built around the Tony Parker, Manu Ginobili and Tim Duncan trio. They are able to do what they do only because those players are the foundation, and because that foundation is one consisting of players who have taken highly reasonable contracts.
A combined salary of less than $31MM. Think about that for a minute.
Wade, Bosh and James come in around $57MM.
Kind of makes a difference as to what you an do with your roster.

The crazy thing is what Duncan/Ginobili did at their ages and those prices. Both were among the best in the entire league at their positions on a per minute basis.
When you can lead the league in wins with Belinelli, Diaw, Leonard, Green as 2, 4, 5, 6 in MP (and no one averaged more than 30MPG on the season) you're doing something very right. Even if Duncan/Ginobili had slipped some due to age, how much of a beat do they miss? Just a remarkable team.
Very curious to see what Miami does this summer. I'm sure Riley has a plan, but their roster (and likely defensive philosophy) needs some retooling. James is a freak of nature, but he can't keep playing 38 MPG forever, right?
