That's why you extend him this summer and then you don't have anything to worry about except building a bigger trophy case.
what happens if Nazr has a great season and we are unable to pay him the type of money his agent is looking for; then we are left with no starting Center

yeah that would be a big problem, when the spurs have won championships, they have had a reliable big man next to tim
Just a note:
http://www.palmbeachpost.com/heat/co...udup_0707.htmlMiami likely will focus on acquiring Portland forward Shareef Abdur-Rahim, although New Jersey, Washington and Sacramento also are interested. Abdur-Rahim, 28, has averaged 19.8 points per game in nine seasons.
Washington might have some pieces Portland would like. Kwame Brown and SARS double sign and trade?
I say he's going to chose Miami.
Straight up or S&T?
What is Miami going to offer back? Shaq's wet dream doesn't count.
That means they say goodbye to Damon Jones, right?
Yeah, if they're not going to do a S&T, that means they'll go without a PG next season.
And their best three point shooter. He is a big part of what they do.Yeah, if they're not going to do a S&T, that means they'll go without a PG next season.
Don't forget guys that Shareef can play the SF position pretty good. He's athletic and tall. I've seen a lot of posters wanting a tall-athletic SF. Shareef IMO is that guy.
but he is not young, we want a young athletic SF, someone like Nocioni,Gerald Wallace,Bostjan Nachbar someone along those lines
Nocioni is not that guywe want a young athletic SF, someone like Nocioni,Gerald Wallace,Bostjan Nachbar
Gerald Wallace is a power forward
Bostjan is reupped in New Orleans.
On that note, Reef is NOT a SF.
But Id do this trade in a NY minute.
Just to clarify, Gerald Wallace is a SF not a PF.Gerald Wallace is a power forward
Position: F
Born: Jul 23, 1982

Shareef Abdur-Rahim, PF
Suitors: Blazers, Nets, Kings, Magic, Heat, Cavs, Bulls
The skinny: The Blazers love this 6-9 former All-Star's professionalism but they are rebuilding around younger players. The Nets want badly to plug him into their gaping hole at the 4 spot (where he would join fellow Cal alum Jason Kidd). Nets coach Lawrence Frank, a former assistant for the Grizzlies during Abdur-Rahim's time in Vancouver, even flew to Atlanta over the Fourth of July weekend to make a recruiting pitch. But the Nets have only their mid-level exception to offer, so any deal would likely require a sign-and-trade. Abdur-Rahim reportedly intends to visit New Jersey and Sacramento this week.
A young guy? Shareef is just one year older than Duncan. Are you calling Rahim old?
Nachbar is re-signing with NO, Nocioni can't shoot a three to save his life, and some team is going to offer Wallace more than what we are looking to pay someone like that.
Shareef Abdur-Rahim, PF

I think the Cavs are mentioned with every FA, because of all their caproom.
He'd be a nice fit for them and hey, you could do worse.
Agreed, and if Michael Redd stays in Milwaukee, they could throw bigger money at him than any other team. A 20/10 guy would be great for Lebron and the Cavs. Too bad Carlos Boozer didn't see that. (Too bad many Spurs fans don't see he'd be great here).
You reckon?
I'd be quite happy to see him trying to post up Timmy.......or even TMass.
Ditto. But the F.O. doesn't seem to consider it the most important problem behind a PG backup and Scola. I say leave Scola in Europe another year so we won't have to buy out his contract and use the money on a SF. What would be wrong with that?
Grooming a Bowen replacement is a nice idea, but I think first and foremost you look to have experience on that roster now. The next 2 to 3 seasons will be some of the best shots the Spurs have to add more LOB trophies to the collection.
If the Spurs can land a young 3 that isn't raw via free agency, great. But if we are talking about projects like LJ3, let's pass on that for now.
I doubt any one player is going to replace Bowen's D. I think the best we can hope for is for Brown to take the smaller perimeter assignments and [insert Hedo-type SF here] for the larger players.
I'm fine with making one of the projects this year an SF -- we're getting by ok right now.
