Preseason Game Thread #3: San Antonio Spurs @ Miami Heat

The Spurs have a game today in Miami and there's some good news and bad news.  I'm going to get the bad news out of the way first:  Tim Duncan and His Manuness aren't even at the game, and won't play. Don't worry, though... Pop is just being cautious, and wants them to stay in SA to work on their conditioning - it's preseason, after all. The good news? Miami is likely without their two best players, so maybe it's a wash. Preview after the jump.

Matchups

Tony Parker

 

PG


Mario Chalmers
Tony played in the last game, and we can expect him to be back again tonight, in full dominating form. Chalmers is no spring chicken, but he's also not anywhere close to being on Tony's level. We'll probably see a lot of Chris Quinn and George Hill battles tonight as well, with George winning that matchup pretty easily. Isn't depth a wonderful thing?
Advantage: Spurs
1337 Player
 
Good Player
 

Keith Bogans

 

SG


Dorell Wright
Keith started the last game against Olympiacos, and one would assume Pop will repeat that today. He's very solid on defense, and we'll already have enough offense in the game with Tony, RJ, and Bonner/Ian. However, his defense may not be as neccessary, since Dwyane Wade is sitting this one out(I would assume this has something to do with Manu not being at the game as well). Dorell Wright is just a guess - they might also start Q-Rich in Wade's absence.
Advantage: Tied
Big Head
 
Err... who?
 

Richard Jefferson

 

SF


Michael Beasley
RJ's had some trouble getting involved in the offense the first two games. With Manu out, Pop may have Tony force feed him or call more plays for him. Beasley is still an awesome player, despite the substance use. He's very tall for a SF, and there's no way RJ can post him up. And hey, at least we're not putting Finley up against him.
Advantage: Heat
Princess Peanut
 
Rehabbed & Ready
 

Ian Mahinmi

 

PF


Udonis Haslem
Either Ian or DeJuan Blair should get the start tonight. I'm guessing it will be Ian, since he started our first preseason game. Hopefully we'll get to see Ian's good side tonight, as well as a lot of Blair rebounds/putbacks, since the Miami frontcourt is on the small side. The key difference here is that our guys are faster than theirs. If Ian and DeJuan are at their best, this is one matchup we have in our favor.
Advantage: Spurs
Jekyll... or Hyde?
 
Decent PF.
 

Matt Bonner

 

C


Joel Anthony
Matty and RJ are the only two players to start both preseason games so far. Joel Anthony might actually be worse than him. Keep in mind that the Heat will probably have Anthony guarding Timmeh, so Matt's likey to match up with Haslem. Our backups will destroy theirs, since Antonio McDyess and Theo Ratliff are likely to be coming in off the bench again. Who else has players like that on their bench?
Advantage: Spurs
New Hampshire's finest
 
Plumbing the Depths
 

George Hill

 

Bench


Jamaal Magloire
Magloire is the tallest player on Miami's roster, along with Jermaine O'Neal, who probably won't be playing tonight. That's not saying much, but "You can't teach height". George Hill will probably continue looking like he's good enough to be a starter on a lot of teams. In fact, I'm sure the Heat would love to have him. Let's just be glad he's ours.
Advantage: Spurs
OoeyPooey
 
No Emotion
 

Gregg Popovich

Intangibles: The Spurs are the smartest team in the league, and they're essentially playing against scrubs. Advantage: Spurs

Mojo: A team that made no significant roster moves in the summer against the team that made the best roster change. Advantage: Spurs

Winner: It's preseason.. who cares? But the Spurs would win this in the regular season, so let's just go with that.


Keys To The Game

  • Avoid a letdown - Just because this should be an easy win doesn't mean the Spurs should treat it as one.  But losing a preseason game isn't the end of the world.
  • Dominate the frontcourt - The biggest mismatches in this game will be in the frontcourt, and the Spurs need to take advantage by relentlessly feeding the ball to the bigs, and letting them bring down the hammer.
  • Bench Play - Miami has nobody that can match Hill or Blair off the bench, and our bench goes way deeper than just those two guys anyway.  Most of these guys are fighting for minutes and/or a spot in the rotation, so they would be wise to make good things happen out there for the Spurs.  Malik Hairston could be an X-factor again tonight.

