    Per espn.com:

    "The NBA relaxed the lockout rules and permitted teams to contact players' agents beginning at 8 a.m. CT. Those that quickly expressed interest in the 6-foot-7 Butler are the San Antonio Spurs, Miami Heat, Los Angeles Lakers, Los Angeles Clippers, New Jersey Nets and Chicago Bulls."


    I don't see him coming, but still interesting that they're putting feelers out to his agent. Could it be possible that we see RJ amnestied this season, instead of next?

    Seriously, if the Spurs load up on more goddamn shooting guards and undersized forwards, I am going to .

    The only need for a guard is if we go after a backup point, and that's only if they feel that Neal can't handle the responsibility.

    I think the list of 6'6" swingmen that the Spurs are NOT interested in would be shorter...

    Agreed, Bulter would have been extremely intriguing in the pre-RJ era. Now that we have a chance to look at JA and KL I don't see adding Bulter as a good idea because I dont think he would put us over the top anyway.

    I'd prefer to give Splitter a chance to play alongside Duncan until ASB to see if Tiago has a future with our team as a starter/building block. We can make the necessary trades/adjustments at the trade deadline.

    It would be nice if they stopped trying to make sideway moves.

    The Spurs already have two centers. If they can go out and get someone like Nene who can guard 4s then that would be sweet, but otherwise they have no need for a 5.

    Them contacting Butler could be a good thing.

    1. I doubt they seriously consider signing a SF with RJ still on the roster, this means they believe they can get rid of him one way or another

    2. Butler could be had at bargain given the injury he suffered, but before he went down he was still a very good player who can create his own shot. Much better player than RJ.

    Id take him in a heartbeat if we could unload RJ for a decent big.

    I know. Duncan really locked down Marc Gasol.

    He might be able to create his own shot but that's not necessarily mean he would do well in the Spurs system. He's a ball stopper. That's a big part of the reason the Spurs were able to beat them last playoffs. They encouraged him to do his thing on offense to the detriment of Dirk and the team.

    LOL, you're going to bury Duncan for Gasol having one really big game against him? So is Duncan your 6th man or what?

    Duncan constantly having to cheat over and help Blair/Bonner on Randolph freed up Gasol the majority of the time.

    The Lakers are always mentioned with every player that may be on the move.

    The Spurs might be interested in Butler, but I'm not interested at ALL.
