Official Brent Forms FG% Tracker Thread

[FkLA]

Will his FG% stay above the 30s? Was at 40.6% entering today's game at MIA.

Jan. 15 - 4/13 from the field
Current FG% - 40.3%



Bonus:
DRPM - -0.47 (81st out of 123 SGs)
DBPM - -3.2
DRTG - 117

[KobesAchilles]

Sure cherry pick field goal percentage. How about official double digit scoring game for Dejounte. Hell we can do 5 point game and he still didn’t make the cut today :lmao

but but he shot 2/4 :cry that’s 50% :cry

What does his shittiness have to do with Formes'? They're both awful.

[r0drig0lac]

DRTG - 117 wtf

[FkLA]

They're not even comparable. The only reason Forms is out there is because he's supposed to be worth a shit on offense. If Murray was as inconsistent on defense as Forms has been on offense no one would like him either.

Good offense beats good defense. It's not like he was getting abused. He's a good defender, that's not even up for debate.

There's also plenty of games when his offense is better than Brent's. You can't ever say that Brent's defense was better than Murray's.

More middling at this point. Still more competent than bottom feeders like the suns, wizards, cavs etctbh

At least Neal was clutch and could take a good defensive charge once in a while. Forms is treated like Danny Green in the Spurs system. I can’t think of a starting shooting guard on the Spurs that Forms has been better than in the last 15 years.

[HarlemHeat37]

What a depressing team. Not even a single young prospect to provide hope(and even if they had one, Pop wouldn't play him as much as he should), while not even being a .500 team:lol

The fuck are you talking about? I don't even talk shit about most players. The only players that I truly can't stand are charity cases/pets like Brent, Marco, and 2016-2019 Wombat. There's no place for favoritism in basketball. Then to top it off they're all horrible defenders. That's my second least favorite type of player--the guy who's a role player and can't stay in front of anybody.

That's why I have to doubt your basketball IQ when Dragic was going off Murray was no where near him and as far as Nunn goes yes he scored on Murray but how many times did Murray have to sag off his man because he was trying to help Forbes? I get it trolling is your thing but this is ridiculous.

[John B]

If his 3pt % goes down to 30’s no way Pop could justify starting this too short, unathletic, no defense, stats padder. No way

There's no way to justify it now. But Pop does it anyway.

I turned on the game tonight and saw Forbes in the starting line up. I thought to myself, I’m not watching this shit, and just changed the channel.

Maybe some other game, but wasn’t in the mood tonight.

I come here later and read the same sad shit about Forbes play, and Walker only getting 8 minutes. Pop is just sucking all the fun out of being a fan.

His last day can’t come soon enough.

Having a complete non-factor on offense is bad for the defense. I don't get why people don't understand that. It's easy to play basketball when all you have to do is play one side of the ball bc Dejounte doesn't even need to be guarded. Playing defense gets opposing players tired. Chasing Tony Parker around got other point guards exhausted by the 4th quarter. Sitting back and doing nothing on defense bc you know your opponent can't do shit isn't tiring at all. Dejounte needs to learn how to play offense to help our overall defense.

DJ has a long way to go on offense but you are also exaggerating your description of him. He isn't a complete non-factor. He's a threat to drive and his midrange has been money as of late. He makes the occasional three too. He's only averaging 1 ppg less than Forms (which is supposed to be Brent's strength) and he doesn't need to be a high volume, low efficiency chucker like that piece of shit to get his points.

Is DJ flawed? Absolutely. But he at least has an NBA body, NBA level athleticism, is already a great defender, and is continuing to make strides on offense. You can live with his growing pains. I can't live with the growing pains of an average joe, little engine that could that was never any good to begin with and will never get any better because of his physical limitations.

Forbes sucks. I only defend him to troll. But I’m not exaggerating at all about Dejounte. He can’t even average 1 made 3 a game and defenders sag off of him. His midrange game is “money” but he’s only taking like 4 midrange shots a game and making 2. He can drive though, except he really can’t. He dribbles too high and can’t do shit against real defense. What does he average like 2 made baskets in the paint a game (if that)? The dude can’t make a wrap around pass to save his life. He can’t do anything more than a basic pass once he does drive and has zero rapport with any of our bigs.

Real progress is if he shoots minimum 4 threes a game and doubles the amount of shots in the paint as well. As a side note, Murray’s lack of offensive game is a reason why Pop feels like he has to play Forbes

[Mugen]

This loser would be a Spur for life if Pop had his way.

Really hoping the old fuck retires right after the season and they can move on from Bryn. But knowing the old man, his last fuck you to the organization is giving that piece of shit a new 4yr contract.

I've said it many times but if you're an actual Spurs fan, you should be hoping Bryn blows out his achilles. It's come to that tbh.

