    I was reading where he said the Spurs are interested in him...

    You know, he and Barry formed a pretty good backcourt for a couple of years there...they weren't a serious contender for a le because they had no decent bigs...They were just a limited guard oriented transition team...but they were about as good as a team like that could be. They played very well together including beating us in SA the year we won the le(Barry three pointer to win it)...They also kicked our butts any time Duncan was out of the lineup in the 02 playoffs.

    This back court, I believe, also swept the Lakers in 2001(with a lot of help from Reuben Patterson)...

    You put these two guys in the same back court coming off the bench and they will be capable of holding us in a game against any other teams bench.

    I realize GP's best days are behind him, and we do have Beno...but the Glove doesn't get owned by every one likes he does Parker...I think he's still got something to offer a team...remember, he once got a team to the finals as the best player on his team.

    So why not sign him?

    What if this is why the Spurs haven't signed anyone yet?

    Would Ghost die of exstasy?

    no. He's washed up. He can't guard a light pole. The only way he's effective is if he has the ball in his hands 75% of the time.

    Let Beno grow or slide BBarry over if Beno can't handle it in the playoffs.

    also I think gp wants playing time if he has to move
    spurs would not have that
    suns really do not need him either
    there back up point is ok

    spurs have to show interst in them for pr reasons but they do not want him

    The Suns are actually very actively after him and have been in contact with his agent quite a bit. Nash's reoccuring hamstring problem has them worried. But I think Payton has already agreed to return to Boston.

    Signing a guy that Parker owns is not saying they have no faith in him...trust me, Parker isn't insecure about Payton...infact Payton is one of his favorite players.

    Experience...and a guy who wants to win.

    I admit I am a little nervous about it...he is kind of a choker. But I still think he has something to offer...he also probably has a few tricks he could teach Parker and Beno.

    yeah, letting that mvp candidate go was brilliant. guy has missed a couple of games ... how does that negate how he has turned around that franchise?

    That's what Boston thinks...but why hasn't he resigned? I don't think Payton was expecting this much interest in his services.

    This guy wants a ring bad. I don't think it's a done deal that he is going back to Boston.

    Beno sucks. Come on. Wake up. Lets put our Parker rest in the hands of a rookie Slovenian.

    Yeah right.

    He was just waived this afternoon, no one has had a chance to sign him yet.

    It might not be a done deal yet, but by the words of his agent yesterday, it seemed that's where he was heading.

    You do realize which team the Spurs will meet up with if they come out of the West, right? GP had Steve Smith-esque performance against Billups.

    I'm not big on what he brings to the table at this point in his career. I personally feel that the Spurs wouldn't be any better off with him.

    The thought of him going to Phoenix or another good team makes me nervous though. I hope he re-signs with Boston.

    I thought this was a good idea

    ...two years ago. Then he and Karl signed with the Lakers and that whole debacle proved two things to me:

    1. Karl Malone is a true professional
    2. Gary Payton is a little .

    He fit right in with the Lakers. He and Kobe were made for each other.

    Pass...
