We're forgetting someone

[Halberto]

Forget Tiago, getting him minutes won't win the championship. The key to this team is RJ. When they were rolling he was producing. If you don't believe me then look at his game log and tell me it's not a reflection of the team this season. As soon as his aggressiveness began to dwindle so did the dominance of this team. Quit bitching about Pop's stubborn ways for not putting in a rookie, foul machine that has a streak of 5 games where he was somewhat relevant.

$10 million my ass. He needs to feel the heat.

Yeah, Dick is just floundering around with no purpose at all. Missing wide open dunks and shit.

I heard a rumor that you were into watching weird Japanese cartoon porn or something. What's up with that?

[5in10]

Im tired of seeing him start to drive, only to avoid contact at the last second and kick the ball back out. I would rather see him take the shot, make or miss, or at least draw the foul. Its getting pathetic.

[temujin]

Jefferson is a loser.
Last summer, he just got over himself being a loser.

Can anyone imagine the Spurs winning it all with this guy playing 35'?
Seriously?

[SenorSpur]

RJ an Bonner, being non-performing role players on this team, is a big problem. Those are two key spots where there just has to be consistent contribution.

I don't know how they address this over the offseason, but the Spurs cannot continue to keep fielding a roster that includes these 2 under-performing players.

clown had all season to get his shit going

no excuses man

This is the truth. Spurs are pinning their hopes on players at key positions that have less than a 50% chance of both being "on" in the same game.
Much less in a series. Good shooting from the rest can bail them out for a game here and there but isn't sustainable over a 7 game series against an elite NBA team. Especially when we don't have the defense that we've had in the past.

This has been the issue from day 1. For this group of Spurs, its offense or bust. Nothing is gonna change, RJ and Bonner will have to step up in the playoffs, along with Hill and Neal.

the missed dunk by R.J was the reason we lost...

Two seasons now actually to get it going :depressed:depressed

[20beastie45]

you know...I backed RJ from the beginning of the season...but recently he has been a spectator out on the floor....

UNACCEPTABLE!

[Chomag]

Spurs have so much dead weight in the rotation right now that the Big 3 are going to have to play all-out and flawless in almost every minute of every game the playoffs just to have a chance, which is very hard to do in a 7 game series.

To the OP, I was forgetting about RJ becuase I was trying to forget about him. :lol

[Ditty]

Rj had a good night last night, 14 points going 5-11 fg for 4-8 3pt are good? defensively he did a good on Pierce. He tried to get to the rim and almost through down the monster dunk he did his job yesterday as an 4TH OPTION.

and on Ray Allen.

If only the Spurs had defended the two-man game better at the PG and C positions.

[Slippy]

RJ played well last night.

It's as clear as day where the problem is. Solid D was spot on.

[Russ]

Ginobili, RJ, and Neal are all slumping.

If they all get hot again, at once, the Spurs can contend.:flag:

[Rummpd]

RJ minutes can be replaced by Neal, Owens, Manu at times and the less the better or RJ - the missed dunk vs. Boston just about nailed how he has played recently much of the time.

Splitter's size cannot be replaced by anyone on the Spurs and he is at worst the third best big on the Spurs so LOL about forgetting RJ.

He tried to get to the rim and almost through down the monster dunk he did his job yesterday as an 4TH OPTION.One game doesn't mean shit. His disappearing act has been progressive all season

RJ's scoring by month this season:

October 17.0
November 14.7
December 12.0
January 9.6
February 9.4
March 8.7

4th option has nothing to do with it. He's regressed back to what he was last year.

[objective]

3 of those points for RJ were worthless garbage points when the game was over.

He is average at best defensively, but has soft, careless lapses where he gets scored on easily that makes him worse than he appears.
