Here’s some truth nuggets for you. If Tim Duncan “rested” for every game, I would never stop making Matt Bonner and Aron Baynes videos. With those two manning the middle, it’s like a neverending highlight reel of low-athleticism plodders somehow scoring points.
The next logical step is to play both of them at the same time for at least thirty minutes. Matt Bonner is more of a four on offense anyway, so I’m sure Pop can coach them to success. Bonner’s “catapult threes” combined with Aron’s “baynging” would be a matchup nightmare for any team, including the Spurs themselves.
New idea: if the Spurs played clones of themselves, who would win?
