linkSuccessful Trade Scenario
Congratulations on a successful trade.
Due to New Jersey and San Antonio being over the cap, the 25% trade rule is invoked. New Jersey and San Antonio had to be no more than 125% plus $100,000 of the salary given out for the trade to be accepted, which did happen here. This trade satisfies the provisions of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
Since clearly the Spurs have fallen behind in the Western Conference 'trade for the oldest former franchise player' wars and Ghost is wigging out, the Spurs must make this trade. This would give the Spurs a lot of short run pub. Plus a Frenchman can never be a true "balla".

I'm pretty ing sick and tired of this .
You are setting me up here, but I'll bite:
Trade approved.
You get a walking triple-double that would kill his wife (literally) for a ring in return for the French Phenom and you can still clear Kidd off the books before the big 2010 free agency rush.
We know Kidd and Duncan dig each other.
Eh... thinking further...
Would Kidd's skill set work in our motion offense?
Just asking.
I would hate to see his playmaking stifled.
In that case, he would not really be worth upsetting the apple cart.
Although his court savvy and rebounding for a guard is unparelelled.
No thanks.
Parker is an all star 20 point a game guy.
After Kidd is gone, in the summer of 09 there isn't for PGs to get.
So the Spurs break up the Big 3 that has brought the Spurs 3 les in the last 5 seasons for someone who already had his chance to be a part of it in SA? For the next two le runs? Who are they going to replace Kidd with in 2009?
I'm pretty sure Kidd would fit in the offense. Who are the Spurs going to replace him with in 2009?
So 35 year old Kidd > 26 year old Parker?
I thought the Spurs needed to get "younger"?
Uh... yes.
The Spurs have seemed to right the ship with Parker not playing.
What could they do with Kidd.
I'll worry about 2009 in 2009.
Either offer Kidd a modest extension or wait for 2010's big free agent frenzy, where they'd potentially have Kidd off the books for a max contract.
Thats fantastic, in 09 when the Spurs have no point guard Duncan and Ginobili aging and no one to help shoulder the load, IE Tony Parker.I'll worry about 2009 in 2009.
Great future.
That's just a couple regular season games with Ginobili playing out of his mind.
No, we must worry now.

Who comes with that max contract? They tried that in 2003 and we saw what happened. Kidd will be 200 years old in 2009 why are the Spurs extending him? Don't they need a youth movement?Either offer Kidd a modest extension or wait for 2010's big free agent frenzy, where they'd potentially have Kidd off the books for a max contract.
you guys should keep debating on the million trade threads you started!
Why don't the Spurs just trade everyone for the Minnesota Timberwolves?!?! Get some youth!!! Actually why don't we just trade franchises with them? They can have the entire Spurs franchise and we'll take all the Timberwolves guys! We'll be the San Antonio Timberwolves!!! YES!!! and maybe we can sign Kobe and LeBron and Shaq and Steve Nash and put a big ing ferris Wheel in the middle of the court so fans can watch from there and then install trap doors in the court and pyrotechnic flames that shoot out of the floor periodically and an alligator pit out of bounds!!! yEA!!!
Holt's Cat, I am not worried with Kidd on this team now.
I hear you about not being able to bring in a star in 2010, but I would be willing to take my chances in 2 summers to get an All-Star who wants a ring badly now.
Essentially it's Parker for Kidd and cap space as early as 2009.
Hhhhhmm... seeing how the Spurs have managed without Parker in the past month, I would do it.
Scared money don't make none.
P.S.
I know there are homers here that might agree with me, but are too afraid to post.
P.P.S.
You might even do this deal, Holt's.
This board went into the ter fast.
Well, you did show up.
This idea hasn't gotten any better in the past five years. We need Tony's scoring from the point, period. Without him our offense is anemic. Duncan would be permanently doubled with Kidd running the point. There is no reason to respect Jason Kidd's offense from the field and he's too old and slow to get to the painted area. Parker helps Duncan not with great dishes, but by having a game himself that commands a little respect.
Under Kidd we would need Ginobili to be hot every night. We have a better team now with Parker, nine years of youth and a future to build around.
I can't believe that MB's trap has worked.
Parker's been an All-Star.
Could the Spurs even land a player as good as Parker in 2009? They had max cap room in 2003 and they ended up with Radoslav Nesterovic.
What are the Spurs "making" with their money in that case? Parker at the helm has resulted in 3 les in the last 5 seasons and he's under contract through 2011.Hhhhhmm... seeing how the Spurs have managed without Parker in the past month, I would do it.
Scared money don't make none.
Nope. The Spurs are currently set to have flexibility in 2010 to replenish the supporting cast around the Big 3. Kidd had his shot.P.S.

Experience, my friend.
Even if Parker came out and said he would force a trade in 09-10, no way in I'd trade him for Kidd.
dumbest thread ever.....that is all
I stated my case... the trade looks better now, because Kidd could be off the books in 2009.
We're winning without Parker now.
