Atlanta is a very small team and is probably the reason he didn't play.
But facts are facts: he's the 5th big on this team, even though , in my opinion, he should the the 3rd big.

Dyess > Splitter is not a given in my mind. I think with more consistent minutes over the course of the season, Splitter would be clearly > Dyess by now. However, I can't argue that over the course of the season the stready vet = more games won. That could in turn result in home court which could be the difference for our veteran-led team. Therefore there is no clear answer but against ATL tonight I think Splitter easily matches Dice man's productivity with equal minutes.

Bonner and RJ were horrid but thank goodness we won despite them. Tiago should play a lot though to let Duncan/Dice rest. Hard to argue that Splitter could not have given more than RJ and Bonner combined. 5 points in 30 minutes from RJ is ridiculous, Bowen was a better scorer than he has been lately!

Tiago is not the answer (not yet). He needs to work with trainers to correct his fundamentals. It's too bad he missed training camp.

This is the part that gets me. It seems pretty obvious that Splitter has outplayed Blair and that Splitter/Bonner is a much better combo than Blair/Bonner. (I gave up on the notion of a reduced role for Bonner a long time ago, it's worked wonders for my peace of mind)
The realistic ceiling for Splitter's role in this year's playoffs is as Tim's backup. I'm still holding out hope that he replaces Blair in that role.
What's with this talk of Atlanta being small?

Atlanta may have some tall guys on the roster, but Collins went out early with an injury and Armstrong hardly played. There were significant stretches of the game where Marvin Williams was the PF.
Just as with the subject of this thread, having 2 7-footers on the roster doesn't mean the team plays big.

Not a prolific offensive player … Despite his height and quickness, Splitter is not much of a shot blocker … Tends to get frustrated when played physically in the low post … This has led some to question his mental toughness … Throughout his career he has had health trouble so there’s concerns that he could be an injury prone player in the NBA’s 82 game schedule … Must improve on his upper body strength. How big he can actually get is questionable … This impacts him offensively when he fails to finish after contact occurs … Despite being one of the most talented players on the court, tends to defer to teammates and lacks aggressiveness … Surprisingly shows mediocre consistency shooting from mid-range … Not a great free throw shooter … Still prone to fundamental lapses, doesn’t always secure rebounds which enable easy steals for opposing teams … Tends to get out-muscled for rebounding position by stronger opposing forwards …

Him not playing is tied to him missing training camp. I have no idea where you are trying to go with this. Tiago Splitter missed training camp. He needs to work with NBA trainers, Spurs trainers to be precise. I am sure he's done some work, but you can tell when he's out there than he's still trying to figure out where he's supposed to be. I think the guy is amazing, but I don't see any reason to ignore the facts.

This.
Beat me to it. I bet McDyess/Duncan play a lot less tomorrow night.
Everytime Splitter doesn't play on the 1st night of a b2b the "he's being saved for tomorrow" line gets rolled out. It's online, in the paper, on pre and postgame shows, but as far as I can tell it holds no weight in Tiago's case. A dnp on one night has no special motivation for Splitter - it is what it is.
No matter how mediocre or poor Bonner plays he still gets the minutes, and is the 1st big off of the bench.
The win was nice, but this situation makes my head explode.

Splitter isn't as good.
Your being moronic with your persistance and sublime takes vs. Spitter; despite the obvious signs that he would be at least a top ten NBA starter if allowed to play more and potentially a top 5 center.
Only true "lock" centers getting time in the NBA with potential better than Splitter in the West are a vastly improving Bynum and the vastly under-rated Nene. Chandler blocks less than 1.5 shots a game and is vastly over-rated and in the East only Howard and Bogut are day in and out - true superstars and stars respectively at center.
If only Pop would get over his Ginger and Grizzly Bear fetishes the Spurs would be fine - Manu-_Forever wake up!

Perhaps it's by saying stupid shit like "He looks lost out there". Are you also one of the people that says he shouldn't be out there because the other team might run Hack a Shaq on him? There's really nothing to rip up since you have yet to back up the whole "work on fundamentals" thing. The only fundamental the team has worked on with him is his free throw shooting and that's been a disaster so far.

Splitter isn't as good.
If you're a fan of this team, wouldn't you want to find out? Bonner's been with this team for 3-4 years now. He already knows the system and plays. Why wouldn't you want another option to go if any of the bigs get in foul trouble.
Do you see the teams looming ahead in the playoffs? Memphis (Randolph/Gasol), OKC (Perkins/Ibaka), DEN (Nene, KMart), LAL (Gasol/Bynum/Odom), BOS (KG, Shaq). When Randolph is killing us on the boards and abusing Bonner in the post, is that when Pop and his apologists will be looking for Splitter to help stop the bleeding?
He should have been integrated. There's no excuse - he's not been injured that long and he's played professionally for years (not a true rookie).
LOL at Bonner with 2pts/6reb (1-8) in almost 21 mins while Splitter collects a DNP-CD. Then we wonder why they got in a hole after Bonner checks in.
And Blair's not much better either. But at least his problems are because of physical limitations. He's not hesitating with his shot. Quite the opposite - I swear he never passes the ball out once he gets it. Still the jury is out on him whether he can stand the pressure of the playoffs. With Bonner, we know what's going to happen.
For God's sake, Pop, no Bonner/Blair in the playoffs.

Not disagreeing with your overall premise but Tiago does look a bit lost when hes not running a pick and roll. The Spurs run back screens and set up walls for kickouts and he is still getting the nuances of that.
That being said, he has clearly improved dramatically in that regard since hes gotten more time.

4th game vs Portland, spurs down by 7 at half, lose by 8
Anybody with eyes and a brain could see that this would be the toughest stretch in the Spurs season. FOR MONTHS!!!! Someone want to blame these losses on Splitter? Look at these simple f....king numbers. The Spurs did not execute properly in the 4th quarter of any of these games. Splitter was not in the games in the 4th. Tiago was let down by the likes of Manu, Tony, Blair, and yes, Matt Bonner. They couldn't finish.

The Turd Towers combined for a scintillating 9pts and 10rbs against the Blazers the following night with Coach B going 0-2 from the 3pt line.
First, I don't know what you're talking about with the alktalk stuff, the last time you said that he commented on your post.
Second, how is this spin? I'm not blaming him. I'm pointing out a simple fact. The poster was wrong, he said Splitter didn't play in any of the 4th quarters when he started. I corrected him. With a simple fact, including the time he entered the game and the score at that time. How is that spin?

Splitter starts 4 games. Spurs go 0-4. Dude hasn't proven anything this year except that a fifth of our losses come with him in the starting lineup. Props to Pop.
nice try awktalk.

I'm sure there's other NBA teams that could use a serviceable 7-footer who plays pretty good D.
He absolutely should demand a trade. He won't get a fair shake as long as he's being coached by Pop.

Yup, i would be happy for him too because he seems like a hard working guy and a good teammate.
I wonder what he did though to make Pop have such a personal vendetta towards him.
Either way, Tiago comes out looking like the victim and Pop looks like the stubborn and childish dipshit who lets personal issues get in the way of his team's championship aspirations.

Pop's stubbornness keeps on giving; any free agent considering coming here will have to be willing to potentially blow off a year of his career since Pop might not even play him substantial minutes.

You can tell Sean and company really want Tiago to get more minutes, ALWAYS praising him.

Tiago got murdered on defense against Al Jefferson. Couldn't stop a nose bleed. Very pleased with his help defense/rebounding though.
