latest news:
H.E.B is reportedly offering Splitter endorsement money for $4 million if he will play for the spurs.

This can't be for real....

ADULT VIDEO is offering a 10% discount.

make it 50% and i think hes in.

screw it, give him the whole GD store and throw in the cities finest hookers and blow.

Just the fact that you're comparing him to our scrubb-ass, can't jump over a phone book center that everyone acknowledges needs replacing speaks volumes. Fabricio is five years older and played Scola's ass to a draw. Ask David West if he isn't a tough hombre, too.

I'm comparing him with our center because that's where he would end up playing. In our team it's always TD + somebody else. That's where Splitter would play, and that's where Bonner, who got the money we could have used for Scola, plays.

And in case you forgot already, we switched Duncan over to David West for Games 6 & 7 after he embarrased Oberto and KT with 30 or so points in Game 5.

[ElNono]

please stop making this into a scola thread!
it's about scola 2.0!

Sorry. Like I said earlier, if we're so desperate to improve our TD sidekick, it sure looks like we're not trying hard enough...
Any news if Pop is in Spain already?

The Spurs team that had both Robinson and Duncan on it at the same time was a well oiled machine. Ever since then, it hasn't been quite the same. I think that was one of the best teams of all time.

Now the Spurs search for that elusive big man to replace Robinson but since that time, you've had Nazr, Elson, Oberto and now Splitter to be that replacement. Not quite the same.

Yeah they only have won 2 more since Robinson and Duncan were together.

They've struggled so much.


Get the out of here.

[Indazone]

haha..totally missed the point. yeah they won 2 more but they were nowhere near as dominant as that origianl team with Duncan/Robinson.

In 05 they went 16 and 7
Uh, they went 16 and 4 in 07.

in 03 they went 16 and 8.

Wanna rethink that again genius?

Part of the reason is that good coaches, like PJ, will immediately expose your offensive weakness and use it against you. Kurt Thomas looked good when he was able to drain his jumper. But he's not consistant or athletic enough, so he fouls a lot.
The thing is, we're already playing 5 on 4 offensively when Bowen has to be out there. Givng up two is too much.

Spurs 2003 Record 60-22 record
Spurs 2005 Record 63-19 record
Spurs 2007 Record 58-24 record

However my opinion and you are welcome to yours that the Duncan/Robinson team was better than the 05 and 07 teams.

Guys TAU has just won the league ACB le...

[mystargtr34]

No shiite

[kobyz]

maybe the spurs can give TAU 2 players from Austin for giving up on Splitter

[mystargtr34]

Send DerMarr

[tav1]

I hope Splitter is a room with Pop right, Pop giving him that "don't piss me off" stare.

[Ocotillo]

Any news if Pop is in Spain already?

Naw, he doesn't like Spanish wine that much, he's in France using Batum as an excuse to get some French wine.

[mystargtr34]

I had a dream last night

Splitter
Duncan
Bowen
Smith/Manu
Parker

[MoSpur]

So is it official? Splitter signed an extension with Tau?

[mystargtr34]

Nope its not official.

The offer is on the table, and they said a decision was to made after the ACB Final series with Barcelona was over, which it is.

So any time now..... its up to Tiago.

I hear Tiago requested 50 Euros for each rep for the camera.

Yes, and he agreed to nude photos upfront but backed out at the last minute.
