Is he even better than Belli anymore? I don't think so. Dude needs to retire instead of desperately chasing rings.

Not true, Bill Russell is #1 on that list. Bird and Magic are also above Duncan and Kobe.

LeBron stans are obsessed. I'm starting to wonder if they even enjoy the sport; all they do is sit around thinking of ways to discredit anyone but LeBron. It's hilarious.

No other fanbase would think of this as "Duncan getting more help." They'd think of it either being good or bad for the Spurs.

Anyway, please don't join us Ray; you're not better than Manu, Green or Marco.

[stalkerforlife]

Has Allen gotten a permission slip from his daddy, though?

No permission slip, no field trip.

lol what are you talking about? LeBron haters constantly say "how much more help does LeBron need?" any time his team signs a player, as if the front office isn't supposed to try to build a good cast. Obviously, JT is saying "how much help does Duncan need?" in jest of that

[Hey Yo]

Spurs and Ray Allen are actually a good fit, but Allen is still a ring chasing douche.

Lol what is he suppose to do? Play for the Bucks?

What is wrong with staying in Miami at this point? Oh, right, they won't be competing anymore so he is bailing to be a ring chaser... again.

What's wrong with leaving Miami? You guys act like these guys aren't playing for a damn business. He has no ties to the city.

[QuebecBaller]

With Manu, Belinelli and Mr.Green, why Ray??

[Hey Yo]

He hasn't even decided yet if he's going to play or retire. Plus, we don't even know if Miami will offer him a contract.

[TheMarkMadsen]

why not just stay in miami?

a healthy/motivated wade + Bosh has potential to do some damage out east

You just said exactly why he probably won't stay in Miami

[MVBallin2K]

Exactly, you already have tremendous shooting. Probably better defense from all fo them at this point too. I guess it doesn't hurt the team any to have another great shooter but I doubt he signs. He can have a bigger role on other teams compared to here.

[AirFederer]

I like it!

The Pop and Jesus om the same team :bowdown:

[SCdac]

Not sure if Ray is needed, but if he's game I say go for it. Ginobili is still really legit but he's near retirement (same for Duncan), so it shouldn't be too much of a clash to add Ray, who's also near retirement. Spurs should do everything in their power (budget) to win a championship, just like every season.

I wouldn't mind Allen as a Manu replacement for the regular season, but if he did sign, I'd like for his minutes to be below 5 in the Playoffs.

Green and Manu are much better, and Marco is too as far as I'm concerned.

lol at Marco being better.

Ray Allen is a constant threat whenever he's on the court. You can run him all over the place and teams will mess up their rotations and defenses to stop him. Marco is just there.


The Spurs probably dont need him as much as a team like OKC or the Cavs would though.

[Nuff Said]

Would be the second time he leaves for the team that beat him on the way to a ring. That's if he's interested and signs.

[artificial]

I thought Ray openly stated he would follow Lebron wherever he went (even before it was announced Lebron signing in Cleveland)?

[rmt]

I wouldn't mind him on the Spurs. There's still no one in the league I'd rather take a 3 in the clutch than Ray Allen. Mills will be out of action for a long time recuperating his shoulder. Manu has his leg injury so it'll take him a long time to ramp up. Bellinelli does need to play more to get more integrated. So mostly Green and Belli with Manu and Ray playing limited minutes. That's some great 3 point shooting team there.

[Hey Yo]

1. Leunclutch:applause:
Interesting to see you have so many green bars considering the short time I've been here, all I've seen you do is post one word made up names for Lebron and reword people's posts, then post "fixed"

He reps himself with his alts. :facepalm
How else could such a horrible poster have so much green? I seriously think he is Droid101.

[bdreason]

Ray really likes to live by the motto, "if you can't beat'em, join'em".

[r0drig0lac]

ring chaser, no thanks

i guess you don't have alts then.

How so?

Spurs are the ones pursuing him, not the other way around.

[r0drig0lac]

this is actually true, which is strange because it is a loaded position (manu, green, marco), but logically it is a particular opnion, but pop and bufford know better than anyone

[Dragic4Life]

This is absurd.:facepalm

Duncan has no shame.

Welcome back, bro. :cheers:

This.

I just don't like players recruiting others. That part annoys me, not the fact that Allen in his last year or two wants to join a contender.

[$LakerGold]

It's like saying that it's not okay for a team to trade a player. Both parties have the same goal, & that's to win a ring.

[J Shuttlesworth]

Fair enough, but were you upset that Noah was trying to recruit Melo?

[qrich]

Please do.

I want Chris Douglas-Roberts, not Allen.

Too redundant with Crawford/Wilcox/Reddick

He did not openly state it. Windhorst claims Ray would follow Lebron. Whether it will be true or not, we will find out.

ummmmm...

2003 Champ Spurs - Rounding up
Duncan - 25/15/5/3, 53%
Tony - 15/3/4, 40%
Stephen - 13/4/3, 41%
Manu - 9/4/3, 39%
Robinson - 8/7, 54%
Malik Rose - 9/6, 42%

1994 Champ Rockets - Rounding up
Hakeem - 29/11/4/4, 52%
Maxwell - 14/4/4, 38%
Horry - 12/6/4, 43%
Thorpe - 11/9, 57%
JET - 11/4, 46%
Cassell - 9/4, 39%


Are you saying manu hasn't sucked in a lot of playoff games?

Averaged single digits in 02-03 playoffs on 39% shooting.

03-04 = 13 pts while shooting abysmal from 3 and under 45% from the field.

Had an atrocious showing in 4/6 games against SAC in 05-06 playoffs.

06-07 = single digit games against poor competition.

In 07-08, in the Lakers series, goes for 30 once and under 11 pts the other 4 games. Was only good for 2/5 games against Suns. 4/7 games against Hornets shot 40% or lower.

These were all in Duncan's prime. Dat epic help though right?

[poido123]

Fair enough, but were you upset that Noah was trying to recruit Melo?


Yeah I was, i didn't like it.

Perhaps pressure from management to do it, but yeah in todays game its almost become what you have to do to remain competitive.

[Pacquiao]

What is wrong with staying in Miami at this point? Oh, right, they won't be competing anymore so he is bailing to be a ring chaser... again.

Lebron is the certified ring chaser. Ray Allen is 38 years old. Lebron is 26 when he left Cleveland to be a ring chaser
