funny it seems pretty quiet from the Popologist crowd...you know EricB, Chumpdump and the lot....where are they? shouldnt they all be here putting us in our places, saying that its only another fluke and that Mahinmi and Malik are just scrubs and that the great 4-rings genius pop is smarter than all of us and that Bonner is still the best and that mahinmi is worthless compared to him etc....
strangely quiet from the Popologists, id like to hear their opinion about what ensued tonight.
with that starting line up? poopoo is officially re ed. even if he sees hairston n mahinmi playing way better than fins and the bogners(bogan n bonner), i have a feeling poopoo is still stuborn to play his beloved fin and bogners the next game against phoenix.
really really sad year for spurs and duncan.
I knew we were in trouble when I saw Finley in the starting line-up. OMG.
I'm here.
Fat lips is a sucker and chumpdumper an ass kisser
They are waiting for timvp's opinion so they have theirs....
I am very interested in what happens Sunday, an important day game on nat tv.
Pop's obvious move to salvage any type of success to this season even if its just developing young talant is staring him in the face:
NO MORE BFB, MORE IAN AND MALIK.
Can't wait to see how you respond pop...can't wait
Should they actually get minutes, the first time one of them has an inevitable bad game or turns the ball over, the pologs will be back.
Nice that we have garbage guys Pop can throw there. If anybody thinks they are saviours are ridiculous.
They are all at their Popped shrines, fervently praying for divine intervention and thinking up reasons they can use that Bogans and Finley aren't really all that bad.
Chumpdumper's secretly hoping Malik and Ian both get sent back to the Toros so he actually has something decent to watch again.
Popovich sucks. He owes all his career wins to riding Duncans coattails. Now that he actually needs to make some real coaching decisions the Spurs are in sh!t.. Wasn't it him who said that after the offseason signings they got that he should be fired if they didn't win it all this year? Well... Fire the Bas already!!!
Hmm just makes me think, I guess Bowen and Oberto were just THAT AWSOME and far from old and washed-up huh??? Or is Popovich just an F'n goof? Oh and all that Tony Parker injured/sick crap is probably his excuse to lose games and not have his job be put in jeopardy for being such a re ed coach.

No, what's ridiculous is thinking Keith Bogans and Michael Finley are saviours. If Hairston and Mahinmi can get minutes, contribute, and help salvage this season, then saviours is exactly what they are.
I couldn't believe when I saw his old-ass trotting out there with the starting lineup. It was then I declared that the coach has officially lost it. I don't care how awful RJ is playing, there's no way Finley plays ahead of him.
WTF? He did what you wanted, played the kids, and WE LOST.
They are there. I know they are! However they are a bit low on material to use right now.
They will be here the moment Malik, and or Ian make 1 little mistake. I guarantee it.
They didn't lose because of the kids. They lost because the starters and regular rotation veteran players sucked. HAd it not been for the efforts of Blair, Ian, Hairston, RJ, Hill and Mason, that game would've easily been a 20-pt+ blowout. Anyone who watched the game could see that these guys clawed their way back in and made the game compe ive.
It's also ridiculous to think that the Spurs are going to make any kind of deep playoff run with this roster. This year is lost. May as well see what you have at the end of the bench.
This just might be the first time we have seen Pop with not a good team. Half ass coaching just doesn't cut it when you don't have the luxury of having certain players in their prime.
I wonder how man rings he would have had, had Spurs not been able to get TD in the draft and been lucky with Manu, Tony, and bowen. I guess we will never really know. However watching this season especially, makes one wonder.
+1
Guaranteed.
To be fair, had TD not been around, the Spurs wouldn't have a single ring no matter who the coach was.
However, I still maintain that Pop getting checkmated by Avery in 2006 could have been easily avoided if he didn't have his head up his ass.
No one is saying that? Are you blind? Of course they're not saviors, but this team is going nowhere with a 10 man rotation with Bogans, Finley, and Bonner getting big minutes.
Might as well give them more PT and develop their talent for next season!
This.
But there are several problems with this group:
1. they are young
2. they are athletic
3. they are not small enough
4. see 1.
Pop made a good decision sticking with the former Toros on the court to finish the game. Unfortunately the veterans sucked (Duncan has looked frustrated since the all star game), Parker was injured, and then Blair and Hill got fouled out in the 4th.
Gotta like the young guys effort, it'll be interesting to see if thats earned them more consideration since energy and hustle have been lacking all season. You'd think being 7th in the standings would be enough motivation but
This is stupid logic, how many Championships has Phil won without an All-Time Top 11 Player & great role players? Riley? Red?
-------------
And you guys are ing idiots if you think Ian and Malik are the saviors. If Tony, Tim, Manu don't play at an All-Star level (at the same time) you're not going to do much in the post-season. Playing Ian and Malik might get you some more regular season wins but it'll be false hope. Role players are role players for a reason, they're not going to take over a game when hits the fan.
