Nice bounce back after that ugly preseason
thanks
The new SL and no Lyles.... This should be an A+ for Pop.
DeMar 28 pts 9 reb 9 ast 1 stl 1 to
looks pretty good to me
Walker with 16 pts. As mentioned before if he can put up 15-20 a game Spurs have a great shot at winning. Good prediction. I honestly did not see it coming, given his production in the preseason
Mills/Gay/Purrtl around 20 mins or less. Also good. Hope Pop sees this as the winning formula and doesn't shoe-horn the team's worst players into bad situations. Don't know if I can stand another charmin soft Purrtl jumper getting blocked at the rim.
LMA with 3 boards / getting out rebounded by everyone on the team sans Mills is not a good look. Typical lower effort game from him?

I thought about giving Pop the highest grade, tbh. The exhalers would have had a collective coronary so I decided to let them get through Christmas first
Grades are spot on imo.... I do wonder how you see the SL changing when White comes back?
yeah thanks for the grades as usual.
I had "Cue the haters" at the end of my post initially, then I deleted it lmaoI thought about giving Pop the highest grade, tbh. The exhalers would have had a collective coronary so I decided to let them get through Christmas first
Not having Forbes on this team is like having a computer mod on a video game.
You should've, tbh, missed chance for an A+ tonight. Don't know whether you'll get many more opportunities during the season... Pop coached a perfect game tonight. Great rotations, heavy minutes to young guys, perfectly timed TOs. Nothing to complain about.I thought about giving Pop the highest grade, tbh.

I supported the Spurs bringing him back but Lyles was so bad in the preseason that I'm now fully on board with him not being in the rotation at any point going forward unless something drastic changes.

I'm definitely on board with not having Lyles at point guard, too, tbh
It’s amazing the way this team looks when there’s no Forbes. I waited and waited and waited for Pop to finally bench his ass last year and it never came (before the bubble) Thank you Milwaukee and Bud for taking him off our hands.
Yeah I was surprised Lyles didn’t get any time at all tonight but I’ll take it. I can see him being used in certain games for certain matchups or if one of Aldridge or Poetl end up in foul trouble but that’s about it...
Biggest W is definitely no Lyles
crc, my dude. Haven’t seen you around these parts in a while.It’s amazing the way this team looks when there’s no Forbes. I waited and waited and waited for Pop to finally bench his ass last year and it never came (before the bubble) Thank you Milwaukee and Bud for taking him off our hands.
Thanks OP.
KJ gets a shot at y P next game, great test for him.

Thanks for the grades Timvp.
I don't know if Keldon's insertion to the starting line-up was matching Kyle, who is not much bigger and doesn't impose on the paint. Because I like Keldon's energy rubbing to the guys from the get go. I hope Pop stays with him.
Murray with 21/6/9 could be higher than B+. I like Murray playing aggressive to score, and not to make a fancy pass. Great job today.
Demar would get A+ for his almost triple-double game. Demar had an answer to the Grizz every time they tried to make a come back.
Aldridge B- is accurate. It was great that his shots were going in. But who really gets too excited when your 6'11 center make more outside attempts than in the paint? And 3 rebounds? I still think he needs to establish the post every time.
Great game from Lonnie. He needs to continue the hunt. I swear his eyes lit up every time Grayson was guarding him
Understandable for Vassell. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't great. Hopefully it was just 1st NBA game jitter. Spurs need at least 8pts or more from him
I really have to commend Pop for staying with the line-up and letting Lonnie rocked the rim. Fun stuff.Go Spurs Go

Poetl is a mystery to me. He is so impactful defensively but absolute garbage on the offensive side. I still can’t get over that pump fake over the point guard 3 feet from the basket only to give the opposing center time to rotate and seat his actual shot away
Murray and DDR fit very well together and it makes me wonder where White fits. He just got paid so he has to start but if Lonnie keeps playing like this who does he start over? Do we need a 3rd ball handler on the floor all at once? Idk
Pop with his best coaching performance in a long while. Great write up
almost forgot what an easy win felt like tbh. against a playoff caliber team too.
felt like Bubble Spurs again, except even more mature
Agreed!
Thanks for the great write-up!I thought about giving Pop the highest grade, tbh. The exhalers would have had a collective coronary so I decided to let them get through Christmas first
I was wondering the same. With Keldon and Walker both playing like this, it's a good problem to have. Keldon was a shocker missing the preseason....wow!
no forbes = no problem???
