http://www.spurstalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=143211 Take it what its worth but they did post hours before many knew about the jefferson trade and even when the camby trade almost went down its been alot of forum websites also I call BS to be honest with yall
Duncan has been playing the 5 for a while, they just always list him at the 4 no matter what. Even when DeJuan Blair is starting, Duncan will still be listed as a power forward on the box-scorea, when he's really a center. It's fine by me, I don't really care. If Tim Duncan cares, let him care.
David West for expiring contracts? If getting under LT is their goal. The Hornets can just salary dump Hilton Armstrong's expiring contract plus either Devin Brown, or Diogu or Marks or Bobby Brown or Thornton.
Yea agree, its pretty much known the Hornets are STRUGGLING financially and need to get rid of West before the deadline but if Roger Mason Jr is the best player there getting back...its Gasol to the Lakers all over again.
What Jefferson trade? The Richard Jefferson trade happened months ago. That thread is from today. Edit: Nevermind, I think I see what you're saying. You're legitimizing the source I assume.
I could of swore I read somewhere in one of the GARM threads where the CP3 talk was going on that if West was moved or something, CP3 would become unhappy[and perhaps ask for a trade]? Any truth to this or anyone know what I'm talking about? Thanks
If NO's gonna move West, does that make CP3 available....cause he'd probably be pissed since he'll be the only all star on the team.
No matter what happens, NO won't let go of CP3. They would have no identity, no relevance in the league without him. Which is why they are trying to get rid of D. West first. They'd rather have an unhappy CP3 than lose tons of money.
West hasn't been playing all that well this year (the game against our Rox the other day notwithstanding) so I see this as a possibility. Surely they aren't going anywhere as is and have to be losing $ hand over fist. Spurs have needed to realize that Duncan is a 5 for a long time. They need to quit playing so many semi athletic swing men and find some athletic 4 that rebound his position and make some plays in the paint and mid paint. If that person is West then his offense is just a plus. Maybe not as long a player as I think they need but the need to stop playing Duncan with another slow big or Duncan with the 4 guards thing.
