"I know, in his first game back lets have him take the most shots (9-24 with two gimme dunks at the end) and play 32 minutes."

and keep Bertie chained to the bench. That'll teach him.

Sure Spurs have more chances, but they need to fix the PG issue, you cant win CLE in a 7 game series with Parker playing 30 minutes a game.
GSW without Durant or with an 60% Durant is not a menace, plus they are burned.
Of course not everything is Parker, LMA has been awful too.

Not to mention that Tony's body is incapable of handling 30 minutes per game in any playoff series - much less a championship series after a full playoff run through the West.

Thats when Murray comes handy, tbh.

Every team has a weak link, ours is our PG (the whole backcourt really). I think, even while he is our weak link in totality, he is still a net positive for the team in its current state. Of course if we get John Wall we get better, but that doesn't mean the team we currently have is broke.

Regarding LMA, I just think Pop wants him focused on defense, in which I think he has done a good job. Of course, LMA needs to hit that mid range jumper with more consistently. If he does that, we become a monster that WILL go all the way and win the LOB.
