Wow, i hoping we be able to at least trade him for something, sucks. we better get Przybilla, because Oberto and Robert would suck as our centers.
that thought makes me barf.

I'm nowhere near unhappy about Rasho and Nazr gone but given Oberto's foul rate and word that Javtokas is foul prone as well Duncan and Horry better be ready to play a ton of minutes.
Which means they're burned out and/or hurt come playoff time.
Count on it.
ground up diamonds makes his dookie sparkle I guess.
damn why is it always about the $$ with these guys??
Big Ben leaves DET over 2mil a yr??? Althoguh I have to say it's ed that they didn't counter offer.
but you know what I mean .... it's all about the paycheck. WHY?
you would think that once you get past a certain dollar amount that it really wouldn;t effect your day to day standard of living. Is there really somehting out there that they absolutely have to have that they can't afford at this point?
What ever happend to love of the game?
thats why I like Bowen - dude took a payCUT to help out the team.
I think after this year we need to sign Bowen to an extesnsion. I believe this is going to be his 3rd year of a 4 year deal. I say another 4 year deal so he can retire as a Spur and maybe even get his jersey retired.ground up diamonds makes his dookie sparkle I guess.

not to mention Horry is, lets face it, OLD.
a PP mentioned us ing about our centers and now ign that we have none.
true.
but the fact is our centers were not the best. they were not what this team needed nor deserved.
there is a sever lack of talent in the NBA at the 5 and Spurs are feeling it in the nutsack right now.
God I hope we don't spend all our $$ o nthe 1st fairly decent thing we see.... but you knw we will - we are center desperate.
thankyou, agreed.
I wouldn't be suprised to see Ian on the team next season!!! He might surprise everyone!!
Why would pryz come here? I'm dumbfounded. Pryz was the Pistons first choice, Pryz obviously turned them down, so they get Nazr, whom they gave 5y- $30 Mil, they must have offered Pryz at least that or more, which I don't believe the Spurs had any intentions of offering either of them that much.
If I'm correct, was Detroit not over the salary cap? if that's the case, they would not have the MLE to spend on Nazr?
According to ESPN, they spent more than the MLE on Nazr.
Detroit is over the cap. They only had the MLE to spend.
With the backup bigs on the Pistons, it's not a guarantee Nazr will start either.
You don't know that for sure. All you know is a Portland writer with connections knew Joel had an offer from Detroit.Pryz was the Pistons first choice, Pryz obviously turned them down, so they get Nazr, whom they gave 5y- $30 Mil, they must have offered Pryz at least that or more, which I don't believe the Spurs had any intentions of offering either of them that much.
For all we know Detroit called up the agents for both players, said here's the offer, first one to accept it gets it.
Look how much the Spurs appreciated the $10M Rasho gave up to come here.
It's about the $$$ with the owners, as well.
ESPN has wrong numbers... deal is 4-years, $25-million according to Detroit News (Chris McCoskey) and WDFN Radio (Pistons Flagship)
Pop must be talking a lot to his good buddy, Don Nelson these days. Get ready for small ball 24/7.
Well, if Nazr took 4/$25M than maybe Przybilla was not offered the full MLE by Detroit and will return to Portland for it.
Nazr undercut Joel?
i would keep mcdyess on the bench, he provides a nice post/mid range scoring option. i would let nazr start, but definitely not have him finish.
especially ours.
I spoke with the WDFN studio, they believe (and are calling Pistons source to confirm) that Joel's chronic knee problems scared them away in the end...
Wouldn't be surprised if it is a four year contract, with a team option for a fifth, so it could possibly be 5-year, $30 million.
Soo...
lets say we DO get Joel (not tat he;s our savior or anything)
at what % would you say our chances of gettign to the Finals2007 then be??
since I would think that this is a ques. Pryz should also be asking himself when deciding weather or not to sign w/ Spurs.
Follow up to that:
does Pryz go for the better chance at a ring?
or more $$?
