Because we don't get to play the Wolves every game.
I agree that it probably time to start either White (preferred) or Vassell over Lonnie, but I doubt Pop would bench LaMarcus.
Best outcome is either they either trade LaMarcus before the deadline or buy him out afterwards. Team definitely needs to move on from him, although the Poeltl - Eubanks is very shot on offensive output in comparison.
That'd be stupid AF so yeah I could see the FO doing that
Say what you will, but Demar had a beautiful game on the stat sheet tonight.
My man Jak POTG
Depression with the highs and lows.......
I hope this game doesn’t affect Keldon minutes going further, he wasn’t out there much tonight
How is that "stupid," goofy?That'd be stupid AF so yeah I could see the FO doing that
He's terrible on defense and barely even attempts to rebound a ball. He's fallen off a cliff production wise and buying him out wouldn't hurt cause he's expiring.
He can sign on with a contender and the team can see if Poeltl has more games like this (and less like in the bubble) in him.
You know, fully embracing a youth movement means shedding less useful and productive veterans. So far, LaMarcus has looked like the most expendable of the four.

Keldon has to be the most reluctant career 40% 3 point shooter in the NBA. I know when he misses, he can miss bad, but cmon
Hes got to be completely uncovered to take it confidently. His gather and shot is so slow, if he’s cover or getting closed out on it’s not going to be pretty.
Keldon needs those nice pass inside like he did to Poeltl, when people are waiting for him to take the charge, or quick stop for a jumpshot, anything to keep the other guys guessing.
Spurs at their best tonight when Lonnie was off the floor
That’s fair tbhIs the bar for a "HOF" coach really "At least he's not Ryan Saunders"
Also, I'd do the exact same thing if I was him, I'd let Depression get as much as he wants. Minny's problem was on offense in that 4th tbh.
YEAH WE BEAT THE TIMBERWOLVES
his contract is expiring. So can just sit him til end of season. Why the need to cut
Yeah, he was invisible. Very, very disappointing effort and he seems to be more and more indecisive/reluctant as the season progresses.
Wish he would remain in attack mode and use his athleticism to his advantage more.
Pop will likely bench him if the passivity & poor defensive play continues.
I'll take a win every time.
Always happy to see a win.
im glad Poetl had a monster game. More please
im glad DeRozan showed up to a game
But this took an epic comeback against the worst team in the West so I’m not so sure how high I am on the win tbh
Gain another roster spot, although we are only carrying 16 presently, and allow him to sign on with a contender. He likely isn't in the team's long - term plans so a buy out is a win - win situation for both sides (if we aren't battling for a playoff spot).
That is hypothetical cause I think they'll do everything in their power, even holding on to all the veterans, to make the play - in situation.
Is it a game or tournament this season?
Start White. Put Lonnie on the brew crew.
Even though they led most of the way, we had to know Minnesota would piss this game away.
Well they are tanking as they have the worst record in the West - damn we almost lost to them.
I think that is inevitable once Derrick is fully looking like himself, TBH.
We definitely need his defense and the shot creation he displayed in the bubble in the starting line up.
Less iso/"hero ball" and more playmaking can only help the starting lineups constant lethargic starts too.
That's a good observation. It seems now, defenders are barely closing out on him because they know he's so reluctant to shoot & wants to bulldoze his way to the rack.
