LJC is a 3? I thought people were saying his best chance was at 4?

---

Yeah, Milutinov or LaLanne would add some nice youth to our bigs.

I think we'll see a lot less of Leonard being a spot-up shooter like he often was with Duncan/Splitter clogging the lane(his offense usually improved significantly with Diaw on the floor)..

---

Well, sure, but we're going to see a lot of new sets for the middle part of the floor.

:lol Imagine if Lebron announced he's signing for the minimum here, the entire NBA may meltdown further.

If we want the Timmy that showed up against the Clippers (18pts/11reb) in the PO next year, there is no way you are going to run him into the ground like in like the brutal December of last year, he will be 40 by next April...This is a tremendous signing in that regard..My guess TD will be around 25/26 mins this upcoming campaign..

I think he's currently best suited for small-ball four. But I don't think the Spurs look at the third-string SF spot as one that LJC can't hold this season. He has the body for it, and he's possibly the third-best perimeter defender on the roster.

Didnt realize LaMarcus was so effective from 3 tbh.

OMG! I never imagined this was really possible!

Way to go, Front Office.

whoever mentioned that it will take a while to gel was right - it will - but it will build toward the playoffs and what a way for Duncan and Manu to end their careers, huh?

What a great season this is gonna be!!

Wow just wow!!

Certainly possible, but I don't think he has a defined role on the team anymore. Too many guys who can shoot and who are already on the roster.

And what about Bonner? His days are over?

---

At best LaLanne is in street clothes behind the bench. Bonner will be added once they figure everything else out.

Spurs still need a vet guard to help limit Manu's minutes.

He really put his money where his mouth is. He's giving up at least $5 million after taxes.

Midrange which now teams forgot gonna be in use.


But to spread the floor we need more 3 points threts

A dude that's huuungry for a ring! And he won't be afraid to show it in the playoffs.

---

Yeah, I'd prefer Withey (if you haven't heard me talking about him enough recently), as they could sign him to a one-year deal and still have RFA rights on him.
