Don't see how the Spurs who almost tilted against a bunch of young perimeter athletes in GSW will be able to handle Lebron.
Look for MIA to try and get their shooters going next, and if it happens, SAS is in for a long series as they don't have the speed (their core) to make the rotations. I want to see how Pop can mix and match his role players (young and athletic, but dumb) and his core (old, slow but smart) to get what he needs out of every unit.
That being said I can see most games coming down to the wire with the team having the best crunch time lineup (least liabilities, on both ends of the floor), taking the games.
Not to be combative, but that is kind of a fools argument. Golden State is a "fun and gun" team. They jack up shots with a nose hair of space. Miami's discipline and "eastern conference mentality" actually play very well into San Antonio's favor. I think Miami's athleticism obviously favors them, but Miami is very much a half court team in the playoffs. Crazy athleticism is nullified in half court games. Don't get me wrong, these games will be more open than the Bulls or Pacers series, but playoff basketball is a different animal. San Antonio isn't going to let Miami beat them in an open court game. They didn't let Golden State do that either and that's all they wanted to do.
San Antonio will be very protective of fast break opportunities for Miami (Spurs will not hit offensive glass like Indiana did) and they'll be exceptionally selective in how they push. San Antonio will secondary break all day long but they arent going to force tempo at all.
