    Is this loss the nail in the coffin? Does this loss drastically change the mindset of Pop and the team? Or do they just keeping going on with their "stone cutter" mantra?

    If this doesn't force Pop's hand into a trade...nothing will.

    i think we're just gonna ride it out with what we got.

    A big trade wont do anything. Adding another player will further hinder the chemistry and Pop has already said the chemistry isn't good this year.

    You would think with Holt opening the wallet just so the Spurs could have a chance at the le would mean he's shouting at management for a trade of some sort because even Ray Charles can see the Spurs now have no shot at a le.

    I would think the only reason a trade wouldn't happen is if Pop was assuring Holt and company that this team just needs time.

    "The Lakers were obviously a little shorthanded and played mentally tougher than we did and physically tougher than we did," Spurs coach Gregg Popovich said. "Don't ask me why."

    LOL Pop said that Lakers were a little short handed? Kobe and Bynem is a little? The Old Man has completely lost touch of reality.

    I'd like to know what Pop and RC have learned from this RJ experiment. They've been so right about most other decisions, I imagine they're probably more shocked than we are that they actually made the biggest FA mistake over the offseason.

    We're going to lose the next game by 20+ and THAT'S where you'll see the real fireworks start.

    Call me all you want, but I'm really hoping Billups or (Melo) put 50 on us along with a 25-30+ blowout. Then after the RT, no one shows up at the AT&T Center. That could really start some fireworks

    I'm taking a wait-and-see approach. If they win the rest of the trip and go on a 10 game W streak, then what does this board say?

    So...

    At least they'll have a chance to turn this thing around
    instead of ruining the rest of the season

    Winning 10 in a row would not change anything. This team has zero chance of beating the Lakers, Nuggets, or Jazz in the playoffs. They would be underdogs to the rest of the playoff teams.

    If getting blown out makes the Spurs think of trading for a decent center then bring them on. A combination of Ian, Mason, Bonner, and Finley's expiring contracts should be able to land a decent big.

    Are you kidding? Did you have to even ask this question? The Spurs are nothing more than a one trick pony. The Spurs learn nothing from game to game. They go out and make the same damn mistakes every single game. It has become painfully obvious that TD and Manu can no longer carry this team, RJ is a complete failure at everything he does., and the team defense is a joke. As of right now, they will have to fight tooth and nail just to make thew playoffs. They have gone from a contender to a pretender in less than three months.
