Where did you get the idea of a trading thread from? The Spurs dont have much to offer, thats the thing. The Management seems to like all of the players.
i think the spurs might make a trade if they can't resolve the playing time issue with sjax and manu. also i'm sure they wouldn't mind getting malik rose's contract off the books, especially if they can get someone like JO on the team.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting "shapecity":</div><div class="quote_post">i think the spurs might make a trade if they can't resolve the playing time issue with sjax and manu. </div> what issue? maybe the issue between the spurs and all those people in argentina who think ginobili should start (slight bias, huh) i dont think they'll make any trades, they'll pick up some free agents though
i guess you didn't see sjax sulking in the mavs series when manu was playing down the stretch. he refused to go into the huddle and sat away from everyone else. it will be an issue the spurs need to address in the off-season. neither player wants to come off the bench.
No trades will be made...and you mention Sjax..but spurs wouldn't be at this stage if it wasn't for him....anyways he is a free-agent this summer...so he could just leave if he gets the ring Sjax has the same agent as stephon marbury....so he might end up in phoenix....
yeah sjax is one of the main reasons the spurs are better this year, that's why he doesn't want to play second fiddle to ginobili. i don't think he would go to phoenix, they have too many SG's already. hopefully the spurs can find a way for both manu and sjax to co-exist and make them understand it's all about the rings and not personal achievements.
sjax was doing a little sulking in the dallas series, jax is good but ginobili has more of an all around game & doesn't turn the ball over near as much, he should be the starter not jax
Jackson is a FA after this season so the Spurs most likely won't do any trading...Ginobili will be the starter next season that's why SJax will try and sign with Phoenix next season...
Sjax has been too good for spurs this year to come off the bench...he likes phoenix alot..he is good friends with marbury...i expect him to go there and sign shame as that means no more free tickets for spurs home games
but why pay hardaway a ton of money to sit on the bench he is still good when healthy and joe johnson would be as good if he got the playing time. they drafted jacobson in the first round last year so he needs more playing time.
They want to improve their team..having a player like Sjax will clearly help anyone and improve that team...he can hit the three and can attack..i just hope he stays with spurs.
I want him to stay with the spurs too, but Ginobli is good, hard decision, it wouldn't surprise me if he goes.
