Look, you will find I am one of the biggest Bargnani supporters (
), but I would like him on the Spurs only in context of what the Spurs have been doing in recent years (Horry, Bonner...). He would be an upgrade over them, but he is in no way my ideal big man next to Tim.
I did not really forget Bargs in my last scenario. I was trying to make the point that Bargs+Calderon - TP+Bonner (because he would be out of the rotation) = a net loss in points more than likely.
If that is the case, I will take the proven leader, scorer and finals MVP + the defense (TP+Bonner are better defensively than Calderon+Bargs). I would like Bargnani on the Spurs for sure, I really think he has a bright future and he is cheap and can improve (he must improve on defense and rebounding, his offense is fine.).
I have an idea of what the Spurs need and there are multiple players that can fulfill the needs. I know for sure that the Spurs trading TP or TD and to a lesser degree Manu does not improve the team. You have to bring pieces in that add to those 3 unless you are going to get an absolute superstar in return. Calderon+Bargs are talented players in their own regards, but not enough for TP.
The key is to try and analyze the situation (talent, salary cap, future...) and it is incredibly complex.
