Start Anderson and move LMA to the 5.
Bertans as the backup PF tbh
I think this will be great, I think Bertans is severely underrated... trade Aldridge for a wing similar in skill set to kawhi (or to make space for Paul George)...
Bertans is actually decent on defense for a rookie, and he will definitely space the floor on offense and open the lane up for kawhi and Murray...He can also put the ball on the floor
Start Anderson and move LMA to the 5.

what the .
lma refuses to play at the 5
bull , expired talking point.
15-16 - aldridge played center 46% of the time during the season and 44% of the time in the playoffs
16-17 - aldridge played center 31% of the time during the regular season and 50% of the time in the playoffs

And he ing sulked the entire way, that clown.
yeah, not saying he filled it admirably... but the "he's not willing to" talk is just wrong
Meaning someone that can shoot, drive, play defense...Paul George is similar in skill set...Skill set is different from ability
And he pouted all along. And what did Pop say last night after game 4?
He said "big men in the league don't want to play on the block anymore, they want to shoot jumpers." And it wasn't a compliment.
LOL. Ok. I'm not sure I buy that though. I mean...by your definition, I've got a similar skill set to Leonard. I don't do any of them nearly as well. But I have that skill set.
In fact, I have an expanded skill set. Sometimes, I've played the 5.
maybe in 2k (but I would like to see)
might as well get the kid a pair of skates...
1) Bertans will never be a full-time starter with the Spurs.
2) Bertans will never be an All-Star.
Thank you.
Gasol
Aldridge
Bertans
Green

Works for me.
I really don't understand LMA's unwillingness to play the 5 in today's NBA. His main complaint, as I recall, was that it's too physical. But nowadays there's really no post playing brutes. Boogie's an exception.
Boogie's a savage.
Start him or Anderson at the 4.
It's time to make the move that they should have made a year ago, going more versatile with 3 wings (2 w/size + good rebounding) and 1 C, instead of signing Gasol. Harkless would have been a nice fit tbh..
But, Pop's zag vs zig brought the Spurs to the WCF and, minus the Zaza incident, they were in a very good position.
Why abandon it? What more can you realistically do? How can you best this yr's performance?
so a player should only be a starter if they are an all star? lol....interesting logic
i dont want green starting...at ALL...dude cant dribble or pass...when he gets run off the line, it turns disastrous FAST...plus his defense has fallen off considerably...he needs to be replaced...either he comes off the bench, or plays elsewhere
Anderson??? NO!!! he does NOTHING better than Bertans...he is undersized, slow, turns the ball over just from dribbling, cant shoot, isn't aggressive...he needs to be nowhere NEAR this team next year
get better players
Why not just get LeBron instead of PG? Or at the very least get Durbeta.
LMA still holds value as a 5, he is an above average rim protector, can defend the post and switch out on to the perimeter, albeit with varied results. I would hope that he takes a step forward and start taking more 3's next season to further stretch the floor.
I always thought that the "I don't want to play the 5" was more to do with him not wanting to bang in the post. I still think Pop could talk him into starting at the 5 and closing at the 5.
