Put Samanic in for god sake !
Let's get it boys.
Put Samanic in for god sake !
If the blow out continues, you better be making every single game thread.
it wasn't me tbh...it was melissa
but typically and in days past, if you won with a thread you made, you did it again...
With 7 players missing in Detroit, a win wouldn’t be a surprise.
maybe im am amuseddaysleepers huck.. and i am the angel of darkness to the other team :o
Hopefully both of Forbes' ACLS explode during this game and he has to be put down.
fvckkkk lol bro he ain't that bad for this team... like others have realized if you can't take his spot then you probably don't deserve to play lol

You get it girl...
God bless you Bill and God bless America. Thank you.
it's listed under the Detroit LP channel on my local cable and LP is free right now
Of course sometimes it's listed and doesn't happen- pre-season is weird
Maybe Samanic needs to do something that actually proves he is good at basketball.
We've been giving this guy a pass for two years now..."he just needs more minutes". There may be a legit reason he isn't getting more minutes.
Prove me wrong, Luka.
He had a decent run last year culminating with him having a strong game against Randle. Then the old man benched his ass as soon as that nowhere team was healthy again.
You can say he sucks and he probably does but he hasn't had even close to a fair shake when it comes to the coaching staff. He's probably just not kissing Pop's ass in practice like loser Forbes is tbh.
Yes, because I'm sure Pop is the problem this young player isn't progressing, and not Luka's complete lack of progress and/or dominance.
You can call me a sniffer all you want...but sometimes guys just don't make it. It looks bad for PATFO if they wasted a 19th pick on a bust, but I also don't think the answer is just GIVE HIM MINUTES and he is magically going to transform.
If he isn't a good player, he isn't a good player...and so far, I'm not impressed even throughout the very brief flashes he has shown. Dude has spent more time lollygagging around on an NBA court than he has actually making an impact.
KJ came in and proved he needs minutes right away. Jones came in and proved he needs minutes right away. Primo seems to be on the same path. What has Luka been doing during all of this?
As I mentioned before, I think this would be a good opportunity to see if Pop has other ideas the rotation at this time. Monday could've been his first attempt, but you'd think guys like Vassell might get chances to start or Young will get burn if the team isn't dead set on moving him. Unlike last year, there are enough pre-season games to give guys developmental minutes. Obviously with so much turnover, getting real game minutes with the new rotation matters, but just like with Eubanks/Landale, there are theoretically compe ions elsewhere on the roster that should be resolved too.
Also does anyone think Samanic might be the Spurs' play for the other two-way spot? I can totally imagine the Spurs not wanting to pay him $4 Million or whatever next year but being down with keeping control of him for another year. Sam would clear a bit more money this year by signing rather than being traded, so it's not horrible for him, but being bound by RFA status doesn't feel great either. It'd be interesting.
I don't think the old man is main problem or even lion's share of the problem when it comes to Luka tbh. Just pointing out that Samanic has shown flashes when he's gotten minutes. He seems to be the type of player that takes a while to get his rhythm before he starts making an impact...just an observation. I would think the team would try their best to put him in a position to succeed considering the draft capital they invested in him and his skillset but maybe it isn't a priority...
Maybe he's not good in practice or it's a character thing....why that matters more than pure talent to a rudderless organization starved of impact players is a different debate
You also mention Jones like he's a lock to get some rotation minutes this year. When in all likelihood, he'll be glued to the bench behind that POS Bryn.
The old man has had garbage rotations for a long, long time now. Maybe Samanic truly does suck but PATFO haven't really done much to help the kid out IMO.
Luka's biggest problem is he seems like an en led pussy. appears Pop knows it too. Doesn't seem like he has put the work in and doesnt seem like he really seizes the opportunities he's given. sure he's show flashes, but every NBA scrub shows flashes at some point. i just dont think he has the motor or desire and he probably thinks he's being treated unfairly when in reality he's soft as baby and makes incredibly stupid plays every time hes on the court. imo
Are there going to be any links? Only staying up to 2:00 AM if there are links. (And popcorn and maybe whiskey).
I'm sure there will be. it's on the Spurs app again (seriously Spurs, put this on the website instead), and I think Detroit has a local broadcast on Ballys. I'm sure someone on the Spurs reddit will post a stream link in their game thread, i'll post a link to it if no one else has by then
Thanks man!![]()
Half of the league is self en led pussies. Not a big Luka fan, but I also don’t think he is a scrub either. Just a long term project, but at a certain point you have to let him go or play him. That point seems to be this year IMO.
Link?
