Interesting, I personally think it will either be RJ or Tony, but then again you know Tim will be around 18-21ppg as per usual so who knows?

Tony, but I see Pop using RJ as the second option next season, with Tim and Manu in spurts and off what those two create.
Tony- 25
Manu-18
Tim-18
RJ-16
Mason-10
Tony may challenge for the scoring title in the next season or two.
Tony 18

Ginobili 16

Playoffs
Tony 25
Tim 25
Ginobili 20
Jefferson 12
if parker ever develops a consistent pull up jumper and 3 point shot, then he will be unstoppable. until then i think he has already maxed out at 22 pts a game. hopefully everyone's scoring average will drop next season and the spurs will see a more balanced offensive attack.
parker - 19
duncan - 18
ginobili - 16
jefferson - 16

TP gets the ball on his hands most of the time, so he'll lead it.
TP - 21
Duncan - 17
RJ - 18
Manu - 15
I'd go with Tony but I think his scoring will go down a little as RJ, Manu, Hill and RMJ are all fastbreak options. That said on any given night any of the big 4 can be the leading scorer depending on matchups and who's hot or cold.
For some reason I am thinking Manu. He always plays hard. Now that the injury bug is gone (hopefully) he can continue doing what he does best.
I'd guess RJ or TD I hope TP9's assist numbers go up.
wheres the option for GHILL3? fkn haters
We're as much haters as you're plain stupid :blahQuote:

as far as ppg goes i think:
tp - 20 ppg
timmy - 18-19 ppg
manu - 14-15 ppg
rj - 13-14 ppg
dice - 8-9 ppg
mason 8-9 ppg
finley 6-7 ppg
hill 5-6 ppg
blair 5-6 ppg
mahinmi 4-5 ppg
haislip 4-5 ppg
bonner 2-3 ppg
mcclinton - toros most likely.
if Hill finishes teh season 5-6ppg than thats fkn shit, thats what he avg last season....i wanna see it creep up near 8-10ppg....i think its possible....Quote:

It'll be interesting to see how Manu comes back from his injury and how his confidence is like. It'll probably take time for him to get going again and I know that he's said that he'll be changing his game now and working and relying alot more on his jumpshot and 3 pointers. I sure don't see him driving into the lane and scoring as much as he used to. Although going into a contract year next year he'll probably go crazy scoring wise.
TP - 21
RJ - 17
TD - 17
Manu - 15
Bonner - 9
I was trying to do like previous posters and list every player's ppg. When I totaled everything up I kept getting 110+. That's just not possible, right???
My fear is RJ and McDyess get gun shy. I don't know what is with new Spurs, but they always seem to defer to the big three almost to a fault. If given the minutes, I think the surprise points-wise could be Blair, I can seem him getting 6-8 pts just on put backs alone.
parker
ginobili
jefferson
duncan
and i like you, old school, have the spurs near 110 per night (actually between 105 to 110) and also at about 45 boards per game as well.
Unless we are considerably more up tempo or shoot a higher percentage, it's going to be tough to get 110 a night. By the way, I think Parker will easily lead the team in scoring.
i think that the bigh three get 60 and then jefferson, mcdyess and mason about 35. you would have to think that hill and blair and another bench player get about another 10-15. the point is this team wil have far more fire power and ways to score than last years team was ever close to having.
Not with the horses around him - doesn't have to.Quote:

Tony: 20ppg
Tim: 18ppg
RJ: 19ppg
Manu: 14ppg
You guys are funny . . .

for sure TP, i hope he will keep playing how he did last season
Boy, I hope Blair is reading these boards and seeing all you peeps underestimate his scoring average. I say he will average 8 to 12 points and 8 to 12 boards. He will be a beast when it comes down to it.Quote:

Blair is going to contribute, but there's no way he's going to be pushing a double-double as a bench guy playing behind Duncan and McDyess.Quote:

it'll change nightly but Tony has the ball so it starts with him. At the end of the season my money is on TP, playoffs will possibly change
To any who thinks that people are underestimating Hill's or Blair's scoring or anyone's really, how much do you expect the Spurs to score? The Spurs will never score 110 ppg unless they shot about 60%. Pop doesn't like to have the game at that high of a pace. Do you all really think that the Spurs will suddenly turn into the Suns from a few years ago on offense?
The 2004-2005 Suns (one of the highest scoring teams of the past couple of decades) scored 110.4 ppg (http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/PHO/2005.html) The 2005-2006 Suns scored 108.4 and the 2006-2007 Suns scored 110.2 ppg. In compariso the Spurs scored in the same 3 years 96.2 ppg, 95.6 ppg, 98.5 ppg. The next 2 years 07-08 95.4 ppg, and 08-09 97 ppg.
Looking at the Spurs offensive production the last 5 years would indicate the Spurs would score somewhere around 96-97 a game. If you want to argue this is the best offensive Spurs team of the six (debatable since we don't know what Manu can bring) than you should be looking at probably 99-100 ppg with less production coming from outside the top 5 (since I don't know if Manu will start or not I will not say bench).
So realistic expectations would be to see Mason's production drop (as his importance in the offense falls), Finely drops (thank goodness it because of a reduced role), Bonner is pushed to a limited role, Hill's production to stay the same or rise slightly (He will probably never be more than the 3rd option on the court this year). Blair is a rookie who will be asked to focus on defense and rebounding and scoring production will be limited. Jefferson will probably drop down as he will be the 4th option in crunch time.
So here is what i think is realistic.
TP - 18
Tim - 17
RJ - 15
Manu - 15
McDyess -8
Mason - 7
Hill - 6
Finely - 5
Blair - 5
Rest of team - 4-6
That would give 100-102 ppg which i think is possible as the Spurs get better in fastbreak and more efficient in the half court. I also would not be suprised to see Manu and RJ score less as Manu comes back from injury and RJ focuses on defense. This might allow Mason-Hill-Blair to score some more or it will put the Spurs back around where they where the last 5 years and would indicate scoring has more to do with pace than talent.
All this said i think the Spurs will be vastly improved on last year and think we will end up within 2 games of 60 wins.
Oh I think we will win this too :lobt2:
I think Tim's scoring will be down only because he doesn't need to score as much next year.
TP-22
RJ-17
Tim-17
Manu-15
I think 70 points between the big 4 is much more likely then 80, then...
Mason 10
Dice 8
Hill 6
Blair 7
Haislip 4
Bonner -5
None of players will shine in scoring outside of Parker, but the team will. This team is reminding me more and more of the mid decade detroit pistons, where the entire starting lineup and team were packed with all-star caliber players, and they were all willing to split the work and glory for the benefit of the team.
Except without all the 'Sheed techs
That is 114 ppg all together. That is if we are consistent with that.Quote:

Voted for TP, but I think him and TD will be going back and forth between 1 and 2 throughout the season.

By the way I'm a newbie here so Hi to everyone :)
Spurstalk is in my life for 2 or 3 years now, it's time now to participate !
Congrats to this forum :toast
Tony, Toni, Tone, has done it again!
Tony will carry the scoring load in 09/10.
Yep. With RJ running the floor on fast-breaks, I think TP's scoring will go down a bit, but hopefully his assists will go up.Quote:
