I hope some if the younger guys step up!

The Spurs have been hanging on the past few years using baling wire and tape to hold things together. They’re still pretty good but the loss of Ginobli will be tough to overcome. The positive side is that it may force Pop to play younger more athletic players which he has an aversion to doing. Also, I’ve seen Minnesota play twice now on TV and they look pretty good. Rubio and Barrera are making a big difference while Kevin Love is better than ever.

Last 2 seeds I think will go to Denver and Minnasota/Houston. This is a huge blow. Duncan is falling off fast and TP looks like his best days are now behind him, he’s still good and will be for many years, all I’m saying is he is not going to get any better, no real centers besides Splitter spell disaster out west, and Richard Jefferson? HAA! I don’t have a clue as to why he didn’t get waived. Pop’ is a great coach but he’s got his work cut out for him.
