How does Pop handle the bigs, going forward?

The more I think about the more I think bonan would get the better of Adams.buut Popazit is an old army asshole who doesn't "play" rookies

Pop was in the USAF, not the Army. He was a Captain with MOS 8054 intel.

We don't have enough 3pt shooters to spread the defense. Matt Bonner might enter the game for a few minutes to see how they respond to him hanging around the 3pt line.

Agreed. They played an excellent three quarters, in an almost impossible game to win in the NBA (against an elite team, having won the first game on the road), yet it always felt like they'd lose in the end, because it took until the end of the 3rd to make their first three.

It's probably impossible to win it all in today's NBA with so little three-point shooting. It doesn't matter how high IQ or great defensively you are, it's tough to beat elite teams on a steady diet of post ups and mid range jumpers.

Pop...

Pg-Manu-Green-Kawhi-LMA lineups come on Pop!

There is no way OKC can keep their physical bigs on the floor up against that kind of offence and we take our biggest weaknesses out of the game getting murdered under the rim by the OKC bigs.

Kerr and Warriors would not even think twice about doing this.

It's not even like Kawhi isn't a better rebounder than West and Diaw.

Not sure what to do, at this point..small-ball with more Kyle and Kawhi at the 4 for more offense? They are both better at rebounding than West and Diaw, so it's not like the Spurs would be losing much..

It's also a better option than guarding Durant with West, obviously..bigs switching is killing the Spurs, they could use more mobility at the 4..

I don't really care what Pop tries to do..whether it's Boban getting some run, going small and try to beat them with offense, have Duncan come off the bench to match Kanter, even Matt ing Bonner

It doesn't matter, I just want to see something different..so far, the handling of bigs as helped put the Spurs in a 2-3 hole..you can't keep doing the same , it's clearly not working..

The adjustment might not work, the odds are probably against it considering the flawed personnel, but you have to do SOMETHING different..
