Bingo. It's just a classy move by the Spurs to give him a chance to play somewhere.
Yeah while being desperately short of swingman help themselves.
The spurs core players are old, so they want young fresh legs coming off the bench and being the role players, for speed.
Who are they signing after the trade deadline?
The lakers have a young core (compared to the Spurs, and sans Fisher), so veteran leadership off the bench would be a bonus.
Odom, Artest, Kobe, Gasol and Fish don't need a mentor. Farmar, Shannon and Drew have these guys to learn from.
