2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
They tried hard and battled but they were over matched. Overall they did decent given all the circumstances of this year.

Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
:lmao This was easily one of my least liked Spurs teams of all time tbh....
They had two multi-time all stars, countless opportunities including tonight, and they shit the bed each and everytime or didn't start caring until it was already over....
The only good thing about the season was Derrick and he ended up shitting the bed hard after the Nuggets adjusted to him...

Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
Yes they had two all stars but the rest of the team is trash besides Derrick.

Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead

Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
Most unlikeable spurs team

Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
Wasted year...should have tanked...this roster deserves nothing but boos...

Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
I didn't like this Spurs team at all. All year long, I kept saying to timvp that they were just horrible and I didn't enjoy watching them.
That being said, White has a great future. Even though I think he's a little fragile, and obviously doesn't know how to adjust his game yet when defenses adjust on him. It will be interesting to see the team with both White and Murray healthy next year.
Also, I was pleasantly surprised by Forbes in the playoffs. I know, I know ... you guys hate him. :rolleyes But, he actually showed up for the playoffs. He didn't wilt. And that's admirable.

Ditto about White. It was nice seeing him play well, when he did.
Forbes earned his money, and did more than ever should have been expected of him.
It was good to see Poeltl playing well.
I agree about the team overall. They were never much fun to watch.

Oh, I forgot about Poeltl. He was a bright spot too.
Now, if they can just get rid of LMA, DDR, Patty and Bellinelli, the team might be fun to watch. :lol

It's not about Denver "adjusting" to White. White just isn't a spot up player. He isn't a good enough Shooter to be that. He's a pretty damn good playmaker though. If we could get rid of no-future having DeMar DeRozan and see what we have in White as a premier ball-handler, we would have a succesfull off season. Of course it isn't going to happen.

Agreed.

Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
Results wise it was a success. But PATFO had a built in excuse with Kawhi. Now? They don’t have the “we were on our heels” excuse. They had a year to evaluate and plan. They need to do work this off season. They have picks. They know who they have in LMA & Derozan. Time to plan.
While the overall results were a success this team has insanely low lows. By far the most low floor team in 20 years for SA.

DeRozan will at worst see out his contract with the Spurs. There's zero chance Pop would trade the franchise away and then follow it up by trading away his return asset the following season. It would be humiliating.

Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
Nothing to appreciate. Atleast if we tanked, we could be appreciating a lottery pick.
-
Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
Not a whole lot to appreciate to be honest. That loss was exactly how the spurs season went. They make give you hope, only to let you down because of dumb shit. Also, fuck pop, fuck patty, fuck 50 million, fuck frogging patty, fuck patty and his coffee gang idea, fuck patty’s leadership.
Waiting to see who melts down after FO drafts another 6’1-6’5 player.

Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
Awful season
Even setting aside the shame of not having the balls to stand up to Kawhi and taking a shit deal to 'compete' ...
I sports-hate more players on this team than any team in a long time.
Having to see the Mills-Forbes duo for so much at the beginning of the year, having to see the joke of Cunningham, having to see bum Pau on the roster and know his contract would eat up space next year, trash can Marco, depressed DeRozan, the Murray injury, knowing all along that Walker would get zero chance, Gay crumbling into a worse phase of his career, ...
Only Derek White surpassed expectations, but it was a hollow victory knowing that something would happen to screw it up with him.
Even when there were bad things going on, there were bright spots in the past that still outshone the bad. Now there's almost nothing, they're not even fun to watch. They'll compete long enough to not have a lottery pick until Murray Poeltl and White are on their second contracts and they won't have the luxury of cheap talent anymore.
That lower bowl will be even more barren next year, impossible as it may sound. Should be some real cheap prices if you guys want to see Mills and Marco in person.

Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
Spurs were still the team I liked the most. It couldn't have been all bad.

Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
Remember the begin of the season! A Rollercoaster with though 7 game first PO loss to the end!!! All in all,.....it was OK
-
Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
Fuck this team, a bunch of scrubs led by losers like LMA, Demar, and Pop.

there is nothing to work on. They can sign 1-2 Players with the MLE and they won't even be top tier 3-and-D wings. They can draft well and fill the rest out with G-Leaguers/Minimum contracts. Then you can see the same team next year

Re: 2019 Spurs Appreciation Thead
Proud of my Spurs! Disappointed yes I am! They were so close to get to next round! Hell they weren’t expected to get to the playoffs w/all of the injuries/changes! They need to upgrade the roster! For all of the haters hating on LMA/DDR & wanting them gone, ok who are we going to get? No one wants to come here you idiotic morons w/BS lies Kawhi spread about this organization you damn morons! Geez the stupidity of some! Faithless fans turning on their team! I bleed Silver & Black win or lose! They’re my team! We are nowhere w/o LMA you dumb morons!
