As of now, you guys have the deeper bench. But we have a bigger impact player on the bench with Ginobli (if he stays healthy). Not to mention, there is no guarantee you guys will be able to keep both Ariza and Odom. Why list Manu on the bench and not Odom? They will both be bench players next season (assuming Odom resigns).true enough. But for the sake of comparison on my post, he actually makes your starting 5 appear stronger. So moving him to the bench, would only help my argument. lol Thanks though.

It's just a matter of accuracy at this point.
LOL...our 2nd best player is currently better than your first best. @"it's hard to judge"

Your second best player is Gasol. lol. He would be our 3rd option on offense last year, and the 4th option if he played for us this year LOL.
The Spurs really, REALLY needed more athleticism, and they got it. They are going to be fine, only problem is the low basketball IQ with Gooden AND Jefferson in the starting line-up. As for Ginobili... that nigga is way past his prime, they can't count on him anymore. Don't get your hopes up for him. I see him playing in Europe in 2 years.

duncan > gasolall day, every day
Quote from: HACK WILSON on July 07, 2009, 06:54:24 PMduncan > gasolall day, every daylol@ NIK. Even Laker fans know how stupid he sounds sometimes. Gasol was a great pick up for the Lakers, no doubt. And he definetely contributed last year. There is no way Kobe would have won a title last year without him. BUT, sometimes NIK gets a little excited and makes retarded claims about his team that would have Jack Haley callin him a cheerleader lol
Cmon NIK! There has never been a single year when Gasol was bette than TD, how can you even argue this?
Quote from: S P I C E on July 07, 2009, 10:38:41 PMCmon NIK! There has never been a single year when Gasol was bette than TD, how can you even argue this?they scored virtually the same amount of points, while Gasol was the SECOND OPTION...Gasol also shot MUCH better percentages across the board and grabbed only 1 less board, despite playing with a much thicker front court. Gasol had the better season..Duncan was hurt half the time...dude is older now and more fragile.

How is that difficult to understand? lol Youre making yourself sound even more ridiculous the longer you argue. Gasol being a SECOND OPTION definetely contributes to his high shooting percentage. While TD is typically drawing double teams and having to score quick in order to avoid them, Gasol is benefiting from the double teams that Kobe draws, particular when driving to the lane...giving Gasol wide open looks at the basket lol. Get your basketball IQ up man...

Get your basketball IQ up man...you are such a fucking dumbass, daygo, i swear....LOL. Gasol had 12.9 shot attempts a game and scored 18.9. Duncan had 14.8 shot attempts and scored 19.3...really now, are you retarded? seriously? which stat looks better to you, moron? and did you ever stop to think that Duncan played 33 mins because thats all he was good for?? im sick of your pathetic shit, you try to argue the dumbest points and act like peoples valid opinions are ridiculous while doing so...STFU for once and realize how fucking stupid u look. you can say Duncan had a better season, go ahead...but tryna act like im way off for sayin Gasol had the more solid season is fuckin retarded, straight up.
