I still think the lineup math works better with Manu off the bench. Pop has three major objectives with the minutes distribution:

1. Keep Manu around 30 minutes or less.
2. Keep 2 of the Big 3 on the court as much as possible.
3. Have the big 3 on the floor for the last 5 minutes of the game.

It hard to accomplish all three of those if Manu starts. The only chance is if Delfino (or somebody else) can provide enough scoring so he doesn't have to enforce #2.

J.R. Smith had a grand total of ZERO starts last year for the Nuggets.

Also, they run Kleiza at the 2 a lot as well.

And Kleiza got his ass beat which is why he moved to the bench.....You could start anyone at any spot doesnt make them that pos......Klieza is a sf nothing more nothing less......they also played martin at the sg if that tells you how bad off they are .......and you saw what Kobe did to his ass.

Mason from washington is Ok but not athletic.....I say look to trade for a wing...maybe try to sign Krstic form Jersey...

Stick to agent school, dumbass.

Nyuck nyuck nyuck.

You would have been better off just saying you've never seen Azubuike play than spend the time to post that crap you posted.

Before Stephen Jackson returned from suspension Kelenna was putting up 20 a night. Kinda hard to average more than 8 PPG when you're coming off the bench and filling what's left of the minutes that Stephen Jackson and Monta Ellis don't...

I wish you'd just go back to spursreport, your stupidity fits right in there.

Re: JR Smith: The Remainder of the Tim Duncan Era Hangs in Limbo

thank God spursfans will stop dreaming with Baggette now.

I am also not convinced with JR. He won't make or break the Spurs. As long as we sign someone like Pietrus/Azubuke and healthy we should still be contenders.

I am not worried.

I have watched the guy play since he was at kentucky not sayn hes a bad player but his numbers are inflated from playn in a systme that allows him to put up numbers. In the spurs slow down tempo, if you project him into the lineup he gets 8-9 ppg in 27 min about what Fin gave us. I think for that fact Ricky Davis would be better.

Re: JR Smith: The Remainder of the Tim Duncan Era Hangs in Limbo

He averaged 8.5 PPG in 20 MPG last year. Finley averaged 10 in 27. :lol

He'd be a double figures scorer for the Spurs. And again, this is about finding someone to shoot the ball a lot during the regular season to keep the load off Manu and the scoring load off the big 3.

If you don't think he'd get significantly more touches as our starting 2guard than he got coming off the bench playing with Baron Davis, Stephen Jackson, Monta Ellis, Barnes, and Pietrus (bunch of chuckers), you shouldn't be posting on this board.

Ricky Davis. Just shoot me. A guy who has been traded multiple times and managed to make every team he's been traded to worse. When you look up bad game judgement there's a picture of Davis.

Nonsense, spursman20 got him in the NBA Agent Fantasy Hoops League about four years ago and the guy was money.

Re: JR Smith: The Remainder of the Tim Duncan Era Hangs in Limbo

I think Denver doesn't match simply because I think they'd go after someone cheaper like Azubuike. Spurs need to make a full MLE offer for five years and then sell him on starting, etc.

Iverson is their SG.

Carter is their starting Point. JR comes off the bench.

One discouraging thing about signing Smith is that Denver dumped their pick to save money. Hard to believe they'd dump the pick and be willing to lose Smith.

Do you just make stuff up as you go along? How many times have you been exposed in telling lies - only to move on as if you never made the statements in the first place?

Why is that so hard to believe? They're already at $78M with 5 more players needed to fill out their minimum 13 man roster. If you make it short, and the full MLE, I think they'll pass, rather than gut the team for a player who could walk unrestricted in 2 years.

If they let him walk, his $3M qual offer comes off, knocking them down to $75M, only $4M over the tax. They the go out and fill the roster with (now) 6 more cheap players, and maybe they get away under $80M, and the tax doesn't bite them too hard. If they match, they're at $80M before filling out the roster.

OTOH, if they were willing to dump their pick to save around $1M why would they match an offer of $6M/yr on a guy they have coming off of the bench?

I hope so. That's who I want the Spurs to make a play for. I even prefer him to having gotten Maggette if Pop can get to him.
