Spurs @ Kings

Cousins said he told Tim Duncan during the game "S#@! you're good."

Ain't that the truth. I haven't watched the Spurs much this season, but Duncan straight up schooled Cousins a few times tonight. Ginobili is still one of the best 2-guards in the league, and Parker doesn't seem to have lost a step either.

I don't know if anyone saw it but there was a time during the game where the camera showed both Duncan & Cousins together off the ball, Duncan told Cousins "WTF you are flailing around, HUH??" lol Duncan actually mimicked Cousins' "flailing" to prove the point.

Then there's what do you do? Move Thornton to the bench and he's basically playing behind a guy who should be playing 35 minutes a game. It's hard to trade him as well because (unless a GM is an idiot--far from a given) he'll realize that unless he either has Dwight Howard at the 5 OR a PG who can defend the 2 his team will be getting lit up night in and night out by whoever Thornton guards.

There are 96 minutes between the PG and the SG spots. Thats more than enough minutes between the three of them (IT, Evans, Thornton). Evans gets 34, Thornton gets 32, Thomas gets 30.

If Terrance Williams keeps playing the way he has I'm even open to him starting right now. Why not? Picking him up on a 10 day contract was almost like getting a free mid first round pick (I guess if you count the mid first rounder we lost with the Hickson trade that evens out). He's athletic, gets after it defensively, and his jumper looks good.

IT
Evans/Thornton
Williams/Salmons
Thompson/Greene
Cousins/Hayes

Thats 9 men deep, no smallball, and solid defense.

Twill is still kind of small for the small forward spot though

He's the same height as Salmons and weighs more then 10 lbs more then him. I think he's the right size.
