Will LMA score in double digits vs. GSW?

[ParadoxEN]

Here's to hoping he doesn't go for 6 again.

He'll feast, especially on the O glass.

Bogut might be hurt. If so, that changes everything. We might see a lot of small ball.

LMA plays well against undersized defenders i.e. Draymond

Tony manu and tim too. Length gives manu tim and tony problems.

In other news, water is wet, and the sun is bright.

The Warriors adapted to small ball because Bogut is almost constantly hurt. He's honestly worse than Splitter.

[MultiTroll]

Do we get a door prize?

Manu doesn't have much of an issue w/ length, he actually toys w/ tall defenders. In any case, length is an asset on defense.

I'm just saying tony most of the time played vs gasol and bynum or any tall defender in general. Undersized big men get taken to school by tony.

I know he's injury prone. I'm just pointing it out for this upcoming match-up specifically. If he does play he can guard LMA.

If he does play then Pop is going to hack him along w/ Ezeli.

If he plays, we can play Duncan (on Bogut) AND LMA and match LMA up on Raymond.

I talking about the warriors on D. They may prioritize stopping LMA over Duncan if he's killing them even if it draws Bogut away from the rim. He's one of the better post defenders and if Dray can't check LMA (or if they just want to mix up the coverage) Bogut can give LMA problems one-on-one.

[Spurtacular]

How many all-star level players does GSW hold to single digits, tbh?

[BG_Spurs_Fan]

Here's to hoping he doesn't go for 6 again.

He went for 6 against GSW? When was that?

[will_spurs]

He's supposed to abuse Green on O so he'd better score in the double digits.

As long as he contributes to a Spurs win, I am not concerned with his stat line.

Bogut slows their offense, so they can go for it. In addition, he only plays 20 minutes per game, and is still breaking down.

[Obstructed_View]

Actually, I hope Pop is smart enough to sub out to match their small lineups, and to do it as a decoy. I don't want the Warriors realizing how badly Duncan and Aldridge will tear them up in the playoffs.

Well then Duncan will score over green. Or the lane will be open.

Pop is an amazing coach but his insatiable desire to go full Don Nelson should be strongly curbed

I just don't want to leave this season with the impression that Pop intentionally tipped his hand to the Warriors so he'd have an excuse to abandon the Duncan-Aldridge front line when it mattered most.

Cleveland, IMO

Hard to tell exactly what Pop will do, but he definitely is going to keep his cards very close to his chest.

I said just that in the "Spurs from a Dubs forum perspective" thread and few people agreed.
