    I know most of you guys are going to jump my ass on this one, but hear it out.

    What are your thoughts on trying to trade TP now, for a good quality young big man?

    I dont have any faith that TP is going to stick with the spurs for the long haul. i have a feeling he will jump ship as soon as it works out. With George hill coming up and being a quality guard, why not attempt to dump TP for a consistent, hopefully young, center with a back up PG attached to the deal?

    I dont pay attn to salary caps and what not, but what i would envision is something like TP for Bynum and a scrub guard, or something along those lines.

    I know TP is a mad scorer, and is integral to our team, but this would be more of a long term deal, i think George Hill can be our guy for the future, and we can finally get a presence at the 5 spot to push us over the top.

    I dunno...just a thought. I think TP's "hottness" could really fetch us the guy we need in the middle, without sacraficing too much.

    Who would your prospects be, how much do they currently make, and would their teams be willing to give them up for Parker?

    You are giving up arguably our 1st option on offense for a young center?
    It is indeed ridiculous. We want nothing to do with Andrew "Once I get my contract, I am gonna suck ass" Bynum and Jordan "I suck at defense" Farmer.
    Parker is also reaching his prime.

    Oh ya, another thing to note, most good centers are old. Either that, they are young, see Kaman and Howard, but we can't get them.

    Offer me Greg Oden, then let's start talking.

    The Spurs would have to buy the Lakers organization or get a "friend" to buy the club in order to get Bynum. Not that Bynum is that good it's that Jim Buss, Jerry's son, has staked his entire career as a Lakers executive on Bynum. Jim has battled with Phil Jackson, and to a certain extent Jennie Buss, pretty much the entire Lakers organization about drafting and keeping Bynum. He's not going anywhere as long as the Buss's own the Lakers it seems.

    If I am correct, Bynum gets like 14 million next year for what it is worth. That sucks for Jim Buss.

    Actually his "daddy" pays the bills. We might not see too much of Jerry Buss on "High Stakes Poker" once he starts paying all those salaries plus the luxury tax.

    Bynum has been a real tool this year. He starts the year off by demanding a max contract extension while only putting up journey man center stats, even by today's centerless NBA standards, then he starts to complain about EVERYTHING. Bynum has been complaining about every call, not getting the ball enough, not getting enough minutes and he's basically isolating himself from the rest of the team. Not a good way to start off with his new contract.

    He is actually playing well for his minutes, now cut down the fouls and you see excellent production.

    Hill isnt good enough to take over this team. Not sure he will ever take over any team. There are not many point guards out there who can come in a play at the level of the NBA. Im not dogging Hill, he is what the FO has been looking for. And thats nothing more then a backup point guard who can play defense. And even in that he isnt a true point guard. I dont think Hill will fully come around for about 2 more seasons. Without TP this team would fall apart. This is your roster, Hill,Roger,who knows,Timmy and Bynum? That team would fail quickly imo. For the remainder of this season. And for many seasons to come. And as for now lets be real for the last time this year. We dont have a Big 3 anymore. We have a Big 2. TP and TD are the team. And Pop puts the rest of the pieces together on a game to game basis. Hopefully Manu will come around and play like he did last season before the end when he got hurt. As for now he looks like just another shooter with good ball handling skills. If we plan on making noise come PO time imo. We're gonna need more then just TP driving into the lanes and making layups.

    dude cliff notes biatches

    you cant judge hills game just cause his playin bench minutes atm and cant contribute atm like the stats he was posting when parker was out injured. I say you give him starters minutes in the presence of parker on the bench and see what he can do or provide, cause it seems like since parker is back hill has been playin with the bench on the court......

    actually - just an adequate athletic big will do (Ian hopefully.) our current bigs play smart defense and work well within our system, but they're not really a threat to block layups or extend out the defense to guard against jump shooters.
