    Great logic. Then we could have had SIX bigs and ZERO point guards.

    I will own up - as right as I was about the Jefferson contract, I was dead wrong about blowing up the team, which I thought was a good idea last off-season.

    The FO have done an incredible job of rebuilding on-the-fly, and we now have a solid core of rapidly growing young role players to support the ageing Big 3.

    Furthermore, the trade deadline moves were superb, and we now have a deep, flexible, high-chemistry squad with a real shot at winning this year and for the next one or two years, which is well worth the shot given that Timmy can still play (he looked done last year, which was one of the reasons I wanted to blow it up).

    Anyway, I was dead wrong, as were those who underestimated the brilliance of our Front Office in their ability to scrounge together a winning team.

    The Spurs were in a world of hurt after getting bounced in round 1 last year. Tim looked finished and Manu was hurt again.

    In Tony's last playoff series, he was outplayed by a serviceable pg in Mike friggin Conley. That's still fresh in my memory.
    This.

    Tony and Timmy are both playing much better than in previous years. That's a large part of the reason that the Spurs are doing so well right now.

    I still say they are missing one thing.

    What has Timmy done better this year than in previous years? I think you'll find that actual data disagrees with you.

    Yes... I'd like to see this data... because just from observation, Duncan has had more of an impact this season than last.

    I would do Parker for Rose.

    With that said, I actually don't watch Rose that much but its not hard to see that he has size, skill, speed, athleticism, and all that good stuff. He would probably bring a difference brand of exposure to SA that would surely make the ownership happy.

    Beyond Rose, I'm not sure I would trade Parker straight up for anyone else. Maybe Deron Williams.

    Parker will beat any guard in a game 7 series, yes, including Rose.

    His .465 fg% is the lowest of his career. His ppg have increased but so has his shots per game. Probably the most telling is his win shares 3.9 and ws/48 .149 which have floored this season, by far the worst of his career.

    But he's been looking so much better as of late. Hm. You think maybe the low field goal percentage is the result of him taking more jumpers than he has in the past?

    Though the win shares are tough to explain...

    He has looked better. Part of it is lockout related. He started the season in a funk and it took him nearly a month to break out. As for the outside jumpers, its probably a very reasonable explanation for why he's shooting a low percentage. He seemd to be settling for a lot of 10-15 footers this year.
