What are the keys to the championship?

Health - Manu has to slightly re-tool his game. Spurs need to do more yoga. Pop needs to limit Timmy's minutes more than ever and sit out the old guys on a back to back.

Integrate the role players - George Hill, Haislip, Blair, and Hairston/McClinton have to get major minutes during the regular season so that they can contribute come playoff time. Mcdyess should fit like a glove - just keep him healthy.

Home Court Advantage - Although Pop has de-emphasized in the past, it's critical given the level of compe ion in the West. Being stuck in a plane after game 7 before flying to LA may have ruined our chances 2 years ago.

Pray to a higher power or wish for good luck.

Health. Period.

Health is the obvious one, but production from the bench is the next..if some of our young bench players produce like I expect them to, it'll be huge for this team..that would mean more rest for the starters, and the better this team is, the more blow-outs will have, resulting in more rest for the starters..

those are the only 2 aspects I'm currently worried about..July 12th will start answering SOME questions..
