Have Manu check Livingston and Murray guard whoever's left. There's no Patty to exploit on the bench this time.

Spurs are simply a better defensive team without Parker. No doubt in my mind about that.

Warriors would have exploited the out of TP. Spurs have a better chance without him.. tbh

That was the silver lining in his injury.

I also think the silver lining was that it gave a higher ceiling to the team, since everyone had to step up their game. It meant Simmons and Anderson, Manu and Patty, and even Murray had to play (better). It was sink or swim and swim they did. Big time. Now they are oozing with confidence heading into the series, which is a big part of playoff basketball.

Spurs can't play Mills against the Dubs starters, we'd get swept. Need to go with a no PG line up.

[duncan2k5]

we need to play big against them...take away their klay/livingston post ups against our pgs

[james evans]

cmon now, we all know Popovich is starting Gasol and Aldridge

Luckily MEM was a good defensive test. Because HOU sucks there and GS defense is legit. The offense is more of a concern IMO than SA defense although both are obviously issues against an all time great team.
