Was Aldridge worth it, tbh?

[ChumpDumper]

Because there ain't much better realistic ways to stop the warriors pick and roll. this hypothetical spurs roster has the physical defensive tools to defend on switches and live with the situations when it's just unable to stop the greatness that is the warriors offense.

The defensive core gets to look at Curry, Thompson, Green, and Barnes as a defensive feast instead of an offensive juggernaut.

Sorry, you still haven't explained how Crowder plays better against the Warriors in your scenario than he actually has in real life.

[DrunkTXLabrat]

Yeah? So the Spurs had far and away the best defense in the league last year too, right? I mean, they had Green and Kawhi then as well.

they should have been fine enough to beat the Clipps, that's for sure. My reasoning for the clipps bed wetting is the spurs didn't plan on Banger coming up short with Splitter hurt. Maybe they should have had a better deep alternative than bonner?

Because he ing fits the optimal game plan.

because there's no Kawhi in Boston.

Why are you dodging my question?

What was the Spurs DRTG and defensive rank last year, with Kawhi and Green playing?

I'm not dodging your question. I don't know. And I dont think it matters. I'm not a robot. That's the whole thing behind calling chump siri. You dudes are mindless machines. You have no soul.

So it doesn't matter what our defense was like last year with green and leonard, despite them being solely responsible for our defensive rating this year.

Got it. You would be a lot better off just admitting you're wrong.

statistics are like lie detector tests. you're like a cop, judge, or politician. when i say Green and Leonard are the best, i know there will be exceptions. you wanna trash me for not acknowledging an exception properly is pc bull . check yourself for dodging, you slimy snake.

So, putting stats aside for a minute, are you of the opinion that the Spurs defense was as good last year as it is this year?

If you're not basing your argument on stats, what are you basing it on?

Do continue to call me a snake for using concrete data to support my points though, by all means.

i'll call you a snake because it seems like youre so enamored with the conclusions of your "concrete data" that you lose sight of having a conversation. you just throw out something confusing with an insult and look so happy to do so. it's more like youre over there typerbating.

i'm of the opinion that the spurs defense was better last year.

i'm basing it on the players of the roster and what i think they're capable of.

I always thought the optimal spurs rotation was to start Diaw at the 4 alongside Timmy. with Splitter/Banger as the bench 5 and Anderson/JaMichael/Bonner as the 4. Dumping JaMichael and ing around with Andreson is what cost the Spurs the playoffs, in my opinion. Chump hates my reggie williams take, and my Glen Rice Jr. take... and he's so much like you, he hasn't even really figured out that it's mostly just a wtf happened to JaMichael Green take.

The Spurs defense is worse this year, because they've compounded the problem they made last year. Now Splitter is gone, and Diaw is still not the starting 4. Anderson is still not the backup 4. West and Boban are nice additions and uprgade the Splitter/Banger alternate 5. Simmons is a nice addition at wing. but lame is an albatross. and doom is the destiny.

Splitter done for the year.

Thank god you aren't in the Front Office.

That would be a blessing in disguise, if the Spurs had faith in youth. Tavares in 3...2...1...

That dude isn't very good at this point. He's been playing for the Spurs farm team in Austin. I'm sure you didn't know. Nonsensical rant in 3...2...1....

True, I believe one has to watch a basketball player actually play basketball before evaluating that basketball player. You believe the only stat to pay attention to is date of birth.

i like wingspan and hand measurements, along with draft scouting videos too. and of course, gut feeling.
