The Spurs did make one major addition this season in the form of the 7-foot Brazilian Tiago Splitter, who signed a three-year, $10.5 million deal with San Antonio this summer. Splitter should provide Tim Duncan some much needed relief, as Antonio McDyess and DeJuan Blair wouldn't be able to shoulder the full load without Duncan.
If George Hill, Blair and Splitter end up being a much needed infusion of youth into San Antonio, those three and the Parker-Duncan-Ginobili trio give the Spurs a heck of a core of six players that could truly compete for a championship. But if the injury bug strikes the Spurs, the Duncan-Parker-Ginobili trio, with Parker's contract expiring after next season, could end up having its last go-around this year.
