    Durant is going to come to miss having all those big guys absorbing punishment so he doesn't have to.

    But they've lost good role players and are strictly perimeter oriented. I think they'll trade Klay Thompson in a year or so, they'll have to.
    When was the last time a non-cancer "top twenty" player in his prime was traded? If this happens, then the salaries of the core will truly be crushing.

    Those teams failed all year long, they were reaching back for one more chance at glory. GSW aint that. My question is, did they address their need for big men? That and the fact that theres only one ball to go around to so many offensive players.
    Well the Mailman/Payton experiment didn't fail all season, and were in the finals minus Malone. As for GS addressing their big men. Well Pachulia and David West are you hard working big men but cannot defend the rim. Pachulia has poor hands. They will just be setting screens, but on D they cannot protect the rim. GS play a heavy switching defense anyway, and I am not sure how good Pachulia is at defending perimeter players. But we know D West struggles here. They also resign Varejao, who is way over the hill now. They did sign Mcgee on a training camp contract, but he too has terrible hands and is a poor screener. They also had two young 6'9 players, McAdoo and Looney. I am unsure what their games are. Pretty weak front court, but their job is not there to score though. Just defend, rebound, and set screens. They will struggle to keep big guys from playing volleyball and teams will have to destroy them on the boards to beat them. I wonder if Kerr will employ a strategy where everyone rebounds and not leak out on the fast break just to combat this issue.

    The script is for Durbeta and skin and bones Curry to win over a tired LBJ this season. After that, I think we'll see the cracks start to burst.

    Malone and Payton beat the Spurs in the playoffs though.

    Yes. It's a good point to bring up diminishing returns, and then the hits that their defense took without Bogut. It was costly for them to lose Bogut in the finals in fact. The big guy wasn't healthy all season, but when he is healthy he makes a huge difference for them. They doubled down on what they were already good at and became weaker on what they were weak at. They will be huge in the RS when teams don't play real defense (save a few teams that make defense their iden y and play it all season), but in the playoffs it's another matter. They will be interesting but could underachieve.

    McAdoo
    is a just an athlete period. Reminds me of Livio in size and athleticism. He's a very poor defensive rebounder though which limits him to garbage time. It's either his timing or hands, for whatever reason he doesn't rebound as he should. He's also not much of a shooter but can make a midrange shot on occasion. He does fit their switching defense, but his poor defensive rebounding is a red flag. He's a deep bench player.

    Looney
    is a young player (will be 20 I think, at most 21) who may have the better potential actually but he had 2 hip surgeries last season and really barely played. He can be considered as if he was a rookie in experience. He is a good rebounder and had range on his shot. He could be a good player for them IMO, but maybe not this season as he's that young and newbie, and that is assuming his hip issues are taken care of and he will be healthy.

    I think the Spurs downfall was due to the following:

    1. Lack of Ball Movement in the Playoffs / Too much reliance on Aldridge and Leonard
    2. Tim's Injury - which was a hit to their defense and rebounding / caused others to play out of position
    3. OKC's desire - they outplayed the Spurs & rode the momentum

    I think the Spurs will be better this year with a healthy line-up and a younger roster. Aldridge will be more comfortable in the offense and Pau will certainly be an upgrade on offense. Others will be forced to take ownership now that Tim is gone. Yikes, "Tim is gone". That just sounds messed up.
    1. Occurred mostly out of necessity because the older players aged significantly and Duncans' knee injury is tied into that.

    The Spurs will likely be about the same, which is anywhere from the 2nd-4th best teams in the league. They won't be a threat to win the championship until they find a go to creator/play maker, on the perimeter, though.

    You your saying we still don't have that player on the roster right?

    The "window" was only ever open in the first place because of severe injuries to everyone else. It closed as soon as they ran into the GOAT with a healthy supporting cast in the Finals. Now they've gotten rid of all their depth for a choke artist who's scared of the playoffs.
