Dejounte Murray unfollows Spurs on Instagram

[Dhbsr555]

Dd just deleted all photos on Instagram last time that happened he was traded. Dejounte Murray also unfollowed spurs.

[Yogatti]

Orlando Magic? Aaron Gordon? :toast

[NASpurs]

I also unfollowed them both and deleted all my shit. Trade confirmed.

[sasaint]

A guy who I work with said that the Spurs and Miami were in discussions. But that’s just hearsay because I don’t know where he got his info.

[Beartrucci]

Dejounte really unfollowed Spurs?

Where you see the Murray stuff?

WTF is happening

[gambit1990]

wow... murray isn't following the spurs.

[gambit1990]

demar still is though.

[gambit1990]

idk if murray was following the spurs before but you would think so...

[Dejounte]

Murray is locked up for four years. Unless he goes primadonna on us, he cant do nothing about being benched. Thats what this probably is. He took the benching personal.

[NASpurs]

It was on /r/nbaspurs in a tweet that funny enough links to here (front page)

[sasaint]

Another way of looking at his contract status is that it might well make him very attractive to any potential trade partner.

[DPG21920]

Wouldn’t be surprised. This was my biggest concern; Pop being selfish and not doing what’s right by the franchise and alienating the youth.

Friction with Lonnie. Murray seemingly having flare ups. Spurs can’t afford to have pop run off the young men for Mills Beli and Forbes.

[sasaint]

Thanks. At least I know that it really was out there somewhere.

[fusionjazzman72]

also saw it on Murrays instagram page that he isn't following the spurs

[Dhbsr555]

To me something had to happen because it seemed Murray was ride or die spurs.

[sasaint]

Pop is gonna burn the house down before he finally goes off to his vineyard. Somebody in ownership has got to wake up before it is too late.

[gambit1990]

yeah, exactly what i was thinking.

[Genovaswitness]

wow Murray actually isn’t following the spurs.

[Dennis the Menace]

Everyone has been screaming this. Ownership has to be clueless. Pop is going to Mack Brown this organization

After the Kawhi fiasco you’d think Pop would learn something

[Dennis the Menace]

Lose Bertans, Lonnie and Murray checking out, and White seemingly looking frustrated during games. The house is on fire

[Allan Rowe vs Wade]

******OMG DEJOUNTE NOT FOLLOWING THE SPURS ON INSTAGRAM OMG******

[Keepin' it real]

Everyone has been screaming this. Ownership has to be clueless. Pop is going to Mack Brown this organization

Dear Kind Sir,

Who is this Mack Brown to whom you make reference?

Many thanks in advance for your kind reply.

[gambit1990]

(could be nothing) the "rumor" i saw said heat, spurs deal involving demar and la.

and the whole murray not following the spurs is weird. maybe spurs do have big changes in store...

[gambit1990]

i wonder if it'd be three way trade with the thunder...

and i wonder about the heat making such big changes even though they're tied for 2nd in the east. weird...

[BWS-1994]

Taking on two terrible contracts and giving up DeRozan should net you much more than a middle of the road 1st.

I’m sure everybody recalls Riley’s courtship of LMA when he signed here and his advice to sign a 1-year deal and then join the Heat.

[phxspurfan]

Where there's smoke there's fire. Dejounte announcing his New Balance deal right after being benched...DeMar deleting all of his content...Dejounte unfollowing Spurs...

Shits going downhill fast

[Kurgan]

Considering how terrible PATFO is when it comes to trades, we should all be prepared for the worst.

[Degoat]

Can dejounte even be traded yet with his extension?

[spurspl]

im pretty excited about all these things

[timtonymanu]

:lol pissing off the one guy that is the heart and leadership of the team cause you want to keep playing Bryn Mason Jr

[Dhbsr555]

A normal acl Injury takes 9-12 months to heel .. Murray almost at the 14th month. I can defiantly see why he is aggravated.

