Good thing we shipped Splitter to the other conference.
Always been a fan of his, but the fact he gave serious consideration to the ing Suns over the Spurs gave me pause. Can't deny he's an immense talent and great fit, however; as Harlem said, his game compliments Kawhi's perfectly.

True, that.
Never made it past first round w/o Lillard. If you skim through his stats against the Rox he almost always plays well against them. Against other teams he's his normal self. Has to pick up slack he previous season bec Batum was in a funk. Still failed to lift cross 1st round barrier. Operative term is "singlehandedly carried". Obviously won't need to do that in SA.
Always been a fan of his since he got drafted.

Well said.
It's not like we signed prime Shaq away from Orlando, but I like the LMA signing. He's a top 15 player in the NBA. He won't be relied upon to carry the team like Duncan did early in his career. His mid-range J will be fantastic with the TP pick & roll. A perfect plug 'n play for our offense.
His deficiencies are on the defensive end, and can be improved. And in a year or two we can always look for a rim protector to complement him on D.
I feel that our offense will be unstoppable, with 4/5 starters able to create their own shot. The trouble could be on the defensive end, which was sketchy anyway because Tiago's reoccurring injuries.
The possibility to replace Splitter/Baynes with LMA/West is an undeniable upgrade. No matter what I'm just unbelievably excited that our championship window remains open.