Walker provides hope. I'm not sold on stardom, but with his physical tools and raw skillset, it's at least conceivable.

Any non senile coach would have started him over Forbes long ago.

The fact that two fringe rotation players start for this team, is embarrassing.

Forbes is averaging more minutes per game than Manu did in any of his last 7 years with the Spurs, and more than at least 3 of the seasons Danny Green played on the Spurs.

He's really one of the most important role players in Spurs history, judging by the amount of minutes he's been given by popovich.

When did the NBA start being about work ethic instead of results? I can't get over how ridiculous this whole thing is. There's literally millions of people out there that are gym rats, that dedicate their life to fitness. Yet Brent managed to scam senile Pop into thinking that he's special because he's in the gym lifting all the time. It's ok if you can't stay in front of anyone and shoot 39% as long as you're in the gym. WTF kind of bullshit is that bro.

Give me a couple million and I'll look like a greek god too.

[FkLA]

They couldn’t find a picture more annoying even if they tried. I hate this guy.

The only thing worse than the way he carries himself is his play. Seriously, if you're good you kind of just write it off as confidence. Comes with the territory, etc. But when you absolutely suck and still carry yourself like a superstar it's just annoying.

I also hate when he yells or claps really loudly every time he gets torched on defense. If White does it (and he does all the time) it's like ok, you could've done better and you're disappointed in yourself. I get it. When Brent does it it's just like that's who you are, bro. You're a slow, unathletic midget with t-rex arms. You aren't fooling anyone into thinking you can do better with your claps and yells.

Sometimes you just are not good enough nor will you ever be good enough to do things you are not physically capable of doing. You cant teach speed or height.

I'm not even sure he'd be successful in the league as a bench player, at least not for a real contender.

Are you dumb? Walker IV, Murray & White?

They aren't "elite" prospects but that is a given having drafted all three between 17th - 29th selection. Also, Walker IV has the highest ceiling and could conceivably become an all - star (if he really hits his stride).

[J_Paco]

All hail Bryn! All hail Bryn!

The worst was watching Joe Harris abuse him against the Nets.

No, the worst was seeing Dillon Brooks obliterate him twice in games the team needed to win.

I'm tired of seeing him in the starting lineup or even in the rotation. The guy is a 10th man at best and a towel waver at worst. Can't understand how such a limited upside, small, unathletic player has once again found himself entrenched in the Spurs rotation? Bonner, Blair (once his knees gave out), Neal and now this guy.

[sasaint]

Jay Howard did a weekly show with Pop, some say they were buddies and socialized. Well at least Jay thought so. He and Pop got in a dispute on the show and the NEXT week. HE WAS OUT.

He is the guy who called the Spurs 1999 Chip Run and was Dam good.


https://youtu.be/2fN2XI5yamM

I'm thinking it was a case of When you get into prison you kicked the biggest guys ass in the Yard so nobody else messes with you. Jay was that guy at that time because Dan Cook was on the 18th hole of his career. Everybody in the local media took note and Pop has been untouchable ever since.



Good job! Thanks for pulling that up and sharing it here! You are right. Seems clear enough to me.

[objective]

It was Kevin O'Keefe who got canned for crossing Pop, allegedly. I think it was an opinion column on how they should have kept Vinny Del Negro and he was bounced. That loss of coverage cred could also have cost him the easy money side gig of writing the Spurs previews in each year's Sporting News (or it might have been Street and Smith)

Can’t handle Poop and his midgets any longer just fire him he just doesn’t give a shit anymore

[spurs1990]

Nope,

O'Keeffe wrote ant talked shit about Pop from Bob Hills firing in 1997 until 1999. Jay Howard and Pop got Into Live on AIR where Pop Left the show in the middle. A week later he was gone. Why? Because at the time Clear Channel had a vested interest in the Spurs as % owners. Express news is and was a Hearst Corporation Paper and Pop has no pull with them at all.

O'Keeffe went into Politics with Senator John Cornyn and I took his resignation as a, "well fuck it this asshole won the championship Fuck this Sports shit" except O'Keeffe was SUPER righteous, moral and religious. Which is why he hated Pop who pretends to be. He would have never used language like that.


Go look for an article that says that O'Keeffe was "forced out"... not there. It Never was written.

Thanks for the insight TheDrewShow, as well as your historical posts recently. I knew of only periphery information from this era from tidbits read here and SpursReport before.
Seems the House of Popovich does have an unseemly stench previously concealed by the on-court successes (thank you TD and Manu btw). I believe he would've done very well in the political arena had he chose that path.

As for this thread topic, Bryn Forbes is Popovich's magnum opus as he exits the profession. I know us online fans are a small subset and the most vocal, but I have to believe the greater fanbase will soon come to experience similar disapproval of the HOFer.
