    vince carter is available, jason kidd is available, the new jersey nets team is available. what i am saying is you gotta give up one or more of the big three to get one of those big name players and does that make this team any better. i am all for making the team better, but i don't see who is out there that is worth giving up what we have right now, this team this year right now. so if it is up to pop and rc, i trust pop and rc and you can have your little fest.

    Vince Carter worked out so well for NJ that they are now breaking the team up. They never even sniffed the level of the Kidd/RJ/KMart Nets that made two Finals appearances. Sexy acquistions aren't everything. You have to have the right mix of players, as NJ is finding out.

    Vince Carter with Duncan thats what you have to compare it to, not say the Nets are not any good with Carter . Carter with no low post player will never win a le. The Nets became a better team after getting Carter.

    The spurs have Duncan . They are not like the Nets. They need a reliable explosive offensive threat to team up with Duncan. Parker is still young and has upside and is a good third option.

    I'd take Carter over Manu any day.

    And the spurs should have targeted Butler right when he entered the league. I said it all along. I knew this guy would become a star and he would be a perfect fit on the spurs who need an athletic 3.

    Have a big guy inside who can block and hit jumpers. Elson would be perfect, but he still cant fit in to the Spurs system consistently.

    the difference of Nets 2002 and 03 to 2007 is that:

    - Kidd was playing the best ball of his career
    - those Nets had a better supporting cast in Kittles, van Horn (02), Mutombo (03). even minor talented players like Macculloch, Harris and Williams were playing the best basketball of their career in those days (see Kidd at his best).

    if we are goin to make a trade, i dont want kidd nowhere near this team

    if it cost us to give away gino or tp in a package, i expect us to make a run at jermain oneal or garnett, thats if we want to win now, but if its long term, we should look at a youung player who is more feasible to be franchise player than tp.

    Could very well happen. Don't know if Sterling wants that salary, though.

    Clippers should get rid of their dumbass coach, trade him to wherever his son is playing (currently Indiana), and find a guy who will start Maggette and keep him happy.

    Had you traded Barry for JR Smith, you would have gotten a UVA steal and you might have been better than the mavs right now... boo incompetent management.

    No, JR Smith wouldn't be getting any playing time. The guy plays 0 defense. And when we were playing well earlier in the season, it was largely due to Brent Barry.

    not like you're playing any defense right now anyways huh ?, specially barry since he's Mr. defender himself lol. So you're saying you'd rather give Finley and Barry time instead of Smith who can shoot just as good as those 2 but provide more athleticism and scoring than finley and barry ?... interesting.

    It's also quite interesting that you're relying on BRENT BARRY to play out of this world, for your team to win games.. hence he's the cornerstone of your franchise right ?

    Edit: boo incompetent management AND fans.

    Barry is a mediocre defender. Your boy plays like an ungraceful matador.

    Armchair GMs.

    Evryone who es about Spurs' FO not doing a trade should understand that there are two teams in a trade. You can't act like your desperate and call each team one month before the deadline. It puts you in a weak situation and you get only crapy offers. The ebst example of that is Sixers with Iverson : Iverson has put them in a weak situation by saying that he wanted to be traded and the result is that they've got garbage for 30ppg player.

    I don't care what anyone says...This team is possibly more than first round fodder, but it's certainly not a championship squad. Let's hope Pop and RC utilize EWill's expiring and whatever trade assets we have to mix things up. This is just frustrating.

    Good call.

    According to three NBA executives, the Pacers are now in talks to move Dunleavy to the Los Angeles Clippers for dynamic swingman Corey Maggette. Indiana has been after Maggette since last season when they were looking to trade Ron Artest.
