    I know you're a troll and hate Pop, but where is the blame for DeRozan? He's the one constantly dribbling into traffic/resistance and pulling up for mid or long - range 2's.

    The spacing was terrible at times, guys continue to meet resistance & pass back out again leading to an eventual contested mid range shot.

    DeMar also passed up multiple open three - pointers for contested shots, but sure it's all Pop's fault.......
    There's my guy...

    I hate Derozan as much as anybody, you won't get any argument from me about his game. But he's also the same guy he was in Toronto. And your boy decided to trade a top 5 player for him

    disappointing effort from everyone tonight AGAIN. I am growing impatient with Lonnie, guys gotta be more consistent. Spurs need to quit helping off the ball so much it leads to open shot after open shot

    The guy has had plenty of minutes and does nothing with them.

    He turns down good shots, takes bad shots, and otherwise seems content to just stay in the background most of the time.

    He's also a traffic cone on defense.

    Sorry, but the occasional flashy dunk or a couple three's a game hasn't sold me on this kid yet. You can't blame Pop for all of the team's problems. The players have to play.
    I still hope he'll figure it out but he's looking more and more like a poor man's Zach LaVine. Unfortunately, we need a lot more than that or at least a consistent, quality defensive effort (with good scoring).

    If he continues to "flounder" I'm more than okay with swapping his minutes with more Vassell. Which sucks cause I really, really want the kid to succeed.

    Giving up Open 3s while taking contested 2s. If you don't like that, you don't like Pop Basketball for the last 3 years
    Spurs cant generate anything easy while they getting great looks.

    Going the same way as grizz game.. tea. Is in trouble.. they seem rudderless on offense and running back lost the other way.

    Team needs a sharkup of sorts.. maybe even trade.

    Team has needed a shakeup for the last 2 years tbh. A trade would help but there's a better and more impactful shakeup hopefully on the horizon this summer, fingers crossed.

    they over help and it seems like when they do help on drives the other defenders don’t know who to rotate to. Just piss poor communication

    Right, when said top 5 player tanked his trade value and put the Spurs in a no - win situation.

    Nobody was willing to give up quality assets (no thanks to those mediocre LA offers) for him, so the Spurs made the (worst) move that was available.

    He'll be gone after this season and the team can find a quality #1 option.

    And as I type that DeMar takes two more mid - range shots.......

    But, I guess that is still Pop's fault......

    Don't let me get you so upset, JPacz...

    A) I'm skeptical that he's gonna actually be gone this summer
    B) You seem like the type of guy that blames the dog instead of its owner

    All we know is we have seen the same crappy play by this spurs team now for 10 quarters straight. You expecting anything different the next 2.. probably not

    You are simple, man. I point out DeRozan forcing 2's (again!) and passing up three's, but you blame Pop for HIS shot selection....

    Is the Spurs three-point defense just stand and watch, but not box-out for a rebound?

    Question, I haven't watched BBall for several years and decided to come back now. Is defense a foreign concept that is no longer necessary in the league?

    He sucks on defense too and isn't close to Nephew's level either.....

    That terrible DeRozan turnover must have been Pop's fault too.

    Basically, that's all I see them do and then the other team gets the offensive rebound with no one challenging them
