There sure is a lot of undervaluing DMo. He made the year 3 jump to legit starter and he is in good position to make a nice haul on his next contract. I'm relieved LMA went elsewhere. I want to see DMo in year 4.
Man how championship are the spurs going get now? Dwight better demand a trade to the Clipper if he wants a shot at a championship.
Aldridge is a terrible defender. Also, I am really not sure how he and Duncan are going to work together. I mean don't get me wrong Pop had to do something, but aldridge completely changes how the spurs play on offense and defense. They no longer have belinili and Manu is on his last legs. They really only have Kawhi and Aldridge and Green. Parker and Duncan are slowing down at this point. They lost a lot of defense when they got rid of spliter. It really all depends on how good Green really is. I'm not sold that he is an elite shooting guard as of yet.
1. Gasol/ZBo. Gasol 5/5 on defense, 3/5 offense. Zbo 4/5 defense, 4/5 offense. 2. Howard/DMo. Howard 5/5 defense, 4/5 offense. DMo 3/5 defense, 4/5 offense. 3. Duncan/LMA. Duncan 4/5 defense, 4/5 offense. LMA 3/5 defense, 4/5 offense. 4. Davis/Asik. Davis 4/5 defense, 5/5 offense. Asik 4/5 defense, 1/5 offense. 5. Dirk/Jordan. Dirk 1/5 defense, 4/5 offense. Jordan 5/5 defense, 1/5 offense. Duncan gets knocked down a bit for his age and durability, but come playoffs will be scary. LMA is okay on defense, but I'm worried he'll do much better defensively in San Antonio's system. Davis, individually is great, but he can't do it all alone. Memphis has the most consistent front court, has always been a difficult matchup for teams, their playoff downfall has always been their back court.
Howard/DMo can score 38+ combined & solid D Jordan/Drik can give you 30+ points and ok D Gas/Rand can give you 33+ points & solid D Duncan/LMA can give you 40+ points and ok D A.D / Can give you 25 point alone +6 points from Omer and ok D Winner is D12/DMo. IMHO
Well, how many games is Duncan playing in the regular season? Didn't they let go of Splitter and Baynes.? LMA will have to carry the load in many games.
16/20 for Grizzlies 16/20 for Rox 15/20 for Spurs 14/20 for Pelicans 11/20 for Mavs For those who were wondering
Fixed for complete frontcourts. It's San Antonio and not even close in my opinion. After that I'd go w/ Memphis
Isn't Jeff Green Memphis' 3? I put Howard over current Duncan IMO. Especially now that Howard is learning his role. Aldridge out weighs DMo and Leonard outweighs Ariza (when he's healthy and he missed 1/4 of the season last year). If you wanna include depth in the front court, we have them all beat by miles.
