Thomas is just too slow to the ball. Unless the ball falls in his hands he isn't going to go and get it. Too many people here tought Thomas was going to be a major contributor and were ready to annoit the spurs champions after they got him. His play doesn't surprise me at all.
He is no better than a limited role player towards the down side of his career and to expect much more was just blind homerism..
pop prefers savy over athletic, and i dont think its a bad strategy. problem is athletic beats injured handily. these PO's will be rough, but we still have what it takes, and i trust that playing the big 3 an extra 5-6 minutes will help a lot.
where was this thread at the beginning of the season?
you look old when you lose you are they experienced team that win
when you win it all

this front office has given duncan alot more help then david robinson
I made one earlier in the season, search is disabled so I started a new one.
Sue me.
you are broke why should I sue you
We all know the Spurs need to get a bit younger but they also need some more size.
Fabricio, Tim Duncan, Bonner, KT are all the size of Lamar Odom. Watching the game today, it was like munchkins trying to guard giants. Size wouldn't matter so much if they had quickness but none of those guys can even keep up with a 7'1 Pau.
Jacque Vaughn guarding 6'8" Luke Walton?
Finley 6'6 guarding 6'10 Odom?
Ime 6'5 guarding 6'10 Odom?
Sasha Vujacic 6'7 posting up 6'1 JV?
Pau 7'1 guarding 6'10 Duncan
All this led to either a foul, offensive rebound or a double-team with Fisher wide open for a 3 ball.
The only size advantage the Spurs have is Bowen guarding Kobe.
Other teams that will give Spurs size problems:
Hornets with 7' Tyson Chandler, 6'9 David West and a 6'10 Peja as small forward.
Suns with 7'2 Shaq and 6'10 Amare, 6'9 Diaw
Jazz with 6'11 Okur, 6'9 Boozer, 6'9 Kirelenko, 6'3 thug size guard DWill
Spurs gotta give up this small ball experiment and get back to Twin Towers mode...size and agility.
Hey they got VSpan![]()
Good post. It you don't have size you better have quickness. The spurs have neither against some of the top teams in the west.
the only choice I can fault the front office for is giving Bonner Scola's contract.
Big, big, big fault. Considering how well Scola's fit in and how badly Bonner has failed.
This is the Spurs Team we have. They deserve and demand your respect.
Go Spurs Go!!!
So Kurt Thomas isn't the best second big man we had since David Robinson?
