Trade Deadline Deals and Rumors

[cd98]

Pop ing around with others

Sounds like someone is copying and pasting all the trade machine posts from Spurstalk and sending those offers to other teams.

Get rid of Bonner/Blair/Neal, trade for Mbah or JJ or picks or cash or meals, whatever, just get rid of them!!!!!!!!!!!!

So far, Spurs don't have a deal in place for expiring contract of DeJuan Blair, league sources tell Y! Trade deadline is 3 PM ET.

For a normally discreet and tactful organisation, the Spurs have been quoted in rumours way too much close to this trade deadline.

Spurs must still be demanding a 1st rounder. Either that or any other team that wants him is waiting for other trades to go down first.

Portland asking for a 1st round pick for JJ Hickson and finding no takers so far.

They wanted augustin last year too, he would be a good get. I guess the lakers like longhorns.

True.. "mentioned". Even that is odd. It wasn't so much in the previous years. I suppose since their heist last season of Jackson plus the later post-waiver deal of Diaw has made them a target for rumour mongering.

I thought they were going to take the best offer if nothing else came up, at least that's what was reported. (Though I'm skeptical of any trade rumors for us) Probably right with the 2nd part, teams waiting for the first domino to fall

My theory has always been that agents account for most of these rumors. The best way to attract interest to their clients is to suggest that the Spur FO has interest. It's the recognized seal of approval.

I really wish Blair and Neal would be moved for just about any vaguely decent back-up PG and back-up SF.

I don't really care who the Spurs would get, it's all about preventing Pop from overplaying them come playoffs time.

[Mel_13]

The past three postseasons say there's no danger of overplaying Blair.

[letmk]

I think Spurs are in more need of a Ridnour than a Re .

Would happily trade our 1st + Bonner for Hickson

Wow that's horrible.

[timtonymanu]

They're probably tanking now and he's a free agent this summer so they don't want to have to lose him for nothing.

[ThePop]

Wow that's horrible.
