I think phoenix is a good fit for him too, because at this stage he is pretty much a 4th option type player - and he's got the best or second-best distributor to get him open shots or, more importantly, find him when he cuts to the basket. double teams for amare and marion will get him a lot of open looks. Nash, Spree, Marion, Amare, Kurt with raja bell, jim jackson, brian grant off the bench could win it all because they have defensive stoppers and more depth. Less outside threats but Nash is a pretty good shooter as are bell and jackson. If they get payton with the trade exception then they are in real good shape, even though I think Barbosa will be fine coming off the bench.
Houston would be a good fit, as would Denver because Denver hasn't had a good 2 in a while. Cleveland has larry hughes so he'd probably be coming off the bench as a 7th or 8th man. Dallas with Christie probably won't offer anything to Spree, and I can't see Spree playing in Utah. I can see him on Detroit or the Spurs though, as a backup to Ginobili/Bowen - he's a better defender than barry and a better penetrator, much worse shooter and passer though
