You’ll be the team trying to scrap you way to wins against us, as we toy with you for three quarters. You’ll be the ones pinning your hopes on some mediocre bench player being the guy who can be the Luka Stopper. You’ll be the ones having your hopes crushed at his hands game, after game, after game, after game, after game.

Plus it’s not like Timmy is still playing and we’re wasting his twilight years like the Mavs did with Dirk the past few seasons. I’ve been fully prepared for a rebuild once Nephew bailed and not one of these loser vets currently on the Spurs are worthy of giving a good run for. Get some talent around Murray/White/Walker and see what you can build from there. Enough of the nostalgia from an era long gone. It’s worth a couple of losing seasons.

Of course tanking is the smart move overall, when the time has come for it. I’m just saying that it’s real easy to say “I can’t wait for my team to rebuild”, it’s another thing to be in the middle of the tank as you’re getting your ass beat by 20 every night, with no end in sight.

I'm a Raider fan, it's not like I'm not used to 15+ years of tanking.

The Mavs have been garbage at drafting for 20 years before they hit on Luka. The only strength the Spurs have left is drafting so why wouldn't you want them to get as high a draft pick as possible.

As a Raiders fan you also know that what is conceived as a 5 year rebuild oftentimes goes 15-20 years instead. That’s why you don’t tank until it’s absolutely necessary.

The Raiders were one of the worst managed organizations for most of this century.

Spurs are SUPPOSED to be well-run so I doubt they'd take 10+ years to get back to relevance. Plus, a top 5 pick in basketball is significantly more impactful than an NFL top 5 pick.

I don't live in SA so I don't really care if the Spurs are irrelevant for a few years if it means they've got extra bullets in the chamber in trying to land a superstar a la Luka. It might even do the locals some good to stop going to the games and exercising more tbh. :lol

Um, I think some asshole wearing #2 for the Clippers did it two years prior. Not sure if you got the memo, dumbass Mavs fan, but our "run" has been over.

If the coach/front-office stops dicking around they could expedite the rebuild with a good lottery pick this season (although this upcoming draft looks like it'll suck after Wiseman). They already had some solid, young prospects in the pipeline. Coach needs to start playing one (*cough*Walker IV*cough*) or two now, though.......

Yeah, don't get too carried away with that talk, LJ. What if the Spurs had laid off even a little last season. They would have ended the streak, and they would have missed out on a first round exit. But they wouldn't have had to move up too much higher to get P.J. Washington, or Rui, or Cam Johnson. If they had done that, would they be better or worse? And next year, with the rookie having a year under his belt... better or worse? Not only that, but if they had one of those guys, how much better could they possibly have spent their resources in the FA market?

That's not a full rebuild, but one year could make a hell of a difference. Pretty easily. The problem is, they have waited too long to get the most value from it. They could have held a lot of things the same, and made just a few strategic changes and be a MUCH better team for it. But to do it they would have to have sacrificed one first round exit.

I don’t think anyone wants to tank. They want the lottery if THIS is the team they have since they will be a lottery team anyways. But the idea is to move DeRozan for something that fits better, sharpen the rotations and keep being a playoff team that is competitive night in and night out while rebuilding.

Um, no disrespect to those three young men but the team would have needed more than a rookie tweener forward to become "instantly" competitive.

Now, if they could have tanked and lucked into another surprise low risk/high reward type (ala Nephew or Jimmy Butler) that far exceeds his ceiling then we are talking. I'm not sure that guy existed in this last draft that had a lot tweener forwards and undersized swingmen.

The Spurs needed a "3 & D" small forward with size and some hops. I'm not even sure K.J. completely fits the bill only being 6'6" and all.

DPG21920
11-19-2019, 12:57 AM
To me “expecting a one year rebuild” means people think SA gets a top 3 pick and then they are in the finals again.

But to me, a good rebuild means you don’t get Laker’d with 5 years of top 5 picks because you suck at drafting and development and have a toxic culture.

Can't even get salty at Op for just pointing out the truth, at this point the Mavs do have a better and more promising level of talent and look ready to compete for many years to come. Equipped with the same head coach that took the 2014 ring team to 7 games with pretty much NBA spare parts.

But as far as a rivalry goes, c'mon, these Spurs have no rivalry anymore, not with Dallas, not with anyone really...I take that back, the only rivalry or the only games that have any self-imposed rivalry, if you will, in my eyes, are against the Clippers or any Kawhi led team since he straight up decapitated the franchise.

Any rivalry of yesterday is dead today lol, where's Tim, where's Dirk? Do we have to pretend the Lakers are rivals still and continue to read that god awful "fisher dominating parker" garbage 50 years later on the other Spurs site. It's dead. Are OKC and Spurs still rivals? Or are they just two teams that were great but now are pretty shit, but play 4 times a year and everyone that meant anything to either side in the previous clashes is gone.

Just don't think it's worth getting all riled up when another team's fan comes in and kinda just tells the truth and we all know this team in it's current iteration is not really that good so our expectations should reflect that and not some glory days shit.

Let me get this straight... After having a talent as great as Dirk Nowitzki, the Mavs were only able to produce ONE championship. Yet now the OP is declaring that a 42 point game and a triple double in stats is the Mavs gateway to multiple championships and the end of the Spurs.

Let’s see how many championships resulted from OKC having a triple double machine on their team... Answer: Zero, nada, goose egg.

It was a terrific run, one of the greatest in sports history, but it’s over. Prepare to be bent over by Luka for the next 15 years.

Thanks, OP. :toast. Good years of Duncan vs. Dirk. Unlike the sniffers, I want to see the Mavs do well again.

I actually think y'all can get better now. Just trade DDR and start featuring White again. Pop could still squeeze close to 50 wins out of the team. Not a contender but not the Sacramento Kings either.

It's a shame that Luka won't take his conditioning and training seriously. Once he gets ahold of Whataburger, and Fuzzy Tacos, that will be it. That's not even taking consideration of the DFW nightlife. Maybe Mav fans get 5 decent years out of the white Lebron. :tulol...now supposedly he did take it seriously this past offseason. But I still see some baby fat on him so i hope you aren't right about this. Could be Josh Howard-esque type career.

The spurs thought they could ride the veteran core to mediocrity and maybe strike lighting. Pop is not some reactionary message board tweeker so he'll punt a third or a half of a season before trying anything drastic. They had an agreement with Morris, who is better than anything available in the draft. Dallas had to giveup another first for their luka which is fine for them, and what you have to do if you want a prospect. You know the spurs once did that too?

That said, the idea that San Antonio has some secret sauce is specious. Yes Pop, buford, and duncan are really great minds. But none have done a turn around and the risk/reward for higher draft picks is greater. But lol to Dallas trying to get to the spot LMA and derozan occupy. The spurs with TOSB duncan equaled OKC, utah, and the garnett Timby's, basically finals with deep runs. Neither Dallas or San Antonio are at that level. Dallas seems ahead, but San Antonio is ridiculously tight lipped about their plans and could uncork alternative futures. Moving on from derozan is the easiest part. It gets the team some clarity in who is the back court of the future. But it does nothing more than that.

Of course tanking is the smart move overall, when the time has come for it. I’m just saying that it’s real easy to say “I can’t wait for my team to rebuild”, it’s another thing to be in the middle of the tank as you’re getting your ass beat by 20 every night, with no end in sight.

I honestly would prefer the beatdowns instead of being let down by LA and DD every night.
