Opening day roster prediction

[CGD]

Damn good starting line up and depth:

Parker
Green
Leonard
Aldridge
Duncan

Mills
Ginobilli
Anderson
Diaw
Marjonovic

McCallum
Simmons
Butler
West
Bonner

[Spurtacular]

*coughs twice* Yeah, I'd like to revise my Jimmer over Butler prediction, please.

You'd be wrong.

[Seventyniner]

1. Duncan - C
2. Aldridge - PF/C
3. Leonard - SF
4. Green - SG/SF
5. Parker - PG
6. Ginobili - SG
7. Diaw - PF
8. Mills - PG
9. West - PF/C
10. Anderson - SF
11. Marjanovic - C
12. McCallum - PG
13. Bonner - PF
14. Butler - SF
15. Simmons - SG

This, though I might put Simmons above Bonner and Butler.

[spurtech09]

Take out Thomas/Fredette and add Butler/Simmons.

+1

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

I think the 13-15 spots are up for grabs. I imagine it looking like this:

14 - Marjanovic
15 - Simmons
________________________
16 - Butler
17 - Fredette

Anybody foreseeing a trade?

[SAGirl]

Is Bonner injured TBH? He played only 5 mins the first game and had -4 impact but in reality didn't contribute a thing and missed his 2 threes that he took. He was seen with hot towels on both calves in the bench. Last game was sitting next to the coaches and didn't play either. Butler has been getting Bonner minutes as a stretch 4. Everyone else expected to contribute this year and some guys who are trying to earn a spot have played, except Diaw who's in rehab (I don't know what he tweaked??). Maybe the coaches are getting a look at Butler as a possible 3/4 stretch forward.

14 - Marjanovic
15 - Simmons

16 - Butler

I think Boban's slow learning curve, may mean Bonner makes the team again.

Jimmer, I suspect, won't make it. Hoping for Butler but he's far from a sure thing.

[tholdren]

Boban needs some footwork. Simmons is too out of control.

Who the is 13 in that scenario?

[TD 21]

This, though I might put Simmons above Bonner and Butler.

Simmons is going to be spending plenty of time in the D-League, barring simultaneous wing injuries.

Bonner/Butler will be dependent on whether Anderson nails down fourth wing. If he does, they'll probably activate Bonner more often than not just out of seniority with the organization. For balance/blowout purposes, it would obviously make more sense to dress five wings/bigs than four/six, though.

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

Who the is 13 in that scenario?

It was Bonner, but now I'm not thinking he's a lock either.

13 - Marjanovic
14 - Simmons
15 - Bonner
16 - Butler (cut)
17 - Fredette (cut)

To be honest, if Butler would have had a great game tonight, I think he'd have made it over Matty.

Then who's 12?

Parker, Mills
Green, Manu
Leonard, Anderson
Aldridge, West
Duncan, Diaw.

I'm willing to accept that those are the top 10. With the five you listed, that leaves McCallum, Ndoye, Wiliams, Sykes and Thomas. You have two of those five making the team. McCallum, sure. He's 11. But who else?
