The new big 3 look like they're starting to gel.

Seems like Danny's form has been a bit inconsistent lately. Checked out highlights for the Heat game and noticed there's a little curry in his release+dropping his arms behind his back after release. Then in last night's game he wasn't. Nothing major, really, just a silly observation. Then there's the shoes he's been wearing lately. Quite colorful. Ultimately, it's good to see his confidence/comfort level rising again.

Green defense was amazing in the fourth..he was so locked in that a line-up-juggling, near-white-flag-waving Pop stayed with him the entire quarter for full 12 mins..

He certainly put the clamps on.

The whole team seem to follow, go up another notch on d.

I have to disagree. Bowen's aging/retirement sent the Spurs perimeter defense into a tailspin until we filled his role with Leonard (Leonard's rookie year was basically a Bowen role) and then Green. Just think of the dead weight we tried to use until Kawhi. Centerpiece, , Udoka, Roger Mason, way past his prime Michael Finley, etc, etc.

according to you bowen was equal to tony... yet even you refer to that period as "the big 3 era".

do you think green is equal to kawhi or lma?



and if not then why do you consider it a big 3?

Catchier name.

But in reality, it was the Big 4 era. Bowen was a fantastic defender and impacted the game just as much Tony, if not more in some cases.

This is basically what the Spurs will look like when Tim & Manu retire. Not blowing teams out of the water, but still a pretty good team.
