I'd love to see the Spurs attempt to use Scola's rights as bait to move into the 1st round of the draft. I don't know what else it would take to do that though.

It's been batted around on other threads, but it's either Ronnie Brewer if he drops or Thabo Sefolosha.
Thabo Sefolosha just has a 500k buyot from I have heard
thanks mr body
Perhaps a team like Chicago or New Jersey, with two picks in the 1st round, would be a willing trade partner.
Look, whatever we do, package Stan Kelly and send him away with whomever we are trading.
Just do it once and for all.
To go backwards a bit -- I've also seen Barry's deal as one that expires in 08, not in 07. If there's a team option, all the better in terms of making deals.
I think there's a difference, too, with Scola as opposed to the situation with Giricek. Giricek is a dime-a-dozen sort of guard who was never seen as being anything other than that. As such, it stood to reason that putting him on the market would only draw marginal interest and the smallest compensation in a trade. I think Scola is a very different chip, if only because he's been widely regarded as being a lottery-quality player had he been draft eligible. He's got a pretty solid resume at this point -- a resume (in Europe and in international compe ion) that is much more impressive than Giricek's was when he was entering the league -- which makes him something other than a dime-a-dozen type. Even if recent statements might cut against the Spurs' bargaining position, the likelihood that several teams might be interested in Scola and bargaining against each other should offset that -- at least to some degree.
Kori suggested Troy Murphy....I'd be jumping up and down for three days straight if we got our hands on that guy.
The problem is his salary, which is horrid. Long running, into 2011 or so, $8-11 a year.
I seem to have missed the thread that said Scola is out of the picture.
Can I get link? Thanks!
Apparently the Spurs told him they are trying to trade his rights.

Scola was never on my projected roster, so no changes
I think the Spurs need to sign/trade Nazr for another big. And then pickup a backup PG with the rest of the MLE (assuming some of it is going to Javtokas). If a sign/trade doesn't work out, then continue to shop Barry/Oberto/whoever to try to find another big. Then fill out their roster with young athletes.
The Spurs just need tweaks, not an overhaul. But I think one more trade is coming and I definitely think another big man will be necessary. I don't like the idea of starting Javtokas or Bonner from the get-go.
who could we get for Nazr that's actually good?