[timvp]

Most of the time, "unfollow" claims end up being BS. This could very well be BS.

Buuuuuuut, while I can't find a cache of Dejounte's Instagram, he has unfollowed someone on Twitter at some point in the last five days. He went from following 161 to now following 160.

Hey, its as conclusive as the Zapruder film. :lol Thanks. :toast

[ElNono]

tbh, Pop's retirement tour is starting to look like Kobe's... way past his prime and sinking the franchise with him...

[Chomag]

We are going to lose all our youth potential to the culture of Forbes, Mills, and Belli arnt we...thanks a Lot Old Man I hope your enjoying your wine!

Thanks for setting the franchise back about 10 years for your tour

[r0drig0lac]

I don't blame him, well you have people here believing that Forbes is a better player than him.

[r0drig0lac]

:lol pissing off the one guy that is the heart and leadership of the team cause you want to keep playing Bryn Mason Jr
yep, fuck Pop

[NickiRasgo]

He stop following LMA too. I'm surprised that he's not following Manu either.

[GreekSpursfan]

No feel for the game to be your starting pg, can't shoot for a back court player, trade his ass as soon as his value goes up. He's gonna have a few good games later down the line and we need to take advantage of that when it happens, not now.

[MoSpur02]

He was involved in some Instagram drama with some girl. Dejounte was/is accused of creating burner accounts to stalk this girl. This was pretty recent.

[MoSpur02]

Anyway...I wouldn't want him to be traded. He has potential, but we've been saying that for awhile it seems. Today he looked horrible on offense. His ball handling skills need work and he needs to learn to play under control.

[JuneJive]

What's the scuttlebutt?

[John B]

Imo it’s so players can focus more on the work ahead and avoid distractions? I’m perfectly fine with it tbh

[LkrFan]

Dejounte has that Klutch gene :lol

[LkrFan]

https://i.imgur.com/mSRNRCK.jpg

Do it RC :lmao

[jermaine]

If he unfollowed his team cuz he got benched, fuck him an get him off the team.

[Dejounte]

He stop following LMA too. I'm surprised that he's not following Manu either.

Good catch. Dejounte WAS following Manu. I remember seeing this. As far as unfollowing LMA, Pop's comments last night make sense now. Someone on the SL said they were more comfortable with White. It was LMA.

[jermaine]

Can you imagine if Manu stopped following the Spurs cuz he was told to be the 6th man!?!

[Dejounte]

Looks like he deleted his instagram photo with LMA as well

[dbestpro]

I see nothing that Miami has that the Spurs would benefit from, unless Pop thinks sending maybe Rudy Gay and Murray for Dragic will turn around the season for this year. I know that sounds crazy but the front office may be looking at adding vets instead of youth that may never blossom.

[acoelho1]

No way Murray tolerates being benched and if the Spurs don’t want another Kawhi fiasco, they need to either remedy this situation or trade him. Also, even with the change, we still loss. Murray needs to be playing to get better, period. You didn’t sign him to that big contract so Forbes can play over him.

[r0drig0lac]

Winslow (and JJ imo)

[Prime BEEF]

The Miami thing was just thrown out there by a Miami writer as a hey why not do a trade with the spurs to help them improve this year. The article I read was shitty and didn’t say much

[BillMc]

If true, its pretty juvenile. As if the Spurs benched him just to be mean.

[Prime BEEF]

Now a good trade would be....

DDR/Forbes/Murray for Drummond/Kennard/1st Rd Pick

[313]

Spur for life until...

[UZER]

If this was happening under a new coach and new direction, I wouldn’t mind as much.

That fact that this stuff is happening under Pops watch, when he will not even be coaching these players in the near future is maddening.

Yes Murray is nowhere near the talent Kawhi was. But this has a “here we go again with Pop and young guys” feel.

Step aside already old man. Your coaching at this point is setting the franchise back.

[Russ]

I wouldn't be surprised if Pop went after DJ at halftime last night.

