Jeez, I haven't seen him play too much this year? Does he have anything left? He used to be good. I, honestly, can't tell what sounds like a good idea right now.
I could see him going back to Philly if Iverson retires.
I'd take Hughes.

I haven't seen him play per say, but did follow him a little bit earlier this year for my fantasy basketball team. He wasn't half bad when he got playing time for the Knicks. Very good distributor, nice steals, and decent shooting. He would definitely be an upgrade over Bogans.
However, I don't see the Spurs signing anyone w/them saving cap funds by dumping Theo. WHo knows though what the Spurs will do this year besides continue to lose.
If only Michael Finley would just leave.
On the other hand, maybe they wanted to free up a roster spot.
Sign Hughes, waive Bogans.
They freed one up when they bought out Haislip. Any reason to free another one, now that the trade deadline is past? None that I can think of.
Hard to argue with that . . .
I would do that in no time, he was actually putting up good numbers at the beginning of the season against good teams when he was starting

he also can get a good number of assists and rebounds. Plus he always gets a couple of steals a game
of course he is listed as having a sprained left big toe, but he brings more offense then Bogans and probably a better perimeter defender
Looks like Ilgauskas is going back to Cavs. League will not block move according to CBSSports.
over the rest of the week and weekend we will see what players are available since for a player to be eligible for the playoffs as long as he wasn't on another team's roster on March 1st or later.
I'm not too fond of Hughes. He has to take A LOT of shots in order to be effective, and that won't flow well under this Spurs offense. He's also an overrated defender, and relies more on the passing lanes than man-to-man D.

Harpring retired.
Damn, I heard mixed rumors, but I guess it was official. Nevermind...
Spurs fans know absolutely nothing about basketball. Ian and Hairston as our saviors? Hilarious.
at least with Hughes you get more offense on the court over Bogans, so it would be 4/5 instead of 3/5.
lineups of Parker, Hughes, Jefferson, Timmy, Dice look better then anything with Bogans in it. When Bogans defense isn't up to par he is also a liability on offense.
Hughes is not bad on the D end either
yeah he gets a good amount of steals each game and he also has a couple of double digit assists nights each season and rebounds as well
funny the realgm.com link mentions that the Bobcats are interested in him, I hate these teams that already have an abundance of athletic guards/forwards, try to become richer.
Please Larry Brown let us have a player for once (Tyrus Thomas)
the only question I have from a CBA stand point, Larry Hughes contract for this year is something like 13.6 million. So since he is waived, the Spurs would only have to sign him to the minimum correct?
http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news?slu...v=ap&type=lgnsThe Knicks revealed last week that Hughes has a fractured left ring finger and could miss four weeks.
didn't know that, luckily it isn't on his shooting hand. Again I'll reserve my opinion who I think the Spurs should go after from waivers till March 1 but Hughes is up there on the list
http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/players/...9Bg_kjkR52PKB4Feb 22 F Etan Thomas wasn't moved at the trade deadline and won't be moving into the rotation anytime soon. Brought in to provide depth and toughness to the frontline, the veteran has been supplanted by rookie Serge Ibaka. Thomas, a native of Tulsa, has declined interview requests in recent weeks. Scott Brooks doesn't envision a change in Thomas' role. "He's done a great job of staying in shape," coach Scott Brooks said. "But we're playing good basketball and the guys who are playing are playing well."
Thomas is a player I would be very happy if the Spurs picked him up off waivers, doesn't sound like he is too happy there in OKC.
In fact when he was a rotation player real early in the season he had a good line against the Lakers
34 min, 4-7 FG 9 pts, 11 boards, 3 blocks
going to watch this game to see how his movement is on the court
Former Spur Julius Nwosu.
Bell Won't Ask Warriors For Buyout
Marc Stein of ESPN.com is reporting that Raja Bell will not seek a buyout from the Warriors.
Bell had wrist surgery in early December, but is on course to make his comeback next month.
He told Stein that he is not pursuing a buyout, which would have to be completed before March 1 for him to be eligible for the playoffs with a new team.
"I'm fully prepared to play here," Bell said last Friday.
