1. The Spurs can match the Warriors' small ball lineup
2. Aldridge adds another strong decision-maker in the post to the Spurs
3. Whatever the Spurs lost defensively this offseason, they've likely gained offensively
I wonder if the Sours will be able to run regular match-ups. Warriors would have trouble guarding both Duncan and Aldridge. With West off the bench, we can overpower them with the front line. Draymond agree is a good defender but this is a lot to ask for, assuming about gets the other player.
What would be our line up against Curry, Dray, Klay, Barnes, Iggy?
thought the Spurs already matched up well the GS before this FA frenzy
They did and then some imo.
The whole "We'll make up in offense what we lost in defense" thing doesn't usually work out. We need to be a great defensive team, or at the least very good, and I think we will be.
nice article
thanks Sir!
(we are going to the league, hahahaha)
"Aldridge is a weak-side passing MONSTER"
Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
There's one guy who can cover Lamarcus, and the Spurs just made sure that he's in the eastern conference.
cant wait for mills gino diaw west bonner to put a hurt on these fools
yea i was impressed by how tiagos length bothered lma, without fouling too
that's why I m sick of all the Splitter gets (injury prone, soft) ... without him we do not win the 2014 championship. Its that simple ...
True. I want him back when he's an FA in 2 years.
Yeah, although his contract year might be the best he has left ... just a guess that he would be healthier in that season.
Aldridge and West over Splitter and Baynes will definitely make us easily the hardest team the Warriors will have to try to beat. Splitter and Baynes are almost unplayable against their vaunted small lineup with Dray/Iggy at center/PF. Bogut and Ezeli aren't good enough scorers to warrant needing an active big man to fend those guys off; if anything, if one of those guys is in the game, the Spurs will eat them alive all day. Green and Kawhi are great and can make the Splash Brothers inefficient (though they'll still get their points, hopefully on many more crowded attempts).
The main issue is, what if we face off against Houston or Memphis in the playoffs. We no longer have Baynes to piss off Dwert, and against Memphis Aldridge will have to guard one of their twin towers, which will ultimately lead to a mismatch. Doubling off Tony Allen is fine, but what happens when they have 2 shooters in the game and Conley? LMA will be exposed, a-la McDyess/Turd Towers in 2011.
We have won 32 in a row against GSW at home. And Kerr legitimately fears us, saying we are their biggest threat.
If anything, by adding our new lineup we give them a better chance to beat us because the old formula worked 32 times out of 32. I respect gsw as the team to beat for other teams, but for us i am happy taking them on first round or wcf. Our biggest threat LAC got neutered, Rockets and Pelicans are the 2 teams i fear, both with legit big man centers
Remember, those 32 all came in the TD era, and most of those featured the Warriors trotting out "stars" like Antawn Jamison, Jason Richardson, Monta Ellis, Chris Mills, Adonal Foyle, Dean Oliver and the like...
I thought I watched all Dominique Wilkins highlight dunks ... wow
If we are using that reasoning...then why didn't we win in 2013 with him? btw, I'll take Rasho Nesterovic any day over Tiago, tbh
It means they're ed
To sum it up nicely
