Actually, trading Neal now would be perfect. His trade worth just keeps skyrocketing.
This team has a surplus of guards but Neal is just instant offense all the time. Spurs probably would have an extra loss or two at the very least without him.
His shot selection drives me nuts sometimes, but finding players with the big kahunas to let it fly in crucial moments and be cold blooded at the same time are tough to find.
He's everything we hoped Roger Mason would be and more.

I think his ceiling is a Vinnie Johnson type.
Dude hits big shots. you don't trade guys like that, plain and simple. its not like he's a cap burden either, so i don't get why people are so intent on trading him
I don't think anyone wants to trade him because they're disappointed with what he's producing. We just have TOO many guards.
I would only trade Neal if it included getting a solid back.
Dude is just one if not the best shooter in the league.
he can get 5-7 mil this offseason
splitter could likely get somewhere from 7-10 mil
spurs probably dont want to pay both of them that kind of money
Would still rather trade Green if anyone because Anderson can do pretty much what he does plus putting the ball on the floor and passing while nobody can replace Neal. Plus Green's streaky shooting is kinda unreliable compared to a sniper like Neal that can hit any shot any time really.
He's a free agent after this season and will ask for a large amount. Spurs will have cap room, but they might want to use it to get a good big. I like Gary and would love to see him back, but I would rather the Spurs deal him now and get something back than watch him walk and get nothing.
There are times were I think we should trade Neal because of how horrible he is at playing the point, then I think over everything you just said and decide no, but Neal is a real problem sometimes and Nando seems to be improving every game but it's a tough call as to decide which of those two would be a bitter fit with the second unit I wish there was a way both could be in the rotation but it just doesn't seem plausible at the moment.
yeah, let's trade someone that actually ing helps the win column......
ing shoot me already..
Yeah cause Anderson has proved that he can go off on any given night lol. You dont know what your talking about lol.
Anderson can't do everything green can, yes green is a streaky shooter but between the two in my eyes green is the better player.
Neal+Blair for a top 5 pick, i would take it
Green and Neal in ball their asses off...it's up to Pop to do something with it... But that dbag would rather float 20 minutes to in bonner for some reason....wtf...
Because, and you'll notice this in time, the majority of ppl here have no idea what he they're talking about lol
Between the two anderson and green, green is the better player no doubt.
This thread brings up something I'm curious about. What should the starting lineup be once Leonard comes back?
Neal looks very comfortable in the starting SG role and I would have campaigned him to start there once Leonard was healthy, but Green also did well at the end of today's game so you can't bench him. I don't know if this sounds crazy, but should Leonard be the starting PF over Blair? That way, you could start Duncan, Leonard, Green, Neal, and Parker. The 2nd unit will be Splitter, Diaw, Jackson, Manu, and De Colo. I don't have the stats to back up this idea, but just on paper alone, what do you guys think?
You're quickly rising on the ranks of tiest posters on Spurstalk.
Must be trolling, i don't even know if Neal had a positive perfomance or not in this game(despite his 29 points).
For a win-now team, we need this roster together in the playoffs.
Neal's instant-O will be much-needed, especially when the opposing D gets tougher.
If we're looking good this year, I'd like to hold onto our team to make a run at the 'ship - if we lose players to free agency next year, it.
Blair is probably the only player I'd be happy to see traded before the end of the season.
Neal has one of the most cost-effective contracts in the league. The Spurs can't get anything for him unless he's packaged with a guy like Bonner.
