Lee fits Spurs much better than West
But putting Lee vs West as 1-1 matchup is suicide

No way. West was fools gold tonight.

He showed these flashes last year and then disappeared in the playoffs. Was the main reason Spurs lost to OKC.
If Iggy and West shoot like they did, it's game over. Just like Ibaka (better shooter than both) going like 11/11.

My emotions watching West burn us....what was it like?
It was like walking in on your wife screwing some other guy, and when you interrupt them, he kicks your ass, locks you out of your own house and goes back to banging her.
Like that. Only less pleasant.

Pull out the Dead-Lee combo come playoff time. And hope Dedmon can stay out of foul trouble. Pau/Lee played very poorly defensively, but these are weaknesses we know of. Pop testing the waters, cause I know he saw how bad it was.

Like that but I'd add also that he was uglier and didn't have a job. Whoa boy I could've lived with a performance like that from McGee, but seeing West giving the Spurs the old yeller treatment in the 4th was painful.

Not really. What do you think Kawhi would do if it were David Lee guarding him and not Green or Igudola with a 2nd and third help defender?

West will have 10 massively off game for every great game he has.
He jumped ship from the spurs so Glad hes gone. Dont trust him in the playoffs at all

When West/Iggy/Livingston/Green are making baskets it's nearly impossible to beat that team.

This is where I miss Bobo as he would've backed West out of the paint and shot the ball or found an open teammate.

That's a hypothetic question. A factual statement is that David West killed the Spurs that game in his limited minutes and Kawhi hurt the team with his poor shooting and turnovers. Period.

Pop needs to sit Lee and play Bertans
Also play Simmons and not Manure
And maybe even play Murray over Porker

I agree with all 3 of these. Let Parker and Mills battle it out for the backup spot. 1 half each.

As I've been saying all year, people here quickly forgot that David West was really solid during the RS, prior to his post-season meltdown..hopefully this isn't deja-vu with David Lee, tbh..would love to see Bertans ahead of him, but Pop won't play an inexperienced player over a veteran until it's desperation time and the Spurs are on the brink of elimination..

Anybody who has the game recorded should go back and look at the last few minutes of the first quarter. What Randolph did to Lee was criminal.
I took a lot of shit when the Spurs signed Lee, for saying he is too small to play in the middle, against playoff-caliber bigs. He's a great player, and I love his energy and determination. But dammit, he's not big enough to body up against guys like Randolph - especially in the playoffs when the refs let the paint turn into WrestleMania. It's not a shortcoming in his game, it's just a shortcoming in his size.
I think it's bullshit how the refs let Z-Bo play. If he didn't like where Lee was, he just put both hands on him and shoved him someplace else. They always allow him to do a certain amount of that, because "that's just his game". But in the playoffs he's a fucking bull in a china shop. But that doesn't change the fact that Lee is just doesn't stand a chance because of the size difference.

What does Pop do moving forward is the question. The first couple of games Zbo settled for a lot of jumpshots. In the second game he made a few of those. The first game he was awful in general and off.
But now he's found his game and he's not scared of Lee obviously

I re-watched it. He swung Lee around like a rag doll.

^ that was the question what to do about that. Lee is not going to be able to put up resistance.... maybe match him up with Dedmon?
I don't know.
I am tempted to suggest Davis bc as ragdolls go at least that one shoot and Zbo cannot guard him.

What if the coaching staff change the sl a little bit,
Dedmon, Lamarcus, then Bertans, Kawhi and Mills

Gasol, Lee, Parker, Simmons and Green at guard for the second unit

That way, we have at least 3 shooters per line-up, just a simple fan's opinion..........

Oh, I knew what you meant. I just don't always trust my first impression of things, from when I watch the game live. After watching it a second time, and really looking at that matchup, it was worse than I thought. You're dead right - I don't know what Pop can do, or is going to do. But that matchup is a loser. I think maybe Bertans could get under his skin enough to do something stupid. At least get him to commit some cheap fouls. But that's always been the big problem with Randolph - under playoff rules, he's hard to handle. it isn't basketball, but if the refs allow it, he'd be a damn fool not to do it.

---------------------------------------------
Bertans could play the starting small forward, a la Bird
and then Kawhi is our MJ
why not right?

The big problem with that is that it doesn't seem like the Spurs can have three shooters making shots in the same game, much less at the same time. Pau has been drilling 3's ever since he came back from that injury. Not tonight. Danny knocked down some 3's in the first two games. Not tonight.
Tony just can't take the paint against this team. To be honest, I'd like to see Pop draw up some plays to get Tony some open looks at corner 3's. He shoots them pretty well, and it would at least force Memphis to bend their D a little bit.

Parker and Green stabilizes that second unit, better playmaking than the chaos of Old Man Manu
With the improved shooting of Simmons, he joins Pau and Danny as the shooters of the substitutes.
Why not give it a try.....

Can't trust Simmons to shoot well .... he's 30%for the season and might have blown his quota in this game but if Manu is going to be a 0 out there Pop is going to have to mix Simmons up.
I hope he gets a few minutes if Manu doesn't have it frankly.

Thanks. I was wondering how all of a sudden Zbo became prime Shaq. He was handling LaMarcus easily too, iirc.
Even if the Spurs can match up the physicality, there's no guarantee the refs won't use double standards. In any case, Spurs don't have someone like him. I hope this is just a one game thing so the series is done in 5.
OTOH, flopping could be useful now :lol
