players are nice, but I want PJ back

[antimvp]

lets sign PJ...........please.

[tp2021]

New players are nice, but I want Bruce back.

[Chomag]

It would be nice. The only person I know that Pop actually listens to lol

[EricB]

For what? To sit around at practices again and do nothing?

[scottspurs]

PJ would be a great addition. He really knows his defense, but I don't think he will come back. He would no longer be the head assistent. I think he is going to stay away from coaching for awhile and give commentating a try.

[dmac]

I thought you were referring to Eddie Murphy's animated show on fox.

[mazerrackham]

He sounds too weird and opens his mouth too wide when he talks to be a commentator, he'd probably wear himself out, or he might have to re-structure his speaking stroke. LOL

[BlackBellamy]

P.J. can dunk from the three point line.

[Ditty]

p.j. was the brains of the spurs offense

i could see him coming back but he looks like he likes being a analyist

i dont know if he wants too, he's won 3 championships, and the reason why he was being a assistant coach was probably more to get hired as a head coach

[FuzzyLumpkins]

The offense definitely seems to bog down quite a bit more since hes moved on. Maybe I am imagining things but it seems the 3+ minute offensive droughts didn't occur when PJ was on the bench.

When did you start watching the Spurs, last season?

:lmao

The Spurs have gone through offensive droughts as long as I've watched them. I remember guys like Antoine Carr and Doc Rivers and Glenn Robinson being really good for ending a cold offensive streak, and there are certainly guys that go back way further than I do.

Our D did take a nose dive once PJ left

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Probably back in 1989. I realize that all teams go through offensive droughts. Maybe its had to do with Manu's injuries/loss of Brent but we didn't have game after game of periods of 5 minutes of not scoring a bucket that I remember until last season.

[mazerrackham]

We had game after game of offensive droughts in our championship 1999 season, surely you remember that. We've had it all through the Tim Duncan era.

Not really for the Tony/Manu era. 1999 was a different era when perimeter defense allowed you to maul people on the perimeter. Jackson and Elie were champs at that.

[timvp]

Facepalm.

PJ coached the defense.

lol well that puts things a bit in perspective. i was looking at the stats and the teams fg% went up from 14th to 7th last season anyway.

[Obstructed_View]

Facepalm.

PJ coached the defense.

It does seem that the team has completely stopped getting steals, and has consequently almost completely stopped generating any fast-break opportunities. I think Parker's ability to penetrate from a half-court set has kind of disguised the real impact it's had on the team.

Well, now we're narrowing it down to the tony/manu era, seems to me you were saying since 1989 since you started watching there were no droughts like last year but I guess you've conceded that. I still remember droughts every year even during the tony/manu era, but it wasn't as defined as since 1999.

[dbestpro]

What ever PJ did he seemed to make Pop a better coach.
