yeah,Coze your French mind tells you Ian will be better tham scola in the NBA,right?
What part of Jackie Butler takes up a roster spot and is not going to get on the court, don't you get?
And why in the are you worried about Jackie ing Butler?
Scola was gone if the Spurs didn't move him...gone for good, for nothing.
There's nothing wrong with a couple suspensions and the greatest playoff upset in NBA history to help you win a le...
Sincerely, the 2007 NBA Champions.
It seems like the Spurs and Spurs fans are overestimating what happened last season. Sure, every le team has a few breaks, but that doesn't mean you can start helping out charity cases like the Rockets.
You also don't up your own roster by trying to hoarde bags you have no intention of playing...because you are worried about a team whose stars annually miss 50 games per season...

"Rumors have surfaced, that the San Antonio Spurs have offered him a 3-year, $12 million contract, and he is close to signing."
Those numbers can't be true, right experts?
the only angryness i can understand is based upon this rivalry...
but cleveland was a better option for the "winning a le" purpose?
Scola's rights had to be moved to get rid of Butler without getting another bag that isn't even eligible for the D-league.
Sloth...you advocate sloth.
Yeah, that's been around for a couple of days.
I advocate not giving a playoff team in your division that took your conference finals opponent to 7 games the gift of a starting power forward and a backup center. Fairly clear, I would think.
Yeah sure so because i'm french i think TP<Manu and Mahinmi<Scola...yeah,Coze your French mind tells you Ian will be better tham scola in the NBA,right?
if this is all you have found you'd prolly have to find an other french, homer.
Ian isn't worth even playing with the toros. If you have time to write such BS. just look at my post history.
timvp and MB are still hearing Hakeem's footsteps in their sleep...old fears die hard. That's about 70% of their issue here...that, and because the Spurs turned down Nocioni and a #1 pick for Scola and Bulter because they wanted to throw the Rockets the le.
Jackie Butler is not their freaking back up C...get that through you ing skull.
Did you watch Butler play?
They gave up Scola...and cleared a roster spot...so they can sign someone to help them defend guys like TMac...
the spurs just dealt with the team that was willing to take the gamble on Butler.plain and simple.
the spurs didn´t want butler,eather the Bulls,cavs,etc.
The rockets took the gamble on Butler,maybe they really believe Scola can make them better,for next season and the near future of their franchise.
JB will basically never play (hope for Houston) so Scola is basically costing them 6M/year
John Lopez was the beat writer for the Spurs back in the days of the San Antonio Light. He left and went to the Chronicle at some point before the paper was merged with the Sxpress-News.
IF it's all about the money...and I agree it is to an extent, but it's also about getting guys in that they hope to use...hopefully this season...
Why are Barry and Beno still here?
What are the Spurs waiting on...that's the big salary dump.
Got to be another guard and SF on the horizon...
You guys say Vaginis aint coming...and you probably are right, but have they bought him out yet? Why not? I think they will make a token effort to get him to come over...
It's To save money you say?
I say part of it...it's an option.
The other part is so they can move Beno and Barry....because if he comes, that can also be an option.
I just don't think the Spurs are done yet...
If they are trying to improve, they still have moves to make...
If they are trying to save $$$, they still have moves to make.
And unlike timvp and MB...I believe the Spurs are capable of doing both...that's what makes them the Spurs.
That's why they let two HOF caliber centers go last year and replaced them with scrubs...and were a better team and won a le this season...with a smaller payroll.
Well it's good that we finally got that settled
For all you guys know Magette is wating in the wings for Beno and Barry, if Vaginis somehow changes his tune...and since his problems originally were with Van Gundy...
I'm not saying that's the plan...but it could certainly be an option....I think the Spurs tend to have more than one option on the moves they make.
whottt - I don't think you understand anything about this trade. This trade gets significantly worse (if possible) if Spanoulis is brought over.
What effective NBA player does Scola remind anyone of? Maybe a poor man's Shareef Abdur Rahim?
need not worry trust your spurs
Not if you move Barry and Beno...
And I don't think you understand Pop...
Pop does not like Beno.
Pop does not like Barry.
How often do guys Pop doesn't like stay on his roster? Especially at payroll trimming time?
What kept the Spurs from moving the both of them last season?
Not having another PG.
Figure it out.
I don't care if you think $$$...I don't care if you think improvement...the end result leads you to the same conclusion.
When was the last time two guys on multi year deals that were in Pop's doghouse finished their careers with the Spurs?
Use your own logic...
The Spurs basically gave a le to the Rockets to save money, so they wouldn't be paying guys not to do ...and so they could get something rather than nothing.
Why wouldn't that same logic apply to Barry Beno? And in particular Barry's big ass contract?
IF the Spurs moved Butler and Scola so they wouldn't be paying guys they didn't use...why stop there? And Pop dislikes Barry and Beno much more than he disliked Butler...
Butler actually was trying to improve and he was cheaper.
I don't know that Vaginis is coming over...I just know Pop wants to dump Barry and Beno...the Spurs financially want to dump them...they probably would like to get something in return for them...and they need a back up PG and SF.
I'm just saying...I don't think the Spurs are done yet. Apply your own logic...you'll reach the same conclusion.
Doesn't matter. If Spanolousususus comes over then the Spurs give up the cash from that trade. And dare I say Barry would be better than him.
Actually he's a lot like Tim Duncan...minus the defense, rebounding, poise, team first at ude, media saavy, and NBA ahtletic ability...
More like a Varejao or Gooden, but with a better post game.
What's the worst case scenario? Pop doesn't play him? And that's different from Beno how?
At least Pop gets a fresh face to break down...and Vaginis will probably be a lot more entertaining to do that too than Beno was.
SCOLA was sent to houston to insure that the mavericks won't get out of the first round AGAIN!
