Sick of dedicating so much time to being a fan, literally scheduling shit around games on game days just for this arrogant piece of shit to piss me off with his stupid, imbecilic, against conventional wisdom because he's a genius rotations. Then his arrogant responses to suggestions that changes might help.

Send his ass to the stands. Give him a Riley type role.

[Allan Rowe vs Wade]

well bye

Edgelords are so edgy asking for Demarre Carroll to play over guys like Beli.

Spurfan so spoiled from the Golden Years, how dare you question Pop. :lol

Walker is a worse version of Murray, who could be worse than Marco.

13 minute for white :lmao

[TimDunkem]

How is it edgy to say the Forbes, Beli, and Bryn suck ass?

or is just saying that a coach who runs with those 3 is not good is edgy because he won 5 chips with on of the top 3 players in NBA history?

We need to get Kawhi back on a minutes restriction.

[Crazymaddopeyo]

[Floyd Pacquiao]

I've already quit going to the games, soon I'll quit giving them ratings if Belinelli, Forbes and mills continue to play more minutes than the young athletic Americans with potential and defensive ability.

[timvp]

To be fair, Murray and White were terribad. Doncic destroyed boaf of them.

[gambit1990]

you said this last year :lmao

[Prime BEEF]

There’s not a single player on this team that I like or like rooting for. And then add pop’s shit and this whole season feels like the twilight zone from hell. Still a spurs fan but this shit show is embarrassing and there’s no reason for hope right now.

Except I'm really out this time.

What he's done to my boy is downright criminal. Everyone, from fans to pundits, had him pegged as a breakout candidate. He was the one enjoyable thing about last season. He singlehandedly turned the defense from bottom of the barrel to middle of the pack. JVG said at times he looked like the best player at the Team USA camp. And look where he is now thanks to Pop's favoritism towards lesser players. Its disgusting.

And dont give me this bullshit about he wasn't playing that well. Does LMA get 10 minutes when he plays like a bitch? How about DeRozan when he's being the loser he's always been? Wombat when he shot 20% in the playoffs? How about Rudy when he couldn't hit shit for like the first 5 games of the DEN series? White is at worst the 3rd best player on the team yet for some reason this arrogant motherfucker has decided to ruin him by treating him like an 8th man. And for who? Forbes and Wombat? I've always defended Forbes but he's not Derrick White. Not even close. Wombat is just a faggot.

[FkLA]

Nah. You got too much passion to walk away. I would be a more likely guy to walk. I am just pretty apathetic at this point. I, too, hate how he refuses to develop Derrick as he begs to be developed. But I hope to outlast Pop and see a competent coach come in and put our guys in position to develop individually and win games. You'll be here.

[JeffDuncan]

I'll still watch the Spurs. But as far as caring goes, I've checked out.

[cjw]

I agree. Almost need a season off. They’re not winning the championship this year, so will tune in only when convenient.

Look forward to the young guys developing, hopefully trading Demar, Aldridge and Gay for something useful, and getting a top 17 pick for the first time in two decades.

Pop is lost with the game passing him by and all his talented assistants leaving to coach elsewhere. As a result, Pop is regressing to strategies that worked in the past. Mid-range ball. Aldridge as his Duncan replacement. Murray doubling for Parker. White as his Ginobili energizer off the bench. It's asinine and retarded as those three are nothing like the big 3 but the old man is confused and looking for familiar faces in the current roster.

[UZER]

I'll still watch the Spurs. But as far as caring goes, I've checked out.

I’m kinda reaching Pop’s level of not caring, tbh.

[Dex]

Shut up.

Why so serious?

It’ll be alright broseph. Life goes on

[FkLA]

I don't even give a fuck about the losing. I watched every game the previous two seasons, and those were low ceiling teams too. But for him to essentially want to run it back, while ruinng last season's bright spot? There was a lot of excitement going into the season and it had nothing to do with Wombat, Forbes, and Beli yet here we are. Then to top it off his arrogance about the whole thing. What's the point of even watching?

See y'all next season, boys. Hopefully he's moved to the stands and the great Timothy Theodore Duncan has taken over by then.

[spurraider21]

To be fair, Murray and White were terribad. Doncic destroyed boaf of them.
oh. how did marco hold up against him?

