Point is this offseason looks like it's gonna suck.
I still say this offseason isnt anywhere close to being over..there are REALISTIC options we can make to IMPROVE.....yes spurs can go out and sign a cheap big and call it a summer but it wont make the spurs improve one bit....to improve i say spurs should go after jeffries or wells for the whole midlevel....sign a point guard for the minimum...(jaque vaughn)...then use barry and scola's rights to bring in a center...( dan gadzuric)...but when i say trade barry....we need to be realistic about his value...theres no way teams would trade magloire or dalembert or tyson chandler over here for barry/ oberto and scola's rights
Parker
Manu
Bowen
Tim
Gadzuric
Beno
Finley
Wells
Horry/Bonner/ Oberto
JAvtokas
Wells is looking for around 8M, not the MLE.
well with hornets and hawks bulls using their cap space...wells wont get 8 million but he can get 6 mil wit the spurs and win back to back les
he HAD a game?
The Hawks have tons of capspace. They had over 18M and they only signed Speedy.well with hornets and hawks bulls using their cap space...wells wont get 8 million but he can get 6 mil wit the spurs and win back to back les
I understand Bonzi is contemplating offers from six teams already.
Donta Smith is available...
lol hawks have childress josh smith ...just signed joe johnson to huge contract last year....and have marvin williams...all at the 3 and 2....BONZI's position....pistons..who were rumored to be in the bonzi' sweeptakes..one of the frontrunners may i add**....could only offer the midlevel...so obviously its somewhat realistic....hawks wouldnt go after bonzi and they are pretty much the only team to "show bonzi the money"
All I'm saying is that 5.4M is probably not going to cut it for Bonzi. He wants to get paid. You said that the Hawks don't have cap space. You are the one that brought them up. I'm just pointing out that they do.
Bonzi will probably stay in Sac or go to the Pacers in a sign-and-trade.
Supposedly Charlotte has interest in him too. And they have cap space as well.
I guess the Spurs should give it a try. It won't hurt to try to get one of these FA's.

im jus sayin if spurs want to improve...thats what they can do.....standin pat and signin a trash big man wont improve our team one freakin bit....our veterans will jus be a year older....a year more of wear and tear on the body....if spurs wanna be on top they need to use our midlevel to improve ....not stand pat
5.4mill in texas > 7.5-5mill in watever state that has income taxes
what are the costs of livin standards etc....??
spurs dont need to stand pat ....and sign a trash center for 2 million....and wait to see what the future holds....the FUTURE is now......tim is gettin ready to be 31...manu is goin to be 30.....we need to make moves to WIN NOW....if that means tradin for a center that makes 5 million( league avg.).for 20 years..then im all for it....if it means we improve to go on to win our 3rd le in 5 years and perhaps 4 in 6...

after these next 3 years....we wont see another time we have 3 bonified stars on the same team playin in their prime....so im all for anything that will improve the team
Amen but sadly our front office doesnt give a !
I hope I am wrong on this but this offseason has been ing pathetic and I am growing less confidence in them as the days pass by. Well at least I got to watch them win 3 les and (maybe if they ing do something!!) I might be alive to watch them win their 4th. Oh well .......
how about sign n trade for this center from the hawks, here is his profile on hoopshype
John Edwards currently earnin 1,080,000
Very good size... Very unproven... Has done nothing remarkable in college or the NBA.
so if a scrub like him can earn 1mill, why waste money on scrub centers in league to fill our need, why not just save it or spend it scola or sumcrap, look for a long 3 or is Williams filling that spot for this year only and we look next draft for 2 positions that needs to be filled.
God I wish I was 7 feet tall.how about sign n trade for this center from the hawks, here is his profile on hoopshype

we shouldnt waste our midlevel on a trash big...ive beat the horse to death...i say we use the midlevel and offer bonzi or jeffries 5 year deals worth 30 million...sign pg jacque vaugn to the vet minimum...and bring along javtokas...call it a summer..and get another center via a trade with barry and " scola's rights"

Shaggy said: "Amen but sadly our front office doesnt give a ! "
See, this is where you get ridiculous and inflamatory. The front office of the best franchise in all pro-sports in the last 8 yrs doesn't give a . Mmmmm, okay, that makes so much sense.
Of course they give a , but you know what, they are being smart.
They are NOT rushing to throw money at very average players in a down FA yr.
They are NOT throwing money at fragile players.
They are NOT making changes for the sake of changes.
They are NOT hamstringing our cap for next year when there are some guys out there we might really want.
Really, all we need right now is a serviceable big man and we will contend again, and if the team isn't firing by January there will be some movement, I'm sure.
Parker - Beno - ?
Manu - Finley - Barry
Bowen - Williams - (Barry)
Duncan - Bonner - Horry
? - Javtokas - Oberto
, put Kelvin Cato and any of a number of 3rd PGs in there and I think we contend again without blowing the cap or wasting our money on average players with a history of fragility.
Trade Barry/Scola's rights for an upgrade or two and we look pretty strong.
I have a feeling both Beno and Javtokas will surprise this year, and Williams will be a very pleasant surprise for anyone who doesn't remember how good he was for Jersey before the VC trade.
And then you have to remember it's July fer christsake! Moves will be made, have some patience.
The problem with some fans during silly season (ie. now) is that they crave INSTANT GRATIFICATION over LONG-TERM STRATEGY.
Actually, that's one of the major problems with the world in general.
Memo to all those panicking right now - SUCK IT UP AND HAVE SOME PATIENCE. If the moves (or lack of moves) we make is disappointing at a later date, have a whinge and I'll join in, but pretending that our front office is clueless and careless is simply insulting to anyone with a grain of intelligence, and certainly to RC and Sam who've done a pretty decent job up to this point, haven't they?
OTOH, if they don't spend for purely financial reasons as timvp has alleged they may not, we should all protest. But the time for deciding on that is not now, it is later.
the only solution now for the spurs management to do is debit my bank account the MLE hahhahaha
ya lets save our money and cap space so when tim and manu are 32 and 33 we can at least contend by signin a free agent worth 7 milion...AND FOR THAT REASON spurs should just wait and just sign a bunch of scrag trash players for CHEAP...around our big three (when they have three more years left of all being in their prime at the same time)...and lets end up contending for home court for round 1 of the playoffs and losing because of our lack of versatility..but hey in the end its saving us MONEY for FUTURE RIGHT??!!!.
..what future....75 percent of our payroll will be off the books in 2010-2011....thats enough of cap space dont ya think....till then i say go all out with avg. 5 million dollar deals that runs til then...
WE dont need to settle using our valuable mLE for a freakin soft weak TRASH BIG...go out and get the best player left in free agency offer 5 year 30 million ...sign javtokas....jacque vaughn...and look to trade barry scola for gadzuric or jeff foster as our big..they all are much better than anything thats left of bigs in FA
