Butler was a panic add. Spurs should've believed in all the young guys; Anderson, Simmons, Jimmer who are all at the end of the bench anyhow.

The lane is congested with both LMA and Duncan posting up. When Leonard wants to post up, its even more congested.

With Duncan and LMA on the floor, you want LMA to be a stretch 4. He should start practicing taking 3 point shots.

Also LMA needs to start playing PNR just the way Splitter did. Parker and Leonard need to start practicing how to play a two man game with LMA.

If he can dish that out in small doses over the reg season, he's gonna be a lot healthier come playoff time.

Tony can't take the volume of hits he used to take going to the basket. He doesn't have to score like he used to.

That is your opinion and it's shared by some, so it's not a bull take. Unlike those other guys you mention though, this kid can play. Many other dudes just don't have IQ to really play, are uncoordinated, never learned to shoot, dribble or whatever, have no absolute basketball talent, other than they were big enough to think they could play basketball maybe. Fact is most players who enter the league don't stick. He's still got to prove he belongs, but I think he can be a nice roleplayer for us. You could be pleasantly surprised, but I will leave you to your gloom and doom and you will leave me to my blind fandom and we can call it a day.

At least I can appreciate your civility versus calling me a or a moronic dumbass or something.

Thanks for the compliment.
I am a girl, but that doesn't matter.
Enjoy hanging out with the community, as long as you ignore the trolling, there are a few funny guys around here, and some occasionally interesting bball talk.
Cheers.

My pleasure. Good to read some good basketball takes. Yours have been spot on.

Defense was superb in the second half. Brooklyn got no good looks from the perimeter like they did in the first half.

Boban and Ray will see plenty of time in b2b's, probably in NY on Monday.

Nothing like Spurs basketball on a Sunday.
