He's going back to LA? Hey, he was there before when they won a world title.

They're talking to him. Going to be interesting for LA in the summer.

BTW, what do you know about Jamal Crawford?

The Spurs sign Brent Barry.

While i would have preferred Kobe Bryant(pipe dream) i am definately happy with Barry.

The guy's a deadly 3-point shooter and is versatile enough to run back-up point, which is a definate weakness for our team.

Gawd, imagine how many open looks he's gonna have as teams double down on Duncan. The guy's also a slasher and creater, who can drive and dish pretty dang well for a white boy.

I like the signing and the re-signing of Manu. If they'd pick up a solid role-player type big i'd be very happy heading into next season.

Especially with shaq going to Miami.

Kitso
KS 361 more Spurs titles i'm hoping for

Guy can play a bit - has been around 17 points, 5 assists a game with Chicago. The question is, is he a point guard? Shooting guard? Can he play ANY defense?

He'll score in spurts and has some definite talent - the question is whether he can put it together consistently. If they can get him for a good price, he's a solid pickup. He's still really young too.

Kenyon Martin might be on his way to the Nuggets.

If they don't match. I've been following this whole thing really closely and I've got my fingers and toes crossed.

Something about Shaq in the Eastern Conference makes me think he could put up HUGE numbers. The Shaq/Ben Wallace and Shaq/Jermaine O'Neal matchups could be fun to watch, but that's about it center-wise in the East.

Now that's it's been picked up by every major news outlet it must be pretty damn official.

I am one happy little Nuggets fan right now.

Three first round picks though...that's really counting on the fact that Martin will push them over the top. If the draft isn't that deep the next three years, then it works out.

It's a good addition...but that's a bunch of picks to give up.

Magics - Lakers game is going to be a hoot.

True. They wanted Nene so at first it seemed like a great deal. The long term might not work out so well. Kiki Vandewhege said they were going to have to take some gambles to get to the next level. So... they gambled.

Anyone else just get physically ill when they watch a Jim Gray-Kobe Bryant interview. I hate the fact that he's trying to have the Howard Cosell-Ali relationship with him. He tosses up so many softballs to him it's ridiculous.

Ali he ain't. Bryant wish he could come close to what Ali represent for his sport.
