Wow, didn't see this coming. The Spurs will benefit a lot player wise. And the Bucks get cap. Looks alright from both sides.

[shadowgrin]

Whoa.
Finally, Joe Alexander gets some significant playing time.
And the Spurs, if healthy, are damn good again.

[Donatello]

Holy crap, what an exciting trade. This could be just what the Spurs need to really get back 'in there'.

[JaoSming]

that is a fine trade right there, and great news for Joey boy.

[vinceair]

I am very glad to see this happen
Spurs will be serious contender next year! Yes baby!

[kibaxx7]

I love the trade. Who starts at center? Duncan or Gooden? The lineup would be Parker, Ginobili, RJ, Duncan, Gooden? Maybe Bonner?

[shadowgrin]

Parker, Mason, Jefferson, Duncan, Bonner probably. With Ginobili, Gooden, and Finley coming off the bench. George Hill is pretty decent too.
Spurs, they is deep.

[vinceair]

Maybe we can see Spurs vs Magic finals.

[tee-pane]

This is just what the Spurs needed, a wing that could score 20 every game. The West is getting tougher.

[dopeboy]

Great addition to Spurs. I think that RJ fits that team perfectly. Bucks also got what they wanted, but I don't see them making major improvement. Spurs will, that's for sure.

[Jackal]

Shit.

[vinceair]

Shit.

2009/10 Western conference finals:
Spurs vs Lakers= 4-2

[Jackal]

Dude, go fuck yourself. Honestly.

Don't be buddy, buddy with me. I don't like you, so don't come "joking" with me.

[vinceair]

Dude, go fuck yourself. Honestly.

Don't be buddy, buddy with me. I don't like you, so don't come "joking" with me.

I even don't want to be buddy with you. And that wasn't joke.

[Jackal]

Well then go fuck yourself twice now. Not only are you a moron, you're supposedly psychic now too.

[sucram]

even don't want!

excellent trade for san antonio though

[Lamrock]

Wow. What a good trade on both sides. San Antonio likely goes back to being #2 in the West. This move could backfire though. Will it Benji?

[Brave Sir Rubin]

That's a great trade all-around. Really nice to see such a good and rather balanced trade happen in the NBA.
Jefferson wasn't a good fit with the Bucks, and he will be a sensational fit with the Spurs who have been rather weak at the 3 ever since Elliot left.

I applaud both teams for this one.

[Null17]

A good start to my morning right there.

[Its_asdf]

The Spurs were slowly letting more and more Western teams make strides into contenders while they stayed relatively consistent, but they've started to taper off with age recently. This trade is definitely rejuvenating them back to near the top in the West.

[NovU]

Great. Bowen and Finley now can retire.

[MikeMan™]

Damn !
Spurs seriously wants another ring aye !?
This trade makes me want to watch Spurs' Games again . . .
The Duncan-lead Spurs was so boring to watch . . .

It still is the Duncan-led Spurs. But as a Nets fan I'm happy to see that RJ's getting the respect and coverage he deserves. He's always been an excellent player and if he wasn't the third wheel in NJ for so long he would've become an All-Star a long time ago, imo.

i dont see how this is a balanced trade

[MikeMan™]

Bowen + Thomas = RJ ?
I need a calculator here to balance this out .
