The Spurs may struggle to find a balanced starting lineup

The bigger question for the Spurs heading into next season may not be talent so much as how the talent is able to play alongside one another.

DeMar DeRozan is one of the league’s best shot creators, someone who can get a bucket on command or make the defense collapse consistently. He’s exactly the type of perimeter threat San Antonio needs to complement LaMarcus Aldridge’s interior scoring. That gives the Spurs two linchpins around which to build successful lineups. Unfortunately, their other pieces don’t seem to fit seamlessly with their stars, which will make it difficult to put together a starting unit that could excel on both ends of the floor.
