    With the big 3 gone, Pop’s schtick may be wearing thin on everyone.

    "There's only been a couple of people, maybe in a long time, that have been able to say something to Pop and him agreeing with them."
    just saying what we have all known...combine the exodus of his ballsier and more experienced assistants, new ownership group that idolizes him, he's got no one to really challenge his ass and who's gonna stay up late at night sweating over this squad... a squad of losers like derozen, lamarsha and rudy gay...so he's just coasting man. and its cool but the bertans thing and the way it was handled is a lowkey scandal that just gets lost bc of the larger kawhi and morris issue. he's starting to harm the organization, the way players view it and our likelihood of attracting free agents.

    "With the Wizards, it's more of a democracy. You can have your opinions and you feel safe that nothing is going to happen that if you're wrong"
    damn, ain't that the truth. Everyone is afraid that of what will happen to them for speaking out.

    No wonder yes-men like Mills and Forbes get consistent minutes no matter how they play. Meanwhile Murray, White, and Walker have to always walk a tightrope.

    When he was in the Spurs I remember reading an article from a Serbian fan who shared an interview Davis did for his local media in Europe. Davis was clearly disgusted and unhappy about his constant benchings and his lack of regular play time. I remember there was a season the Spurs had no healthy forwards avialable to play and Pop instead chose to play Forbes 35 minutes. It was before he became a regular starter, meanwhile Bertans rode the pine. AT that moment I didn't even understand what the heck Pop was doing and I was disgusted. Little did I know, Forbes would become a Pop favorite and a regular starter while Davis came off the bench and sometimes not even that.

    I knew Davis wasn't happy tbh. but if he said anything, I am sure Pop would disappear him to unplayable status. I was glad for him when he got traded, not for the Spurs, but for him.

    This line right here was an eye-opener:

    You have to be 100 percent sure, not even 100, maybe 150 percent sure that you're right before you actually say something that is opposite of what he is saying," said Bertans.Said Bertans: "With the Wizards, it's more of a democracy. You can have your opinions and you feel safe that nothing is going to happen that if you're wrong somebody is going to correct you. That might be the big difference.


    People are afraid to speak up against a Pop decision. That is not helpful at all.

    Mahinmi said the same thing when he moved to Dallas. He said Carlisle’s leadership style was more democratic while Pop’s was more authoritarian.

    But yeah ofc we miss Bert.




    However, he is great, but not the championship type. Guys like him are made to hit 3s but those dry up in the big games usually, and the defense, smarts, toughness etc come into play. I love the guy but he is a rich mans Bonner

    woke

    While appearing in 49 games off the bench this season for Washington, Bertans knocked down four or more 3-pointers in 25 of those games, which is the third-highest total in NBA history.

    Another guy who was made to put up stats on a bad team. Never good enough to play championship Spurs ball. Had a few chances and his nuts shriveled up and made mistakes

    On a team where you let the guys score on you every possession, don’t care about winning games just getting up shots like you’re at the Rucker. A team with absolutely no coaching or adjustments, just jacking up shots

    Too bad covid prevented Pop from being exposed and forcing him to retire. Now he gets a pass cause the season has been cancelled and the streak stays alive.

    meh. He's been exposed.

    Only issue now are re ed low IQ 90s basketball fans. They're exactly the kind that thinks pop is still worth something.

    Bertans merely said you can speak out there. Has nothing to do with winning...Which the Spurs haven't done since 2014, btw.
