    How many opportunities are you going to have to exploit that matchup? And thanks for answering my question with a question.

    They only need to acclimate George and it's not exactly rocket science to do that...
    Yet still. When Westbrook goes to the bench, they get torched. Just play Kawhi when George comes off the bench and they will struggle to score.

    Think you are over valuing continuity -- especially when your second best player is already thinking about playing somewhere else.
    He's always thinking about elsewhere. Contract year and when has he tanked a season when he wanted to leave

    Who will torch them other than Kawhi?

    Donovan already knows he has to sit Kanter when he's getting torched on the pick and roll. You do it enough as long as it doesn't interfere with the flow of the offense. You start early for easy buckets. He'll give the midrange J. Hit it and he's out.

    That sure worked in 2016.

    And again, I'm assuming the same team basically comes back, but the Spurs don't have a problem with their bench. Pop develops it all season, while OKC will play their stars big minutes to get wins. It could be anyone really. Patty, Simmons, Anderson, Bertans, Gasol, Aldridge. Just a deeper team.

    Lee and Dedmon are gone, most of the quality free agents are signed. Who are we getting to replace the backup forward and center spots? Is Hanga coming to join Spurs this coming season?

    I don't even count 2016. The Spurs got screwed and you know it. The out of bounds push by Waiters. Pop punting it like he did the Warriors after Kawhi got injured. The refs were horrible that series. It was really bad luck.

    He's not in his 20's anymore. Getting back to peak LMA are long gone, don't care how much he works this summer. If he's lucky, he maintains instead of declines even more.

    We are being too optimistic though, the guy thinks he's already great enough as is -- its the coach and touches he needs. He probably spends this summer eating cheetos and watching the AS games he played in on youtube tbh..

    Depth sure worked in 2016.

    And last time Patty got open shots against them, he clanked his way to 23%.
    Simmons might not even return.
    ANDERSON?! Against a speedy team like them?
    Bertans is clanking shots in the SL; no guarantee he plays well against them.
    Gasoft airballs layups at the basket; Adams is going to eat him for breakfast.
    And if you're still pinning your hopes on Aldridge, be prepared to be severely disappointed.

    i mean i guess. We had 40 year old Duncan. Aldridge and the turd towers 2.0. Then we had Boban. Of course their frontline was better. But now I imagine Patterson will start next to Adams. You can even play Anderson as the starting four and in the playoffs you can play a guard.

    The Waiters push is sort of countered by the fact Ginobili did step out of bounds. However, it would have been a delay of game if called so not a turnover like if they called the offensive foul on Waiters.

    The worst thing was in Game 5 when Adams tripped Green and the refs gave Durant 2 free throws to take the lead. Otherwise the Spurs would have had the lead and the ball with 50 secs left. That was frustrating.

    Don't remind me. It was one of the worst officiated compilation in a minute

    Porker's whole career has been a "fading act" and he got a $43 million loyalty contract in his 30s. And people are going to complain about MVPatty getting paid?

    I do find it funny how when the Spurs lose it's always legit, but when the Spurs win it's a mile long run of luck mostly that should not be taken seriously.

    Word. CP3's game winner, then the table starting the clock to early and botching our play. Probably would of lost anyway but still. Last years OKC ref mess. and this years ZaZa. Pop been losing it the last few years. Just bad luck is all. I believe we break though one of these years.
