Game 26 Grades: Spurs @ Warriors

I would have not problem at this point trading Green and CoJo and Bonner to get a better replacement for Green.

You would actually have a real problem trying to turn that package into a better player than Green, unless you're willing to take on an albatross of contract like Gerald Wallace. Even then, it would be debatable if that trade makes the team better in the short run, let alone the long term ramifications.

Great job on the game review and grades. Nice recognition that Tim is the Man even when he is not actively playing. That was one of the best games all year just for the sheer pleasure of watching the bench beat a good team on their home court. Even better when Mark Jackson is the opposing coach.

I think putting a calendar thread together for the game grades is a great idea.

I'd be down to the game grades for when the Raptors visit the Spurs on the 23rd, unless someone else is already going that.

Obviously, the more game grades from Bruno the better

OK, let's do a calendar thread for games grades.

If you look more globally, Spurs roster is split apart this year. On the one hand there are 9 quality players with Parker, Mills, Belinelli, Green, Ginobili, Leonard, Diaw, Splitter and Duncan. On the other hand, there are some bad players with Joseph, De Colo, Bonner, Ayres and Baynes . The gap between these two groups is quite huge.

It's really nice to have a quality depth of 9 players but 10 would be perfect. When you look at this 9 players roster, a mobile PF or big SF would be the perfect complement.

Well 9 guys suits payoff standards but when it comes to the spurs it's not enough when most guys are not playing big minutes in every game. I don't know if we can have 7 guys that can play ~40 minutes. and I still have in mind disappearing Splitter in the Finals series along with Green. In the situation you need to have somebody that can step up and you can rely on him. Is there anybody from that bad players side who can manage it on a big stage? I sincerely doubt it