DJ got the ball with 20 seconds left in the half and Spurs up by 5.

Instead of going for the last shot, DJ thought he could go coast-to-coast for an easy layup but LeBron (I believe) blocked him from behind at the hoop.

The Lakers got the ball and hit a three at the buzzer -- a 5 point swing due to DJ's decision.

I could see Pop excoriating him in front of the team at halftime in the locker room.

[Sugus]

Not a good look for both Dejounte and the Spurs if this is actually true. There has to be more to this story than makes the headlines, I wonder what's going on in the locker room. Can't be smooth sailing with all these losses... We need to get rid of these ficking vets before they implode the entire team

[SayTown]

Hopefully Dejounte will go Deron Williams on Pop and get the senile man ousted.

[KobesAchilles]

LMA and white just have a connection. No doubt about it and why I said Pop should've started white from the get go. If he was going to minutes restriction Dejounte anyways, he might as well have put him on the bench and ease him into the game. Plus there's something to be said about the more eurocentric passing offense the bench plays that would help a young player like Dj to learn how to be a better floor general.

White is not a veteran

[Dverde]

It was never Uncle Dennis, it was New Balance the whole time!

:lol Team full of clowns and emo losers tbh.

[My Fault]

Trade his ass to the Lakers for Kuzma, no point in fighting the klutch sports fix to get him there.

[Poolboy5623]

This team is hilarious.

[RC_Drunkford]

Flopovich just keeps fuckin up the franchise. Of course White should start. But now there's friction between LaMarcus and DJ. Good job Pop. I can see the Spurs trading DJ and Lonnie. Just because I expect it from this idiotic senile coach as the decision maker

[Poolboy5623]

I've never seen so much hype for a pg that is tentative and cant shoot lol.

[Mugen]

A bunch of clowns being coached by a senile old man who still brings up the past every chance he gets :lol

[DPG21920]

Losing isn’t fun but any drama is on pop. You don’t do what he’s doing to the younger, more talented guys. You don’t ask your future to shut up and yo yo them around for the likes of Forbes, Mills & Beli. You invest in them. You build them up and you put them in a position to flourish and know they are the future.

This isn’t a team that is winning titles. There is no Tim, Manu or TP playing. There’s no reason for these guys to shut up and take it when there isn’t a reason for it.

It’s completely bogus what pop is doing if we are being honest. This organization and its leaders are proving themselves severely lacking and I’m not even including Kawhi since that was him being a snake. But this team and this coach needs to do something fast before it’s too late. And now we have a rookie GM with no clout?

Let’s see if he’s worth anything.

[exstatic]

Hopefully Dejounte will go Deron Williams on Pop and get the senile man ousted.

Ha. If we get a return like Utah did for Deron, trade his high dribble, no shooting ass.

Their refusal/fear to do or say anything is the same look Becky, Tim (no blame on Tim he doesn’t even want to be there) and co. had when they kept their asses glued to the bench after Pop was ejected. What an embarrassment to have to come out after the fact and say it was by committee. What a mess.

Pop has the entire organization held hostage at this point. He has the fans hostage at this point too. We can’t even genuinely root for our home town team right now.

Thanks for everything Pop, but you gotta go before you ruin the future your not even going to be a part of.

[Capt Bringdown]

Murray is vastly over-rated.

[Sugus]

Dejounte quoted as allegedly saying, through a burner account, (sic) "Bitch stop posting shit cause I got recipes on yo ass ho / Quit playing / You sound soooooo stoopid Bitch / Go wipe your ass your just left the club sis".

Not sure how much truth there is in any of this, but kind of a terrible look for Dejounte. Let's not act like it has any impact on his on-court production, though (unless it drags on like Forbes' child custody situation did).

E: just realized this has to be a scam on DJ. His alleged messages don't have every single word capitalized... :lol

[Dex]

I've never seen so much hype for a pg that is tentative and cant shoot lol.

