    I agree with your point about the frontcourt Bruno, I even pointed it out in that thread even after showing the struggles of Parker and Ginobili..it's obviously a glaring need, and we aren't going to win anything without a legit #2 big man or a big man that can fit the need of a guy that can intimidate in the paint at a high level..

    I just made that thread to point out that we were losing every game with the backcourt getting outplayed on both ends..the efficiency differential points out both sides of the equation, so defense is relevant in the discussion..my point was that I believe our struggles were kind of fluky since I didn't expect Parker and Ginobili to struggle as much as they were at that point..

    My point about our backcourt was actually proven wrong in last game vs. Dallas, since our backcourt finally outplayed the opposing backcourt of a good team and we still lost, partly due to allowing 50 points in the paint..

    So the Ginobili-Parker struggles + the defensive struggles inside the paint are both the primary glaring issues for this team IMO..

    I want to see us play well against a good team...any of the elite or near-elite teams in the league on a night where each team has their weapons and has no excuses.

    THAT would make me feel better about the season so far.

    Well if Dice plays to the level we thought he could, I don't believe that Nene/Martin are better. I don't believe Dirk/Damp are better although that is close.

    Pau/Bynum/Odom is the toughest. Thing is no one knows if Dice has much left in the tank.
    Why would you think that Dice would all of the sudden play better in the playoffs when he hasn't done anything during the entire regular season?

    Look at the previous year(s) 2nd half of the season numbers vs the first. And I am not at all confident Dice can turn it around. I am speaking hypothetically.

    Huh? I'm sorry...I could hear you over the sound of this guy.
