I'd say no to all three. the best we could get for Jackson's expiring is Kris Humpries?
1. Dejuan Blair For Fab Melo
2. Dejuan Blair For Jermaine O'neal
3. Dejuan Blair & Stephen Jackson For Kris Humpries-Kardashian

They give reasons for all three scenarios (link above.)
Personally, I'd go with door number #1

That being said..... I would take Fab Melo in a heartbeat. 7'0" in shoes with a 7'2.5" wingspan, defensive center... averaging 3.6 blocks in 27 minutes in the d-league as a 22yo rookie
The third one is tempting, but I'd have to say no also. Main reason being O'Neal is Mr. Glass, and I have a problem getting rid of Stack already. There's something about the fire he brings to the team and the locker room in general. If I had to choose, it'd be # 1 because the ceiling is higher than the other two. Plus Tiago would have a fellow countryman on the squad.
Yeah, the third one is the most intriguing. Hump plays hard and is having a great year, but I wouldn't wanna lose Jack for him... Heelllll nah lol
Golden State Warriors Should Trade for San Antonio Spurs’ DeJuan Blair
http://www.rantsports.com/nba/2013/01/28/golden-state-warriors-should-trade-for-san-antonio-spurs-dejuan-blair/
The San Antonio Spurs seemed to have gotten the steal of the 2009 NBA Draft by grabbing Pittsburgh Panthers superstar DeJuan Blair in the early second round. Blair immediately became a crowd favorite in San Antonio, but for whatever reason has become another Spurs outcast. That means he’s on the trading block and the team that would benefit most from his inside scoring ability is the Golden State Warriors.
spurs will regret trading blair .......... blair = toughness needed in the playoffs
i don't like any of those. i think the need now is a younger jeff green/ derrick williams type. no baynes hasn't done anything yet, but he's gonna get the look at enforcer big. he's the blair replacement. we need the bonner replacement next. people that want a backup pg replacement are nuts. we have mills, de colo, and cory joseph.
The first option sounds good. We don't need Blair anymore. Sure, he had that one good game against Dallas, but he's not even in our regular rotation. If we can trade him for a 7-footer with potential, I say do it. You can never have too much size on your team.
victor claver, tobias harris, donatas montiejunas, darius miller, austin daye, or royce white. one of those guys is ideal i think.
Fab Melo and Aaron Banes will be the real turd towers.
I doubt Melo goes anywhere before he plays on the main stage. I've been watching his games and he could be really legit in a year or two. The worst that could happen to him is not play or play 5min 10min a game. He needs to stay at D-League and burn those 25-30min per game. You can see his impact on both ends already, besides blocking, screening he also has a surprisingly decent jump shot around the basket, sometimes off the glass. FT pretty solid. It's all potential though because of his short experience.
Who would the Spurs get if Scrub is finally shipped out? Jefferson?? Biedrins??
If they would send us Ezeli,Thompson and Jack for Scrub,Green and Bonner.... that would be sweet..
But I'm pretty sure GS would not pull that trigger.
i hate bleacher report. i also hate that inside the nba promotes them.
mark deeks just tweeted: "with three blocks tonight, nate robinson now has more than dejuan blair has all season."
mark deeks can suck a , that's just uncalled for
What makes you think they won't park him in Austin with CoJo? It's not like Blair is contributing, or can bring back someone who can...
haha, he's actually cool. pretty insightful too. i like shamsports, his site.
I'm sure we could pry Derrick Williams away from the Wolves, they already tried to trade him at least 3 times in less than 1 1/2 seasons.
Then again, he is averaging 9pts, 4.5 rpg and hits 35%3pt (though he's only shooting 41% overall)
Blair + Neal and maybe a future 1st round pick.
Neal gives them a scorer on the wing, which Roy was supposed to bring, Blair gives them a legit P&R player who can board and has starting experience.
Williams is 6'8 with a 7 1/2 foot wing span and a nearly 3 foot max vert, via draft express. Could make captain expendable after the season, and give us a high ceiling player for the future.
I meant Melo could turn into a really good center, so I doubt any team would trade him before knowing how he adapts to NBA.
Blair did just have 22 pts in 20 minutes 2 games ago... if we can't move him, its worth keeping him as a change of pace PF like Mills is at PG.
That is a low blow and not quite fair. Blair hasn't played consistently since December. But then again Blair needs to step it up...
I got killed for making a thread about us moving Blair & Joseph + a 2nd rounder for Royce White. He's not very popular round here it seems.
i think i read your post before i joined cd. i love the idea.
Considering that Houston and White just reached an agreement on mental health protocols, I doubt he's moved this season.
So, one good game, a spattering of garbage time appearances, and a truckload of DNP/CDs. Not really contributing.
Do WHATEVER is NECESSARY to SHIP GARY NEAL'S (HERO BALL'S) ASS out of TOWN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! He is poisoning this team. Dude has a toxic fluid RUNNING through his VEINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
