I'm glad we didn't make any major moves over the off-season

I'm still waiting on who all these magical young guys are and where they were.

If we're going to keep looking like ass then at least start giving Ime more burn to figure out if he's really going to be the Bowen replacement (and given old man Bruce some time to rest). Give Richardson more run as well, time to see what he has (can't be any worse than what we're getting out of Finley and Barry.

Props to the Spurs front office for being so damn content this off-season. Can't wait for that Terry Porter playoff moment this April. My bet is it comes from Michael Finley. He is done, he's looking like a puss, and for some stupid ass reason Pop worships the guy and looks the other way with his suck play (probably because he came at such a deep discount to the Spurs).

Frustrating to watch, we all called it over the summer. And I have to listen to piece of shit Mavs fans every day at work.

People should settle down. The season is only done half way. There's alot of positive things that can happen. The only way we can have a final conclusion on the rightness (or erronousness) of FO decisions is to wait for the seasons end. People who jump to the blame game this ealry is foolish and without consideration of things. So please be more patient and observe.

So what are we paying Pop and RC to do? Pick their noses? I'm pretty sure that's for them to figure out.

You need names? Howabout Scola? Doing better than any big on this team not named Tim. Sure would like having him around to throw the ball into in the post when Tim's out...

Or letting Spanoulis go back to Greece for cap space. Yep, that worked out well, now we're scraping the bottom of the barrel to find another point guard with Tony out.

The Spurs front office has been creative in the use of trades, FA, etc. to fill roster holes in the past, and they could have done it again if they would have given a damn.

Instead, they bought into the idea that because they cruised through the playoffs last year (which is a lot easier to do when you have GS around to punk the Mavs) they didn't need to make any changes other than cherry picking Udoka.

And now that decision has come home to roost. All so Holt could pull down an extra 5 million over the other 20 million or so he probably made last year. Fucking awesome.

And it's not just about this past summer, we have been talking about the glut of 'veterans' on this team for a good 2-3 years now, knowing what was coming, and they have done nothing to address it.

youngsters Mahinmi + Splitter = nothing?

How many of them are getting minutes for us right now? Mahinmi is getting a free plane ride on the RRT, and Splitter isn't even in the same zip code.
