IV Not Guarding The Best Defender In The 4th / Down The Stretch

[Spurtacular]

Corey Booker having free range against Bellinelli to take the lead with under 3 minutes?

IV not even in the game as a 17 pt lead evaporates in the 4th?

There is no excuse for this sh** coaching.

Edit: Guarding best player in title. Mod please change.

Forbes and Belli playing out the final 2 minutes.

Lonnie had his chance. Didn't play well

[Genovaswitness]

it's comical at this point

[Spurtacular]

Mrray, IV, White all in on last play. That's what it should have been all along.

Poetl and player x not in for the two divas though.

[UZER]

Duh, Walker is learning to be Bruce Bowen from the bench.

Road win on a b2b
Not pretty, but, better than a L

Sad.
letting forbes marco plus demar in the last 2 minutes means a feast for the opposing team. DW DJ DDR or IV for defense

Gregg is thinking he'll trade sure 2's for possible pretty threes?

Anyone knows you put in good defense down the stretch especially.

[Sugus]

The fact that Pop put all 3 young guards on the court for the last possession is especially irritating. If he at least pretended not to know which are the best defensive players/lineups, we could attribute it to simple senility; but the fact that he goes with the best defense to close out games (just like the times he's put DJ/White as well to close out) means he understands the benefit they bring to the table, and yet chooses to play his pets over the core.

And then our lead evaporates while motherfucking Marco plays the 4. Forbes and him try and choke up the game. Disgusting tbh

Anyone have ESPN insider access? If the Spurs trade away Lonnie, I hope the franchise crumbles to the ground.

[Dex]

I think you should make a new thread every time Pop does something you don't agree with.

Oh wait...

Lonnie Walker IV (http://www.espn.com/nba/player/_/id/4277890/lonnie-walker-iv) | San Antonio Spurs (https://www.espn.com/nba/team/_/name/sa/san-antonio-spurs)


One of my favorite non-lottery prospects from the 2018 NBA draft, the 21-year-old has had an up-and-down couple of seasons under head coach Gregg Popovich. Aside from a 28-point outburst in a win over the Rockets in December, Walker's highlights have been sparse through 34 games this season -- after spending the majority of his rookie campaign in the G League, which is becoming standard protocol for Spurs rookies.Popovich appreciates smart offense and intense defense from his non-stars, and Walker's biggest questions entering the league were decision-making and defensive consistency. It is no surprise that the pairing hasn't always been a match.These circumstances are what a deadline shopper should be looking for, as a young, rebuilding team ready to move a win-now veteran could help push the Spurs into the playoff mix while landing a steal in Walker. So if the Spurs decide to become deadline buyers, Walker should be an interesting piece given his athletic profile and shot-creating potential. On a young team with more freedom and the goal of development through reps, Walker could flash his scoring instincts and physical gifts.Most effective playing off others out of catch-and-shoot and closeout situations right now, Walker has shown brief glimpses of shot-creation potential out of ball screens. His ability to rise up off the dribble at will could be the table setter for a dynamic pick-and-roll attack, should Walker develop more feel and finesse around the rim as a finisher. He has the tools to check either guard spot in a pinch, flourish in transition and score at all three levels.The Spurs' front office likely remains high on the former first-round pick, but should San Antonio get aggressive at the deadline, Walker is the first name I'd target on that roster."

All the young guys are untouchable. Spurs have plenty of players who are garbage and should get traded. Walker, Murray and White aren't those

:lol DDR's attempt at a Manu like bounce pass... And Forbes just kept the laughs coming
