On Maximum Sports tonight, they showed a clip of RC. Summarizing, RC said the Spurs don't want to turn into something they are not. They have always been a team that played good defense and defended the rim. The Spurs will play Timmy more at the 5. He said when they do that, they suffer a bit in that regard (defending the rim). With the moves the Spurs have made, the approach won't be necessarily who plays Center and who plays Forward, but more of a case of playing 2 Bigs. They want to stay flexible with the ability to play with multiple looks, even going small like they did in the playoffs and win..or even be the best team.
What he said seemed a bit contradictory...Timmy a 5 or just a Big? However, I do think I see where they are trying to go with these moves. Flexibility in the Bigs and not just a couple of Diplodicus' post men.
