Depth in the front court is what bothers me a bit. I think Blair and Bonner will be fine but not too sure about Haislip and Mahimni. I think if by mid season neither of these guys are producing then we make a trade for another big. I also am assuming that Hill steps up and can run the point while tony gets short breathers. Another option is picking Fab up for the minimum just not sure if the spurs want to carry 7 bigs going into the season

Best Spurs offseason thus far. I'll give them an A. They need to add another big man to their frontcourt next to TD to help him on defense and rebounds.

On paper it is an A, but dang you guys have made a major rebuild on the fly and sometimes that doesn't work out as planned. Mcdyess was a nice pick up, Blair was a nice draft pick, and Jefferson is a solid player. I even like McClinton, how has he looked during the Summer League?

No Gortat, and I don't see the big whoop with adding Marion. He sucks.

No need for another big man heck we already are carrying 6. They are young and have to prove them selves but have shown potential to contribute. I have been very disappointed with Mcclintoc in the summer league. The guy is playing worse than Hill did last year (if that possible). But he was a late 2nd rounder and 1 yr of summer league doesn't really prove too much...just ask Hill. I hope the kid can settle down and shows the spurs what he can do. Even if he doesnt come around until he makes it to Austin. I like his game and think he could have a bright future in the league.

Somes 7 footers would've been nice but Dyess, Haislip, and Blair will do. Besides Duncan will make them all better.

I'd be interested on seeing who starts next to Duncan and whether they'll list Duncan as Center.

It'd be f-in weird to see Dice or Blair be listed as Center next to our PF Tim Duncan.

Dice will start next to Timmy. Remember pop doesn't like to rely on rookies all that much. They always have to earn his trust. Heck he would start bonner over blair for that matter. TD will be list as a forward. Dice will play C on the score sheet then move over to PF after the tip.
