    I was going to make a thread about that, tbh..

    Next year's regular season should feature more experimentation from Pop from an offensive standpoint, tbh..obviously Leonard, but I'd like to see Green have a chance at running some offense, and Splitter needs touches in the post, too..

    These guys need to be prepared for the playoffs, the Spurs shouldn't be relying on Parker and Duncan having a 28% usage rate, and Manu having anything more than 20% IMO..
    I think the way Pop used Green to attack Curry on offense could be a staple in his game plans against cross-matches on Parker. Danny had a good amount of success against in him Games 4 and 5, and he would have been even better had he had more practice with it. People also forget that Green was the backup point-guard for a good chunk of 2011-2012, due to Joseph being in Austin, Ginobili being hurt and Neal being terrible. He can be better than he was in the playoffs, but he has to make becoming more consistent a priority.

    Obviously you're right about Leonard and Splitter. Tiago in particular was a lot better in the regular season than a lot of posters remember. He was among the leaders in FG% for much of the year because he was a great finisher. What he really lacks in confidence. The Medium Three need to continue to expand their roles over the next two years. That will help offset the Big Three's decline.

    I agree those guys need more usage. The good thing is they are all good passers. Our offense is too predictable come playoff time and our big 3 are no longer good enough to always beat single coverage. Also the biggest detriment to Tiago's confidence is Pop.

    Make that fat bas a center for the Toros. That'll sweeten the minimum offer to Ron.

    Thanks. I've been trying for 3 days...

    Anyway MWP is being waived via amnesty clause. Benefactor has 1/2 of the prediction right. Could he be right on the second and more difficult part?

    I can't wait until the Spurs sign him. They aren't picky at all and love going after guys with at ude problems.

    RC, make it happen!
    (TBH, I don't think he will pass up on the HOU chance)

    If he's cool with not playing very much than I'd be good with this.

    i don't want him...but if he came i want him playing no more than 10 minutes per game. the only reason i'd take him is to rub it in laker fan faces since they all love him.

    but to reiterate, we can do better

    Houston is over the cap, as well as OKC. MWP could only go to those teams if no teams under the cap want him.

    Although, aren't the Spurs over the cap as well?

    There is a good chance he clears waivers and goes where he wants for the minimum.

    I don't think the Spurs do it just based on locker room alone. R.C. and co are very particular about who they let on this team. I'd be really surprised if they let Artest in Spurs uni.

    Well, Spurs fans would get all access passes to the MWP show. He will probably show up at some fans houses and BBQ then take everyone on ST bowling.

    They have attempted to trade for and attempted to sign players with do ented behavior problems. It's not that far fetched. The only thing that could keep them from it is we are fresh off of the Jackson debacle.
