    Off topic (almost) .. I met Nazr's wife, daughter, and new baby boy last night and her health is fine now. Their baby Nasir is 3 weeks old and very cute.

    kori likes to rub in the fact that she's media and gets to personally meet every spur on an almost daily basis

    Nice.

    This usually means I'm right.

    Sincerely,

    Spurs will start 10-10.
    Spurs will waive Ron Mercer.
    Spurs will bench Manu.
    Rasho will be a bust.
    Spurs should sign Haslem.
    Spurs will try to trade Beno.
    ...and more.

    loads of people said those same things and are saying those same things though

    That anti semite.


    FIRE POP NOW!!!!
    Typically, anti-semitic (Semite -derived from Shem, one of Noah's 3 sons) refers to Jews/Hebrews.

    Arabs roots are typically tied to Ham (another of Noah's sons) although it is said the Arabic language has some ties to Shemites as well as Hamites.

    Nah, Spurs are gonna let Nazr walk next summer. His value to the Spurs was first and foremost getting rid of the long term liability that was Rose's contract. If they can find a taker for Radoslav he will be gone as well. The Spurs have Oberto to start and his price is dirt cheap. They have Horry to be their primary reserve big for this season and the next. Then next summer or the summer thereafter they can bring in Scola at a cheap price as well (or Javtokas, for that matter) to be the 4th big.

    Relying on horry for a regular season primary reserve is a stupid move though. the main reason he kicked so much ass last playoffs was cuz he was fresh as possible.

    What does this have to do with anything?

    Go pleasure yourself to a San Antonio manhole.
    You're the one saying the Spurs machine used Nazr's family problems to kick him out the rotation.

    You're trying to find a forest fire where there isn't one.

    BS. Nazr probably told them he wants a new deal and they're pissed. Why not start Rasho? See if that limp can perform and then trade his ass.

    Seem smart to me.

    Nazr is not in the dog house.

    No.

    But a team isn't going to throw Dampier money at Nazr if Nazr just performs well in March, April and the playoffs. But if Nazr averages 10, 10 and 2 this season, he's a very rich ex-Spur at the end of the season.
    See: James, Jerome.

    No amount of devaluation will put him beyond the reach of Isaiah Thomas.

    I kind of agree with Timvp, I was suprised that Nazr, didn't get any PT untill the 3rd. And with his mintues, I'm leaning towards that Pop wasn't happy with his production.

    The Spurs spent training camp going back to basics and starting from stractch and Nazr's shortcomings are most apparent here. He does not have good fundamentals nor a good feel for the game. I tried to tell people that a training camp would NOT fix Nazr's problems, and the Spurs knew this even before he left to be with his wife. Nazr had the chance this summer to prove he deserved a long-term deal with the Spurs and he plain and simply did not do it. Pop is VERY frustrated with Nazr and his inablity to get where he is supposed to be and go where he should go on the court. He was here for 4 months last season and Oberto already has a lot down better than Nazr does. Also, let me tell you. Pop is not grooming Oberto to be the starting center. He is grooming Oberto to replace HORRY. Mark my words. He is a guy Pop feels can play in the crunch and along Tim late in games, but he will not be strong enough defensively to start.

    Whether people want to believe it or not, Rasho is simply outplaying Nazr. Pop even mentioned in his show this week that people may not remember but Rasho was the starter last season until he got hurt. Also, the Spurs are pleased with the way Rasho handled everything last season and with the way he came prepared for camp-- with the right balance of fighting for his job back with putting the team first.

    As others on the forum have mentioned, I don't think "clouding" Nazr's value by not playing him consistently until March or whatever makes much sense. Bigs in this league who are around Nazr's talent level are going to get overpriced offers. Lesser players (see James, Jerome and Foyle, Adonal) have already proven this.

    Not to mention the risk Pop would be taking in just assuming Nazr could be fast tracked into playoff shape when he needed him to be after fooling with his minutes all season. Even if Pop were to do this, do you honestly think no team would offer Nazr big money if his season stats were mediocre but he tore it up in the playoffs and owns two rings? Teams might make him exorbitant offers just to rob the Spurs of a piece of the championship puzzle.

    Doesn't wash.

    If the Spurs didn't have a history of attempting to put players in a bad light I might agree. This didn't start with Rose. He was in fact the latest victim, well, before Nazr and his sick wife.

    I said this after the first or second game of the season when Mercer was averaging double figures. Every Spurs fan was ready to name him 6th man of the year.

    Thus the beauty.
