So do you guys think that Baynes, T-Mac and Diaw are going to be the big factors against Los Osos? Some big bodies? T-Mac can go out and break Prince in half, no? Baynes can bang with Gasol and Diaw can make Z-Bo work. Que creen ustedes?
It will be criminal to go Neal or Bonner against MEM, instead of McGrady.
We are missing the size Stephen Jackson brought us, and will miss those minutes even more against MEM.
Imagine Neal guarding Dooling. Bonner guarding Darrell Arthur.

Yeah, he was practically running in concrete when he took Jefferson off the dribble for an open shot, and an assist to Blair. And even more so when he got back on the break to block a shot
Are you really ignorant enough to think after watching bonner for years that he is shorter than T-Mac? Bonner is 6-10 and thats a very legit height, T-mac has been listed as 6'8" his whole career and personally I think its a bit rounding up.
Bonner plays like he's 6'5" in heels. I think McGrady blocked more shots in game 5 than Bonner has the whole year.
According to the DX measurements for both guys without shoes, Bonner is 6'9" with a 6'8" reach. McGrady is 6'7" with a 7'4" reach.
After watching Bonner for years, I'm surprised his arms are that long, since he rarely puts them up before he fouls.
Even if he's late on rotations, he's better to have in the game because due to his years with the team he's aware of what he's doing wrong when he does it...
O_V then say T-Mac plays with more length or reach, rather than saying that bonner is shorter since he demonstrably isn't. I do agree that Bonner doesn't use his size well and does have fairly short arms for his height but when you say shorter you are very strongly implying height.
McGrady advances through two playoff series!
Damn! Never knew that TMac is even longer than Kawhi!
Oh well, maybe he'll be needed in the finals.
Screw Neal. I'd rather play McGrady. In terms of Bonner, it depends who the type of player he is guarding. If he is guarding a slow, average offensive back to the basket center, then Bonner can defend that, and on offense stretch the floor.
Randolph is a bull in the paint with nice touch around the basket, and is the best rebounder in the game. Randolph basically can get position when he wants to. If Randolph wants to shoot, he will(he hasn't been shooting a lot of jumpers this season.) Length and quickness will bother Zbo. Bonner has neither.
Marc Gasol is primarily a baseline jump shooter now. He can finish in the post if he gets position obviously with his giant size and soft hands. You can't give Gasol any space, and length would help. Again, Bonner doesn't have length, or the toughness to bother Gasol. Gasol will shoot and make those all day.
Bonner can't even guard Arthur because of his quickness, and offensive game. Baynes would be a better option with his size, and grit in this series. Gasol will probably play 42-45 minutes per game so minutes will be there.
Get TMac in the game before garbage time and see how his compe iveness shows up and maybe give him 5mins or so cant hurt to see what hes got left
To get past the Grizz Pop is going to have to play McGrady and Baynes at least ten minutes a game.
T Mac sighting, late in 4th, jacking up 3s
T-Mac Finals MVP.
tmac kinda sux tbh but whatever i love seeing him out there
Has McGrady scored a single point at all for the Spurs this postseason? Someone correct me if I'm wrong, but it seems like every shot has missed.
End of the shot clock tbh.T Mac sighting, late in 4th, jacking up 3s
They were trying to feed him on the third team a bit when they realized with 3 minutes left that he was the only one that hadn't scored. Its weird his initial shot selection wasn't bad but just kept rimming out.
It's always nice to root for the underdog tbh
http://www.cbssports.com/nba/blog/ey...-in-the-cornerVeteran guard/forward Tracy McGrady, who has become the Spurs' victory cigar in games after being signed at the end of the season, said that when the Spurs brought him in, they made it abundantly clear there were no assurances as far as his playing time.
"There were no promises. Pop said 'I might play you or might not.' And he came to ask if I was cool with that. And I said I was cool with that. I want to play if I can, but if not, I'll support the guys."
