    for making the right choice to joining the Spurs. Hopefully their decisions will help other badass free agents will follow suit and join the spurs and win more les along side tony, manu, and tim.

    Pryzbilla and Mourning were available last summer. I'd say they're both better than Elson.

    Judging from the salaries doled out, no.

    He does run fast though.

    At this point we can hope that a Pietrus or Posey would be willing to sign up this summer for MLE $.

    o yeah thats right...i liked elson anyways simply cuz he was younger, and didnt mourning just come off a knee injury? And i never heard much out of Joel Przybilla, just only when we play against him and thats it

    Based on Oberto's improved play of late I'm expecting Elson to be an all-star next year.

    Elson was a badass free agent?? He was like plan G.

    The other problem with your premise is that Finley turned down Miami and they won last year.

    I say we keep all our centers unless something really good comes along. They are cheap and the game doesnt require a super big man anymore (other than Tim of course!)

    In the same vein as the OP, you would have to give props to Rasho for giving up $10M to join the Spurs to win a championship-- or to Barry for the few million he gave up as well to join the team. Elson didn't give up anything to be on the Spurs and didn't turn down a team who really wanted him to stay with them.

    I think the one key for the Spurs this summer will be if they can find someone to groom to be the primary perimeter defender. Bruce is still doing a great job, but they've put this off long enough.

    Elson is trash....a third string center. The Spurs did make a great move on a Center last off-season though...I can only hope that Butler works his ass off during the summer and beats that "deer" out in the rotation.

    I'm gonna try to find out after the Finals what the real deal is with James White, how much progress he's truly making. I've heard indirectly from Pop that he's a hard worker and has improved since being with the team...but I still get leery and anxious when he takes the floor as if he's dancing on eggs s, which he sort of was during his first year. I'm still pissed (not really) at White for skipping a class during the conference tournament his senior year and having to miss a round of the Big East tournament...which Cincinnati lost. When I tell my UC fellow alumni about his work ethic and potential with the Spurs, nobody is surprised. He's pure basketball.

    Everything I've seen tells me James is on schedule. We'll see if he's really on the Jack/Brown plan if he's the focus of the summer league team that they were.
