# NAZR MOHAMMED: A big body with championship experience who can rebound and score inside. However, this former Knick center may want the entire mid-level.

Nazr will get MLE at least. When you measuring stick is Tim Duncan he looks worse than he is.
Let him walk please.
He may walk but you guys don't seem to realize how few good big guys there are out there...As an example, Dampier (and you see what HE looks like playing next to Duncan) will average over 10 million a year for the next five years. Thats the kind of money it takes to sign a better than average free agent big.
The dudge makes more than Bruce Bowen.
That is a travesty.
Good, I hope he gets it. Somewhere else.
We have the same problem with Joel Przybilla who is much better than Nazr.
javtokas please. pass the nazr down the table.
sign and trade Mohammed.
Been beating that drum since March.
That works for me if it is the right player...certainly gives Nazr more options if he wants more than MLE...and if someone is willing to pay it and give up better value in return. The Spurs situation gives them the luxury of breaking the cardinal rule of never trading big for small...
We'll need Nazr if we get to the Pistons, and if he plays big for us in that series everyone will be saying that he's too valuable to part with.
Javtokas? I remember some high hopes for a guy named Oberto.
Javtokas > NAZR = CHEAPER TO EMPLOY, puts in 110% effort, all heart and muscles, physical presence, not a dropper, shoots bad fts = SPURS MATERIAL
MLE ain't much considering what his value might have been after last season...
Nazr wants a whole lot more than the MLE. He turned down more than that last summer from the Spurs.
I thought the Spurs reportedly offered five years/~$25M. That's less than the MLE.
I love that guy, I'd much rather see him here than Nazr or Rasho, 2.3 BPG, YES PLEASE!
who needs big guys these days?? shaq has one foot on the grave
Only 4 years I believe.
Chicago papers still talking about Nazr:
Nazr Mohammed figures to be worth watching, too, as the Spurs' starting center in the playoffs last year has played just 15 minutes in the series against the Mavs. The free agent from Kenwood High School figures to have seen enough of the Western Conference and might like to give the Bulls an additional inside presence.

Sign and trade with the Bulls. Lets get Ben Gordon.
It would be a minor steal if the Spurs signed Nazr for the MLE.
As mentioned, there are few even serviceable big men available. Heck, Rasho is set to average over $7.5 million over the next three years.
While Nazr is not the best center, he does know his role, he rebounds at both ends, and he generally doesn't do anything he can't do.
Teams like Chicago, Toronto, and New Orleans would be willing to pay over the MLE for Nazr. And, there are plenty of other NBA teams that will offer him the entire MLE.
They'd better not let him walk. You don't let valuable assets walk without some compensation. The Spurs are a SMART organization and I fully expect them to at least attempt a S&T with whatever team wants Nazr. It's imperative they get something back in return.
Not always. If they would rather spend the money of guys they have had stashed in Europe than on anyone the team can trade for- they could let him walk, especially if some team with cap room wants him and does not want to make a deal. The Spurs signed Rob and Rasho that summer with no deals with LA or Minnesota because they had the cap room to do so and had no interest in trading anyone.
Oberto has improved over the season. With more playing time next season, I think he'll do ok, though certainly not the semi-savior we originally hoped for.
