I thought Dice was starting? I guess we'll see.

Pops already announced it. Parker, Manu, RJ, Duncan and Blair are gonna be starting on opening night.

I don't mind Blair starting over Dice but I am a little concerned about the timeframe of TS injury. The guy has been sitting for weeks. At first I thought he was ready to go a week ago but Pop was just being cautious and sitting him out. But to miss the opener is troublesome.

Splitter needs as many mins as possible to figure out our O/D schemes. We no longer have the luxury of starting off slowly and resting our vets for the playoff run. We have to fight tooth and nail for every win and get the highest playoff seed we can.

One to be opposite the Lakers bracket and too homecourt is a much if we are going to get out of the 2nd round.

Cool. I'm happy with that. Looks like Blair is getting a push this year. And I'm glad Pops is finally starting Manu, though I'm sure he'll be coming off the bench before the AS break.

Yeah I'm glad Manu is starting with the big 3, but our bench really lacks some firepower. I don't see Hill as a stud scorer. His offensive game is still very limited right now. I don't have that much confidence in Gary Neal other than being a shooter. James Anderson is still shy. McDyess and Bonner aren't scorers. I'm hoping Splitter shines with that second unit. Neal, Anderson, Dice, and Bonner are shooters. Splitter can be their low post scorer.

Is he suppossed to be ready for the start of the season?

Apparently he won't play the season opener vs Indy. He's a Spur now, he needs to get accustomed to being on the sideline in a suit sooner or later.
