Spurs Make Reactionary Trade


Kurt Thomas used to defend against Tim Duncan and the San Antonio Spurs. Now Kurt is Joining The Spurs.

The San Antonio Spurs have reached agreement with the SuperSonics that will bring them center Kurt Thomas in exchange for guard Brent Barry, center Francisco Elson and a 2009 first-round draft pick, league sources said Wednesday.

The teams are in the process of finalizing the deal with league officials.

By acquiring Thomas, the Spurs get some needed size to help them counter Phoenix’s Shaquille O’Neal and Houston’s Yao Ming. They also are expected to drop under the luxury-tax threshold, possibly saving them about $2 million. In exchange, San Antonio will send the Sonics a portion of the savings.

While Barry has been sidelined with a calf injury, Ime Udoka has taken his place in the rotation and proven to be a dependable contributor with his defense and 3-point shooting. Elson’s inconsistency limited his role with the Spurs this season.

The Sonics, who also considered an offer from the Orlando Magic for Thomas, have now generated three first-round draft picks from Rashard Lewis’ sign-and-trade deal last summer.

Dallas Should Be Ashamed!

There Was No Love For Dallas On Valentine's Day. Dallas lost To Phoenix Last Night on both the hardwood and the ice rink.

In Hockey, The Phoenix Coyotes Defeated The Dallas Stars 5-2.




In Basketball, Amare Stoudemire was just too much for Dallas as the Phoenix Suns beat the Mavericks 109-97.

Dallas Should Be Ashamed! Never mind they were on the road for both of these games, but the fact that they lost to the same city in Two Different Sports in Mind Boggling! I Can't remember the last time anything close to this ever happened!

Dallas Should Be Ashamed!

Shaq On The Move



Shaquille O'Neal will be traded to the Phoenix Suns for Shawn Marion and Marcus Banks once he passes a physical.

How will this trade work out for both teams? For The Suns, they will have to quit "Running And Gunning" when Shaq is on the floor. Shaq dosen't have the legs to run up and down the floor, but he can still clean the glass. This trade also means Amare Stoudemire will move back to his Natural Position of Power Forward. Shaq will be 36 next month and is nursing nagging injuries, and the fact that he may end up slowing down this Suns offense can't be good news for them. I honestly don't think this will be a good deal for the Suns. They could have acquired Kevin Garnett and were in talks with Philly for Samuel Dalembert. To settle on The "Red Giant" form of Shaquille O'Neal is puzzling to say the least.

Shaq still has the desire for that NBA Championship. He Said he felt his career would be incomplete without five rings.

For The Miami Heat, they get to close the book on this dissapointing season. The Heat have the worst record in the NBA (9-37)two seasons after Shaq and D-Wade lead the Heat to the NBA Finals.

The Heat also get one of the best young stars in the league In Shawn Marion and Marcus Banks.

Marion asked to be traded over the summer after the the team turned down his request for a three-year, $60 million contract. He also has become disgruntled in recent seasons with the attention directed toward superstars Steve Nash and Stoudemire.

Marion, 29, still is one of the NBA's most athletic forwards who has thrived in the Suns' system. The four-time All-Star is averaging 15.8 points and 9.9 rebounds this season. His scoring average is his lowest since his rookie season in 2000.

A possible snag on the Miami side of the deal is that Marion has one more season worth $17.8 million but can opt out of the contract and become a free agent this summer. He may have to agree to a new deal with the Heat for the deal to be completed.

Banks, 26, has averaged 5.2 points and 1.0 assist as a backup to Nash. After this season, he has three years left on his contract worth a total of $13.4 million.

Shaq has that fire in his belly to run for his fifth championship, but can he stay healthy from now until June?