Last Time They Met

The Spurs last played the Heat in Miami on January 5th, winning 91-84.  I wonder if there were any interesting things that happened in that game involving players who won't be on the court tonight...

Some Other Reading

Heat

Peninsula is Mightier - Miami's SBN blog, with a lot of good information.  Stop by and say hi, and let them know nicely which team is going to win.  :)
Hot Hot Hoops - This is the TrueHoop network blog for the Heat. The more of the TrueHoop Network I see, the more thankful I am for Tim Varner and Graydon Gordian.

Spurs

48 Minutes of Hell:  Speaking of Tim and Graydon, they're still doing their thing over at 48MoH. This is required reading for any Spurs fan... right after PtR, of course.
Project Spurs: This is a pretty slick fan blog, and they usually have good content about the Spurs.

Thanx for the good work Tim C. Is there a reason why Manu won’t be there? (crossing fingers).

by SaSleepless on Oct 11, 2009 5:13 AM CDT reply actions  

Staying home: Still watching the wear and tear on his veteran players, Popovich opted to leave Duncan and Ginobili in San Antonio. Ginobili played in the Spurs’ first two preseason games, against Houston and the Greek team Olympiacos Piraeus, at the AT&T Center. Duncan made his preseason debut Friday night against Olympiacos.

You almost gave me a heart attack, Tim. You should explain why…

I would be expecting Dejuan Blair have a big game tonight espically since Timmy wont be playing. I hope he grabs 20 rebounds this time. I am also intersted to see how Hairston will do.

In a game against scrubs, I would like pop to play Ian significant minutes. I mean if he won’t play him enough minutes in a preseason game against a depleted Miami team and with no Duncan, will he ever?

We don’t wanna see McDyess. We already know what he can bring, and pop can use the 1st half of the season to mesh the new players with our core.
I’d rather lose all preseason games and get a definitive answer about Ian and haislip, than win it with veterans.

Quick 1st half notes

Blair has 5 points and 2 assists in only 6:10. But only one rebound.
Finley is the leading scorer(10 points) for the Spurs, which isn’t a good sign.
We haven’t played Malik Hairston or Marcus Haislip yet. Marcus Williams played 2 minutes and sucked.
Ian can’t stop fouling long enough for his effectiveness on the offensive end to shine through.
Bogans had some good defensive plays, and might be able to see some minutes this season after all.

Im afraid that the spurs need role players surrounding their big 4, and Ian strikes me as a guy who needs lots of touches and playing time to get into rhytmn. I think he will be out of the rotation by mid season, with Blair, Theo, Diyess and even Bonner getting all the minutes. I hope im wrong

OK. I know it is completely off topic but. . .

I just realized that I DVR’d last night’s outdoor game between the Suns & Warriors on TNT. Please don’t tell me who won.

They just interviewed Amare’ and he make a bold statement that he and the Suns are focused and dedicated to playing defense this year. I’m sure that sent shivers (of laughter) throughout the NBA.

I’m actually heading out, otherwise I’d take care of it. I guess I’ll put it up later, then.

I can actually hack it, if you want to get the thing out quickly.

I can try to look at the boxscore and do something… but it’d be hackish. :)

Well, that’s pretty much what I did last time. Do we even need one for a preseason game?

Practice makes perfect? Seriously, maybe just a venue for people to share their post-game thoughts.

Wanna split it? I have a few minutes left, and I can e-mail you thoughts on some players, and you can do the rest.

Next up is the Clippers, so maybe it’ll be on TV. Griffin vs. Blair should be fun to watch.

I’m sure you’re right. I have rigorously avoided any knowledge of that mess – although some managed to seep in anyway. My wife knows if she wants some “alone time” all she has to do is turn on that show and watch me scatter. (No doubt adding to the appeal of that show for her.)

But any female that hyper-reproductive scares the shit out of any guy I know.

Ha, I was thinking last night, bella, that a Jon costume would be so much easier to put together. Just put on a giant plastic bag, set a nozzle on top of your head, and you’d be good to go.
