Congrats...you are the first on my ignore list...
And McDyess.
Show me where I said that or shut the up.Wait -- you WANTED to play Smitty over Jack?
Weak ass can't use my own words so you make up your own. you.
Yawn.ANOTHER ING GEM!!!!!! Thanks for the laughs!Your dream of a Kerr/Barry/Heal backcourt rotation wouldn't get much done either.
Congrats...you are the first on my ignore list...
He played 24 minutes. We missed out on a whole 3 ing minutes of Dice. Keep fishing. Besides YOU SAID DERRICK COLEMAN IS A KEY PLAYER FOR THE PISTONS!!!!!And McDyess.Scroll up. Either you want it to happen all the time or you don't. Oh, that's right -- you have to have it both ways every time.Show me where I said that or shut the up.
If you want to play up the analogies, it's just as conceivable that Barry=Smitty, Devin=Jack and Beno=Kerr. Who knows? If Beno can play both sides of the ball in his first year given his obvious shortcomings, why the can't Barry?
That hole is getting pretty deep....
STOP DIGGING
Be glad...we only won that game by 3 points...and probably would have lost it if nor for Barry's clutch FT's.
I said he's a key player when McDyess is injured and Ben Wallace is returning from a 5 game layoffs. How hard is this to figure out? Romain Sato becomes a key player for us if enough people get injured.Keep fishing. Besides YOU SAID DERRICK COLEMAN IS A KEY PLAYER FOR THE PISTONS!!!!!
I don't have to scroll up...You asked me if I wanted to play Smitty over Jax...and I want you to show me where I said that .Scroll up. Either you want it to happen all the time or you don't. Oh, that's right -- you have to have it both ways every time.
In that case then why are you arguing with me about trading him? Sounds like you are the one who wants Smitty.If you want to play up the analogies, it's just as conceivable that Barry=Smitty, Devin=Jack and Beno=Kerr.
I don't know, why couldn't AJ shoot threes...Who knows? If Beno can play both sides of the ball in his first year given his obvious shortcomings, why the can't Barry?
You miss the entire point yet again...it's not that Brent Barry won't learn to play D...it's that he's not ever going to be better than Devin...and my problem with this is not that Devin gets more minutes...indeed I think Devin should start...it's Pop isn't going to use him except sparingly...I don't mean a reduction in minutes...I mean total garbage minutes or deep ice on the bench...he's going to use him like he used Kerr for the better part of 4 years.
Why do that do the guy?
Guy was classy, he took less to come here...
and you bunch of assholes want to him for it. I'm not the ahole here...ya'll are. You don't seem to realize that this is San Antonio, you seem to have forgotten that two years ago we couldn't buy an outside FA of note...You can't just screw guys over...on top of that he's too expensive for that role.
I'm sure this is pure speculation on the part of Chad Ford. Everyone knows that Brent Barry is going to be a key player for the Spurs this season.
thank you
Damn, whott is tearing this topic up, I'll just sit back and watch.And no I did not think our O looked shaky until the Detroit game when Pop refused to play Beno or Barry hardly at all...it's a clear pattern that is what he is going to do in big games this season...even if it's the second night of a back to back.
Barry is an awesome transition player, he is an awesome offensive player efficiency wise..even if his shot does not fall...there's a reason we rolled over teams, non stop so early in the season and IMO Barry was the biggest reason why.
But Pop doesn't care about that.
If we trade Barry I hope it's to someone in the West. That way I can laugh my ass off at Pop's "all defense, all the time" mind when it blows up in his face yet again while Barry goes postal on us and lends a leading hand in sending us home earlier.
We go lose a game, have the collapse against Detroit, and Pop stubbornly looks past his vanilla, motion is the plague of humanity inspired offense and thinks it's about the defense.
in' A....
How can anyone take anything Chad Ford says seriously after his daily "LeBron sucks and Darko's the next Bird" articles a couple of years ago?
Don't mind whottt, he's just in love with all things white: Barry, Kerr, Heal, wrestling, Dubya, and The Coyote (you know his ass don't live on Eastside. Oh wait, according to his biography The Coyote lives "in a lavish den outside Loop 1604"). I rest my case.
