    He's taken a step this season, no doubt about it. However, he always shows up to play Lebron.

    A lot of people here owe DJ an apology.

    I don't know how DJ can take a step back from how he's playing right now. He's clearly a different player. Sure, he'll have a bad game here and there. But the IQ and the feel are obviously improved.

    Chinook has consistently called for Murray to come off the bench. I wonder if he still feels that way.

    Nice that I get mentioned in a thread le, but no. I still don't like what he's doing. It's never been about whether he makes those shots sometimes. I said this after that good Laker game he had and then didn't feel the need to come out and say it again after he struggled in that Jazz game. I hate his role. Maybe he plays well enough consistently enough to justify it. But ST's inability to look at players in any context other than "this player sucks" or "this player is good" is annoying.

    Yeah. I still think he and White aren't a good starting combo and that Derrick would be a much better starter if the team wants to maximize their potential this year. Murray's doing well enough now to where you don't look to bench him, and Derrick may not even be able to handle starter's minutes at this point. But I'm still curious about whether this SL will survive the season. Johnson falling off offensively is concerning, and it could easily be due to the strain of playing PF.

    Its funny that consistency with Murray means gloating after 2 good games in a row hahaha

    He was so ing dismal against the Jazz....1-13.

    This isn't just about the shots going in and you know it. You want to twist DJ into something he'll never be to set expectations for him that he'll never meet so you can justify not ever being wrong about him. It doesn't pay to be that edgy.

    Everyone in that game did horrible. Weird way to single out a player tells me you only looked at the box score.

    He has had a lot of stretches where he made me a believer just to revert back to his sucky ways, tbh. So it's not like this is something new, tbh.

    I just don't think there's enough sample size that shows Derrick would be a much better starter to maximize the team's potential. When it comes to leadership qualities, none of young players can match Murray's. He's definitely a leader and you want that in your starting PG.

    He was consistently bad last season, so I'm not sure how he made you a believer at any point then.

    this. Y’all forgot that he missed an entire season with an ACL injury. It was clear that this is the season where he has to prove he belongs. And damn did he put in work. Looks like a future All-Star out there

    Still erratic, yes, but the good is so much better than before. I have already eaten my crow taco. How he is used by the coaches to me is a totally different conversation.

    So you're telling me it's alright to call the Spurs a lottery team after four games but not okay to give praise to a player after eight?

    It's backwards logic, man, and you know it.

    Negativity rules the world.

    But if White had this stretch after 8 games, you guys would be comparing him to the Big 3. , someone here once said White is the next Manu lol.

    White has proven a lot more than Murray over a much longer period of time than just 8 games, tbh. If Murray is still playing this way halfway through the season, then we can start talking about a clearly improved player.

    White has also proven he can be benched in a Game 7 in favor of more Forbes.

    I want both to succeed and be stars but I swear Spur fans here give way more leeway to White.
