Jackson #7 Spurs trade: Snow #5 Title: Pacers - Spurs trade - processed Post by: PacersGM on March 21, 2005, 11:19:42 AM Pacers agree.
We trade Jackson for Snow because we have a need for a pg (also shorter contract) and end up with a better pick. Title: Pacers - Spurs trade - processed Post by: GoldenStateGM on March 21, 2005, 11:24:06 AM Jackson is a pretty decent SF/SG, so the Spurs got a player there.
Snow is a great ball handler, but a liability everywhere else. But moving up 2 spots may get the player that the Pacers have targeted. The Pacers and the Bulls are now the big wild cards in the top of the lottery. Title: Pacers - Spurs trade - processed Post by: SpursGM-old on March 21, 2005, 11:38:16 AM Jackson helps solidify my swing positions...Ginobili, Jackson & George. I take on 1 additional year of salary and dump Snow who couldn't get off my bench.
Also I still can get a top point guard...Ellis, Mercer or Schenk...at the 7 spot. If they are all 3 gone then that means Griffin will be available. :D Title: Pacers - Spurs trade - processed Post by: NetsGM on March 21, 2005, 03:20:36 PM I think the Spurs did great on this one. Jackson's a nice player he's added for many years, and he should still get one of the players he wants.
For the Spurs, it obviously makes sense if they get a guy they thought they couldn't before. But Jackson is a far better player than Snow. Title: Pacers - Spurs trade - processed Post by: RaptorsGM on March 21, 2005, 04:13:21 PM Hmm..wonder who Pacers will take with 5? This could end my shot at Griffin, but make Ellis availabe again.
Although the Pacers really need a PG. |
