okay
Get over it.
no way parker and Jefferson avg 36 min. Pop would not allow it
I hope hill averages closer to 20 min and Parker averages a little less just in case, since hes playing this summer.
I would imagine the goal would be to have Tony, RJ, and Timmy somewhere in the 30-32 minute range, Manu somewhere between 25-28. Finley will get some time (hopefully not more than 10 minutes), and I'll be surprised if Mahinmi doesn't get some time (unless of course he's hurt like we should be expecting him to be). ***** will probably be less than 30 as well (probably between 22-27).
yeah we don't want to wear him out all season long, especially towards play-off time
I also think Gist will get some playing time(if he plays well this summer) when Pop rests some guys like Duncan or whoever on roadtrips.
Too many minutes for Manu. And based on this roster on this day you have to figure Finley gets rotation minutes as well. A 9 man rotation is pretty thin for regular-season Pop. Take 8 from Manu and 8 from Mason and give them to Finley.
The OP forgot to take smallball into account, I guess we'll play some with RJ at the 4.
So not 96min for post players.

missing bowen
Okay, I'll be the one to say it. There's only 2 names under PG. Pop likes to carry 3. Vaughn is coming back. Not saying he's going to play, but Pop will have him on the roster.
I think mcclinton if he plays well, will technically be the 3rd pg even though he plays the sg.
Nah, Vaughn's time is done. In 2005, they went with only two points guards on the roster ... that was with a worse version of TP and a rookie Beno. TP and Hill will probably be enough as long as Hill looks decent in summer league.
If not, the Spurs will sign a third string point guard. But I highly doubt it'll be Vaughn.
That probably pretty close. I wouldn't be surprised to see Jefferson lead the team in minutes at around 33 or 34. Ginobili might be close to 27. That unknown bigman depends on the player but I would pencil whoever it is around 28 and give those four extra minutes to the wings due to small ball.

Something like that. It'd be nice to lower Finley even more and give more minutes to Hill at SG but 12 is probably the minimum amount of minutes Finley will play.
It'd also be a good sign if Mahinmi or Gist could pass Bonner on the list and turn Bonner into more of a specialist.
I think the Spurs are ok with the possibility of having two point guards who don't really play the point all that well as long as they can score and defend. They have been trying to stock up on bigger guards with some PG skills (Manu, Mason, Nando, maybe even Williams) to offset any lack of playmaking from the smaller guards.
In 2005 we had Barry though. I think Pop trusted him at backup PG more than he trusts whatever combination of Hill/Mason/Manu/McClinton/Williams we'd have this year. Sure, we're all hoping Hill steps up and solidifies the role, but what if he doesn't? I'm not saying I think Vaughn is the best way to use a roster spot, but given Vaughn's familiarity with the team, and Pop's respect for him I think there's a really good chance Vaughn is on the team at least during the first part of the season. If Hill or whomever steps up and proves they can handle the role, then Pop might be okay cutting Vaughn loose. JMO of course.........
Looks good to me. And pretty fair all around.
Anything to keep the minutes down for Duncan, Ginobli, and Parker.
I believe you have to cut Duncan's minutes; definitely no back-to-backs, and sits the 4th in any blowouts.
Predicting a team rotation that soon in the offseason quite makes no sense.
Let's first see what other moves Spurs will do and what prospects will do during the SL.
I wish McClinton pans out and makes Mason expendable...
yeah, needs to be at least 20
come playoff time:

need a Defensive C for the other 12 post minutes, or not, I'm a big believer in Bonner, Blair, Mahimni, and Gist, they can all have 3 more minutes
