Holt strikes again.
![]()
SAN ANTONIO – The San Antonio Spurs today announced that they have waived guards Stephen Graham, Melvin Sanders and forward Sharrod Ford.
Graham appeared in seven preseason games where he averaged 5.4 points and 1.7 rebounds.
Sanders averaged 6.3 points and 2.6 rebounds in seven preseason contests.
Ford appeared in all eight Spurs preseason games and averaged 4.9 points and 2.5 rebounds.
The Spurs roster now stands at 13.
So are they making room for someone else?
Wasn't there a vBookie on the subject?![]()
damn the plot thickens........room for a latrell by chance??
They are making room for more money in Holt's wallet.
yup.
Cause an owner is NOT allowed to consider his finances.
When did we become NY again?
damn thats crazy so they were like yo you guys hope you enjoyed your little vacation time in the Virgin Islands hope you enjoyed playing with the champs but the dream is over, go home now
Spurs win their third championship but Holt won't let them spring for a 14th man? That's pretty weak, especially considering how well this team is able to mold IR fodder into rotational players. Stephen Jackson and Devin Brown come to mind.
The Spurs will probably be the only team in the NBA with only 13 players under contract. But that's okay, whatever to plea$e Holt.
Yeah.
would anyone want spree for the vet min?
I can't believe I'm asking this, but does this put them under the cap?
Don't NBA teams only have 12 activce spots and 1 reserve on the roster?
12 and 3
No. Just saves Holt about $750,000.![]()
I though Sanders or Ford would make it....guess not
They are over the cap by a lot and even over the luxury tax by a few hundred grand.
Why are people harping on Holt. He's a good solid owner. Best of the best.
He helped deliver the trophy... what else do you want??
Some people think with the age of the bench, it might be wise to spend a few hundred grand to keep one of the young players.
rasho will burn for this
I hope they can trade rasho for a long three
could they get a long three for scola?
Right On!!![]()

hah! sadly.. i was thinking the very same thing.
Carl i agree with you Rasho will burn for this
Now all that's left is for a trade to shave off about $600K in payroll by the trade deadline. Any wonder why the front office was willing to take back the rotting corpse of Tariq Abdul-Wahad's career for Radoslav?
I still do not understand why we, as fans of the team, not the Spurs' income statement, should be pleased with these decisions.
None of three plays great.
Sanders was short, Graham was not NBA ready and Ford is a PF we don't need.
Spurs have only 4 swingmen (assuming they won't do a trade or sign a 14th guy) but Beno and Nick can play SG, so I'm not too worried.
