What about Rose? I think some people around here owe Nazr an apology.
how sad for mavs to pay all that money to a loser and at the same time they lose steve 'unstopable' nash...sad
now the spurs get a good hard working guy in nazr and boom he is delievering in the playoffs...amazing. nazr has lots upside cant wait to see what he looks like after a offseason with spurs coachs and timmy tutoring.
damn im excited. Tim, Manu, TP, bowen and nazr thats the best all around starting line up.
What about Rose? I think some people around here owe Nazr an apology.
no disrespect to you AHF, but lets just forget about rose and lets stop comparing the two. lets concentrate on the present, future,...the past is what it is.What about Rose? I think some people around here owe Nazr an apology.
GO SPURS GO
man i wish i lived in SA so that i can attend the games, im stuck with the warriors.
Same here. CONCORD CA REPERSENT!!!!!GO SPURS GO
man i wish i lived in SA so that i can attend the games, im stuck with the warriors.
even though it was the unpopular opinion around here, I always supported the decision to go bigger with Narz. who in here is going to say Malik would have been as good as Narz in this years playoffs?
Hey, "our" (NOT MINE THOUGH!!) team just got the number 1 pick!!
Like I care
CA>>>>>TX aside from spurs and cowboys.Same here. CONCORD CA REPERSENT!!!!!
No apology needed, I just want to see certain people who said Nazr wouldn't contribute a damn thing in the playoffs to show up and admit they were wrong.
mouse insisted that they got the "steal" of this trading deadline in Van Horn.
i think the real steal would be Nazr.
I call bull , you brought out this thread to bash on Rose some more. That's the only reason you ever bring this up time and time again.

Look at post #33 of that thread and you'll find where this person admitted he was wrong about Nazr producing in the playoffs. And to note, I've seen many other Rose supporters coming out to give Props to Nazr. It's only when you throw in a Rose bash at the same time when you get everybody pissed off.
Again, I'm happy POP and RC's gamble paid off big time in this year's playoffs. Obviously, homecourt didn't play a role in hurting our championship dreams after Sunday's and tonight's performance; and I'm happy Nazr has played a role in that success. I honestly didn't think that it would've happened and I still think that this performance is considered gravy in respect to POP and RC's expectations of him this season.
But for me to give you props for seeing this in advance is crazy. Especially after seeing him perform as poorly as he did when he got here. For you to believe in Nazr to play as well as he has in time for the playoffs, after how poorly he played when he arrived, was just blind faith. Nothing more, nothing less. So stop tooting your own horn. It's getting ridiculous.
Bull . I'm not trying to bash Rose, I could give a about Philly's Phamous.
This is about people like you, LJ, whott, etc. who said that Malik would have contributed more in these playoffs than Nazr would, that Nazr couldn't play D, couldn't rebound, wouldn't sniff 10 and 10, had no heart, no compe iveness, etc.
So kiss my ass
Nazr is playing like a man. I was indifferent about the trade when it happened. When Nazr started to suck, I was worried and called him out.
I 100% apologize for that. He's been a beast. Rose was good for this team with David and Tim around him. But now with David gone, Nazr is close to the perfect answer.
He's bringing his game up each round. And that's saying something after having a huge game to start the playoffs.
Oh and yeah he's better than Dampier. I'd take Nazr over two Dampiers.
Props.
Wasn't Nazr hurt when he first arrived? That might explain his lack of productivity at that time.

Im From Union City!! Straight Outta The Yay Area!!!
Lesson to be learned, don't question Pop and RC. They're right about 100x as often as you are. That's why they make the big bucks and you don't.
Hurt and severely pressing due to his own expectations.
Only a comment made by a hater.
Based on the performances I was seeing at the time, it was an accurate assumption to make.This is about people like you, LJ, whott, etc. who said that Malik would have contributed more in these playoffs than Nazr would, that Nazr couldn't play D, couldn't rebound, wouldn't sniff 10 and 10, had no heart, no compe iveness, etc.

Considering their track record, you'd think I'd back all their decisions out of blind loyalty. But that's never been my nature.
well they did sign rasho. so i guess they arnt perfect.
and lets not forget HEDO. oh and guy i like to call steve smith who 3 years ago was the spurs 2nd option and is now the 12th man down in miami.
Spurs need to trade Rasho, b/c with Nazr here, he won't get much mins & lets face it, Rasho is a liability on the OFF side of the court. Also with that salary, Rasho can't be held onto just to come off the bench. I rather have Marks next yr off the bench for far less cheddah than Rasho & his salary.
Add Jovakas & Scola & it's see ya later Rasho!
Rasho>Dampier
I couldn't have said that better myself. Nazr was the center the spurs were looking for 2 years ago.
I don't think anybody doubted the decision. Most people realize that talent wise, it was a good trade. People just couldn't give up Rose due to sentimental reasons. He was a crowd favourite because of his heart and his background.
Getting rid of Rose was a good move...ever since he got his big contract...he's steadily gone down hill...managing at least one major up a game...I for one was excited about Nazr coming to SA...I thought we got the better part of that deal...and he's been coming along nicely. I think the whole situation with him having to come in and play in place of Frankenstein has actually forced him to learn our system and play better...now the only thing I can see that he needs work on is controlling the ball...it seems like alot of times he gets a good pass under the basket...he gets rattled and either fumbles it away or has to gain control of it, giving the defense a chance to set up around him...dunk that damn ball man...
