That is what I interpreted it as. Everyone in here assumes that if you put two players next to each other, it means equivalent, which simply isn't true.

LOL @ all those morans who wanted Boozer back.
Does anyone think that Boozer could have led us to that win? Jefferson was a beast inside and drew so many fouls. Boozer would have scored maybe 12 points off fadeaway jumpers and would have picked up a Tech after being blocked 10 times by Ibaka and having finally dunked on him once.
At least Jefferson forces players to shoot the ball up higher. I think he'll only get better with more experience and time in this system.
Hayward was fine. CJ and AK were very good. And Millsap was the man.
This team is talented. They just need to focus on getting the ball up the court quicker and pounding the ball inside for good shots. They desperately need to avoid walking the ball up the court (which Deron did wayyyyyyyyy too much in Denver) and take the first jumper possible.
Millsap has been our MVP thus far. Very impressive. However, I really hope he doesn't wear out. His main knock has always been durability. I hope that by January he isn't worn out.

Defense is all about effort and if Jefferson is willing to put forth that effort than yes, I think he can be Duncans equal defensively... Regardless of what you say...
Duncan's defense is more than effort.
A slight correction: Ginobili was not overlooked. Every GM and "expert" knew about him. They also knew he had a long contract to play in Europe and were not sure if he would ever play in the NBA. That's why he lasted until the end of the 2nd round. The Spurs gambled and it paid off big time.
