I thought you've said Mahinmi sucks?When Mahinmi turns out better than Butler + Scola combined, then y'all will be singing a different tune.
The only thing that can come close to making things right is for the Spurs to be freed-up to sign a decent FA and treat it like it is part of this trade.

So is ing Mahinmi coming over now!? Cause this trade is ing bull .
Dream on.When Mahinmi turns out better than Butler + Scola combined, then y'all will be singing a different tune.
Is there anyone left that could make up for this?The only thing that can come close to making things right is for the Spurs to be freed-up to sign a decent FA and treat it like it is part of this trade.
In Euroleague play, Mahinmi is to Scola as Stromile Swift is to Tim Duncan.When Mahinmi turns out better than Butler + Scola combined, then y'all will be singing a different tune.
But its all good Mahinmi has upside, when he learns how to catch a ball and develop something that resembles a jump shot we will all WITNESS THE IAN.
I just decided this is a two-part trade. The second will bring Shane Battier to the Spurs.
Except they'll send Tony Parker and Manu Ginobili for him.
We just lost some Argie love too.
You don't see the drunk, laughing face, drunk?I thought you've said Mahinmi sucks?
It was a joke.
I wish they would have kept Butler. I don't really care about Scola, but I thought he'd be worth more than a guy that will never play in the league and a future 2nd round pick that they will trade away.
If this is a precursor to a larger sign-and-trade, that's a different story. However, I don't see how it changes the Spurs' ability to sign and trade. They just gave away two of their better assets for cash.
I was under the impression that Scola was never going to come anyway. It's sucks we don't really get anything for him though.
Yeah, he's coming over now.
*Poof*
There went the roster spot the Spurs opened. Hopefully the Rockets at least call Buford in the morning.
Even if Spanoullis stayed in Europe and we voided his contract, we're still 300K over the lux tax.
This was a 600K penalty < 4 million penalty trade.
With Butler gone does this mean Mahinmi will play the next set of summer league games?
That's been my point all along.
After all, the Spurs had to do something if they were to ever make a free agency move.
Everyone pray someone fails a physical!
My bad. This trade is like if you traded me, Deuce and Yogi for a credit card bill.
Not necessary. Houston just pounded the out of R.C. Buford's prostate. Don't worry; it's there, just bruised.
Yao/Butler
Scola/Chuck
Battier/Novak
T-Back/Bonzi
Alston/James
Can you say NBA Champ?
He's injured. It does mean the Spurs should cancel their games in Salt Lake City because they are going to get hammered without their best player.
Sounds like a salary cap move to me..... Butler was not going to get any playing time in a Spurs uniform as well as Scola..... We need a solid small forward to currently back up Bruce Bowen.
M. Pietrus or M. Barnes from Golden State would fit the bill. As for Ian coming in, I am all for... Young, athletic, and versatile
The Rockets lacked scoring ... especially at the power forward position and behind Yao. The Spurs gave it to the Rockets for a second round pick.
And with Yao being 8 feet tall, Scola's size won't matter.
