PG: Steve Nash / Sebastian Telfair
SG: Jared Dudley / Shannon Brown
SF: Grant Hill / Michael Redd
PF: Channing Frye / Markieff Morris
C: Marcin Gortat / Robin Lopez

PG: Tony Parker / Patrick Mills
SG: Danny Green / Manu Ginobili
SF: Kawhi Leonard / Stephen Jackson
PF: DeJuan Blair / Boris Diaw
C: Tim Duncan / Tiago Splitter

Tough game. Jackson, Ginobili and Diaw off the bench? I'll expect Grant to play 48 minutes.

Damn...The Spurs roster is looking deep. They could squeeze another finals run out of Timmy and co.

As long as they avoid Memphis in the first two rounds I see them as the conference champion. Best coach in the league, championship experience and an incredible deep roster.

what a smart FO - look who they picked up just the last while, they added green, leonard ...

I hate the Suns management so much

Green already played for the Spurs last season. Impressive, unexpected developement. I liked Leonard and thought that we should've drafted him but I heard that he refused to work out for us. Markieff was a great pick, too. But I agree, we should sign some cheap guys and see if they could develope into something. Spurs did that over the last few years and had great success.

Another great season for the Spurs so we better play hard or they'll blow us out. Our bench has been playing well lately so hopefully it carries into tonight game.

Go Suns!!!

David Stern will be attending this game and Boris Diaw returns in Spurs uni....

Irony anyone?

What happened to Gary Neal and Matt Bonner for the Spurs? I thought they were part of the 2nd unit...

Spurs have been playing uptempo - this could be a fast game

Man that is a deeeeep Spurs team. That bench rivals our bench from 2010. Diaw, Jackson, and Ginobili and Splitter wow

Captain Jack and Splitter out tonight.

Missing the good luck charm tonite. Boris must have her stashed away for after the game.

My question is they gonna have hill on tony and Dudley on ginobli or what???? Cause Nash will get bodied by Leonard. So just curious

Calvin Klein · Post #15 » by **Calvin Klein** » Wed Mar 28, 2012 1:20 am

Nash will probably try to guard Parker.

No jackson or splitter helps our chances against them.

Hill is out. Brown starts.

Grant Hill is out tonight vs. SA with the right knee strain that sidelined him for Sunday's second half. Brown will start.