That's my thing. I like DJ, and think he has a lot of potential...but that's all it is right now: potential.

Aside from his All-NBA Defense bid, he hasn't proven a goddamn thing. He is still a career 7.0/4.5/2.6 player (with a particularly low assist rate for a point), missed an entire year with injury, and hasn't accomplished much more than getting swept by the Warriors.

The fact that the Spurs were actually more competitive last year with Bryn Forbes playing his role should be a red flag to him. Considering what he has actually done on the court, he should feel lucky to get the contract that he did. The Spurs bet on him, and so far he isn't pulling in the returns.

If he thinks unfollowing the Spurs on IG is really gonna send waves through the org, he is just showing his youth and acting like an entitled millennial. It's like when you block your friend on FB because they disagree with one of your posts. Pop doesn't give a shit what DJ does online...he'd probably prefer Murray didn't engage in any of that nonsense tbh.

That said, Pop needs to give him a longer leash and let him come into himself instead of trying to bench the "future cornerstone" after a bad start to the season. You gotta know your personnel...everyone knew that Murray was going to take a demotion personally, and all signs are pointing to that being the case. This isn't Tim or Manu we are working with anymore.

There is a dark cloud over DJ right now for sure and something is going on but he did just recently make his signing with NB official within the last week. Would make sense that NB would want him to change his profile to promote the brand he now represents. That picture means nothing.

[Chinook]

He's a talented very young player coming off an ACL tear and on a very reasonable contract. The Spurs would have to be absolute morons to trade him away

[Chinook]

Also, to drink the kool-aid a little bit, Murray could be mad because the team is trading DeRozan. Pulling a Lowry so to speak.

Hopefully. Fuck demae

[FkLA]

White >>> IB

White led this same team to the playoffs as the starting PG just saying. And if it wasnt for his own injuries and him being in and out of the lineup, could've easily been a Top 4 seed. Tbf to IB though, it's stupid that its painfully obvious that the problem is defense...and the guys who's minutes/roles Pop keeps playing with (Lyles, Carroll, IB) aren't the problem on defense. DNP-ing Shitinelli was a good start. Hopefully its permanent although it would not shock me one bit if he's back in the rotation next game.

[8FOR!3]

Very good chance that Murray will be a different player in a year or two, some guys take longer to recover than others

[DPG21920]

Murray is vastly over-rated.

Overrated or underrated isn’t the point. The Spurs are on the cusp of rebuilding, they need the youth engaged and leading the charge and empowered. They committed money to Dejounte and talked him up. To alienate him now? Is just flat out stupid even if he’s the most overrated player in nba history.

[DPG21920]

Is Murray handling conflict the best? No. But Pop is even worse and he’s the face of the organization. These guys are competitive and they know the truth. They know that Beli/Forbes/Mills/Etc. Aren’t the future or better than them.

They know Pop plays favorites and isn’t playing people based on results. He will bash the defense, yet he’s not holding the players accountable....oh accept the guys like Lonnie who play 5 minutes total

[DJR210]

Losing a ton of games, despite expectations of being better than last year. Being benched, then started, then benched.

Who gives a shit about social medias? That's all pretend stuff on a computer. Live in reality.

[DJR210]

Losing a ton of games, despite expectations of being better than last year. Being benched, then started, then benched.

Maybe he's pulling the ol "delete my online life to prove I'm 100% dialed in" gimmick - he definitely loves to share the appearance of hard work and results

[jermaine]

Also, to drink the kool-aid a little bit, Murray could be mad because the team is trading DeRozan. Pulling a Lowry so to speak.

[DPG21920]

Maybe he's pulling the ol "delete my online life to prove I'm 100% dialed in" gimmick - he definitely loves to share the appearance of hard work and results

I don’t have a read on what is going on honestly; Im saying on the surface at least we can see why there would be frustration and friction and there is some smoke coupled with very questionable decisions by Pop that lead one (at least me) to err on the side of “Pop isn’t doing a very good job this year”

[JADG79]

Right now nobody can be untouchable specially Pop.
I don’t care about any player right now.

