DJ_Money Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 This is why I think we should be after a trade with Dallas over the summer. They're still in search of a Center to play with Shaq, Duncan, ect. Theo isn't going to stop any of them. But, he's much better than LaFrentz or Bradley. Dallas has an extra piece in the backcourt. Why not Theo for Finley or Van Exel? Just for kicks, why not throw in Robinson and LaFrentz? JT/Finley/Newble/SAR/Lafrentz is good enough to be a top 4 team in the East. Nash/Van Exel/Robinson/Nowitski/Ratliff would be Dallas' starting 5, I presume. They could put Bell or Griffin at the 2 and continue to bring Van Exel off the bench. They've still got three legit scorers, and they've gotten better with their interior D. Robinson doesn't run as well as Finley, but Theo runs better than either C they have now.

Guest Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 Rumors abound that, unless the team really succeeds this post season (bare miniumum of Conference Finals), someone will be moved this year. I heard that they were possibly thinking about Finley or Nash...and I would have to lean towards Finley (of those two), esp. if it meant getting rid of the disappointing LaFrentz... BYC status (that will soon expire) makes checking things on the Checker difficult (esp. with LaFrentz) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KB21 Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 Why should we trade an asset like Theo and look to be just a top 4 team in the East? I thought the goal would be to be the best team in the NBA. We are a team that lacks defense as it is. It would be foolish to trade our best defensive player, even if we were to get Michael Finley in return. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 I'd rather have NVE...He brings something to this team we don't have...A player willing to step up when the game is on the line.Finley isn't that type of guy I don't think.Finley gets overrated by some.

Guest Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 Nick's cost them games as well...but you're right, he doesn't shy away from the spotlight. That being said, I'm not sure you can build a team around him...not sure that he has enough of the complete package...Finley is. He's blue collar, but he's a borderline superstar and about the best we can hope for short of a draft day coup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Diesel Posted May 11, 2003 Premium Member Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 Like I said... Lakers would get Ref friendly calls... Game 3 was a joke and Game 4, the Lakers are getting all kind of Phantom calls. Stay tuned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 Michael Finley isn't that good.He will not deliver when needed.I'm tired of the Smith/JT/SAR's.Lets get a player that wants to step up and win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 It's more like the Spurs just aren't that good.They're overrated.David Robinson is the biggest wimp to ever play in the NBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
