Woj called the Billy Donovan hire about a month before the hire while Brooks was still the coach. All these dudes get the scraps Woj leaves behind or they just repost...

Manu has already gone under the knife in the morning and these fools are still talking about a "bruise" in the afternoon..they got an inkling when Parker sounded serious about it post game, but like an out of loop and shitty scribes they are, they didn't bother to follow the lead..

professional writers.

:rollin

LMA playing between 6-7 less minutes and these "proffesional writers" complaining why he isn't grabbing more rebounds. A 1.8 difference compared to last season (8.4 vs 10.2). But yeah, proffesional writers, still thinking Manu's only got a thigh bruise when it was clearly a Sagat move to the nuts.

Pop and the Spurs control the local media/beat writers. If you don't play along, your access goes from limited to none. If you don't believe it, ask yourself this question, how many times have you heard Pop interviewed by Bill Schoening? Likewise with Sean and Bill Land or Andrew Monaco? The EN writers get whatever the national writers or other team's beat writers get.

Sure it does. How can you report on the team, if the team's not giving you anything? Also, if you report something and the team didn't want it reported yet, you could face repercussions (future access). Not saying the locals could be better or up to par with Woj, but he doesn't have the unspoken restrictions the local media has on them.

The fucking disrespect. He carried us in this game and the whole season and the SA media doesn't have one fucking question for his final podium game.

Does any team have worse beat writers than the Spurs? That pedophile looking creep Jeff McDonald, st-stu-studdering Mike Monroe, the pounding cock brigade, fake news Jabari Young, etc.

Thank god Woj exists, because these faggots didn't break one god damn story on the Kawhi situation this season.

They could have at least asked him if he thinks Manu is coming back one more season but nothing? Fucked up...

I know you faggots in the media will read this too, since all of you get your articles from here. The Kawhi's sister Instagram posts were discovered here on this site and the next day you faggots printed out your shit pieces.

He may be free lancing here and there. I saw him about two months ago at the airport and talked a bit and he said he had retired.

:lol nice

he sat down obviously indicating with body language and sigh that he didn't want to be there (after season-ending loss) - noone said anythign to him for 2 seconds and lamarcus took that as his cue to escape. good for him to get the chance to go grab some G and some ice.
BS.

LMA lives for All star appearances, All-NBA selections, and podium games. After all he did this season, for the media to disrespect him like that is disgusting.

Lol no.

[DPG21920]

Lol no.

You would have to question these guys “star” potential if they can’t beat Lebron’s worst team ever. CLE is only good because Bron is unreal but even with that they are a medicore team overall.

[exstatic]

Kawhi couldn't lead SA past 'Bron in his sophomore season, either, and he HAD all of the team pieces in place. No one was missing like they are for Boston.

[DPG21920]

This CLE team is not very good is the point. You shouldn’t have to be that talented to get by them. They aren’t great. They are good and Lebron is great but all year no matter how you look at it they are an average team.

[Clipper Nation]

The Cavs are garbage, but LeGOAT's mere presence can still cover a lot of flaws.

[Clipper Nation]

Danny Ainge will never be willing to give up any asset of value, ever, no matter what happens. He doesn't make trades unless he's fleecing the other team.

[daslicer]

That's fine if he's not willing to budge I wouldn't do the deal but you never know what type of pressure he will feel from the fans and local media if the Celtics can't beat the worst Lebron lead Cav's team in more than 10 years.

[daslicer]

Lol no.

You would be shocked but not even the greatest GMs always make the best moves especially under pressure when they are trying to win championships. I will never forget Jerry West making a series of bad moves during the '99 season in which he traded Van Exel to the nuggets for Tony Battie, and then getting fleeced by the Hornets by trading Eddie Jones and Elden Campbell for Glen Rice. Those moves pretty much cost the Lakers the title that year since they had owned the spurs prior to making those trades. Anyways my point is no GM is infallible and its only a matter of time before Ainge makes a bad move or two.

[Seventyniner]

True. There is a very high chance (at least 80% imo) that neither Brown nor Tatum is ever as good as Kawhi is now.

[K...]

They just laid off a bunch of express newspeeps, didn't check if it was sports but don't hold out hope for any improvement

[J_Paco]

True. There is a very high chance (at least 80% imo) that neither Brown nor Tatum is ever as good as Kawhi is now.

Exactly, I really, really love both their upside but there is no guarantee that either will be as good 2016 - 2017 Kawhi Leonard. Especially with the playoff run he was having before his ankle injury.

I think if Leonard is 100% healthy, but doesn't want to stay a package that includes both Tatum - Brown, would be a win - win for both franchises (with or without another lottery pick thrown in).

There is no guarantee Leonard will ever be as good as his 2016-17 self either, unfortunately.

McDonald can only do so many puff pieces on the Spurs Coyote.
