then why are they trying to work a deal to get Rasho for SAR according to reports?they'll probably tell us and SAR to go screw...
that, we don't need him. I wouldn't sign him for 10 mil+. Like the dude before me said, let his ass go to the Nets. SAR should be thankful that a team as good as the Spurs would even consider taking him. He should be willing to take less to get a ring.

Outlaw?No, that was just fuzzy math by WOAI. The had the graphic on the screen and it was all wrong.
The truth is if the Spurs do a sign-and-trade with the Blazers, it'll be more than the MLE. How much more? Not sure.
Rasho for SARS and Outlaw/Viktor/Sergey?
Yes, please.
Viktor? Why give up on him?
That's one thing...trying to get prospects out of Portland with him is another thing entirely...
I'm talking about Travis Outlaw, Viktor Kryapa and Sergey Monia ... AKA Portland small forward youngsters Spurs could try to get their hands on.
Oh... I thought you were talking about Bo Outlaw, Viktor we drafted, and the Russian we drafted.
I don't think Portland is goign to agree to any of this. When it comes down to it, I don't think Rasho is attractive as we think he is. Yes some teams would like him, but didn't alot of players get overpaid last summer?
I mean, wasn't the market really high and everyone was like holy this player got X amount of money
and the next guy was like yeah it was the market this summer, you gotta pay accordingly
Rasho isn't worth his contract, if he was on a cheaper contract I would want to keep him, but I don't see teams needing size that bad to want to take on Rasho's contract and at the same time give up a good player.
Portland and SAR seems like a decent reason for getting rid of him (spacing) but I doubt they throw in a young prospect as well.
I would do the trade definitely, but only if they also have plans for a young SF god dammit!
timvp is dead on about squeezing Portland for something extra. SAR is apparently considering walking away for nothing. If they deal with the Spurs they get a legit starting center back with a decent contract that isn't too long.
As for Scola, nobody knows for certain how his game will translate into the NBA. I will say that given Manu's success and the hype surrounding Scola that if you were going to deal him and perhaps get someone to overpay for him that now would be the time.
Rasho got less than market value.I mean, wasn't the market really high and everyone was like holy this player got X amount of money
Do you say that bc of Minny offering him more
This Scola talk is so ridiculous. SARS (lol) is a proven scorer...he's played many seasons in the premier basketball league in the world...
Maybe we've been thinking about this all wrong.
What if they're thinking about starting Tim and Shareef side by side, then bringing Nazr in as the backup five?
Then you got Horry at the four, and can also bring in (potentially) Scola to play backup.
Just thinking out loud here...
As for the 10 million, that wouldn't be unfeasible at all. To come in 10 million more than the Nets over the life of a five year deal the Spurs could start SAR off at 1.5 million above the MLE (6.6 million).
If we could pry away one of the Portland SFs in the process, even better. Maybe we let Pritchard go to Portland to hook us up from the inside [/evil thoughts]
SAR for the MLE is a steal. Ditto for getting him for Rasho. Sometimes, opportunities just fall into your lap. This is one of those times.
Can't Be Faded -
The difference here is SAR is threatening to walk without Portland getting anything back in return.
Given that, they suddenly have to be a lot more attentive to what the Spurs are saying.
I don't think Portland has much incentive to throw in one of their young prospects. they're rebuilding anyway - they can do that just as easily without Rasho. He just happens to fit their offense better than Joel.
would you trade scola and rasho for sar and those draft prospects?
ahh i see
but i still am skeptical. It reminds me last year and the Jermaine O'Neal talk.
Travis Outlaw put up 32/5 in the summer league.
Either way, you do this trade.
That might help -- They have a ton of other possible deals to make though. Get greedy and SARS and the Blazers could go another direction.
The difference is Jermaine was just using us for leverage for a max deal and incentives with Indy.
SAR is hanging out in NJ, from where Portland is sitting they're fixing to lose arguably their third or fourth best player for nothing.
When you're faced with that reality, suddenly a trade for Rasho doesn't sound so bad.
Plus, CIA Pop has Pritchard on the inside

CIA Pop ownzzzz
I agree getting greedy is not to smart one
I would throw in scola to get a long three prospect of portland's
they would address a need there
portland could call sar bluff
it is not the only time he has mentioned coming to sa
one thing is the spurs did trade da to portland...
i'd rather have marshall than SARS
i'd rather have SARS than scola
i'd rather have an athletic tall man than SARS
i'd rather have any athletic small forward than SARS Scola or Marshall
Maybe the plan is both.i'd rather have marshall than SARSANY one?i'd rather have any athletic small forward than SARS Scola or Marshall
Not me.
Many of those guys suck.
well i guess i should have said A not Any
he has to have the spurs work ethic to develop his talents of course
I love Scola but if the Spurs could get Outlaw and SAR together, that would be very tempting. Outlaw has all the tools and some to be the next Bruce Bowen.
