[timvp]

no. Darko sucks and has a horrible contract.

However, as is being discussed in the trade thread, the Spurs trading for Miller makes sense.

[MaNu4Tres]

Now that you changed it. I agree it would make us better. It would give us a lot more consistant 4th option thats for sure.

[Buddy Holly]

Ok, Swift. I just had Darko there because he's a legit 7 feet.

[timvp]

Ok, Swift.

Already traded.

[Buddy Holly]

I don't think that would make us better.

It clears up the logjam we have at the two, it gives us a legit three point threat and an all around good shooter. He's a younger, better Barry.

[djohn14]

Darko wasnt even in your trade, yet somehow he is our center! LOL its ok I now what you mean, but no they wouldnt do that....well I dont know, they took Kwame Brown.

[Buddy Holly]

Already traded.

He was?

[mardigan]

To New Jersey today for Collins

[MoSpur]

He was traded to New Jersey for Collins. Should be completed by Monday from what I understand.

[MaNu4Tres]

Barry Finley for Mike Miller

Or Barry Udoka Bonner ( or elson) for Mike Miller maybe

[Buddy Holly]

Finley
Elson
Horry

for

Samuel Dalembert

Barry
Bonner

for

Miller

[MaNu4Tres]

Pop would hurt Finley and Horry's feelings so I doubt it. Family before business.

[MaNu4Tres]

Plus I wouldn't want Dalemberts deal that pays him over 44 mil the next 4 years with Splitter coming in next year and the improvement of Mahimni. I rather sign a bonified stud to a contract for 10-12 mil a year in 2010.

I would rather trade Elson Bonner Vaughn for Kurt Thomas.

Then trade Barry Finley and pick for Mike Miller

[T Park]

Yeah trade Finley who took less money, shots, and PT for a guy who sucks in the playoffs and whos asshole shrinks up at the slightest bit of pressure.

[T Park]

I'd rather swing a deal for Kurt Thomas before anyone else.

Mike Miller would be ok for just for Barry, but adding in anyone else? screw it

[spursfan09]

I wouldn't want Finley or Horry to be traded. Those are veterans who will turn it on come playoffs. You know they will...

[atxrocker]

Mike Miller would be ok for just for Barry, but adding in anyone else? screw it

uh, yeah... that sounds like a trade any GM would jump on

[MaNu4Tres]

Finley was known for sucking in the playoffs when he was in his prime with Dallas. But I agree Pop would never trade Finley for the reasons you mentioned. Pop is a loyal man which is respectable. I was just throwing it out there. I'd love Kurt Thomas, I got into it with you justifying for Kurt Thomas about a week ago lol. Kurt Thomas could defend the out of David West, Amare, Dirk, Sheed, KG, Gasol. And he would allow do what Tim does best, play help side. Kurt Thomas' defense in the post is underrated. He would be an improvement over any big we have and can hit the midrange like Robinson could while Duncan is on the block.

[The Truth #6]

Mike Miller is solid but nothing outstanding. I wouldn't give up the farm just for him, and there's no reason to give up Ime. He's a bargain considering what he's been bringing to the court.

[The Truth #6]

Pop isn't always loyal considering he was about to trade David Robinson. He has unusual bromances with players that don't make sense, but when does love have to make sense?

If thats the case ..

I'd do this and I could care less on T parks opinion, it would make us better..


Trade Barry Bonner and a 1st round pick for Kurt Thomas

then

Trade Finley Elson Vaughn and a pick for Mike Miller


We would then have a lineup like this:

Parker/ Stoudamire
Miller/ Manu
Bowen/Udoka
Tim/ Oberto
Kurt Thomas/ Horry/ Mahimni


then bring back Richardson from Fort Wayne to make it 12.

In my opinion this team is better than the team we have now.

What do yall think?

[Bruno]

To me, the deal that makes most sense for Spurs and Grizzlies is Elson + Barry + incentives for Miller.
The question is what amount of incentives Memphis want and what Spurs are ready to give up ?
A first round pick? Splitter? Mahinmi? A combination of that?

The Lakers trade could also change a little Spurs approach towards trade. While spurs could lose some height against Suns, Mavs or Celtics, they need to keep this height to match up with Lakers. I guess that this trade could make Spurs less ready to give up Elson if they don't get a big man in exchange.

[Holt's Cat]

Agreed. I don't see the Spurs giving up two swingmen for Miller.

That seems a bit pricey for giving a team cap room for a guy with a bad back.

[MaNu4Tres]

Agreed. I don't see the Spurs giving up two swingmen for Miller.

So you wouldn't trade two very inconsistent swing men for a solid, consistent 15 point swingmen who shoots 50 percent and 43 percent from 3?? .....When we have 5 wings. If you look at it come April, May, and June all 5 wings won't play anyway. Udoka or Barry will sit. So that makes a wing expendable with the somewhat emergence of Udoka.
