I know a lot of it has to do with integrating Hill and Mason, as well as Gooden now, but this team no matter how healthy, will never be Spurs ready come April and May.
I will give you that fact that the overall BBIQ is probably lower than any Spurs team in the Pop/TD era. However, it's unfair to say that Hill and Mason bring down the collective BBIQ. I say that because I've personally seen many instances where TP, TD, Finley and Bonner all have made very dumb and carelss mistakes. Whether it be ill-advised passes, careless turnovers or failed rotations. Look at the recent game versus the Thunder. Those weren't rookies making those terrible, costly, turnovers. Those were the veteran players, along with the newbie Mason.
