Rasho > Curry???
David Chancellor (WOAI) talked to Bill Duffy (Rasho's agent) today and confirmed that the Spurs are shopping him around. There was a quote from Duffy saying that it makes sense that they are looking toward Atlanta because the Hawks are in need of a center.
Apparently is a little more than speculation that the Spurs are looking to packaging Rasho and Scola in a deal with the Hawks.
Rasho > Curry???
Rasho's insurance > Curry's insurance
Yes, please.+
What kind of jumpshot does Childress have?
Get the deal done Spurs.
Bring in a long athletic defensive forward that has FUTURE in the NBA.
THe turkish shooter sounds good too.
Childress isn't much of a shooter yet, but he's improving. He puts in the time.
His rebounding for a small forward is great. His defense is above average. He's athletic. I would rate him in the top 5% of small forwards that the Spurs should target.
If Atlanta gets Joe Johnson, this trade makes a lot of sense for both sides. Even if they don't get Johnson, Marvin Williams is probably more of a small forward, meaning that Josh Smith will have to slide to shooting guard. Either way, Childress isn't likely a vital member of that team.
Rasho + Scola for Childress + Akyol + Pick =
alot of rookies do not have good jumpshots
Rasho sitll have $6,720,000 + $7,280,000 + $7,840,000 + $8,400,000 = $30,240,000
Al Harrington only $6,875,000 for next season
What's the deal??
Only the salary for next season has to be close to matching. The total of the contract doesn't matter.Rasho sitll have $6,720,000 + $7,280,000 + $7,840,000 + $8,400,000 = $30,240,000
Al Harrington only $6,875,000 for next season
What's the deal??
maybe spurs do not want al harrington
We can go a step further and say salaries don't even have to match because Atlanta is under the cap -- they could take back much more salary than they would give out -- the Spurs would receive the difference in a trade exception they could use in other deals or let expire to save some money.
Rasho & Scola to Atlanta for Marvin Williams.
Give me another cold one.
True. So my dream deal would be...
Rasho + Scola for Childress + Akyol + Pick + ~$3.5M Trade Exception
Would this hypothetical Childress-Rasho-Scola thing even be possible from a salary cap standpoint?
I doubt Josh Childress makes what Neterovic does......
Since Atlanta is so far UNDER the cap, are there exceptions that could make it work?
Capologists?
Seems like you answered my question as I was typing it.
Thanks
I dont think that would work, considering the Hawks drafted the kid 2nd overall in the NBA draft. I really wouldnt take him anyway because he has only played one year of college ball
but Atlanta needs fexibility to build a new team, Rasho's contract is too long IMO.
hawks would like that contract they would not have to worry about rasho leaving via fa
They need a center more, and Rasho's deal is a pretty fair one made better by the escalation of the salary cap.but Atlanta needs fexibility to build a new team
C Rasho
PF Scola
SF Williams
SG Smith
PG TBD
Not a bad team. If they are thinking about throwing money at Zaza PaWHO?lia, they'd be ecstatic getting Rasho at his price.
Did you notice I included a first round draft pick in that? It's the Hawks, it'll still be a good one.You don't deal Beno. Rasho and Scola's rights for Childress is plenty.
Atlanta isn't going to build a team through FA unless they grossly overpay the going rate. look at this summer, they didn't even get a sniff from most of the guys they targeted (JJohnson not withstanding).but Atlanta needs fexibility to build a new team, Rasho's contract is too long IMO.
Especially in the instance they get JJ, they will have a glut of players at the 2-3 and no front line depth or talent whatsoever.
They have something the Spurs want (long athletic threes) in abundance. The Spurs have something they want (frontcourt talent). It's a perfect fit.
hawks could have jj to
and did not hawks want to offer curry 10 million a year?
Why would we want a good pick?
We don't know how to use good picks!
we are good at crappy ones . . . 25+ . . . and even better at 2nd round pick.
The with a good pick
It's been so long since we had one (good pick). . .
The more I look into Josh Childress, the more I like him. He's 21 and has great size for a small forward. In his rookie year, he got better and better. In February, he averaged 12.5 points and 8.5 rebounds, while shooting 52.1% from the floor, 44.4% from beyond the arc and 88% from the line. In March, those numbers rose to 14.3 points and 7.5 rebounds. In April, he went up to 16.0 points and 7.5 rebounds.
You gotta love a long small forward who can rebound. That would be deadly in the Spurs' system. Factor in his improving outside shot and his good character ... and you have a perfect fit for the Spurs.
Here is what RC said about Akyol.
Akyol just turned 18 and is one of the better prospects of his age group. Getting him plus Childress would be a major steal for the Spurs.In reviewing the foreign players taken in the second round, Buford said he was stunned to see Lithuanian center Martynas Andriuskevicius drop to Orlando at No. 44 before being dealt to Cleveland. He also said he liked Atlanta’s selection of Cenk Akyol of Efes Pilsen in Turkey at No. 59.
Let's just hope the Hawks would bite. It's possible, seeing as the Spurs could offer the Hawks' future starting two bigmen.
