Tiago is a PnR specialist.

GVC's match-ups make a lot of sense. Unfortunately we won't start the big three.

This I know. He also averages an absurd FG% as of late. Would you suggest leaving Al at the 4, and throwing Favors at Splitter then? Because I am definitely willing to bet that we will be seeing more Tiago, than Blair. I am definitely reluctant to leave Favors on Duncan, because he will get in foul trouble awfully quick. We CANNOT have Favors in foul-trouble, or we are gonna get swept.

i mean, I fear that Corbin won't try something unorthodox when he needs to. And, I fear that Jefferson will continue to get uber-burned on PnR and not draw fouls.
Both of these dudes need to get with the times.

Hollinger's right. Spurs swing the ball so effectively that the big lineup is going to have trouble covering all that ground. What's made it effective is Favors' development defensively. He can get inside/out quick and he just swarms the ball in the lane (pretty KG-esque lately). But ideally you want speedier guys who can rotate with precision against the Spurs. I'm sure the combo of Battier/Allen was the key against the Spurs last year for Memphis.
Still, it's our best chance and I'd like to see it get a lot of minutes. More importantly, I think Favors has to be out there as much as possible with either Al or Sap. I don't want to see too much Favors/Kanter, and frankly Kanter should be used sparingly.

Spurs fan here, and yes Blair has been getting a lot less playing time as of late when everyone has played (he got something like 40 minutes against GSW) and Diaw/Splitter have been playing outstanding ball since then. Bonner's defense has picked up as well but he has a tendency to kind of fall off come playoff time.
Or the term I used when I went out with your mom and her sister. Your aunt wasn't much to write home about, but your mother...? Daaay Um.

The thing we have to keep in mind here is that there's only so much room for players on the court. We put three big guys, and it really congests the space the Spurs have to operate. The combination of Millsap, Favors, and Jefferson in the paint is enough to get a 3-second violation at any given time. Sometimes I kind of wonder what the solution is, but then I think that maybe Vlade Divac can still play ball. I know he could once, I'm sure he could again.

Hmmm. I am interested to see how the match ups play out. Unfortunately, I feel like Pop is MUCH better at adjusting in-game, than Corbin. He is a rook, after all. I know Howard or Carroll will be starting, but I am predicting a healthy dose of Sap-Favors-Al as our frontcourt for the rest of the game; we will see how the Spurs react, and whether Corbin has any counter-adjustments as a result.
That's not all I gave her. Peder-familious. You can call me Darth Dad.
So you're the **** that brought mantooth into the world, huh? Don't know that I woulda told that one ..
