No, just no. I mean unless you want to keep losing in the 1st round then go ahead but that is nowhere near a le team. Green and Splitter are crucial to the Spurs success.
I just meant to say that although the lineup would be okay offensively the defensive pressure on Leonard to cover up for all the defensive holes would be bad for him. Green and Leonard are a solid defensive back court.

Turner, that's about it.
Yes that's what i would guess too, but Pop said they were gonna make changes. My interpretation of that is: there's gonna be some key guys gone or traded.
I can see that. Year 2 though I would have Vaughan in the starting lineup. And I wonder how much emphasis was put on defense when Shved was in Minnesota and New York?
Maybe a better starting two-guard and some insurance at the 3?
Marco, Ayres and Bonner are gone, to Pop those are big changes.. Parker plays 25 minutes instead of 28 in the regular season, Tim's not playing back to backs like this past season. Anderson sniffs the court in real rotations. Pop let's Mills or Joseph actually run point occasionally for the 2nd unit.
Hopefully the spurs can re sign green. Finding a 2 guard who can have the impact danny has on both ends will be difficult.
Yep, because he is irreplaceable?
This is true but Shved would have to tack on some bulk to that frame.
That's why I really like JP Tokoto. If his work on his shot pays off he could be the next Green. IMO

Also, I've been thinking, and Erazem Lorbek could be an option if we need a big on the cheap. Last I heard, he wanted to come over. I wonder what he is up to
That will suck if he bolts and they don't get in return after that, will be a huge blow to the team. Those who doubt him will not doubt him if that happens, they will fall off significantly against certain teams without DG.
Just about. Defense is rare in todays league. Shved at the 2? Come on. That would leave us with 1 great defender in Kawhi and a good defender in tim. Lma, shved, and parker are all liabilities on defense. Not enough to get it done. Kawhi would be exhausted like he was in the Clippers series.
This season he would be. No UFA that fit that mold are going to be considerably cheaper. Maybe Wes Matthews but not by much
Bulk is a little overrated in basketball. Tayshon prince was a very good defender and wasn't very big. At 6'6"" and good athleticism I think he would be just fine.
I'd be all in for a Tokoto if we were able to keep Green. Tokoto will need at least 2 seasons to be a true asset to the team and by then Manu and Tim will be done and Parkers game will have fallen off even more. The offense could look insanely different.
Shved can't be more than a buck eighty. Very wiry with small shoulders. He can't stay healthy because of the contact and thin frame.
Instead of tokoto ( I like the Hanlan kid as a PG for the future) maybe take Qualls at 55. He just tore his ACL doing work outs but maybe let him recover and come back. He is a very good defender with great athleticism and a 7'+ wingspan on a 6'5" frame.
Curry and thompson aren't very good defenders and Barnes is soft. I wonder how the warriors did this year?
It's time for you to go to bed.
Thompson is an above average defender and Curry can usually hide on someone for defensive liability issues but he's a menace on the weak side coming over to help. They funnel a lot of their defensive schemes into Bogut and Draymond and they scramble on defense. It also doesn't hurt that they score a ton of points so the other teams are always playing catchup and forcing the issue.
