Just watched the 2014 Finals again
Tiago and Boris really did an important role of Beautiful Game
with Tiago being the centre, LMA have less pressure in defense!
and Tiago always play well with Manu

An Aggressive Boris will be a nightmare for every team !

Please bring back these two guys in summer!

Danny, Patty, KL, Manu, Diaw, Tiago
plus new comers Pau, LMA, Lee, Simmons and Murray

New version of Beautiful game formed

Tiago was great at interior passing with TD. I have my doubts he'd find a similar synergy with LMA who often shies away from the lower block. And Diaw will be another year older and removed from that level of play. I do agree that the overall passing would be better than in the last two years. Perhaps there would be new magical avenues those two could find with others; so, I'm not totally opposed to bringing either back; but I know it can't exactly be like it was. The beautiful game (which was also aided by a faster and younger Manu too) just almost certainly cannot be as beautiful as 14.

We should bring back Devin Brown too, along with Turkoglu.
Finley got anything left?

If Tiago is healthy then you sign him immediately. His health history will keep his contract low and he would probably like to rejoin the team.

That's a great idea! Since we're on the subject, why don't we bring back David Robinson, Sean Elliott, and George Gervin while we're at it??

I think we should move on and get younger not older tbh... let's get some young talent to go along side DJM and KL.

Come on. As Horry said it's not like he could have got into Stoudemire and Diaw's heads and got them to get up of the bench. If they didn't there would never have been an issue and the only person suspended would have been Horry.

this..
it's a new era.
-----------------------------
Tiago hasn't been healthy in 3 seasons unfortunately.
Boris is still a good player when he wants to which is not often lately.. laissez faire too much?

Da fuck? Ninja, please. Spurs won 2 out of 3 games in Phoenix that series. We were the best team and proved it by winning the finals. Horry hipcheck is Suns' fans delusional belief that it cost them a chip. D'Antoni & his no defense, gimmicky offense cost that team.

But they DID come off the bench onto the court. They WERE suspended. It changed the whole momentum of the series. Sure, we might have won that series anyway, but to say that it had no impact is ludicrous. Horry may not have planned it that way, but it's the results that count.

Right...and one of them was when PHX was without Stat and Boris. Thanks for making my point.

Ill take Splitter at the min, which I think is all he will get on the open market with two injury riddle seasons. And I think we don’t keep Dedmond. In saying that, he would be replacing Lee/Anthony and not Dedmon. We still need a starter. Unless Bertans is ready to start with LMA. And have Gasol/Splitter/Anderson as our backup bigs, Anthony or Lee depending on price and availability would be serviceable big rotation. I am not happy with that. Another option is Willie Reed for a younger player. Bogut and Hibbert for cheap options (although neither could play with Gasol, yuk).


Then for PF’s, we can look at Mbah a Moute, Humphries, and Terrence Jones. These are all our cheap options. However Gibson would be a dream and could easily play with Gasol, LMA, and Bertans.

diaw actually wasn't in bad shape, looked motivated in what little i saw of the jazz in POs.

would take splitter if he could stay healthy.

passing on both at this point.
