To help out you can put SF's who are on the trading block. These are only the FAs.

No Williams had to exercise his option for the trade with Toronto to work.
I don't think he's ever played a lick of SF time, nor does he have the body of a SF.Maciej Lampe, Houston (Restricted)
Maciej plays Center.
All around, not a very impressive list.
For the people who want Miles his contract is $32 Million for the next four years I think. So good luck thinking up a trade for that.
Where are Munch and Jamar?

Unless there is a trade or a Williams buyout in the works, I think the Spurs are done for this offseason. They have 14 players under contract, and if memory serves, they are butted right up against the LuxTax.
I agree. Unless Barry/Williams/Oberto are being traded, I don't think the Spurs are doing anything else. I'd really like them to do one trade though, and get a little younger.
Jumaine Jones or Qyntel Woods would fit in nicely with the Spurs.
I'd like them to either trade Williams for some youth, or offer him a customary 50% buyout and use the LLE to sign Woods. I think the net cap/tax effect of that would actually be negative, as the LLE is less than 50% of Williams' contract. They'll have about 5 weeks after his trade waiting period expires on 21 August to try a trade package before the team leaves for France.
WHy has everyone cooled off on Jumaine Jones? How about S+T him for one of our scrubs and a 2nd rounder?
I wouldnt mind seeing Matt Barnes come here for cheap.
Barnes can't shoot.
I like J Jones, but I'm not sure he'd be interested in the '08 plan the Spurs seem to be putting together.
Agree... but I think the FO is standing pat.
I'd take Q. Woods as soon as possible.
LLE is the right price (two years). He would clearly be the best offensive talented and the younger and the best rebounder of our small forwards...and I think the one year with Brown has been the best thing happened to his career.
I really like to get Jumaine Jones.
The interesting thing is that Charlotte will likely sign Hermann and with Morisson and Wallace, I don't see them re-signing JJ. There are too few team that can give (and will) give a big part of the MLE, maybe he will sign a deal like Stevenson or a S&T with Barry can be a good solution.
that list outside of JJ is really poor, man lets just bring elliot out of retirement, we'd be better off
Jumaine Jones, Charlotte - good option
Walter McCarty, LA Clippers - old
Laron Profit, LA Lakers - not listed on NBA player pages. Wonder why?
Qyntel Woods, New York -very talented, issues
Lee Nailon, Philadelphia - doper, not young
Ronald Dupree, Minnesota (Restricted) -signed
Maciej Lampe, Houston (Restricted) - not SF
George Lynch - no offense or shot
Calbert Cheaney, Golden State - beyond old...fossil
Matt Barnes, Philadelphia - can't shoot
Bryon Russell, Denver - fossil
Ndudi Ebi - young, still raw, ty agent
Donta Smith, Atlanta - young, raw
Sean Banks, New Orleans - ???
Terrence Morris, Orlando - talented, lazy, not young
Spending time with Hakeem and this is what he thinks.
"I think Ndudi was too young, too unprepared for the NBA the first time," Olajuwon said. "Now I see stronger, more confident moves. I tell him something one day, and he comes back the next day and uses it. I think he's ready."
Could be a better version of Sjax, he's young and he's cheap.

Ebi is the all around player that coaches love to have on their team. He brings a great deal of versatility to the game. At 6-9, he’s big enough to play inside but also athletic enough to play the wing. In terms of playing professionally, Ebi will likely play the small forward spot. He can handle the ball with little problems but will likely need to spend more time in that department in order to become a true threat at the small forward position.
Due to his size, he usually finds himself inside on both sides of the floor. Against smaller and quicker teams, Ebi stepped out to the wing and showed off his ball handling and high arching jump shot. His jumper is as sweet as they come. He has range from all parts of the floor. He works hard at getting points in the paint and does a nice job of elevating over his defender.
There will always be questions regarding his ability to handle much bigger and stronger players inside the paint. His slender build will create lopsided mismatches between himself and the usually bigger power forwards. Ebi did show off his post skills against the super huge 6-9, 275 star junior Al Jefferson this summer at the Nike Peach Jam. Ebi played the big man fairly well on the blocks, swatting Jefferson’s shot at least five times.
Ebi’s attention to helping out on the weak side on defense was also another reason why he had so much success defensively in the paint. His long arms certainly swayed potential shots away. His arms also got into the passing lanes, knocking the ball loose for a transition bucket. He has great body control despite playing with a bum knee.
The problem with Ebi is that his agent is Arn Tellem, arch-nemesis of Greg Popovich. Even if the Spurs sign him, start the countdown to when he leaves, because he will. Tellem is a "money" agent. He doesn't work with teams, he puts them on the rack. When Big Ben hired him, I knew he was leaving Detroit. I'd hate to sink developmental time and effort into a player who's agent WILL pull him to another team when his contract is up.
Calbert Cheaney would make the average age on the Spurs bench 53.
Jumaine Jones is an interesting option and he would be an excellent choice given the market and the resources available. Charlotte wants to get rid of a contract, and wants Wallace, Morrison and Hermann on the team. I read somewhere that Michael Jorden gave the OK for Hermann's contract (not signed yet, since they want to get rid of a contract first), so Jumaine Jones should be available.
I believe this is a good opportunity. I doubt the FO does anything though...
Ahhhhhhhh didn't know that.
