Who do you see playing 30 plus mpg this year with the roster we have. I'd say Smart and Sully are still that.  So is IT.  I expect Smart to play major minutes and lead this team from the get go this season.  He's already doing it in summer league and I expect more of the same once the preseason starts.   Sully to me is in better shape and should still get a majority of minutes.  IT is going to get 30 mpg.  That leaves a lot of other guys fighting for minutes.

30+ plus minutes = Smart, Bradley and Lee.

25+ minutes = Thomas, Crowder, Amir

Swap Sully with Lee and I'd agree with you. Not sure how Zeller and KO are getting minutes now.

Lee is still a bit better than Sully. I don't see Sully beating him out for playing time.

And that is an in-shape Sully. An out-of-shape Sully can't touch David Lee. Either way, things not looking good for Sully.

Zeller and KO are our two 7 footers who both played well last year.   They might have to split time.  I dont see the rookies getting much time.  Young and Rozier will probably split Pressey's minutes.

We have a lot of depth which really helped us last year during the regular season and we have even more now.

I just have to comment on "split Pressey's minutes?" That is actually hilarious.  So they will split 2 and get one each?

Thanks for the chuckle.

pressey played 12 mpg last year and that is weighted because when he would play he would play around 20+ minutes.  He just didnt play every game.

I don't see the rookies playing that much.  Or every game.  So they can get a 20 minute spurt every so often that's what I mean.

Did anyone average 30 mpg for us last year?

IT, Smart and AB will get the most minutes.

Sully will eat the most donuts.

Bradley is the only one who played a full season here and played 30+mpg.

Rondo and Green did before getting traded. Smart did after the All-Star break.

Has a team ever ended up with nobody on the roster averaging 30 minutes or more?

Let's make that happen.

disagree. Lee is not suddenly going to get all the mins

25 min = Smart, IT
20 min = Sully, KO, Amir, AB, Crowder
10-15 min = Lee, Zeller, Jerebko, turner
5 min = Young, Rozier

Lee is probably the 2nd most talented offensive player on the roster, doe.

I'm pretty sure the Spurs either consistently do it or come close to no one averaging over 30 minutes. Not a bad team to emulate.