[wildcardX]

Every team in every league has to go through down times. It's a part of the sports world and us fans should still be there to bitch and moan through every part of it until our team gets back on track. Only Lakers fans can jump ship to become Warriors fans for a few years then come back to being Lakers fans like they never left. Don't be that kind of fan(or at least don't be a Lakers fan).

I've been a Chargers fan since the Dan Fouts days and let me tell you something, you think the Spurs have it bad. The Chargers make the Knicks look like a good franchise. I should have picked another team when I was a kid.......but I'm a committed fan. I stick with them no matter what piece of shit LA crackhead infested soccer stadium they play in.

That's what the remaining Sniffers don't get tbh. This team has a chance to at least be entertaining and building towards the future tbh.

Throwing IG/White/Lonnie out there is gonna be hit/miss. They'll fuck up A LOT but they'll gain valuable experience and might even produce an entertaining brand of chaos. Sure, it's probably not a playoff team but it'll be damn good for their development.

Instead, we see absolute career losers get the lion's share of minutes, garbage rotations, and a shitty product that would have been tough to watch even in the 90s. And on top of that, they're still getting their doors blown off every game without a change in sight.

Preach, brother. Entertaining basketball requires passion. The young guys have some... still. Pop hasn't yet coached them hard enough to lose their passion and get over themselves.

OH, and I really want to see what Carroll can do if given the chance. Maybe next season under a new coach...

[Nivek_ogre]

Walker is a worse version of Murray, who could be worse than Marco.

You are a fucktard

[apalisoc_9]

oh. how did marco hold up against him?

Game Grdes:

Marco C+

[SayTown]

I as I'm sure most fans were excited about this upcoming season even though I knew coming in to this season we had no chance of winning a ship. I was hoping White and Murray would be the starting backcourt and give opposing guards hell on the defensive end and play at a faster run and gun pace but that didn't happen. Ok so then White is coming off the bench ok well I figured at least they would close out games as the backcourt and that's not happening and they are playing around 20 minutes a game. The main reason I watched tonight's game was to see Luka play and I'm out as well until Murray and White are playing together and playing around 30 minutes a game. Cest la vie

[DPG21920]

To be fair, Murray and White were terribad. Doncic destroyed boaf of them.

Bruh, where is this “to be fair” business when the opposite is occurring with Beli/Forbes/Mills? It’s not there. Why is it that Lonnie/Murray/White get the short leash but the NO_D3 get to run wild?

I know it is really, really frustrating but maybe take a break if you are investing too much emotionally in the team. This has always been Pop's M.O., but now that the team isn't dripping with HOF talent it makes it less bearable.

I'm getting agitated as well especially when it is clear that, even if he is a better version (or equal) to Dante Cunningham, Carroll's high BBIQ and better defensive chops (look how he was guarding Porzingis in the 4th) would be a huge, huge asset. Not to mention the excitement and potential Lonnie could bring if given more of a chance.

The excuse of not playing him makes sense if, if the team competitive and fighting for a playoff spot. It is still early, but I feel like that is off the table (for now).

[Mugen]

Bruh, where is this “to be fair” business when the opposite is occurring with Beli/Forbes/Mills? It’s not there. Why is it that Lonnie/Murray/White get the short leash but the NO_D3 get to run wild?

Of course, your "quitting" is based on your hard - on for Derrick White.

LOL, remember when you said he was better than Jamal Murray. Good times.....

Anyway, if he would remain disciplined on defense (stop biting for pump fakes) and made smart, assertive plays on offense Pop wouldn't have gone to the shit sandwich trio as much.

I know, I know, it isn't Derrick's fault he's looked passive, tentative and lacked confidence but only Pop's fault for not gifting him minutes and praising him not stop....

[Slippy]

Get the feeling some of the younger guys on this spurs are quitting on the team too. Watching your team lose consistently and the coach rewarding mediocrity has gotta be deflating.

I disagree. I think that would make them a playoff team. Maybe not, but I think they'd be more likely to make the playoffs than the alternative lineups that have gotten them where they are now. They'd be better with the Murray-White-Walker trio playing 85+ minutes a game, and if Pop changed things up there's still time to be a playoff team, easy. What are they, 4 games back? If Pop changes in time they are a playoff team, no doubt in my mind.

