Have you ever heard of Pop and the Spurs doing this in the past? I'm not sure it's their style but I definitely would if I was them.
They have been getting disrespected all week and rightfully so, they deserve the blame for their ty play lately..
Analysts are picking against them in the 1st round, teams are trying to match up with them in the playoffs, nobody is scared of them anymore..
Do you think Pop and the players will use this bulletin board material for motivation, or is this team too soft and gutless, tbh?..

Grizzlies tanked to play SA in 2011 and SA didn't punish them for it. This season is looking like that year all over again unfortunately.
I'm sure they see what's going on, they hear what's being said, they don't live under a rock. That being said, too much of a veteran team to use this as motivation, if you're not motivated to win at this time of year then you get ready for an exit. Manu looked a lot better tonight at least with movement so that's a good sign just needs rhythm shooting and Parker, I don't know about him. He seemed to come on just before the end of the 1st half and then disappeared so who knows if his confidence is wavering. Hopefully the team will pull it together in the playoffs, losing actually matters now.
I keep expecting them to get out of the slump but they're not, so hopefully it comes during the first round otherwise it'll get very ugly.
No bulletin board material is needed. This is the San Antonio Spurs. They've been here before.
Not sure if it's Pop's style like DesignatedT just stated but yeah I would use it. Show them clips of all these s talking bad about them...
I said spurs are the laughingstock of the league right now and ppl here came after me
And now with the signing of Mcgrady, spurs are in danger of becoming an epic laughingstock. I still feel good about our chances vs. Lakers. Spurs in 5 or 6.
We just need our players to find their groove. The team that dismantled the Clippers at LA is unbeatable. If that team shows up, we sweep Lakers, but I highly doubt that team shows up cause Parker and Leonard are beat up.
Grizz were damn good (Zbo's best stretch of his career) and Spurs were very banged up (Duncan and Manu had a broken arm).
Well he wore an ugly ass beard for weeks to send a message so I think he'll use the media as some sort of motivation for the team.
These Lakers are not even in the same league as those Grizzlies.
This is an ultimate lose lose series for the Spurs with no Kobe. They're expected to win. If the Lakers lose they can always claim they didn't have Kobe.
No doubt at all, but I would rather them win it just to say we won it and not have to hear from it again. Kobe is out yes, but this team will still be a pain in our asses, period.
i liked pops beard
still wish he had it everytime i see him
You mean, he literally disappeared, right? Because he never saw the court in the second half, did he?
Spurs dont need bulletin board bull sheet. They remember the last 5 yrs of being close only to lose. Pop I do believe will remind them of that every day. Our chances against the Lakers? Spurs in 5.
The Spurs don't play well under pressure. If they fall behind in the series and face the slightest bit of adversity, they'll fold like a card table.

Blake is shooting 42% 3G this season, no fluke.
SJax?
The real gem in this is that if L.A. loses, it will reinforce Kobe's belief that the team can't win without him shooting the lion's share of the shots. Which he will proceed to do at the end of next season when he comes back, thereby dismantling any synergy they had up to that point.
This is true, but honestly - who gives a rat's ass outside of LA what they will always claim?
This is one of those situations where a win is a win, ugly or not.
Just play your asses off and win the ing thing.
well if they do, they can use this: SI writer's picks

They all have SA beating LA though? They can't use that for first round, thats for sure.
