Well, I think he's excelled in a very similar setting in Orlando, who's system basically mirrors the spurs. They have a dominant inside presence surrounded by a number of 3pt jumpshooters.. something Pietrus can do very well.

    What Pietrus would have also given the spurs this year is fiery defender who can guard a number of positions.. and especially the 2-3 where the spurs had the most problems. The Kobes, Lebrons, Durants, McGrady's, Anthony's of the league, etc.

    Butl the spurs picked up RMJ for cheaper instead, who really excelled in the shooting aspects, but not so much in the defensive aspect. You get what you pay for, I guess.

    Kind of history repeating itself.. the Spurs didn't want to commit the mid level exception to Stephen Jackson years ago, and now that decision looks like it might have cost them the chance to establish a legitimate dynasty.
    Once you go to GS, you are banned from the Spurs.

    The Cavs got gifted several phantom calls that put Howard in serious F/T at the end of the game.

    The Magic overcame a LOT of BS officiating to win that game and deserve all the props in the world.

    I find it oddly amusing that James has one of the best playoff games of his life and his team still loses. Reminds me a lot of Kobe's struggles throughout '04-07.

    The world got to see four times in ten years. We don't need to be reminded again.
