OK Spurs fans...the Free Agency season has started, and there are some big names out there like Emeka Okafor (restricted) from Charlotte, Elton Brand and Corey Maggette from the Clippers (both unrestricted), and even Allen Iverson (early term opt) from Denver.  While I feel we may have picked up a good back for Tony Parker, I think we can all agree that SA didn't have a great draft.  So now it's time to go shopping.

I would love to see SA go after Elton Brand.  This guy would be great on the opposite Tim Duncan, and after playing for the Clippers,  I'm sure he's plenty hungry being stuck in the shadow of the Lakers for so long.

What are your thoughts?

Rumor has it that the Spurs have made an offer to Corey Maggette, but it is only worth the MLE . Hopefully he accepts, but he also recieved an offer from the Celtics, so I'm not sure if we will be able to and him.

Other free agents that I think we should go after are James Posey and JR Smith.

JR Smith crossed my mind also.  Honestly, I would rather see Elton Brand come over, then pick up JR Smith, versus getting Corey Maggette.  That would take care of two weak spots on the team, versus just a SF in Maggette.  I doubt we'd be able to get both Brand and Maggette, but I could see getting Brand and Smith.

Well after Baron Davis signed with the Lakers

It really opened up things for the Spurs acquiring Corey Maggette

He is exactly the player they need almost to perfection.

The Spurs are tossing their full mid-level exception his way.

The Clippers can not afford to re-sign him now.

It basically is looking like either the Magic or the Spurs for Maggette.

Since Brent Barry has the same agent and opted out today, that looks like Magette is seriously considering the Spurs.

It might not happen, but it is a lot closer than the Spurs thought a week ago.

I thought he signed with the Clippers? Did the DMN get it wrong?

I don't see us getting Elton Brand, but the tought of him paired with Duncan is really nice.  I would like to see us get Maggette, however.  He is the type of player that could really help us and I think we have a good chance at getting him.  Boston is too concerned with retaining James Poesy nd that will eat a significant of their MId Level Exemption.  Also, J.R. Smith could be a viable option if all else fails, but he is a head case and Popovich might consider taking a pass on him because of his ME firs
