    And Leonard was the 3rd best SF per these metrics, and Danny Green was the 4th best SG.

    Only caveat is the fatboy, injuries and finding a backup big, but it's looking real good right now.

    I just hopes he brought the DTs with him from Portland.

    And remember one thing, Midst.

    What's that, Dale?

    A good supply of body bags.

    Like you said, he'll function here. Doesn't have to carry as big of load and the spotlight will be shared 4 ways, so he won't be under much of a microscope. LMA's midrange game will do wonders for Leonard's driving and Parker's, if the fatboy can lose the weight.

    Has Duncan officially ceded the team to LMA yet? I know he ceded it to Parker several years ago, but, that didn't work out so he took it back, but, ESPN was reporting today that they've already told him it's his (LMA) team.

    Can you confirm that, Midst?

    It'd be swell finding out the game plan for LMA's rebirth. Pop has it all in his head and now will put it down on paper, then execute it. Complete makeover, mental, physical, spiritual. Full production, no cost cutting, no cutting corners. He's young enough to fully invest. Enough prime + enough HIDDEN PRIME to be tapped to make the cost investment an easy decision.

    This is the bridge from Duncan to whatever is over the valley.

    I wish we had this, not LMA for instance, but, the opportunity that you guys have. A boundless view of the future. We only have the past.

    You're very fortunate, Midst.

    And you got some skin out of it in LMA scoring the Suns. You should check out their meltdowns over on their boards

    Yep, I can't wait for 6AM Monday morning. I'll be listening to the radio. It will be interesting on how they take it.

    Teams signing players to max contracts this year are very fortunate-- in two seasons the salary cap is due to explode... In 2017, the Spurs will have the trio of Aldridge, Kawhi, and Green locked up and be able to offer another max or near max contract to another young star. However this all turns out in terms of championships, there is really no question that the Spurs have put themselves in an optimum position.

    Exactly right. This gives SA a legit shot at the le in 2016 and well beyond.

    Many of us for years have been dreading life AD (After Duncan) This helps bridge the gap between the past, present and future. Life AD just got a lot brighter. LMA, Leonard, Green, insert a new C and a new PG and the team wont miss a beat in the transition from Duncan, Manu, Parker. Just as the transition from being the Admirals team to being Duncans was effortless.

    They are in optimum position to contend this year and even after Tim finally hangs them up which I didn't know would be possible so soon. A truly great franchise that has only missed the payoffs once in the last apx 25 years? The year David Robinson was injured so we could tank for Duncan, thanks Mr Robinson! For the first time in years life After Duncan doesn't seem so freakin scary... Though I still hate the thought of it!

    That should be tattooed to the forehead of everyone of your brethren here. Life would then be amenable between our two camps. But no. Your camp refuses to accept reality. Good on you for putting it to paper, Dale.

    The spacing and plethora of open shots for this offense will be embarrassing. It'll be like MJ switching to the tougher shot just to make it interesting.
