    Imagine if the Spurs best laid plans would have come to fruition:

    Front line: TD, Tiago, Ian, KT, Oberto, Bonner. What a mix of young/old

    Well actually it would have been:

    Tim Duncan, Tiago, Ian, Scola, KT, Oberto and Bonner would have been shipped out. Either that or...

    Tim Duncan, Tiago, Ian, KT, Oberto and Vspan backing up Ginobili.

    I was referring to realistic plans without looking in the rear view mirror.

    Ok, I'll give you a serious answer looking forward. Spurs need to get their bench stronger. They need seriously someone to back up Ginobili and Parker who can also put a lot of points on the board. Mason is good but do not even try to stick him in at point guard. I think Hill can develop into a good point guard cause he's athletic enough and smart enough to do it. But I'd still rather use him in both positions. Spurs are adequate at both guard positions. Now SF, Center and Backup PF are all areas that need upgrading.

    SF you need someone who can play solid defense and score more than 2 pts a game.

    Center - For crying out loud I still cannot figure out why Oberto wasn't played unless Pop was trying to protect his health and that bad ticker of his. Oberto is playoff tested and would have been better than Bonner out there. That being said, if you're not going to use Oberto, get rid of him and get rid of Bonner too. Get someone like Nene.

    Backup PF, Maybe you can get a tall guy like Pryzbilla a combo PF/C to come to San Antonio. Wouldn't bet on it though.

    Just what we need, another PF that plays below the rim and blocks shots flat footed.

    Since Pau is in serious financial straits, I'd say it's quite likely that they find whatever way they can to dump his salary. It's probably 80 percent he ends up a spur, just because of the money problems the team and the league have over there.

    Where there's a will there's a way.

    I bought all the Spurs' PR about how Scola's buyout/agent/whatever made him utterly unattainable. Just impossible for anyone to get him to the NBA. Then the Spurs move him to Houston and he's in uniform before Jackie Butler even knows he's been traded.

    If the Spurs want Splitter bad enough to pull strings and spend, I bet he'll be here.

    He's coming.
    The question is not if, but when.
    Everyone is penciling in 2010.

    Don't think there aren't other teams overseas that would pay for his services if he became available. And salaries over there would be much more than what he would be getting paid to play for the Spurs in the spot that they drafted him at.

    Where there's a will there's a way.

    I bought all the Spurs' PR about how Scola's buyout/agent/whatever made him utterly unattainable. Just impossible for anyone to get him to the NBA. Then the Spurs move him to Houston and he's in uniform before Jackie Butler even knows he's been traded.

    They can't spend more than what his draft position allows. This is why it's going to be difficult for him to come over.

    Correction - Spurs can give him more money in 2010. The question now is... would he be worth it. Looking at that video... he needs some work to get his game up to NBA standards.

    He's coming.
    The question is not if, but when.
    Everyone is penciling in 2010.
    2010 is being very optimistic in my opinion. Unless he has a burning desire to play the very best, I just don't think his focus is there, but moreso on what he can earn at this point in his career.

    eventually every thread is a Scola thread
    I assume we should (I mean Spurs' organization) should learn from that mistake, we need Tiago to develop him at this level, anyhow he could get a big contract in euros, because of that Spurs should make him a good offert.

    Is Spurs allowed to pay Splitter a big offer? According with his brazilian agent, it´s almost impossible to go to Spurs next year, due the rookie contract scale.
