Duncan goes for 18/8/6.
If he plays 35 minutes, he probably finishes with a triple double.

I don't ever remember 8 in one game.
green, mills and diaw are all capable of scoring 10 as well so probably makes this team 11 deep.
dwest played really great too.
crazy to have 8 guys in double figures when Aldridge/Parker were both out... especially when you consider Mills wasn't one of them
not to mention parker and aldridge, so its actually 13 deep![]()
But Parker scored zero. Fat french POS.
Games like this have to scare other teams... The Spurs rest two starters, the replacement for one of those starters scores 0, and Kawhi only plays 23 minutes... but they still win by 25.
Mills, Green, and Bobo weren't one of the 8!![]()
Asked this in the other thread...
When was the last time a team scored over 120 and not one player had more than 20?
We also somehow accomplished this.
cellar dweller team, at home. If we did this against OKC or LAC I'd be impressed
I'm guessing sometime in 2014?
Im guessing you are wrong.
I gotta know.
2013? 2012? 2011? I'm guessing not before that because we didn't have a bench before that and didn't score so much
This is still an NBA team. They were affected by injuries yes, but its an NBA team.
You don't see the 76ers doing this.
I'd say we have a very deep team when Boban and Kyle can't get regular minutes and both guys would be playing in some other team regularly.
It is a luxury.
This was a terrific game to build chemistry and develop the younger guys.
Won as a team.

mccallum may have scored ouble digits, but he doesn't belong so down to 12.
13 of our 15 guys could be starters on other teams
in the playoffs, these guys are all legit
- Duncan
- Aldridge
- Leonard
- Green
- Parker
- Mills
- Simmons
- Manu
- West
- Bobo
- Boban
- Bonbon
- (Maybe) Anderson?
Or, Butler can replace Anderson and play spot duty as a defensive specialist.
I count 13
Any team?
Depth is vital in the regular season but not so much in the playoffs. Hence, the Clips taking us out last year. In the end, it's all about our D and our best 6-7 players against the other 6-7 players from the Dubs, Cavs, and maybe Okc.
Look at how efficient the bench players are:
West - 7-8 87%
Anderson - 6-9 - 66%
Simmons - 5-7 - 71%
Marjanovic - 5-7 - 71%
This isn't even a one time occurrence, it is happening with these 4 a lot of times.
What I noticed is that the Spurs get even better when they actually do sit some of the starters.
9 man rotation for the playoffs. Everyone else gets only garbage time/situational minutes.
only against compe ion ... but still this is exactly what separates the Spurs from all other teams ...
And those are the 9th, 12th, 10th and 11th guys on our depth chart respectively.
Still we really need to pick up the defense, it's been embarrassingly bad of late
If we go with West/Bobo in at the same time in the playoffs we'll get barbecued in the paint. I sure hope they stagger minutes to avoid turd towers or try Boban a little
