    There have been talks lately about the Spurs interests in Bob Sura (Pistons) and Charlie Ward (Knicks). Ron Mercer would most likely be sent in exchange. Which one do you guys think would be a better fit? Do you think they should just leave the team the way is is?

    Charlie Ward seems to be a better deal to me, but they may have to battle the Rockets for him...

    I agree charlie ward is a very good veteran, He has good knowledge and is a very good point guard, who can pass and hit the three, i think he could be good for our backup PG, Tony, Ron mercer is a good player, but i think charlie can help the teams in many ways, sura o the other hand canot hit threes, is inconsistent, and looks lost on the court, i tink he would hurt us, i'd much rather we fight for ward!

    keep mercer...i honestly dont know why SA wants to get rid of him.He is instant offense , something the SPURS lack.He is a nice cushion to rely on when either Hedo , Bowen , or Manu are having bad games...or when our offense needs some help.He has bailed our offense out quite a few times...remember the 1st game of this streak against Orlando where he had like 8 straight pts. for the SPURS to start off the 4th qtr...I say keep #33 , or get someone more valuable...Sura and Ward are not in Mercer's league.

    I'd have to agree, he has been playing better as of late amongst the likes of say Vin Baker and Vosho Leonard, he's far more useful right now and is use to the team as they are use to him. It'd be wrong to do so at such a critical time anyway, players are just as important as coaches, if they get changed too often it might disrupt certain aspects of the team.
