sounds reasonable... with jimmer helping grab those wins that seem just out of reach

Parker, Duncan and Ginobili playing an average of 75 games?

Duncan probably, 70-76 games, mostly missing due to rest on b2bs. Reliable to pencil in the lineup imo.

Parker maybe, 66-77, depends how he holds up. Hasn't played 75+ in awhile.

Ginobili? Let's be realistic. . .45-67 games. Has not played more than 70 games in half a decade and that's even with playing sub 24 MPG every year since then.

He won't be able to grab those wins, that seem out of reach, if he's sitting behind the bench.

Realistically though, probably we shall see at least 15 games where Tony, Manu and Tim will be out.

Starting Five:

McCallum - G
Green - SG
Leonard - SF
Aldridge - PF
West - C

2nd team:

Mills
Simmons
Anderson
Diaw
Marjanovic

Specialists:

Bonner
Fredette

Still a pretty decent team on paper.

I've seen people putting david west as center everywhere else i see. is this not to upset LMA and his hatred of the letter C??? hasn't LMA already said he'll share duties with duncan? can west even play center?? isn't it obvious that when duncan doesn't play at all, LMA WILL be starting as center with West in PF?

FYI, Manu has played more games than Leonard in the past three years, more than Parker in the last two. And 5 years ago he played the 3rd most minutes on the team.

With us not replacing what we lost dfensively in Tiago, this almost has to be the plan. I think LA has alluded to it some, and I think some are taking the "I don't want to play Center." rumor/comment a little too literally.

maybe aldridge gets some rest as well.

i doubt there's a game where pop plays neither Duncan or LMA. Obviously, LMA can use all the time in the system he can get (hey can we send him to the d-league for a year just to make sure?)... and given Duncan's a few days older than Lamarcus, you figure LMA MIGHT miss three or four, while duncan will miss 10-15. but i want lamarcus learning where's he supposed to be in the offensive sets and defensive schemes for as long as he can bare playing until the peak fluidity is reached.
