If Finley Leaves

[maddnezz]

You're right, they tank the first half of the year so they have energy the last half.

Fishin!!!

Finley has made enough money in his career, I'm sure that's not one of his incentives.

I think he retires as a Spur and by the way he's playing, I think he has 2 years in him still.

[ChumpDumper]

I don't see Fin's leaving until he retires.

We'll probably try to trade Barry again.

finley's been a gamer in this playoffs. i think the spurs need to start working some youth into the swing rotation. james white is there, if the spurs use one of #28 or 33 on a wing that would be another potential young wing, and of course they could always sign someone (ie pietrus) or trade for one. on the whole, i think barry's done well in this playoffs, but you need some youth in that rotation, imo.

Is the James White I've seen the one everybody else keeps raving about? I don't see it.

I'm not sure that going 28-13 is tanking the first half of the season. Either that, or the Spurs don't really know how to tank very well, since they went 30-11 in the second half.

No way Finley leaves this summer...He has a player option for next season which pays him north of 20 million (Mavs have to pony up 18+), so there is no way he does not exercise that option. He will be back. Horry wants to be back, but I don't want him, we need to get younger. I see us dealing Barry and probably getting Grant Hill to come fill his role for one year at the vet min. We might be players in FA if we are able to to deal some contracts such as beno and barry. I believe ely, bonner, and horry (if we don't bring him back) are off the books.

I love Finley to death but Rashard Lewis would be so, so much better. Anyway, Finley will likely retire if he leaves and we win the le.

[Warlord23]

Holy cow how the did Dampier get that kind of contract? That is a borderline Isaiah-style deal

Edit: never mind. I just saw LaFrentz's contract

1. Let's focus on the le and worry about the off-season when it gets here.

Hear hear!

The off-season means jack squat.

The whole point of going for a championship is to relax when it's over and enjoy being the champ. Let the other 30 non- le-winning teams worry about their offseasons and try to get to where we already are. The Spurs, on the other hand, will be sitting at home polishing their 4 trophies.
