Interview with Ettore Messina

[SAGirl]

I don't take credit for this at all. Just found it. I thought there are some interesting tidbits there about the upcoming season. Very excited about Timmy and Lamarcus already training together as well as Manu Ginobili and Kyle Anderson!!!
He talks about a lot of other tidbits about our spurs.
I am sooo psyched for this upcoming season!
Anyways, a fan translated the interview here it is:

OP is a lesbian.

[K...]

OP is a lesbian.

Rob are you gonna say anything new and useful this upcoming season? I took you off the ignore cause your funny but you've lost your mojo.

[K...]

Unlike my friend rob, etore seems classy. No real news other then Duncan is back at the gym and that lma is a pf.

[RD2191]

You should probably put me on ignore again.

[dabom]

Lmao!

[TheGreatYacht]

daqueer didn't use an emoticon. Still a faggot though

[K...]

You should probably put me on ignore again.

I'm just curious why you attack random people. I mean this thread wasn't about you or op. It was about etore. Your just a weird guy rob

[Spurtacular]

OP is a lesbian.

She's never said so (nor has she made it an issue); but I support her right of sexuality either way. She is a high quality poster. You are a worthless troll.

[Spurtacular]

I'm not all that invested in Messina cos he'll likely find a head coaching position that suits him long before Pop retires. If he's that good and we're that lucky, he'll find his way back to us though.

Shut up, faggot.

[Spurtacular]

Shut up, faggot.

Bite me, bitch. Don't even bring that weak sauce to my doorstep.

[SAGirl]

Wow this derailed so quickly, just wow... I am sure some fans do appreciate to read updates about the team or coaches. It did sound like Messina was guarded when asked about his future plans or prospects. He is for sure eyeing a head coaching job in the NBA and is biding his time. A coach of his caliber however, if he helps out Pop in this transition will be invaluable. He did lament loosing Marco (italian after all, and his scoring will be missed.) It might even be inferred that Messina was pushing for another shooter (for you Spurtacular: Jimmer!!! Hello!!!).

Who is that ugly fat girl that use to post here? I remeber laughing my ass off when I saw her photo..She wore glasses and the dirtiest orange looking shirt ever.

I'm guessing that's the op.

[Spur|n|Austin]

Faggot you spend 24/7 on this forum licking Kawhi's dick and you want to talk down to someone? Check yourself homo, let's see your pic.

[apalisoc_9]

K is just one of the lamest internet personalities srs..I never read his stuff :lol

[Spur|n|Austin]

You obviously read that - answer me bitch; why does a low rent like you think they can judge someone based on their pic you canook?

also wishing injury on players of a team you supposedly root for? You're a rare breed of anus.

[FuzzyLumpkins]

Q: Technically, how do you expect to insert Aldridge and David West?
A: "Aldridge will play as a power forward. Pop will ask him to play in our system, but at the same time we have an enormous need for his ability to execute in the low post, from the pick n'pop or pick n'roll. Technically, I'm not worried: Tony Parker will be the first to benefit from the spacing that LaMarcus will create. We have to work on defensive mechanisms because we lack an intimidating player, but we have two very well matched long versatile players. West instead is a player of great personality: I guess it can be interesting to see him paired with Diaw, alternating in the high post and low post. Their versatility and ability to pass the ball can be a problem for opposing defenses".

Interesting.

[hater]

He sucks. Go back to Europe.

[dweaver99027]

Yeah, he'll probably be a head coach again in the next couple of years, NBA or not. His experience and tactical mind will benefit the Spurs in the meantime, so always good to have him onboard.

[apalisoc_9]

I don't know how Aldridge and Leonard aren't intimidating players...Is he referring to the bigs?

I don't understand what intimidating player means in reference to "Defensive mechanisms"

[kobyz]

K is just one of the lamest internet personalities srs..I never read his stuff :lol

How are you doing apa? Still wishing for pity sex from your aunt cause you can't get any from girls your age?

Nice read. :toastThanks OP.

Shut your faggot ass up.

[Spurtacular]

Step.

[spursfaninla]

My interpretation of "lack of intimidating player" was rim protector. Assuming that is what he means, he is right, especially when Duncan is out.

Got it.

Thanks.

:lol Rob and krew derailing another thread
:lol cancer to the NBA forum

[UNT Eagles 2016]

I hate lesbians, but the first reply was uncalled for given RD doesn't even know her

iirc, there was a Mavfan girl that use to post downstairs that was pretty cute, though

[turkish spurs fan]

we should fire messina and becky hammon

Maybe when you stop being the gateway for the ISIS invasion of Europe.

Great read! Thanks for posting this! Just the kind of thing you want to hear as a fan, LMA and Tim working together on August 17! Manu and KA is also great news! :bobo

[TheDoctor]

Ettore dropping thruth nukes. Softy and Baynes just loved to be posterized. They played to be dunked on like christians waiting for the holy spirit. With arms wide open. That was what Ettore was talking about when he said we lacked that intimidating factor.

[Kawhi 5-0]

One thing I love about Ettore is his fashion sense. Always has a sharp suit on. Also, seems like a coaching bad-ass. Nice to have him and Becky and the whole crew around Pop to bring out the best in our players.

[UNT Eagles 2016]

Who hates lesbians???
Any man with a brain and a knack for basic statistics, tbh

More gay guys = less men to compete with the rest of us = more available women

More lesbos = less available women for the rest of us = more competition


You do the math

[UNT Eagles 2016]

your balls will drop someday
your balls will drop when you insist on jacking off to lesbian porn videos instead of having sex with real, heterosexual women

[UNT Eagles 2016]

can't it be both?
If that's your thing. It's a free country, and gay marriage is legal. I'm glad of that, as a libertarian, even though I'm pretty homophobic. And I support the military.