[Noey7448]

Also, to drink the kool-aid a little bit, Murray could be mad because the team is trading DeRozan. Pulling a Lowry so to speak.

I think this is on point. Seems they have gotten close when u see them interacting during games and attending events.

[raybies]

i been hearing from so many people that a trade is going down... when??? what are we waiting for. can't actually be waiting for bobblehead night... but knowing the org that would be the penny pinching thing to do lol

[SpurPadre]

He could've unfollowed Spurs to hide his embarrassment of being outed by that IG hoe. Otherwise, this is pissing me off...

[SpursDynasty85]

hmm. I'll just wait until something more concrete than Instagram habits/patterns for now. Although, it was a bit interesting to hear at first.

:tu


You're finally starting to embrace the idea that some kind of rebuild is inevitable. The only real question is how they go about it. But one thing is for sure - the future of the rebuild is built around youth. Even if they manage to bring in a star or two, the key to being able to afford them is cheap contracts elsewhere. And cheap contracts are generally either young players or castoff players.

DJ feels like he did everything right, and said all the right things during his year off. When PATFO was catching shit over losing Kawhi, Murray was openly saying how good they are to work for. I know the team invested money in him, but if he acted like that's all he cared about the people here would be bitching about that, too. He may have an ego, but a guy with no ego isn't ever going to stand out.

[acoelho1]

First of all, Murray hasn't said anything so it remains to be seen how pissed he is about being benched and I think all of us would be annoyed if put in the same situation. He's not the type that would except coming off the bench and if the Spurs didn't believe he would reach his potential then why give him the money now. The issues on this team revolves around DDR and LMA and not Murray. We have been losing with Murray in and out of the lineup and he's been on a minutes restriction. He needs to play to get better and Pop style is not always conducive to giving a guy confidence. Pop's acting like we still have 3 hall of famers on the team. This is straight up sabotage by the organization and it's the only explanation by how they handled the lineups this year and Walker's seat warmer status.

[SpurPadre]

The strange thing about this is that Murray recently said that he trusts anything Pop has him do and that his track record speaks for itself. To just say that two weeks ago and then throw a little fit off a benching? And as I type this I see that he's unfollowed the Spurs on BOTH IG and Twitter. Doesn't make sense.

[BillMc]

He wasn't playing well. He needs to grow up.

[TD 21]

If true, it might not be more than anything but immaturity and petulance from an entitled player, but would anyone be surprised? I and I believe it was spursistan, were calling this last season.

Predictably, White didn't cause any waves about being demoted, but he supposedly is. This guy has done nothing but bite the hand that feeds him. A prestigious organization hands him a prime role, that he never really earned, as well as a sizable contract (despite zero history of competent offensive half court basketball, only the most important aspect of his job), yet all I've seen is disrespect at every turn. From "caping" for Scumbag, to signing with New Balance to now this.

He's not talented enough to be worth the trouble and he's delusional if he thought the starting lineup could afford another non 3-point shooter.

tbh, there are different versions of that story. One version had AJ knocking Malik out with one punch. Another had AJ almost getting into it with Admiral after he was done beating the shit out of Malik before others finally intervened. Apparently, Malik had it coming to him but Admiral being a made man and all was when they weren't having it.

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

Murray needs to get over himself if he's actually upset about being benched. Other than a few random decent games he's done nothing to show any sort of sustained ability to run a team. Hobbled Tony Parker was far better at running the offense a couple of seasons back. Murray and Walker are two guys with the tools who haven't been able to put them to use yet.

Fvcking emo little sh!ts on this team. If this is the way the NBA has evolved I can't believe Pop still wants to coach.

[SpurPadre]

People are tweeting about this but so far, no mentions from real NBA insiders, who lets face it, would also be all over this if this was happening to the Lakers.

