|
| | | SAN ANTONIO: GUARDS:Considering how exhausted he looked by the end of the Finals, don't be surprised if TONY PARKER gets more rest during the regular season . . . DANNY GREEN had a coming-out party this past June. A three-point specialist who can defend, the Spurs will lean on him more heavily during the first 82 . . . MANU GINOBILI looks oh-so-close to being done. His minutes will decline . . . MARCO BELINELLI adds quality depth behind Green. He'll take many of the minutes that used to go to Ginobili and Gary Neal, who left for Milwaukee . . . CORY JOSEPH enters the season as the favorite to back up Parker, but it's a fluid situation . . . NANDO DE COLO fell out of the rotation last season, but has enough talent that he should bounce back . . . PATTY MILLS is more of a cheerleader than a useful bench piece. FORWARDS: TIM DUNCAN just keeps going. The 2012-13 regular season was his best in years. The Spurs will keep his minutes in check, but he likely has another great season in him . . . KAWHI LEONARD is one of the league's elite role players, and he seems to keep getting better. He can shoot, score off the dribble and defend . . . JEFF AYRES is a skilled big man who will back up Duncan and can play alongside him for stretches. Like all of their frontcourt players besides Duncan, the player formerly known as Jeff Pendergraph, will see his playing time will fluctuate greatly depending on matchups. CENTERS: TIAGO SPLITTER continues to improve rapidly, and he'll now take the bulk of the minutes alongside Duncan. But as we saw in last year's Finals, head coach Gregg Popovich will keep him on the bench if the matchup isn't right . . . BORIS DIAW's versatility gives Pop options off the bench . . . MATT BONNER is pretty much just around to participate in the Three-Point Shootout at this point in his career. | | NEW ORLEANS: GUARDS: JRUE HOLIDAY is perfect for head coach Monty Williams. He defends and can create in the half-court set . . . ERIC GORDON didn't want New Orleans to match his deal two offseasons ago, and he spent last year letting everyone know it. If healthy and motivated (two big 'ifs') he's a 20-point scorer . . . TYREKE EVANS will get some starts at the three and come off the bench at times. Either way, he is the kind of aggressive (if sometimes out-of- control) offensive threat this lineup needs . . . Even after an injury-filled season, ANTHONY MORROW's shooting could earn him a rotation spot . . . AUSTIN RIVERS was overmatched last season, to the point where he didn't seem to belong in the NBA. It's tough to see the win-now Pels relying on him often. FORWARDS: ANTHONY DAVIS was overwhelmed by Williams' complex defensive schemes, and opponents consistently took him out of plays with screen-and-rolls at him. Williams will surely use some of his new talent to allow Davis to roam more on defense . . . RYAN ANDERSON's defensive shortcomings could lead to a drop in playing time, but his shooting and the spacing it creates is too valuable to this offense . . . AL-FAROUQ AMINU will likely split time with Tyreke Evans at the three. He's more valuable defensively, and is starting to show some signs of improvement on offense . . . DARIUS MILLER has a shot to break into the rotation if his defense improves . . . LANCE THOMAS is a long athlete who is capable of playing some good defensive minutes . . . ARINZE ONUAKU most likely won't see the floor for more than a minute at a time. CENTERS: JASON SMITH might be their most complete defensive big man, and that should be enough to earn him solid minutes . . . GREG STIEMSMA is more off a warm body, but he at least gives them another rim-protecting option . . . JEFF WITHEY will spend most of the season on the bench learning Williams' complex schemes. |

*Spurs-Pelicans Preview* ========================
By NICOLINO DIBENEDETTO STATS Writer
San Antonio (29-8) at New Orleans (15-21), 8:00 p.m. EDT
Injuries aren't fazing the San Antonio Spurs.
A matchup with the struggling New Orleans Pelicans doesn't figure to, either.
The Spurs will likely need to show off their impressive scoring depth Monday night when they look to continue their dominance of the Pelicans.
San Antonio (29-8) owns the best record in the Western Conference, and is one-half game behind Indiana for the league's best mark.
The Spurs have won seven of eight games while averaging 110.5 points. The stretch, which includes a four-game winning streak, is made even more impressive as injuries continue to mount.
Manu Ginobili has missed two games with tightness in his left hamstring, while Tiago Splitter's sprained right shoulder has already kept him out for three and he's not expected back for at least another two weeks.
While it's unclear if Ginobili will be back, Danny Green has been ruled out for at least Monday due to a sprained finger.
San Antonio didn't seem to miss any of them Sunday, coasting to a 104-86 win over Minnesota after losing Green early in the second quarter. The bench picked up the slack, as six players combined for 51 points and 22 of the Spurs' 46 rebounds.
San Antonio's reserves average an NBA-leading 46.0 points.
"You've got to stay ready, especially around here," forward Tim Duncan said of overcoming the injuries. "That's what we preach, we're getting everybody ready and you'll get your opportunity whether it comes at the beginning or in the middle or in the end whenever it may be. When your time comes, you need to be ready to go because you're going to earn your minutes."
Kawhi Leonard has maintained that philosophy, averaging 15.3 points on 69.0 percent from the field - 4 of 7 from beyond the arc - over the past three games. The forward hit 8 of 11 field goals Saturday, scoring 13 of his team-high 17 points in the second half.
At 11.9 points per game, he is one of five Spurs to average double digits.
Leonard had seven points and 11 rebounds against New Orleans on Nov. 25, while the bench contributed 65 points, 21 boards and six assists in a 112-93 win.
Marco Belinelli had 14 points in that meeting, and he's averaging 17.2 on 62.3 percent shooting - 12 of 20 from long range - over the past five games.
San Antonio has won 15 of the past 18 meetings with the Pelicans (15-21). However, the Spurs' only defeat in the last nine matchups was a 95-88 loss in the most recent one in New Orleans on Jan. 7, 2013.
The Pelicans are trying to avoid their first six-game slide since dropping 11 straight Dec. 5-22, 2012.
Their skid reached five games with Saturday's 110-107 loss at Dallas, a day after falling 107-90 in the opener of the home-and-home set.
Anthony Davis can't be blamed for the Pelicans' struggles, averaging 23.0 points, 11.5 rebounds and 2.5 blocks over the past four games. The forward had 28 points and 14 boards Saturday.
Davis may be in for a much stiffer test since he's averaging 15.0 points and 8.0 rebounds in five career meetings with the Spurs. That includes 10 and six, respectively, while adding four blocks in the most recent matchup.
