The Boston Globe: "Stoudamire expected to sign with Spurs"

[AFBlue]

FYI he clears waivers in 4 minutes....

Good luck Spurs fans

Good luck with that first round opponent and your superstar not wearing a dress at the same time.

Right? That's going to be humorous. I even think JET vs Damon will be humorous.

Good luck Spurs fans.

Oh my God, Devin Harris will score 40 I bet.

Isn't Damon Stoudamire the one who famously said that no team with Avery Johnson as the point guard would ever win a le?

Exactly what someone else said; "Who gives a ?"
Mike Finley pushed Bruce down in a game in 04 and called him a dirty player and look what happened.

Damon is a solid player who is better than any alternatives the Spurs have right now. Plain and simple. I don't see any miracle trades happening and unless Tim reverts back into 2000-2003 forum and Pop gives Manu 35+ minutes per the Spurs are going to be hurting until if and when Tony gets back.

I would have liked Cassell or even Boykins more but I'll take Stoudamire. The alternative would be Pop flying to Cancun and begging Nick Van Exel to come out of retirement.

Boykins over Stoudamire? You're nuts.






And I can't believe we're even having this conversation.

[TwoHandJam]

I would have preferred Cassell too.

Then we would truly be pushing the envelope of the oldest team ever in all major sports.

[Louie Vega]

Does he still have it?

good...I am glad. Was Vaugh supposed to play all 48 minutes because he is pretty much the only true pg this team has right now.

yeah, it's always better than nothing.

I guess it's not that bad. I don't really care for Stoudamire, but he's just an NBA player, way better than Vaughn in ability (though that doesn't really say too much) I guess it's okay to have him coming along to help us.
I'm just hoping he doesn't suck or fails to deliver in his spot minutes. We Spurs fans are already hard on players we like and love...I guess if he stinks, Pop could always just bench him.

Mike Finley pushed Bruce down in a game in 04 and called him a dirty player and look what happened.

Eh, that doesn't really count. Bowen had the reputation, and bugs the out of players, it was in the heat of the moment. And Michael Finley was a likeable dude on the Mavs.

Damon is a solid player who is better than any alternatives the Spurs have right now. Plain and simple.

Yeah, it's just business.
The only time I cringed about a trade rumor/signing with the Spurs was during the rumors about Karl Malone wanting to sign with us after the 2004 Laker implosion.
