suicide truth bomb right here :tu

The slurpers claiming 4-seed and 50+ wins before the season will be the the same ones after the season claiming no coach could have gotten this team to the playoffs...

Yeah I think R.C needs to a water to wine miracle to save his job.

Not RC. Pop is his boss. RC is not the guy ultimately responsible.

Crater Face's job isn't in danger. The Trump hating liberal media will make sure of it. Det system baby

I mean you read this shit and it makes you wonder why this roster was built this way when he fucking knows :lol

"Now you look at a stat sheet after a game and the first thing you look at is the threes. If you made threes and the other team didn't, you win. You don't even look at the rebounds or the turnovers or how much transition D was involved. You don't even care. That's how much an impact the three-point shot has and it's evidenced by how everybody plays." Gregg Popovich

"The inside game is kaputski," Popovich explained without helping with the spelling.

"You've got to have downhill players, you've got to have people that can penetrate and kick, you've got to have people who can switch, you've got to have big guys who can play little guys," he said.

"These days there's such an emphasis on the three because it's proven to be analytically correct," Popovich Monday offered with what appeared to be a sneer. "Now you look at a stat sheet after a game and the first thing you look at is the threes. If you made threes and the other team didn't, you win. You don't even look at the rebounds or the turnovers or how much transition D was involved. You don't even care. That's how much an impact the three-point shot has and it's evidenced by how everybody plays."

"I hate it, but I always have," Popovich said even as he's adjusted over the years. "I've hated the three for 20 years. That's why I make a joke all the time (and say) if we're going to make it a different game, let's have a four-point play. Because if everybody likes the three, they'll really like the four. People will jump out of their seats if you have a five-point play. It will be great. There's no basketball anymore, there's no beauty in it. It's pretty boring. But it is what it is and you need to work with it."

mills is a "team leader". gasol has a broken foot. white is a 3rd string PG

I think they will wait to see how the team looks with Loonie and Pau back into the rotation. In the meantime they will key the chips land where they fall when it comes to the draft.

They'll open a 2nd Whataburger on the AT&T Center to calm down the fans, tbh...

Manu wants no part of this mess, he would've stuck around otherwise, IMO.

Pau may be done and we know pop wont unleash lw4

It's kind of funny how the Spurs and Heat are in such a similar place with their old legends at the top burning their respective franchises down before they retire:lol

It’s sad that at this point I’m hoping for losses every game so it lights a fire under the FO’s asses to do something.
Obviously something needs to be done. We need more talent

I sort of agree with Pop on how the three point shot has ruined the game, but I also think he overstates it here for dramatic effect. Milwaukee has figured out a way to play to Giannis's strength (attacking the basket) and still shoot threes. Golden State relies on Draymond Green to do all the things other than shooting threes. Toronto has Siakam and Ibaka in the starting line up, neither good three point shooters. I think what the rest of the NBA has caught up on is that the three point shot isn't a novelty-- it's a shot that makes objective sense when it comes to scoring. Larry Bird was considered the best three point shooter of his day, but never averaged more than 3.3 attempts per game. In today's NBA, Bird's coach would would chastise him for not shooting more threes.

How can we make changes? We can’t make trades because no one wants anyone on this team lol
