIA stuff to get people off their trail.
I highly doubt Spurs will be able to trade Dice for expiring contract. He is old, has been very average this year and has a quite big contract. When you see how teams have a hard time dumping contracts, Spurs would have to give up assets to make that trade.
IMO, Dice will still be a Spur next week.
Oh wow! Spurs are shopping out Dice when they could shope out Finely, Bonner among others!?!?!?!
WTF.....oooohhhh now I remember. This guy is in charge
Especialy Finley and Bonner are not going anywhere as long as he calls the shots.
The trade deadline is Thursday at 2 p.m.I hope Mason and Finley leave with no wings returning, making the guy in your avatar a player Pop is forced to play 20+ minutes a night.
And is the trade deadline at 12:00 AM tomo, or 11:59 PM? I'm guessing the latter.
If the Spurs FO are now sour about signing Dice and Jefferson, then that would make it an $18,700,00 mistake.
Dyess and Mace=Jamison?
Nobody wants their skid-marks.Oh wow! Spurs are shopping out Dice when they could shope out Finely, Bonner among others!?!?!?!
