    Still nothing..not even a solid rumor with names. This kinda smells like a true spurs trade coming up. One no one has heard of. (or there was something in the works and it died) I guess this thread can just stay open until something happens or the deadline passes.

    Would anyone consider Posey if Julian Wright was packaged as an incentive ?

    http://games.espn.go.com/nba/tradeMa...radeId=yjfdvbf

    With Finley getting bought out and coming back?

    Just want to get feedback from ST Fam....
    I'd love Posey, he may be dirty but he would add much needed tougness to the team. Sadly his contract sucks and he is on the decline.

    I'd think about it if they threw Darren Collison in instead of Wright.

    I'm surprised Julian Wright has struggled as much as he has. Corey Brewer's punching through a bit, but Wright looks like he never will.

    Agreed, Martin sucks pretty bad.
    Not sure if you were being sarcastic here, but Martin's a SOLID scorer. Last night's game wasn't/isn't indicative of his actual talent level. I think he's just tired of that Kings team. I'd be surprised if, were he to be traded, his production didn't improve IMMENSELY.

    The Spurs don't need a superstar, you ing dumbass. They need role players, and right now they need someone who can step into the gap that Bowen left. Wright is one of those guys. Let the other teams chase overrated scorers that don't understand team basketball or defense.
    it didn't mean that way but the role players , we got them.
    It's not dorrell ing wright who gonna make us better or change things.
    I know we don't need superstar but come on WHO THE IS DORRELL WRIGHT ??????? dumbass i'm just tired of lateral moves made by the spurs since so many years.

    He hasn't necessary struggled as much as you suggest. He's a long athletic small forward who is still only 22 and has untapped potential. He just needs find some consistent PT and improve on his outside shot to a degree. IMO

    He was never going to develop under Byron Scott - and as long as he stays in New Orleans, he'll probably never reach is full potential.

    If you've got your heart set on Wright, I guess I have to ask why you'd want to trade for 2 SFs?

    Wright will not put the spurs past the lakers. He just is not that type of an impact player.
    Why do you even respond them?
    They are such a pussy like: "oh well we, Spurs play defense you know we don't need lebron james oh my oh hum oh I tkinh Nazr Mohammed would be great or maybe Dorrell Wright then we could beat the lakers oh yeah..."

    Julian Wright is not much incentive. Dude is all athlete and virtually no basketball player. He's a poor man's tyrus thomas, when tyrus is thomas is just a poor man's competent forward.

    I think the player has potential, and can reach it if he's in the right scenario.

    Depends on which superstar they get. I'd rather see an impact star player then a role player.
    A star is not going to help a team that is just not playing good basketball. It's more about the team and less about the personnel.

    He's as athletic as Tyrus Thomas in jumping ability yeah. But their games are totally different. imo

    For Mason and Bogans expiring contract, Julian Wright who is a young, long and athletic 22 year old small forward is an incentive. He has two more years left on his rookie scaled contract as well.

    There both thin 4s that occasionally masquerade as 3s. Neither has much game around the hoop. And both are guys who were taken much earlier in the draft than they should have been based on athletic ability without regard to basketball skill.

    I'd rather have Haislip than Wright.

    He's the last guy on the bench for a good team. He doesn't have a jumpshot, he's never had a jumpshot, no reason to think that he'll develop one now.

    I guess the hope would be that he could develop that athletic ability into a big defensive, rebounding 3, but that hasn't happened yet.

    Julian Wright = James Gist
    Perhaps?

    Julian Wright is a small forward/wing/guard first and foremost. He is not a power forward by any means.

    Julian Wright can guard 2/3's in the league.

    We have different opinions. Leave it at that.

    I'm not saying Julian Wright is the main reason I'd go for this trade, he has his faults just like any other player.

    Reason why he would be an incentive is because of the low risk high reward in terms of his cheap rookie scaled contract and ceiling potential wise.

    BTW Stromile Swift is a better comparison to a poor man's Tyrus Thomas.

    Parker, Finley
    for
    Andre Miller, + one of (Pryzbilla, Fernandez) or (Outlaw, Webster) or (Pryzbilla, Batum)

    Why for POR? Get an all-star level youngish PG to go with their youthful core. Miller and Roy were having trouble coexisting; because Roy is Manu'ish in that he plays as a partial creator role at SG.

    Why for SA? Miller + either a good youngster (Batum/Fernandez) + filler (pryzbilla - injured, might come back next year). or Miler + 2 decent wings. Any of the packages would improve our wing rotation without much of a downgrade at PG.

    IF the FO thinks hes a bust, send Mahinmi along as well for the tax savings, and ask for rights to Victor Claver in return.

    James Gist has odds against him to ever sit in a suit in an NBA game.

    Julian Wright has already defied those odds, playing in more games than supervising in a suit.

    Anyway I'm tired of y'all making me defend Julian Wright like he's the second coming. That wasn't my intention whatsoever. I just think the player has some value even if it's a little due to his untapped potential and two more years left on his rookie scale contract. Not to mention, also being 22 years old.

    Worst trade proposal I've ever read ...

    Trading a young, at times a top 5 pg, for an overpaid aging slow footed point guard and injured players who won't even help us this year.
