I would blame everything on Pop and Bonner and then kill myself.
with this roster and of course with common sense.

No hope is... No hope...
Seriously I don't see any issues if killing myself too if I was the GM.
Spurs need to get rid of all the deadweight they have ac ulated over the last few years, but unfortunately thats more then half this team. However honestly at this moment of time I just don't know.
I would bring PJ Carlesimo back and ask Pop to gracefully retire. Even OKC has to admit they owe some of what is going on right now to him.
I was ing with you.

Draft a guy that's 7 ft
Sign some solid FA that can play defense
Trade Bonner, Jefferson & Blair
#1 priority - ship Parker out
#2 - retire Pop
#3 - ship Bonner out
This makes sense
If I can dream: Parker, Blair, and whatever for CP3 or Deron Williams
Bonner/Jefferson/Hill/Blair for Dwight Howard
Spurfan in Wonderland
Trade Manu for pick(s)
Trade Parker for pick(s)
Trade RJ for pick(s)
Trade picks for star player if possible, otherwise, tank in 2011-12 for great lotto pick
Revamp the entire front line except for tiago and tim.
I think the time has come to shake up the big three, and if you can find a way of getting rid of RJ then throw that one in also
Try to lure Sam Presti out of OKC and back into the organization...
100% Agree
Problem: If Duncan doesn't retire are you willing to deal him for draft picks/young player? Why watch him suffer on a ''tanking'' team?
If he wants out, he can have out. if he wants buyout, IR, Trade, whatever, he'll get it. He's TD, He's the ONLY reason the Spurs have ANY rings

At least, I would do my best in getting rid of RJ and Bonner.
No offence! But why should I keep the players who would disappear in the post season?
Shaking the Big 3 at this stage is too risky.
I am not a Splitter person, but I would do whatever it takes to get him a starting job.
Understood, anyway the situation isn't a clear one because Duncan makes 21M next year? Whose going to take that contract AND deal you worthwhile pieces in return?
doesn't matter, I'd Take Gilbert ing Arenas's contract (plus some picks) if TD said he wanted to go to Orlando.
or buy him out for most of the 21 mil if he wanted
It's almost impossible (for me at least) to know how next year is going to look. Even if you take that uncertainty out and pretend every thing will go on as it currently is, the Spurs are going to have an extremely difficult road ahead regardless of which direction they decide to go.
only one team i think and thats the blazers
they probably wanna get rid of roy and watever bum they on that team...
Time to blow things up in either a last ditch attempt to stir the pot or as an acceptance that we are no longer contenders (probably both at the same time). Preferably by going back to the defensive style of play we once held so dear.
Get Manu out of here; sorry to say it, but the dude has had multiple types of injuries for several straight years. We'll never forget 03-07, dude, but we shouldn't ignore 08-11 because of those great years. good bye for the best deal we can get (preferably picks or a similar caliber player thats around 7ft).
Build around Parker. It's time to accept we are probably no longer a championship caliber team, and Parker is in his prime and will bring fans to the stadium, and may even be able to propel us into the playoffs with a little help.
RJ might be able to stay with Manu gone, but I'd try to deal him for picks or a big/wing if we trade Manu for a big as well.
Tim Duncan's not too shabby for his age and mileage, but the dude has had no help down low for far too many years.
And Pop. Who do you replace Pop with? Probably no one. But I haven't been more frustrated with him since the 06 small-ball debacle.
As for the rest of the role players ... no one is untouchable, everyone is on the trading block. Attempting to contend again should be firmly matched against rebuilding options and the best deals available should designate which route we take.

The team needs to get younger, more athletic and bigger. They came back with the same team as last year. How do you expect different results in the playoffs with the same team that could not get out of the 2nd round.
Its time for some big moves to shakeup the roster. No more conservative line of thinking, bringing this same team back again.
Trade Manu out for a front line starter. Revamp the front line. Get rid of Bonner Splitter Jefferson and McDyess. Manu is getting over the hill and injured too often(4 years now in the playoffs) to be relied on anymore. He won't be worth the lenght of his contract.
Move Hill into starting sg, also develope Anderson next year. Hill will not develope into the player he can be as long as Manu is on the team. Give Hill starters minutes and watch him grow into a top player. We saw glimpses of his ability last year at times. It's a confidence issue with him and regular playing time will work wonders for him.
Hill and Anderson can cover the sg slot. Get a true backup pg.
