Pop will probably play him 15 minutes to ease him back into the starting lineup :bang

Great - but now we are back to square one, in the midst of an awful losing streak with STILL NO REASONABLE adjustment from Pop. Awful.

Really have no choice against Philly's big lineup.

Probably a mistake. We were better off with Patty starting over him

This isn't a modern nba team...the only adjustment is to get rid of the pieces that are dragging you down...and the spurs as an organization have never shown themselves to be aggressive enough to do that...and i have a feeling they won't show themselves to be aggressive enough to do it this time...

Self-quoting is ugly but it's relevant here: https://www.spurstalk.com/forums/showthread.php?t=282021&p=9986473&viewfull=1#post9986473

Team must play better defense and Murray is one of the keys.

Forbes hardly could defend past season and he's not even thinking on it now. He should be removed from the SL. He has also taken too many shots, expected to be low post touches for Aldridge. Don't get fooled by his scoring.

This is just deep, cosmic Snifflord stuff. I mean what other coach and strategist would see that starting DJ instead of his two superstar 6'0" guards would work.

Ok he stuck with Jakob with Murray so there was a change. Good with seeing that and what happens with PHI being a massive team so Jakob/LMA makes sense.

Like this lineup. LMA, Rudy, DeRozan, Carroll and Murray.

But then he brought Forbes in.

Because murray cant create or shoot. He's useless at this point

Murray needs to shoot 3s. Idgaf if he misses them, he needs to take them. Passing up open shots is some Fathead shit that I thought Murray was above bc of his swag and confidence. And I don’t want to hear any excuses for the kid. Shoot the damn ball.

He cant shoot. He was drafted to drive to the rim and he does that rarely. If he cant do the one thing you draft him for trade him

Agreed. He needs to stop being tentative and let it fly. He won't survive as a starter being completely allergic to shooting three-pointers.

Then again, they could surround him with shooters and finishers which would lessen his need to shot three's. Right now, with our current group he needs to stop being gun shy and let it fly.

Dejounte recovering from his bruised ego on offense but this has been his best defensive game in a while :tu

3s would make them better. But yeah let's just go ahead and stick to shooting contested mid range shots and awkward floaters

He was drafted to get to the rim and be a playmaker. But yeah let's just keep posting nonsense. Shoot threes
