James Anderson wants to leave spurs

[Darkwaters]

Anderson can probably be traded in one to one trades with a team that has no time or options to play or develop some players in the roster.
Considering our needing of a big, Washington could be an ideal candidate for a trade.
They have 7 p'layers that could possibly play pf and some of them are probably tradeble.

Seraphin (my favourite)
Vesely (out of favor in Was, maybe still too valueable to be traded)
Booker (probably just playing for enhancing his market value)
Singleton (other good defensive player that could be a good fit in our system)

Others names are Lewis, Blatche, Turiaf that are tradeble only if we add some players.
Of these three, the only one I would touch is Turiaf...and, however, the contracts of the other two are too difficult to match without giving up something we can't afford to trade.

I like some of those names to be sure.

Seraphin would be an intriguing pick-up. As a second year player hes got some limited NBA experience, but is still on a cheap contract for a while. Hes listed as a PF mostly because of his size (6'9) but he really plays like a center. Not a ton of offense, but hes putting up great numbers in limited minutes. Playing 13 MPG hes averaging 1.1 blocks and nearly 4 rebounds. Might not fit the system as well as others, but he'd be a nice pick-up.

Singleton is also an interesting prospect. Hes a combo forward that can shoot the 3. Although, his FG% is horrible on all accounts, that might have to do with just being in Washington. He plays almost 20MPG and has started 18 games this year. Also, hes a rookie - so it's a fair guess that Washington might want a longer look before parting ways. Not sure if hes really available - at least not for scraps.

Booker, at 6'8, is a little small for the PF maybe. Another 2nd year player, hes playing about 20MPG for the Wiz and has started 15 games for them. His shooting numbers are a lot more enticing that Singleton's though, however, he doesn't shoot the 3 ball at all. Really though, his rebounding and scoring numbers are respectable considering his minutes. But I just don't know enough about the player to comment beyond that.

Vesely is a virtual unknown. Hes a Euro rookie that has played 26 largely unflattering NBA games at about 15 minutes per. The stat that pops at me the most is his 36% free throw percentage. I assume thats a result of an incredibly poor showing on an extremely low number of attempts. But still, thats the worst I've ever seen. Basically, his numbers are nothing to write home about. Oddly, hes started 5 games. But I guess that's just the Washington Wizards for you. Hes tall though, at 6'11.

Edit: Checked Vesely's free throws. 7-19 on the season.

Anderson has no trade value . . .

Because he's like a s on the beach . . .

Come summertime, you can just reach down and pick him up.

I like how everyone is working on finding a trade that takes on Jefferson. I would be very surprised if someone would take him off the Spurs' hands. I doubt it would ever happen.
