    was this posted? sorry if it was.

    Update:
    Gooden (groin) stayed late after practice Saturday to walk through the Spurs' offensive sets, the San Antonio Express-News reports.

    Recommendation:
    Spurs coach Gregg Popovich plans to give Gooden some time to adapt before putting him on the floor. "We've got a lot of stuff and run a lot of different things, so it's going to take a lot of time for him to kind of catch up," forward Tim Duncan said. "We'll put in a smaller package for him, some basic stuff, just so he knows what's going on."

    He needs to learn 300 offensive playbooks, then 550 defensive zones, and practice 1,000 defensive rotations drills.

    Does this have to do with his groin or is this completely unrelated?

    Exactly. There is no way he's gonna learn all the plays on offense or defense before season's end or next season's end. He needs to just get in there and play.

    err, Gooden is a 7-year veteran! Can't Duncan just teach him how to rotate on defense? He should already know how to do this by now anyway.

    All he needs to do is get offensive rebounds / catch the ball and dunk.

    The Spurs defensive rotations are a bit different than other teams' though. From what I've heard, the rotations come from different spots which tends to fool incoming players for a bit.

    CIA Pop is going to wait until after LA in my opinion..he doesn't want the Lakers to be able to adjust to him before the playoffs.

    Despite the fact that I can't wait to see how Pops will utilize Gooden and to see how Gooden will fit with our team, I don't think Pop will play him until after the Lakers.
