He's a long 6'3", faster and plays better D than Beno.
Keyon Dooling is 6'3". That's PG sized. He also sucks.

Foster's not bad either...I was under the impression that he's under contract though for some reason.
other possibilities Juan Dixon, Delonte West both are tough
He signed a 6 year, $30M extension in 2002. He's a free agent after 2009, which also doesn't comply with the Spurs parameters.
Still, Barry for Foster works as a straight-up deal.
That would be a nice trade.
With a sweetner, they just might bite -- it would actually seem to address needs going in both directions and might actually make both teams slightly better.That would be a nice trade.
I'm skeptical that it would ever come to pass because: (1) the Spurs just invested a bunch of money in center-types; (2) I'm not sure Indiana wants to give up Foster; (3) Foster's contract is too long for a team with a 2008 plan; and (4) it might actually make some sense.
Brent Barry for Reggie Evans and DerMarr Johnson
I would faint if we got Evans. That dude can REBOUND.Brent Barry for Reggie Evans and DerMarr Johnson
Evans gets more rebounds than Oberto and Elson combined. Plus he's a better offensive player than either of them. And this year, he's actually started to play good post defense.
I would've said to offer Elson back to Denver, but he probably doesn't make their roster.
Yeah, Ron Mercer was a bust on the Spurs. Oh wait...

true. Jamal Sampson has played great with the minutes he has got. I didnt realise the guy could board so well
That's a pretty low bar for him to reach. You are dreamin'. Dooling sucks.
I think Morris Peterson is our next most likely trade
I honestly don't think the Spurs have anyone on their team outside of the the big three that any team would be interested in.
a-men to that. :PI honestly don't think the Spurs have anyone on their team outside of the the big three that any team would be interested in.

Here's our weekly recap of Oregonlive's Quick Chat hosted by Casey Holdahl. As always this is a paraphrase of the questions and responses. You can listen to the entire chat here.
Q: John Canzano and Chad Ford both say the Blazers should trade Zach...
A: It's easy to say but you have to ask what you could get in return. As a 23 and 10 guy his value should be high, but it would have to be the right fit for another team. He's not a great defender or a good passer and he wants a lot of shots. Only a few teams would see that as a fit. That makes it hard to talk about trading a player of his value. I think trade talks are heating up around the Blazers though. There's a rumor that they're talking to San Antonio trying to get Brent Barry for Joel Przybilla or Jamaal Magloire (the latter of which would involved Eric Williams). The Spurs say they're not interested in that but would like Travis Outlaw to help compensate for the Mavericks' athleticism. They've long been interested in Travis and will probably bid for him in the off-season if they can't get him via trade.
Q: Do the Spurs have anything the Blazers want?
A: Brent Barry! He's a shooter who doesn't demand starters' minutes. They need a role-playing shooter.
Q: He's 35 though.
A: Look what you're giving up for him. Maybe you wouldn't do Travis, but one of the centers...maybe. The Golden State trade was interesting. I thought Mike Dunleavy would have been a nice exchange for Magloire. I think the Blazers were disappointed that the trade went down. Coach McMillan also liked Ike Diogu and wouldn't have minded Dunleavy either. He says as far as he knows nothing is being discussed specifically but he expects the Blazers to be in talks around the trading deadline.

I wouldn't have guessed Travis Outlaw but I guess I can see why. He doesn't rebound well. He can't shoot the 3. But he's a tall SF.
Przybilla with his testicles intact is a pretty good player. He'd be an upgrade as far as rebounding and shot blocking goes. If the Spurs think the missing thing to their defense is shot blocking, Przybilla is one of the best in the league. However, I don't see a trade that works with him. He's BYC and has a trade kicker, so I'm not sure what it'd take.
Magloire doesn't solve anything. He can be decent at times, but he's not a big enough upgrade over what the Spurs have. If the Spurs did it, it'd just be to dump Barry's salary.
Travis Outlaw is a great athlete, especially for a 6-foot-9 player. Problem is he's dumb as a box of rocks and wilts under pressure. I like him in general but not for the Spurs. He's not mentally strong enough to help them anytime soon.
Outlaw barely makes any money. I wonder who else they are thinking of getting with him.
Maybe they have the Ndubi Ebi syndrom with Outlaw ?
I think that he can help us a little. i don't see him playing 30mpg ths year but he can be usefull for 15-20mpg with his length and athletism.
Outlaw + Dixon = Barry?
I'd do it ... but I'd like it better if there was any chance that Dixon could play point guard. Too bad he's like a 6-foot-1 shooting guard.
Outlaw+ au= Barry
Dixon, au and Magloire are the three names that makes more sense to be packages with Outlaw.
Trades that should works:
Barry + pick for au + Outlaw
Barry + pick for Dixon + Outlaw
Barry + Williams + pick for Magloire + Outlaw.
