have you seen anyone showing extra emotion out there on the court ?? nobody shows no fuckin emotion ... did you see blair during his college days? check out youtube how he shows his emotion and now its all on check ...

no emotion = no energy

Pop doesn't send players with emotion/energy to the doghouse.

Who should be the coach instead?

showing emotion is overrated.

Does Duncan get benched cause he doesn't show emotion?

oh yeah thats why evrybody said " when GHILL stole the ball from kobe and he did a windmill hes goin to the doghouse " thats not showboating its having fun .... theyre not having fun out there with all the corporate approach BS that pop wants ....its one thing to be cocky but showing some SWAGGER and emotion is something else

"Everybody" said that?

Was Hill actually put in the doghouse?

Who should coach the team instead of coaches that are available?

now TD is diffrent and hes the poker type player and you know that

Yeah, our four-time NBA Championship-winning coach is what's keeping us from an NBA Title. Give me a break. Pop is a great coach, whether our fans think so or not.

somebody that will let play mahimi alongside TIm wud be a good start and not RIDE Duncan until the wheels fall off

Oh yeah, I keep forgetting that chest pounding, barking, trash-talking screamers win games.

The Pop hatred on this forum at times is so over-the-top it's become unintentionally satirical.

No, you said that players that showed emotion like Hill and Blair did are put in the doghouse by Pop.

Surely you can document their dropoff in minutes after these infractions.

im talikin about FOOLS GOLD

The whole team's morale and energy went straight to the toilet after that thunder game. They really burned themselves out trying to win that game without Timmy and Poop running a shortened rotation.

What's sad is this team was on a huge roll after that monumental laker victory but that wasn't good enough for Pop, he just had to be the hero and and tinker around with a good thing.

And everyone on this board was praising jesus for Poop's decision to hold Duncan out of the thunder game, well you morons got your wish now enjoy the results.

If messing them up equals four NBA Titles and the best record in the NBA since the late 90s, then I'm okay with that.

OP, normally, a team takes on the personality of their floor leader, which just happens to be arguably the most stoic player to ever play the game. Showboating is low-class, so it's easy to see Pop's opinion of that, however, our players show emotion when the situation deems it necessary. I've always seen our players keep a lid on emotion until 4th quarter heroics are needed. They know it's a 48 minute game and an 82 game season, so why get worked up in the first half? We have a very emotional team, but I highly doubt they throw their pabst blue ribbon at the TV as you do.

cant wait for POP to play FINLEY again when he comes back for maybe i dunno 30 mins a night hahahah

well see people then maybe ill check back on you guys how ull feel by that time

Why do you think POOP's coaching extension coincidentally runs exactly through Duncan's?

Could it be because... *gasp* he knows he would be exposed for the fraud he is trying to coach a Duncan-less team once TD rides off into the sunset?

Listen PARE, I recommend you read what you post first before questioning other peoples reading comprehension. It will help you in future discussions.

Just some helpful advice, take it as you will.

And as to 'my' Pop messing up the Spurs; well as I said: It's almost unintentionally satirical how overwrought some posters get.

Pop is by no means a perfect coach (no coach is), but he is one of the best in the league and in league history. And if your criticism is "he no like players who show emotion"...well. Ok then.

If the other team is big and were playing small ball then yes I'm pissed, but if the other team is one big and 4 guards, then no I'm not.

Everything was falling for the Bobcats and nothing for the Spurs, that and turnovers is why the game was lost. I mean the Spurs were 3 of 24 from the 3 point line. Even their towel boy had 6 points... Sheesh, Pop can coach his ass off but if the shots don't fall in they are going to lose.

I don't care if Pop doesn't let his players show emotions, but what I am worried about is the lack of urgency this team shows when playing average teams which only ends up in a letdown.

Finley's role this year before the injury had greatly been reduced, so again, I don't see your point.

im suggesting that we use the tools we have as a team and let the other teams worry about our strengths we let the other team adjust to us than us adjusting to them all the time which then throws to waste all the off season moves we did .... i mean ratliff that dude even if plays 5 mins or 3mins he almost always gets 1 block and it starts our offense most often than not ... teams know that we arent athletic and we play small all the time .... time to change that because we have the talent to do so

Some newbs bitch about being treated unfairly becase they are new on a forum. This thread is one of those reasons. Newbs are fucking idiots.

This game was all on the players, not the coach.

it all goes back to POP being a FOOL by wasting the GOLDEN line up that we have ....

So it was the players' fault Pop inexplicably benched Duncan and used an 8 man rotation in a tough OT game against the thunder with no shotblockers or rebounders that they looked exhausted against the bobcats even on a night of rest?

Poor Antonio got left out to dry as the only interior presence in that game, and now all of a sudden he's hurt and can't play more than 3 minutes.. I suppose that's his fault too..

It's pop's fault McDyess injured himself (allegedly we don't know if he is or not) on a errant pass from Manu?

He didn't hurt his legs, if he hut anything its his shoulder.

That doesn't get hurt from getting run ragged of all of 20 some odd minutes the other night.

Yes... Exactly what Im saying.

Last I fucking checked, Basketball was a fucking team game. Relying on one player (ie. Duncan) isnt going to be good for championships. Someone needs to step up besides him. Pop was trying to force that and see who he has that will do it.

You dont run Duncan into the ground at this point. Just make the playoffs.

If your a supposed "Spurs fan" you would know this by now you fucktard. Make the playoffs healthy. Thats it. Fuck the regular season and positioning. Playoffs are what count.

He was hung out to dry by Popovich as the only interior guy holding up the fort for stretches of that game. I don't care if it was only 5 minutes, that is utter bullshit.

Funny how the very next game he can only go for 3 minutes. I'm sure you'll claim its a coincidence. Shit happens, right?

Regular season is regular season. It counts in the playoffs. Not now.

In your analogy, you dont set the house on fire to bring up the heat unless its a last option. That last option is the playoffs.

So you don't know he's hurt your just pulling that out of your ass, right?

McDyess did just fine too as the only interior guy.

He had 13 and 9 in 25 minutes.

I'll take that every freaking night if thats what he brought.

:lmao, dude, you're a joke.

sure but the way POP is coaching we aint goin far in the playoffs ....and regular season is wer you make chemistry for the championship run so in hindsight regular season is still as important as winning the ring

You're saying Dice can't handle a 25 minute game.

Nice.

You dont run Duncan into the ground at this point. Just make the playoffs.

If your a supposed "Spurs fan" you would know this by now you fucktard. Make the playoffs healthy. Thats it. Fuck the regular season and positioning. Playoffs are what count.

So Duncan plays only his THIRD 40 minute game all year long, and all of a sudden we "need other guys to step up?". Please.... that's nonsense. We have Parker, Ginobili, and Jefferson plus a good supporting cast. That's the biggest bunch of baloney I've read yet tonight.

You need to close your computer and go to bed.

You are blaming the loss on Pop? Figures. The coach is always the scapegoat when the team can't put the ball into the basket and can't make shots.