I definatly can see the Spurs taking a look at what teams are offering if in deed teams are interested in Barry. Who knows, the front office might bite on some deal that's been offered. I'm not off the Barry bandwagon and I still think that he's going to be an important player down the stretch for us, it's nothing wrong with listening for something R.C. and Pop might like.
I also read in some local newspaper (not from S.A.) that the Spurs sent Lance Blanks to scout a Bulls game. I don't know if it's anything credable, but one might think it's concerning Rasho and possibly some of the Bulls big man (Curry or Chandler).
Probably nothing but this time is always interesting because trade rumors are flying around the league.
Blanks might have scouted them before the Spurs played them the other week.
Wha? The Spurs were running motion in that game when Detroit made their run.
What the is wrong with emphasizing defense and offensive execution, especially when you are sitting on a lead? The Spurs have lost their leads in no small part to running that ever impressive motion offense.
I don't see how anyone could have watched the Spurs up to this point in the season and believe they are running strictly an inside outside halfcourt offense. WTF?
No one said it was strictly inside-outside, just that every time Pop's nuts shrink he goes back to his four down security blanket. Manu's not even getting the touches in the offense he used to in the big games.
I thought it was the Creme Bruele or whatever that got Kerr off the bench.
Steve Smith, G, Bobcats
The Bobcats signed Smith to be a mentor to one of the youngest teams in the league. But that isn't the whole story. Last summer, most GMs were convinced Smith was teetering on retirment. With sore knees and plenty of wear and tear, it wasn't like GMs were beating down his door. Smith claims he chose the Bobcats, but the truth is the Bobcats also chose him.
Smith has been great in Charlotte, averaging a surprising 22 mpg, and shooting a sizzling 44 percent from the 3-point arc. You think a team with championship aspirations – a team like the Heat, Pistons or even the Nuggets – wouldn't like some of that? GM and head coach Bernie Bickerstaff claims he'll let Smith go if that's what the veteran wants to do. It should be a tough choice for Smith. He can play big minutes on a bad team, or play a smaller role on a good one. If a team offers the right deal, Bickerstaff, who is building for the future, might have no choice but to say yes.
ok this may be a bad idea but the guy is shooting lights out this season. steve smith'd d sucks but he can atleast be a good mentor and help players with their outside shooting and free throws. if smith is only signed thru this year would the bobcats take a pick and barry for him. then the spurs would have cap relief if they let smith out.
ducks are you sparking up the lettuce again?
hey atleast he can play a steve kerr role
barry can not do that yet
If Bernie were smart he'd go offer Smitty to the Pistons for Darko. Worth the gamble for Charlotte, and it's not like Larry's gonna play Milicic anytime soon.
I hope you aren't referring to me? Bwhahaha!
This is light compared to last season when the entire board piled on for me wanting to keep your boy Shane Heal over Anthony Carter...as you can see...they still dwell on that heavily. Where were you then?
Dumb...how conveniently you forget that I raised about us not resigning Jax last season...and also this season(until it was pointed out to me that Jack made it impossible for us to keep him).
And I also do a similar defense of Horry...so don't pull the race card, it's cheap and weak...even by your standards.
Good lord...get of the quack ducks...now. Steve Smith? Steve Smith!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!
WTH is wrong with you ducks? What happened to ducks the genius?
Steve Smith? Steve bloody Smith? Smitty? Stevie the Brick? How can anyone say they want Smitty back.
Play the Steve Kerr role? He couldn't 2 years ago...or 3, what makes you think anything has changed?
Some +/- stats are interesting Spurs are +4.0 when Barry's on the court -- but +16.0 when he isn't. That net differential of -12.0 is only above Wilks and Massenburg. Horry is the only bench player with a net positive. To be sure, there are floor combinations including Barry that are great -- but we aren't at the point in the season where those kinds of choices are set in stone. Let us now begin anew the firestorm, this time with stats. IMO, this is much ado about nothing.
For who? How about Steve Smith--now averaging 22ppg and 44% on threes.
Just kidding.
What's Devin's on court +/-? And Malik's?
