Why play either of them when you can play RJ or mason at Power Forward? Gosh, what a dullard you are! Lulz
not saying either one is a SAVIOUR as some of you like to say sarcastically- but why, for the love of god, does pop REFUSE to play either?
all last game it was an effing layup drill for houston whilst 2 6-11 shotblockers sat and watched from the bench. again. just like with Utah freaking kirilinko was dunking left and right and 6-9 boozer was raping us inside while 2 6-11 shotblockers sat and watched from the bench.
reminds me of last season while barea was raping jaque vaughn time after time whilst Hill sat and watched the entire series.

I prefer Ginobili at PF myself. There's your help in the paint Timmy!
I prefer paker having to guard kirilink down low.that was a great match up.
Because they're not any good. Dice may suck, but he's still better than Ratliff or Ian.
How about we trade for Earl Boykins and play him at PF? A 5'6" PF should work well in Pop's system!![]()
Guys, I prefer George Hill at PF. He did say he welcomes any challenge to guard anyone.
And how do you know when neither get playing time? I can understand why Pop doesn't play ratliff a lot. He's old and injury prone. But I do not understand why Pop voluntarily plays small ball when he has someone on the bench who has shown he can affect shots.
akin to this we "had" to offer nothing to Bowen.
Actually, IIRC, the only game we did not go small so far has been against NJ. Which I think it's the only game Ian has taken part of.
Yeah and he SUCKED! Oh wait...
people say this but the rare moments when Ratliff plays he ALWAYS stuff she out of at least one person, he is a proven deterrent to little guards penetrating, i understand he needs to play limited minutes but when he does play he IS effective at what we need-defending the rim.
and i dont care how many rookie mistakes he makes- id still rather work in the 6-11 mahinmi defending the paint than to try to play effing sub-6-7 guys as 'power forwards'.
I think a fair amount of spurs fans feel this way. But it's not gonna happen.
I don't think many are against giving Ian a few minutes to test what hes made of. The first game he played he was wonderful, the next he was a little too nervous. If he can find his comfort zone he may be useful in spot minutes.
Pop is turning into Don Nelson before our very eyes.
Well . . . I can think of one . . .

Haha as I was coming back into this thread I thought of that...
I should say: I don't think many Spurs fans are against playing Ian.
It really doesn't matter guys... I was ing about going small since the season started and then at some point you realize it's not going to stop happening. It's been half a season and Pop has been preparing this team to play this way. We're not making a 180 degree (or as JKidd would say, 360 degree) change now. We're going to war with small ball, and if you're a person of faith, pray it works...
Come on guys . . .
Don't you realize that MICHAEL FINLEY is close to returning?
FINLEY AT THE FOUR . . . COMING SOON!
Pop's just a little thrown and off his game after losing Fin for an extended period of time.
No need to worry people, Fin and his power-forwardness will be back any day now.![]()
I pity the fool who dares question the church of POP! remember it is he who has 4 les and not us....pure sarcasm of course..weebo is correct Pop is morphing into Don Nelson and it's so sad..
Pop's just biding his time until Finley's healthy enough to come back to play the 4.
So, you think Mason, RJ or Manu are better at PF than Ian or Theo. Put the pipe down and slowly walk away.
So where do you think we will draft in the lottery?
