Time to send the scouts deep into the Congo... got to be some big Mutombo dudes still in the bush. (not being racist just funny like that movie so chill).
SPURS tell Isiah Thomas, Rasho is a forward and he will make the trade![]()

Hasn't R Evans just signed a new contract last season?
I like Reggie Evans' hustle but his offense is even worse then Rasho's. So no thanks. We need a big that can get 10 points fairly often not every 20 games like Rasho does. The can't afford to have two players starting and playing heavy minutes that are liabilities on offense.
Reggie Evans could work.
Drew Gooden DEFINATELY would work.
Id do a Beno+Nazr/Oberto/Rasho deal.
I think Ferry is high on Beno, back up point to help out at that position, and a semi defensive big to go next to big Z wich they have been lacking.
Rasho would be perfect for them, but it wont happen.
Nazr Mohammed got about 6 to 8 points last year.. The can't afford to have two players starting and playing heavy minutes that are liabilities on offense.
Evans can do that on garbage points and putbacks.
Offense is overrated...
Aside from creating the slowest frontcourt tandem in NBA history, I don't see much use for Rasho in Cleveland.I think Ferry is high on Beno, back up point to help out at that position, and a semi defensive big to go next to big Z wich they have been lacking.
Rasho would be perfect for them, but it wont happen.
I don't see many players coming from you Chump.....
Realistically, there aren't many players the Spurs can trade for outside a three way. I posted a picture anyway and named him in another thread. What more do you want?
If we are talking realistic, straight-up trades, you're looking at guys like Olowokandi and Kelvin Cato. Whoopie.
So, you're OK with Duncan for Wilcox?
Reggie Evans would be a nice backup to rebound, play a bit of D and generally act like a tough guy on the court. Starting, along with Bowen though? No thanks, I'd prefer to get someone who can score 10-12ppg to take the pressure off of TD, TP and Manu (i realise finding a 10ppg big man who rebounds and plays D is impossible).
I still think the Spurs would be ok if they started Nazr and let him work his way through his troubles, but I just can't see Pop doing that.
"Nazr and let him work his way through his troubles"
I just can't see Nazr doing that.
8th year in the NBA, Nazr is what he is.
5 or 6 weeks of more PT isn't going to change him.
Nazr would foul out in 15 minutes. LOL. seriously though he picks up fouls way too quickly.
Realisticly....................................... ..........................So, you're OK with Duncan for Wilcox?
Really? You can see the future?8th year in the NBA, Nazr is what he is.

You automatically assume the negative, that's easy to do because when you are proved wrong you can be happy because you support the team. If the negative does come true, then you are happy because you predicted it.
Weak.
Youve figured him out.
Negative to the point of happy when hes right, but happy when hes wrong.
BUt when wrong, will tell you he was right in "theory"
strange duck...
I suppose next Tim joins the Scientologists?
What a shock.![]()
Him and Tom Cruise on TV calling Brooke Shields "re ed" probobly is next as well.
"You can see the future"
7 years of the NBA past has produced what Nazr is now.
That long past is the best predictor of the future.
Do you think more PT between now the 1 Apr is going
to make his hands better,
his crashing the defensive board better,
his missed defensive rotations disappear,
his matador's refusal to accept responsibility for the the paint and to step forward to pick up drivers be converted into aggression,
his inane blocked pump fakes go away (one of his FADEAWAYS was block last night),
his low basketall IQ to rise up to "normal" ?
What exactly, specifically do you think more PT will accomplish for a 7-year veteran with the above deficiencies?
Thanks, Im here all week.
Hey Shoog, getting ready to start a "advice" thread for myself in the Club, would be happy if you gave some, youve always seemed like a very intelligent fellow on here, and in person with others!
The fact of the matter, which I bet everyone will agree to, is this: the Spurs have two centers who are both sometimes servicable but also incomplete. Either one is capable of stinking out the joint, but they are also capable of at least being a live body for 25-30 minutes a night.
Very few people will argue that the one or the other is the full-time answer. However, Rasho is more the "known" commodity, which is this case is not a positive. We know he's never going to be a 10pts/8 reb guy. Nazr may never be, either, but in the absence of a trade, I think their best chance for getting any improvement at the position is to throw Nazr out there for 30 minutes a night for the next 4-5 games and see what he does. The Spurs are playing for the postseason, not the regular season.
Yes, it will improve becaue he will become more familiar with the way Tony, Manu, Tim etc pass the ball to him. Repe ion will help his hands improve.Do you think more PT between now the 1 Apr is going
to make his hands better,
Possibly. Learning the defensive system better, which will only happen with extended playing time, may lead him to be in better positions to work the defensive boards.his crashing the defensive board better,
Yep. Once again, familiararity with the system will improve his defensive rotations. That one was easy.his missed defensive rotations disappear,
Nope, PT will not make this dissapear.his inane blocked pump fakes go away (one of his FADEAWAYS was block last night),
No. But improved rotations, better hands, better understanding of the defensive system and you will more than likely not classify him as a player with a low IQ anymore.his low basketall IQ to rise up to "normal" ?
All of this is dependent on Nazr working hard of course. No reason to believe he wouldn't work his butt off if given minutes.
nazr+barry to bulls for deng and filler
orbs+beno+rasho to pacers for artest
