With the addition of LA, he will probably be the first option this season, second Kawhi. We will no longer be seeing a lot of post-up for Timmy. He will prolly be earning his points thru tip-ins and second chance points. Add to that that he will be carrying a heavy load on defense with the absence of Tiago. Would it hurt his legacy if his ppg drops to single digit this season? Lets say 8.5..
13 points 8 rebounds. 2 blocks
Yep. And only because of all the blowouts. He'll still have the vintage 27/14/5/4 nights on occasion in close games
11ppg, 8rpg, 2.4 bpg, 3.5 apg
He'll average >13ppg IMO.. He'll still be Parker's favorite P&R guy.
The more important question is what will his MPG & GP be.
25-27 MPG, 65-72 GP depending on standings
Seems right
13ppg sounds about right. I think people aren't accounting for West's impact as much as they should.
12 points, 8 rebounds, 1.8 blocks
West won't play more than 10-15 mpg aside from injury/rest games
With a pretty large standard deviation on the MPG, tbh. There'll be games we go up 20 by the end of the first (with him having played the first 8-9 minutes), he sits out the 2nd, plays the first 4-5 minutes of the 3rd and sits out the rest of the night. Then there'll be the games where he has to play 35+ because those pesky (insert team here) won't go away, Lamarcus is having an off night and we need our GOAT big man to dominate as he still can on occasion.Seems right
Get the out of here.
When's the last time we've played a 4th big more than 15 mpg? When Muhammad came, Rasho was the odd man out. When Elson came, Rasho was the odd man out once again. Back then Tim was a 32+ mpg guy, and sometimes Horry opted to be the odd man out as well or we'd play Finley/Bowen at PF against smaller teams.
Nothing you've said remotely describes the big man rotation we have now. Holy , and Duncan is 39 years old! Not a single one of those stiffs was nearly as good as West is right now, and one of his important contributions will be to eat regular season minutes. , I could distantly see them start him next to Aldridge and give Duncan the minutes you're giving West.
No, West will play 20mpg at least.
Eh I don't know, Diaw is no slouch and he'll also get minutes.
Duncan isn't coming off the bench. They've defamed him enough already. Even if he's 50 if he wishes to stay on the roster, the Spurs' FO cannot and will not say no. He might only play the first 3 minutes of the game, but he'll still be in the starting lineup if he wants to be.
Duncan's 39 this year, and pop will be even more concerned with his health and mpg conservation. I can easily see Duncan being limited to 25 minutes max, and 20 if it's a blowout. If the second unit can carry the load, why not?
NO WAY REALLY
He was at 14 PPG, last year, and that includes the December of , where the Spurs had to ride him for much longer than they had anticipated..
Add Aldridge, West being a much more capable scorer than Baynes(meaning he'll probably receive clutch time minutes in games where he's hot), an expected increase in scoring for Kawhi, Green will play more minutes, Parker will score a little less(assuming he becomes more of a facilitator) = 11 or 12 PPG or so IMO..
He will probably barely touch the ball.
15PPG last year without Aldridge and Kawhi playing like a role player offensively in the first 60 games.
He will average around 12PPG a game, maybe less. He will play less minutes.
Also, the spurs want to rest parker in the regular season. TD was the biggest beneficiary of the Parker's PnR game, that will also hurt his numbers..
Kawhi and Aldridge around 18-20PPG
Parker 13-15 PPG
TD 11-13PPG
Green 10-11PPG
Really, parker 15 points. Lol
Common man, maybe with 4 assists to go with it
It will in many fans' eyes. Not because of single digits in one season at the end of his career, but because of his overall career average. I couldn't believe it when I saw his career scoring average is only 19.5 ppg. Kareem finished with 24.6 ppg and more rebounds and blocks than Timmeh. Based on that significant scoring differential, which will only get worse this year, there's no way Tim could be called "best big man ever."
I still love 21 and wouldn't trade him for anything, but stats matter when comparing legacies. Just keepin' it real.
If he feels like he deserves a bigger role, he will get his 15PPG.
I don't want to see 15 ppg on 17 FGA and 60% from the line
I dont give a as long as he becomes one of the best interior defenders in the league at 40.