LMA and white just have a connection. No doubt about it and why I said Pop should've started white from the get go. If he was going to minutes restriction Dejounte anyways, he might as well have put him on the bench and ease him into the game. Plus there's something to be said about the more eurocentric passing offense the bench plays that would help a young player like Dj to learn how to be a better floor general.

What's the point of starting mediocre players and stunting Murray's growth?

Wouldn’t be surprised. This was my biggest concern; Pop being selfish and not doing what’s right by the franchise and alienating the youth.

Friction with Lonnie. Murray seemingly having flare ups. Spurs can’t afford to have pop run off the young men for Mills Beli and Forbes.

Kawhi set the example and now the younger guys are just following suit.

PATFO fluffers on twitter saying Murray never followed the Spurs or Patty, bullshit! :lmao I constantly saw him like pics the team would put up. He also would post pics of him and Patty on his story and he’d tag him. Dejounte follows every player on the roster even a scrub like Hommes, but he doesn’t follow Patty? Who he’s always spoken highly of and called the best teammate ever had? Yeah okay

But then, he follows Keldon Johnson. What made him following Keldon Johnson but not Patty Mills in Instagram? Considering they have/had a good relationship.

[NickiRasgo]

By the way just to make it clear to those who don't know with regards to unfollowing a user in Instagram, a user can remove a follower too so it's hard to say sometimes if a user unfollow someone or a user removes someone from following his/her account.

[HankChinaski]

It's Instagram who gives a crap. Instagram for me is just following a Seinfeld Instagram and a couple other shows that post clips from the shows when ever I want a quick laugh.

Some comments from LMA on Murray (and other stuff):

1199782000137256960

[timvp]

Asked if Murray has handled going to the bench like a pro, Aldridge said, “Yes, he has, for sure. He is a big-time pro and he is going to come in every day and work hard.”

Considering Aldridge is the last one to BS just to appease the media (or Pop ... or anyone really, tbh), that's good news :tu

Yeah it is - I do wonder if LMA pushed to have White start to make him comfortable?

[lmbebo]

Yeah it is - I do wonder if LMA pushed to have White start to make him comfortable?

I don't think so. I think DDR said things run smoother with White as PG. Knows how to get people the ball where they want it. He's more of a natural PG than DM.

[Leetonidas]

That article makes me feel LMA spoke up to Pop and threw Murray under the bus for not getting him into his spots :lol

It sucks, i am a huge DJM fan but after an impressive couple games to begin the year, he has looked pretty mediocre and sometimes downright bad out there. he's a PG but cant really dribble and doesnt have great vision. he's tall enough to play on the perimeter but he cant shoot. tough for him to find his role right now. But White definitely needs to be starting from here on out. I wish Pop would just bench Forbes and let Mills run the backup PG and start Murray/White together and stagger their minutes so one of them is always out there.

[timvp]

I don't think so.

1) Pop isn't one to hold powwows to determine who should start.
2) Watching the Aldridge interview, he didn't seem to hold a strong opinion one way or the other.

[ginobilized]

Glad to hear directly from some players during this IG age. They sound grounded and are trying to figure it out.
I’m with LMA, I still believe.

But Murray still can't shoot. He and White won't make sense together until Murray can fit into an offense where he'll hardly touch the ball. Somehow, Forbes/White/DeRozan/Gay/Aldridge managed to be a strong enough unit last year. Run that and a Mills/Murray/Carroll/Lyles/Poeltl bench, and you have a pretty good 10-man rotation. I think you'll also see Forbes shoot better with more offense around him, and that bench has the potential to be pretty strong defensively while not sacrificing spacing or flow.

I’d rather the SL have better defense. I think the SL would score fine with Murray/White/DeRozan/Rudy/LMA

I appreciate some real news, I’m sick of the Instagram paranoia. I just wish Aldridge is right and Murray keeps behaving like a good professional. Historically, Murray’s Instagram actions are chaotic. DDR doing weird things is a routine. Mills’ move is intriguing though.

