Yawn....
it's not even close how much better Kurt Thomas is in this system
Thomas has his uses. So does Oberto. Like Nazr and Rasho...they will platoon.
Oberto will come off the bench, doesn't mean he won't play at all
Spurs have no choice but to play him, Spurs can't rely on Bonner for quality min
Uh they weren't before they got Thomas.....
is this the beginnings of the Church of Kurt? i don't think CoK sounds right.
Oberto had a off night. Pops sensed it from the beginning. No worries, he will be back.
I disagree. Oberto's a good passer and finisher, and he's a good defender that can guard the more versatile forwards.
This is a non-topic....
Oberto and Thomas will both be useful in the future, but the matchup called for alot of small ball this time around.
I liked what I saw out of Thomas, but you can always rely on consistent production from Fab.
Depends on what you need. We'd be crazy not to play Oberto against small ball as he shoots about 100% when fed against weak interiors.
Trust SD21 to create the dumbest thread for the day.![]()
Will Thomas take minutes from Oberto?
More than likely, hes a better player.
I don't think hes gonna take his starting spot though.
It's amazing how stupid you continue to be. I already told you this once, but since you seem to be incapable of understanding, allow me to break it down for you: Rasho sprained his ankle and went on the injured list on April 10, 2005. Nazr started the last five games of the regular season because Rasho was unavailable.
I'm not sure why you feel the need to see a great addition to the team as a reason to start dogging on someone else on the team. I guess it's because you're a re .
Maybe now we're number one in the Division, Pop can give Duncan a spell and play Oberto & Thomas when Parker gets it going.
Basketball is won by controlling matchups, and the Spurs just got much deeper at matching up with true big men. Now have 12 fouls and a lot of physicality to throw at Shaq, Gasol, Boozer, etc.
It's amazing how some people on this board like to isolate people and completely ignore the concept of team and the ability for two players with different strengths to both contribute to making the team deeper.
I think I like Kurt Thomas off the bench.
I will up this thread when KT starts to start, and just further expose how stupid people are
It depends on what happens to the rotations. Personally, if Manu goes back to being the 6th man off the bench, then I would prefer Fabs to become the 7th man off the bench to put him and Manu on the floor together. Damon, Manu, Fin/Ime, Fabs, and Thomas/Duncan together should make a great second unit.
It would be nice to have Oberto playing backup when Ginobili goes back to the bench. They really seem to click when paired together.
Edit: You beat me to it.
All of sudden Kurt is god
GMAB
Give SD21 a break - he's still butthurt over the Spurs not getting Artest.![]()
I will give everybody a break
