Lets be real here for a second, the team is deficient in talent. I know chinnok amd the others like to think the system is bigger than the players but the fact of the matter is that no hipster opinion is going to change the and fix the severe limitation this team has.

Pop built this team with the idea that Kawhi is gonna carry these role players to glory. But Kawhi is not playing so everyone is getting exposed.

But make no mistake, Ive watched every game this year and this team never lacked effort. They worked hard and dont deserve to be shit on.

Well yes, the OP is actually right. There are very few NBA starter-level players on this team, and Kawhi was the real league MVP of last season. Given those facts, this season was about par for the course.

Outside of Aldridge there is nobody who can get an easy bucket when the team's offense is clogged. Look at how the Warriors now double teaming Aldridge left and right and nobody on the Spurs can make them pay for doing it.

If there was one minor complaint, its the coaching stuff inability to get Gay more involved.

With severe limitations offensively, they really had very limited option..

If this wasn't a forest fire of a season, we would've had a solid chance of contending. The west is weaker than it has been in years, and the east is even worse. The 2016-17 Spurs would win the championship against this season's competition.

What a fucking shame.

I reckon an Aldridge, Gay, Leonard frontline would be as formidable as any in the league. Desperately need a guard that can create a bit as well though. Anderson & Murray are good defensive players completely limited by their shot.

Not even that I have seen so many Spurs players left open tonight that can't hit open shots. The Spurs have nobody who can consistently take someone off the dribble and score along with creating their own shots. Parker and Manu used to this all the time but can only now do it in small spurts. Gay can also do it in spurts.

I expect Murray will get up 300,000 shots this summer and come back with an improved mid-range game.

If he can start hitting that shot, and slowly work his way out, he becomes deadly given his ability to play closer to the rim.

Now it's time to stop relying on role players, recipe for failure..

Fully agree, his percentage from 16ft - 3point line improved dramatically this season, but isn't really noticed because he doesn't take a whole lot & can't shoot 3's. I think eventually he becomes a pretty decent offensive player.

It boiled down to PATFO reading too much into a WCF and 23 points halftime lead over sleepwalking Warriors last season.

Fact is, that team was never that good to be run back as they were.

KawhiMVP carried this team on his back. I hope he gets healthy tbh. The team missed him. The team does need to move on from some players but they played without Kawhi all year and PATFO didn’t really made adjustments or improvements all season. Kudos to Aldridge.

Yer even with our current limitations this team with Kawhi would win the championship. Lets face it 2017 playoff Kawhi on 5-6 teams wins you the chip tbh. And how lovely it would have been to send these clowns out in the first round. It would have surpassed 3-1 as the all time steaming dog sh#t memory of the collective NBA folklores. But the boys have given it all in a week that has got unforeseeably harder. Full credit tooem.

missed open shots, 46% FG, 15th in the league, isn't the system's problem, it's players who can't shoot

3Gs are the NBA game, now. Spurs' season 3G% is 35%, 26th in the league.

Spurs are even lower in playoff stats.

I expect the rumor Will be he worked on his ball handling and jump shot, both improved during the summer, but when next season starts he will be the same player.

After many years of bball, HS, college, pro, he still can't shoot, and is a weak playmaker, passer, mover off-the-ball.

One summer won't produce significant improvement that he and the Spurs need.

Parker was the same way. Couldn't shoot to save his life. Then developed a floater game and mid range game. With lots of work. I'm not gonna give up on his potential just yet. He's still like what, 21?

I'm not a big believer in becoming an great shooter if you have no feel for shooting whatsoever. Shooting always came naturally to me when I was a kid. I just had a good feel for it.

I'm not saying you can't become a very good shooter through hard work as there are players that have done it, but it's much, much harder if you don't have a feel for it at all. I'm not sure Murray does. You never know though, he may become competent at it through sheer hard work.

I hope you are more correct than I am, but I didn't see enough development through the course of this year to think a few months of offseason will make it show up. He would shoot a conventional jumper now and then (and it usually looked decent), but most of the time he resorted to the one handed "almost a jump shot" floater. His lack of ball handling skills (bringing the ball up and probing the defense) was hidden by the quick pass once across half court and the point guard by committee.

Sure are, key problem is those guys getting the shots are not shooters.. Kyle Anderson is not a shooter! we all know that, Danny Green couldnt dribble to save his life or shoot with those AARP HIPS he has, Murray well lets not go there bcuz that poor sol doesnt have anything that can be called a shot. 2 of your 5 starters for most of the season cannot shoot... then through in bench players with same issue, and its a recipe for disaster...:ihit:ihit:ihit:ihit