Again, imbecile, I know you are super dumb and slow. But, this team would have destroyed in the 90's when the mid range was king and you had hand checking (to protect shitty defenders). Plus, the fact that the offense is actually good this year and they have played a quicker pace than the Spurs have historically (under Pop).


I understand you are slow, hate Pop and your "favorite" team but have some knowledge and understanding of the game with your moronic takes and trolling.

You have to be the #1 stupidest troll on the boards by a long shot.

[KobesAchilles]

I didn’t watch the game tonight bc I was doing (insert literally any activity) and it didn’t seem worth watching the Mavs beat us. I saw the box score and assumed White got hurt and that’s why he played 13 minutes. Reading this thread I’m guessing that wasn’t the case.

And also LOL at Marco’s minutes going up! how does a sniffer defend that? Well Marco is shooting 20% from the field and playing the worst defense of any player in the NBA
:pop: increase his minutes

[siraulo23]

Did white get injured? Why only 13 mins

I want them to make changes, shithead. I want Walker to play, Carroll to play, Belinelli, Forbes and/or Mills to be bench.

But, unlike you I don't need to be intellectually dishonest and spout toxic, inane bullshit to get my feelings across.

I'll let you get back to your circle jerk, though, I know how much you and the crew love to squeeze off on each other.

By reading your posts you seem just as stupid as "Mugen," so I'm sure you love taking it in the face.

[Down Under]

White will be starting by the end of the month...

[J_Paco]

Did white get injured? Why only 13 mins

No, he was timid/ineffective on offense, let Luka get to his spots on defense and was biting on countless pump fakes.

Murray was doing much of the same until he hit a few jumpers in the 2nd half.

Both guys were uneven with their play so Pop (foolishly) resorted to putting Patty on Luka at the end of 2nd, large parts of the 3rd quarter & 4th quarter. Needless to say, Luka had a monster game due to all those factors......

Not like he doesn't have Walker IV, Carrol or even Gay to try to stemmy him a bit. Nope, go with the guy who is 6', uh I mean 6'2" versus a dude who is a legitimate 6'8".

[J_Paco]

White will be starting by the end of the month...

Not sure how that happens and the bench doesn't become an even bigger disaster on defense. Pop needs to stop throwing away games and play Carroll/Walker IV (warts and all) over Belinelli/Forbes.

I don't see that happening unless the losing streak reaches double digits (and they play the Wizards on Wednesday).

[duncan2k5]

what ppl dont get is that this isn't pop of 10-20 years ago that would make the best basketball decision for the team...this Pop is struggling with wanting to prove his legacy really wasnt based on tim duncan (his "i dont care" act when he loses on team USA and in certain NBA games is a tactic to make it seem like he lost because he wasn't trying). Pop wants to make decisions that go against conventional wisdom to make it seem like he knows more than anyone else...

so he takes tim duncan out on a defensive play that would cement a ring...Tim Duncan...one of the greatest rebounders and the greatest defensive PF of all time...now he trots out insane lineups and refuses to make very obvious adjustments because he hopes that somehow they still win and he gets to say that he knows best and we dont know what we are talking about...

the more something looks obvious and fans want it, the less likely he is to do it, tbh...lonnie isn't playing because of all the preseason hype he got...marco is playing possibly the worst basketball of any player in the NBA right now, but because fans want lonnie to get his minutes, Pop will double down on benching lonnie for marco...dont expect LMA or DDR to get traded (they may even get extended)...this is our new reality

[Bynumite]

Most of you are not old enough to have ever seen or remember the spurs in the gutter, all you've seen is 20 years of basketball with different degrees of playoff success and 5 rings to go along with it. Now at the first sign of adversity, you decide to call it quits :lmao

The problem I am seeing is if one of our stars (DD or LMA) get going, he then surrounds them with shooters towards the end, in the attempt to spread for floor, allowing his star to operate. The issue here is, our shooters are not really pushing them, as highlighted in the TiMVP article of Forbes. Also I agree that White was playing poorly, but he probably deserved more minutes to get out of that funk.

Sure, because there were absolutely no finesse players or mid range scorers in the 90's.

You idiots can't have it both ways. Complain that our two main stars have an archaic, mid-range, 90's based game then turnaround and say that neither could have succeeded in said era.

Neither would be a superstar, but their games would be far more conducive and effective in that era. To say otherwise is just stupid, trolling nonsense.