Tonight, we shall see if the feelings are running high or not.

[TheGreatYacht]

Follows every single spur from scrubs like Metu and Hommes, to no-longer-Spurs like Pau, Fathead, Danny, and Bertans, to even new spurs like Carroll, Luka, and Keldon... but you want me to believe he never followed Aldridge nor Mills. :lol

You’re smoking on dick, retard.

[acoelho1]

Correct me if Im wrong but we lost last game with White starting. Also, alienating Murray who you just gave a boat load of money to is probably not the best course of action.

[RC_Drunkford]

word is a lot of players ain't happy with Pop's rotations and I can't blame them, since that's the main reason this team sucks. So I guess they spoke up, that's why White and Poeltl are starting and we haven't seen a Belinelli. Pop was also complaining about Duncan telling him who to play and Gay was publicly saying Lonnie needs minutes. Hope the old man finally starts to see it

[Chinook]

Nah, the Spurs keep finding themselves in holes because they can't score. I don't care what the offensive rating says. The offense is bad right now. They don't have Green and Leonard and Duncan anymore. They aren't going to hold teams to really low numbers. They have to expect to score well enough to match, and they can't most of the time. The 40-point quarters get all the attention, but the continuous missed long-twos and silly turnovers are the bigger issue in my mind.

[Dverde]

I like Dejounte as a player, but I thought all the pro-spurs posts was more about him sucking up trying to get his contract done. Now the contract is signed he is showing more his true selfish colors.

Pop is the coach. He made the decision.

Jesus, I swear these young dudes emoting everything immediately to social media is just so not Spurs.

It's just time to blow it up. Move whomever needs to be moved to get the right kind of players back in here. And do it soon.

[TheGreatYacht]

Started following them once he got his starting job back lol

Shoutout to the morons that swore he never followed them in the first place, how do y’all pull so many lies out of your asses with RC and Pop constantly in there?

[Ed Helicopter Jones]

Is there any real, or interesting Spurs news, or just this grab-ass BS?




If Murray really unfollowed his team because he was coming off the bench, that's just dumb, especially from a guy that can't run an offense and hasn't proven he belongs yet, not to mention getting paid pretty nice bank to do so. He's getting paid a lot of money to essentially suck.

He's like a kid who got handed the keys to the car, got a ticket, and is pouting because he got grounded...a slap-on-the-wrist grounding, might I add.

For all of his talk about being a leader, he is really still showing his youth.

[Leetonidas]

If he really did unfollow SA after getting benched and then refollowed them after getting the starting spot back then he really is just a giant immature douche. He talks a big game but pretty disappointed in his play this season tbh. Dude has had a whole year off and still can't dribble a basketball

[Slippy]

DJ don't earn his spot. A hampered D white lost it.

Then both PG realize one of them has Bryn Forbes to pass to while the other gets Lonnie Walker. I know who I would want to play with

Funny how pop keeps messing with these 2 at PG but the weakest spot in the SL gets a midget floor spacer. Haha only Pop

[TheGreatYacht]

Here come the Pop suckers on queue ready to deflect his coaching malpractices on another player :lmao Already tried to paint Lonnie as a scrub because craterface told them to...

Murray has been our best player this season when on the court. The outdated old man hurt him more than helped him by treating him like he’s 42yo. He’s the best defender on the team (there is no close second) and has put up good averages the two games he’s played over 30min, 16/7/4.

[Slippy]

One thing Murray did impress me with . Like others point out his best asset is leadership.

When Demar started playing iso basketball to finish the first half. Around the 5min mark, think it was like 3 straight failed possession by Demar on offense. DJ demanded the ball on the next possession and made sure Demar didn't get the ball when trying to set up the offense. That's leadership. Don't think Dwhite has it in him to do the same. DJ starting making more sense.

Wouldn't be surprised if that's why we saw a pouting Demar for the rest of the game.
