Same as last season, and we did alright.
if we don't resign g-rob, dont use the MLE on a free agent SF
Can we do without one?
Or is it pretty much a given we will get a SF from SOMEWHERE?
what do you all think
Same as last season, and we did alright.
no we had blatant matchup problems with big athletic sf's all year..
If we don't sign a SF, we are still in excellent shape.
We don't really need one, our latest le just proved that correct.
Barry, Manu, TP... Beno, Manu, Barry
our 3 guard line ups seem to work fine, 2 SG's, 1 PG.
we still won the NBA le, and that's all that matters.
Pop didnt play 3 guard lineups very often at all in the regular season
he pulled that outta the hat in crucial playoff situations
i dont think he likes 3 guard lineups
but we are talking about next season....defending a le is way harder than winning the first
Oh really, then who did he play when Bowen was out???
That's what I remember all season long...we didn't even have another SF that played, and we never played 3 big men, so that leads us to the conclusion that he did it all season.
Linton Johnson didn't play all year. There might be hope with him.
Also, since Scola isn't coming this year (he might...) we have the MLE to bring a FA SF to the team.
Big Dog is not the answer at three. Sorry. He good for spot up minutes but not 20 plus minutes.
bruce bowen averaged 32 mins a game, 3rd highest on the team, higher than ginobili even
hes out there ALOT..and hes 1 year older now..
We just added Oberto.
Tim will be healthier (hopefully), and the summer isn't over yet.
We have time.
And he's in great shape, and he seems like he can continue doing it.
1 WHOLE YEAR!?
Wow... that's a lot.

i sure hope he can, i mean i really really do, hes one of my favorite spurs
i dont think we've resigned LJ3 yet, or have we?
One of my favorite spurs too.
Bruce Bowen is the man. He will be fine next year.
It isn't a bad idea to get another SF though, I like the Battier idea, he would fit in great.
I still think Manu can play the SF spot. He can defend pretty well too.
Walter Herrmann
Said it last year and I'll say it again. SIGN HIM!
In 2003 for Fuenlabrada he avg. 22 pts and 10 rebs.
He's 6'8 and can win the All-Star dunk contest if he entered, lol.
The spurs don't have to worry about the rare long athletic small forwards. Barry can guard them or Brown can guard them. Horry could guard them also.
I say forget about that position because putting 2 shooting guards with a point guard has been working. It worked for Miami also.
That's a good Boozer, good Boozer.
the spurs are gonna go as far as the big 4 take us
duncan,manu,parker, and bowen
If we are having trouble at that spot before the trade deadline, and Rasho is still around, I think a trade will happen and one will get picked up. I don't think it will be resolved during the offseason, except for resigning Devin. If we are hurting, we will get one.
Damn, he looks like he'd be a of a rugby player.
Whoa. That won't get it done. Last season was a . True we won it all, but think how tough it was. Think it'll get easier or stay the same next season? Think again. The rest of the league is working hard to improve their weaknesses, and they're all gunning for us. If the Spurs want to repeat, they need to address their weaknesses as well, and depth at the 3 tops the list. It's glaring. If Bowen goes down or his play diminishes, and we don't have a backup who can reliably (cough, Brown's back, Barry's no shows) contribute big minutes, we're hosed.
Pop and RC know this. They'll get it done.
As for Hermann, he'd be a project with a lot of upside, but we sure could use a proven SF right now if repeating is the goal.
barry can guard long athletic sfs????? horry can guard athletic long sfs?????
brown has some merit
but dude seriously youre re ed
i remember watching that herrmann dude in the olympics, his ball handling sucks ass he'd get picked every time he drove it in the nba
The 2nd best team in the West just got better. The Lakers are alive again and compe ion out West is getting more intense.
But nahhhhhh we dont need no SF.
Gimme a damn break. If we dont get one we're screwed.
