    Footnotes

    Orlando Magic forward Grant Hill has been trying to act as a mentor to guard Steve Francis this season. Francis was suspended indefinitely Thursday for refusing to go back into the game, and word is Hill kept Francis from pulling the same stunt Jan. 6 in a loss to New Jersey. ... An NBA executive said the San Antonio Spurs are seeking an athletic big man to aid their inside game. ... Kirilenko said he will have surgery in the offseason to repair his battered nose. "(My wife said) get plastic surgery and cut off half of your nose," he said. "I said, 'We'll see.' I'll be the next Tom Cruise." ... Nuggets forward Carmelo Anthony recently signed a multiyear contract for a new energy drink in Asia called C1.5 Energy, which will be created with his direction. Portions of the revenue will benefit his charitable foundation.

    We won't with just Nazr either, unfortunately. We are missing a truly athletic frontcourt player which is crucial in today's NBA. If we can't trade for that player, we may as well start trying out guys like Chuck Hayes to see if they could contribute.

    Nobody wants Nesterovic. People would sign a Ham Sandwich to a 1M deal before Rasho's contract was accepted.

    I hope the Spurs go after Artest. I really think he would excell in this system. I know it's a pipedream, but the defense is not where it should be and the rebounding is bad.

    What big men are available or are a good fit for us?

    Rasho will be gone, if anyone is gone...Nazr has improved his footwork and hands considerably since arriving. Rasho looks like he is playing volleyball most fo the time.

    Who would take Rasho at this point? Get real.

    Chris Wilcox is apparently available, same rumors around Dan Gadzuric -- but we don't have much either team would be interested in.

    When you have a Center (Rasho) and a small forward (Bowen) that can't rebound and you rely on your number one (Timmy) and guards (Parker and Ginobili) to rebound, you're hosed.

    A package of Rasho and Bowen could bring in something to help out.

    Bowen is becoming overrated imo. Jaren Jackson could hit 3 pointers.

    The Bulls, Pistons, and Lakers won championships without Bowen.

    I love how posters on players and then try to pimp them in a trade.

    They won without Duncan too.

    Yeah, he could...for about 20 games one playoff season. Bowen has one 3 point season shooting crown and is headed for another. He's probably been the best Spur this year, and you want to get rid of him. Oh. I forgot. You're Sequ.

    if bowen is gone the pistons gaurds will dominate in a series. bowen seems important, he can constantly hit the outside jumper, and shuts down perimeter players. parker and ginobili have a hard time on D, and spurs perimeter D would look bad if he was gone. that's only what i think though. the pistons have a top perimeter defender in prince though.

    Hey brightone..........

    You can't trade Rasho and get a David Robinson, Rodman or a Ben Wallace.

    The Spurs need some help in the paint since duncan has plantar vagicitis or whatever...

    A Bowen Rasho/Nazr trade doesn't hurt this team at all............

    Last time I checked the Spurs averaged 68? against the Pistons.......

    This team could use some more athleticism in the paint and a little offense which Bowen offers neither.

    Hey short one - Never said that they didn't need to make a move. I'd give up any of Nazr, Barry, Finley, Beno for Wilcox. He's not an All Star, or All Anything for that matter, and they shouldn't expect such in return. I'd say anyone not named Duncan, Manu, Parker, or Bowen. Wilcox would be perfect, an athletic youngster of size who can grab some boards, get a few putbacks, and block some shots. Nazr may suit them, since they don't stress defense, and he's a ing open door to driving opponents.

    I like the way this man thinks.

    Finley can start at the 3, with Barry comming off the bench as the first guard. Since we would be trading two players, I'd expect to get a project player in the return deal, and if that was the case Beno would take Barry's old minutes.

    If you are going to trade Bowen, now is the time. Bowen is still one of my favorite players on the team, but the Spurs can afford to lose him if they can get Duncan a solid partner to tango with in the paint.

    The Spurs have a ton of unused bench tallent. The bench will pick up the slack if we need to pull one of them to start. The Spurs can afford to shorten the list of reserves, at the sacrifice of strengthing the starting five.

    The Spurs would never trade Bowen. He'll retire a Spur. Their D would be destroyed and he does a lot more for this team than casual observers (read: idiots like Sequ) can see.

    So if you want to think of some trade packages, try including any of Barry, Beno, Oberto, Nazr or Rasho.

    Nazr is not attractive unless he agrees to sign on coming in somewhere, he will be a free agent.
