Vassell is not a waive the white flag player...

[Degoat]

looks like pop is throwing the white flag

[TimDunkem]

and....guess who is the head of our front office?

Imagine still not knowing in 2021 that Poop controls this organization with an iron fist, and that everyone else are just glorified secretaries.

[TimDunkem]

0-3 with Derrick White lol

The Savior!

[Robz4000]

White not looking so hot. I know there is a rust factor, but...damn.

I'll give him a few weeks to a month. He's one of those players that seemingly takes a while to get going during the season.

[Degoat]

And that is mostly Poop's fault. He is the puppet master pulling every string.

No doubt Pop has a big say but he doesn't give , he hasn't since TD retired. I guarantee in the offseason he vacationing living his life

[Robz4000]

Spurs are gonna lose by 30+

[SpurPadre]

Scrubanks and Weatherproof in now.

[spurs10]

Well two games where they kick your butt proves it ain't a fluke.

[TheGreatYacht]

0-3 with Derrick White lol

Dumbasses with the “best player on the team” takes aren’t gonna like this

Went from being the Celtics and Nuggets to getting cream pied by Gorgui Dieng

[RD2191]

This team has zero heart. Smh. What a bunch of worthless gots.

[r0drig0lac]

Kyle Anderson simply learned 3pt shoot just to have fun with Pop and the Spurs

[TimDunkem]

No doubt Pop has a big say but he doesn't give , he hasn't since TD retired. I guarantee in the offseason he vacationing living his life

And that is why this team will be a perpetual 9th place team.

You would think the Spurs' record was 4-14 with this kind of statement

I meant by the officials. Spurs are routinely getting pummeled at the rim with the refs swallowing their whistles while getting called for breathing on the other end. Been this way since 2014 but now they don't have the BBIQ to overcome it.

[KaiRMD1]

Pathetic

Has White coming back ed up the rotations? Vassel ain’t even seeing a lot of plying time now ��

[J_Paco]

Pop has been done since the summer of ‘17. His ego and not having anything to live for after his wife’s death is why he will continue to coach until he dies. Pop is holding back the team from going forward much like Kobe did with the Lakers from ‘13-‘16.

Y'all are crazy overreactionary, man.

I think what has hurt this team is not having a superstar to build around. Last time they had a fully healthy, not yet gone completely 'diva mode" superstar they were in the WCF.

I wonder if GSW fans say just as much dumb about Steve Kerr? And he still has a superstar and their team is practically in rebuilding mode.

Our second unit led the league in net rating two games ago. He’s ed everything up.

[SpurPadre]

That’s exactly what it is. They’ve appointed the best player on the team and don’t wanna eat the sandwich they made so they’ll shift the blame elsewhere.

Some guy last game quoted me after I called out White falling asleep and giving Bane (50% 3pt shooter) two open threes, and suggested Pop might have told him to do that since he’s a rookie

Folks need to watch him on defense and notice how he’s lost sight of his guy every single time due to over helping.

Back in the Nuggets 1st round series when he choked the last couple games until Pop had enough and benched his ass in favor of more minutes for ing Forbes, people were blaming Pop for not letting him play his way out of his funk. It was a game 7 and he was playing scared like a little . He earned that benching but no one wanted to blame him. Now, they're saying he just needs a month. I mean, I want the dude to succeed but he really hasn't earned the bulletproof defense of him.

Low IQ posters coming out of the woodworks after losses

Needs a month to recover from a stubbed toe but crucified Murray after an ACL year on here and on social media. Disgusting
