Title: Spurs/Blazers deal - wait until day 51 Post by: SpursGM-old on September 12, 2005, 04:19:56 PM Spurs trade:
Cole Sapp Jerry Stackhouse Blazers trade: Shareef Abdur-Rahim Blazers 2012 2nd rounder Spurs agree. Title: Spurs/Blazers deal - wait until day 51 Post by: BlazersGM on September 12, 2005, 04:25:40 PM Blazers agree
I got more depth and experience,Jerry will be a good backup for Fox,Harrington will be moved to PF as a backup for Zach,he's better backup then SAR at PF but i had to play him on SF due to lack of quality players,Sapp will be a great backup for Houbregs (i had to play 18 and 20 year old players before),so now when trade goes i got a good DC to finish season and depth will be especially important in my run to playoffs,too many youngsters on my team still Cunningham/LaFrentz, Randolph/Harrington, D.Fox/Stackhouse,Houbregs/Sapp and Telfair /J.Fox sounds much much better then my current DC Title: Spurs/Blazers deal - wait until day 51 Post by: SpursGM-old on September 12, 2005, 04:32:45 PM Basically I unload two players who were lucky to get off the IR for a scoring PF/SF to help with a playoff push. If nothing else I cleared an additional $2+ mil of cap space next summer.
Title: Spurs/Blazers deal - wait until day 51 Post by: NetsGM on September 12, 2005, 04:42:30 PM Love the trade for the Spurs. For a team that has historically had trouble scoring, SAR is basically the #2 pick in the draft (Stan Manning), who's proven himself to be one of the best points per minute scorers in the league.
For the Blazers, SAR just doesn't work. Not enough minutes and probalby can't d up at the 3. Sapp's an interesting player, with his ballhandling and all. Title: Spurs/Blazers deal - wait until day 51 Post by: RaptorsGM on September 12, 2005, 04:59:57 PM Damn.
My Spurs pick goes farther down in value. Title: Spurs/Blazers deal - wait until day 51 Post by: CelticsGM on September 12, 2005, 05:17:33 PM Good trade, works both ways.
For the Blazers, SAR wasn't needed anymore and Cole is on a low-risk audition for a season. Plus they still got a nice expiring ... For the Spurs, their resurgence continues. If you compare last mid-season roster (before Arenas) with this now, you can only call spursGM lead candidate for GMotY. They wont need SAR for more than backing up Mihm till but the postseason get's closer in a hurry here. Title: Spurs/Blazers deal - wait until day 51 Post by: NetsGM on September 12, 2005, 05:23:29 PM SAR's a nice compliment to their pre-existing frontcourt of Mihm and Thomas.
Title: Spurs/Blazers deal - wait until day 51 Post by: RaptorsGM on September 12, 2005, 05:25:10 PM With their team I'd be starting SAR at SF.
Title: Spurs/Blazers deal - wait until day 51 Post by: MavsGM on September 12, 2005, 05:26:10 PM What you do with Chase Russell then?
Title: Spurs/Blazers deal - wait until day 51 Post by: RaptorsGM on September 12, 2005, 05:29:51 PM Keep him on the bench. He's not a great player right now - but he certainly has the potneital to get there.
Title: Spurs/Blazers deal - wait until day 51 Post by: MavsGM on September 12, 2005, 05:32:19 PM I could see them giving up 105pts with SAR's D.
Title: Spurs/Blazers deal - wait until day 51 Post by: SpursGM-old on September 12, 2005, 05:41:57 PM I can bring SAR off the bench at both PF & SF.
Thomas/Mihm/Thomas Mihm/SAR/Hobson Russell/SAR/Russell Arenas/Schabinger/Arenas Parker/Claxton/Claxton If I want D at SF I can still use Strickland...but he has been struggling with his shot this year.

And the amazing part is that I have replaced Nesterovic, Stackhouse & Dench with Mihm, Arenas, Claxton and SAR. And basically all it cost me was 2 draft picks. |
