SCdac Ever since the 2006 semi WCF it feels like the Spurs lineup has been way too dictated by the opposition's lineup. If it wasn't for Oberto's savvy game and good hands, Horry still being contracted, and Bonner's inexperience, who knows if Matt would have gotten more playing time in 2007, with the way Pop & Co. think his skill set at PF is so important. I would like to see the Spurs get away from finding a Robert Horry replacement, and get back to dominating the boards and controlling the paint. Every minute that Duncan plays with Bonner, I feel like we're asking too much from both of them. Duncan + Blair just makes sense if we're talking about fortifying our strengths.
Yep, Pops marriage to Finley definitely was the start of the Spurs downfall.
Well we got to see Blair start next to Timmy Dunkar vs the Clippers last night.
That's a start. Lets see if Lord Poppycock can do it again.

Or is it Lord Poppycock at his finest?
b. Why does Blair seldom play alongside Timmy Dunkar? Was not ST happy to see Dunkan finally get some rebounding help from the front line? (Other then Pops power forwards of choice Matt Bonner and Mike Finley.)

A small blurb from Lord Poppycock in Jeff McDs article today:
Role revision: Popovich says he hasn't abandoned the idea of using rookie DeJuan Blair in the starting lineup. Blair, 6-foot-7, started two games at center in early November.
“It was too early, and he wasn't ready for that,” Popovich said. “We've been giving him more and more minutes as we go, so it's a possibility going forward.”
Aka as extreme insecurity. What a bunch of abusive crap. So it worked with Tony Parker 8 years ago. Maybe Parker was a party boy and needed it. Has not worked with ANYONE else since.
Lets dream Popped will accept some therapy before he further runs the wheels off the latter stages of the Dunkan-GNob-Parker era.

Dear Fabbs,
Would you please consider stopping the excessive misspell-nickname shenanigans?
It's really hard to read your posts; let alone take you seriously. You'd like us to take you seriously, right? Well, everyone can have their own opinion but let's try to keep someone's identification down to one name, one nickname? ....especially since it should be considered bad taste to slander your own team members/coach. Slanderous puns are something that lame Lakers fans try to use when they can't find a legitimate reason to say "Spurs<Lakers"...you know, Popazit, Spurm, Boner, Manure, etc.
When Fakers fans do that crap you can see right through it and say, "Man, it must suck being a Lakers fan...nothing better to do than try to annoy Spurs fans...how pathetic."
When supposed Spurs fans mock their own team it's despicable. It's so not cool. It's so pointless and totally New York Knicks. Spurs fans are better than that. If you really need to stoop that low then maybe it's time to find another team. ...unless you WANT to be known as that ignoramus who knows so little about basketball that he spends more time mocking his team than he does CHEER them? ? ? ? ?

I'm still waiting on that list of 20 he was supposed to come up with about two months ago.

Re: Why are Blairs minutes limited?
Foul trouble coupled with defensive mistakes.