Oh wait......

You idiots can't have it both ways. Complain that our two main stars have an archaic, mid-range, 90's based game then turnaround and say that neither could have succeeded in said era.

Neither would be a superstar, but their games would be far more conducive and effective in that era. To say otherwise is just stupid, trolling nonsense.

Oh wait......

Exactly son, both are true, so it is important to watch games rather than repeat what you hear as a parrot.

No, unless you have a fucking time machine that isn't "true." It is just an opinion that has no real basis in reality or evidence. Just meaningless catch - all phrases like "soft" or "loser" that don't state how they couldn't have thrived in that era. Again, come with some substance to back up your inane opinion.

We will agree on this, but do you know what is insane? someone who says "this team would have destroyed in the 1990s" based on what they are watching today with no "substance" to support that statement.

lets assume Green and Vassell have comparable value... Brooks is a better player than HB and his salaries are descending. suns also really needed better defense at the forward spot (other than Dunn). then of course, #10 pick is going to have more value than the #14 pick, and its not like we could just throw in a few SRP to even it out since HOU threw out 5

the reported VD + HB + 14 package wouldnt have beathen this version of the offer that includes Brooks. unless we threw in sochan as well. as much as i have reservations about sochan (well documented), his fit alongside durant actually would have been pretty interesting

Lol why? Another teens to early 20s first round pick is the difference between going out and grabbing a generational talent, who is willing to take less on his extension? That's crazy.

You really aren't following the situation, are you?
We traded away '27 already, meaning we can't trade '26 or '28.
You don't trade away '29 for a player who will be done by then when your franchise player still hasn't played a game after suffering a serious blood clot issue.

Dont they still have ATL's '27 pick? And why does trading away their own '27 make '26 and '28 so untouchable?

[LeBowen]

You want to trade a pick that's likely to be in the lottery because Hawks are a dumpster tier franchise that always fucks it up?


And why does trading away their own '27 make '26 and '28 so untouchable?

Stepien rule, can't trade away FRPs in consecutive years.
'26 also has ATL swap attached and '28 has BOS swap attached. Those can be valuable.

Nah Stepien Rule only requires you to have a first round pick every other year, not necessarily your own, so 26 or 28 could have been traded.

It applies to other team's picks as long as they're unprotected?

yes. The Hawks pick counts, so they can trade 26 and 28

Haven't seen anything about KD taking less on his extension. If the Spurs were paying full price on his extension it would have made things tricky when it comes to paying Victor in 2027, which would be the last year of KD's extension. Means the Spurs would have needed to go into the first apron that season most likely. Also means they not signing Sochan to an extension and not using the MLE any of the next 3 years hence why I was 50/50 on KD. Very hard to think he'll be like LeBron and still a high end player at age 39 but maybe his age 37 production would have still been worth it and maybe you get lucky on his age 38 season so I wasn't against bringing him either. I would have probably offered Sochan too and replaced Barnes with Keldon, and would have done it in a second if KD was willing to take a paycut to say $35 million a year for the extension (no problem at all paying his $55 million next season with the team's cap as it is).

Wonder how much less he's taking. Houston isn't going to have the kind of cap crunch the Spurs would have in Year 3 with KD on the payroll, especiallly if Sheppard improves enough to take over the starting PG role when Van Vleet's deal comes off the books.

[Seventyniner]

The gist of the rule is "you can't put yourself into a situation where it's possible you could go two consecutive future drafts without a first round pick".

Protections and conditional conveyances can screw with things, but in this case the Spurs could trade SA26 and SA28 and still comply with the rule because they are guaranteed to have a first in 2027 (ATL27). If ATL27 had any protections on it, even only top 1 protected, the Spurs couldn't trade either SA26 or SA28.

The "future" part also resets on draft day, so a team that doesn't have a 2026 first can trade their 2025 first on draft day cause it's no longer a future draft. Draft day also rolls forward the farthest out pick a team can trade (7 years) and teams can trade 20132 picks tomorrow night.

Edit: added "consecutive" cause without that it's incorrect

[scott]

Having the ATL27 pick makes trading 26 or 28 Stepien compliant. Not saying we should trade those... but we can if we want to.

Edit: I now see others beat me to this punch. Sorry for the redundant reply
