He was getting wide open looks before due to being on talented Spurs and Bucks teams, he won't get those looks on this team. Due to his poor defense he would need to shoot around 50 percent or more to even be more than a break even player.
what??? hahahaha

28-28 after a hard fought 1st qtr vs Mavs.
Popped calls for Pet Bryn to start the 2nd quarter.
6 minutes later Spurs are down 10 as Bryn posts one basket and the rest 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
Signature lock down D was there.
3rd qtr and 2nd half lets see if Primo gets any run or CIA Pop sticks with Pet Bryn.
11 minutes of non productive bull in a tight game eventually choked off by 1 point.
Dallas 109 Poppy s 108.
Primo zero minutes.
Only 11 minutes? It felt like he was out the Forbesever.
Dude was irrelevant per usual
Still managed a -13 for the night
17-42 40% FG
10-25 40% 3pt
unfortunately his 8-game numbers are enough to keep getting more PT
Primo got swagger after an impressive Summer League and opening game of the season. Now, with all the DNP's, He will slowly start to lose confidence and play ty basketball, afraid to make mistakes because of Pop. The bad thing, Spurs no longer have the veteran's for mental support after getting yelled at by Pop. Maybe Murray, the rest all looks afraid of Pop.
Tangent: If they want shooting they need to go to Jock instead. Though not as great a shooter as Forbes, he seems to have great form and confidence and is WAY less of a detriment to the team. Especially if Drew has already abandoned his outside shot after his one attempt put a crack in the backboard. So yeah, I see why they signed Forbes, for shooting, but it has to come from someone else.
at home vs Dallas.
Pathetic.
Entered the game 3Xs and each time had an almost immediate turn over. Back to back turns when it was still a game to feed Dallas momentum. With zero points scored.
Sniffers: "But but but he shot 50% and had a trey" sniff sniff.
Reality: He made his first basket when Dallas was up 117-97 with 4 minutes left.
His one meaningless trey when Dallas was up by 16 with less then 2 minutes to play and was playing zero defense. Game was over.
are there any Bryn Forbe sniffers here? i don't think such a thing exist. perhaps forbes' family but even they are starting to question why Pop is playing him over primo
^ Those stats are ing horrendous. You found the perfect picture for it.
The crazy part is that the 25% includes Bryn's own 42.9%, meaning his presence somehow drains even more than 13.3 from team 3P%.
It's funny how signing Forbes pissed off both sides: those who want the Spurs to push for the playoffs because he sucks so bad, and those who want the Spurs to tank because having to watch Forbes out there is one of the most painful forms of tanking possible.
One of the biggest things I’ve noticed with Bryn is just how much of drain he puts on his own team’s resources when he enters the game.
The Spurs consistently to have to run plays for him on Offense as his self creation, athleticism, ball handling are limited. Then on Defense he has to be hidden on the opposition’s lesser threats, where he gets to “rest” a majority of the time which should be reserved for our higher usage and more consistent scoring options.
The Bryn playbook for me is quite clear:
- He is unplayable w/o Jakob and as a pairing with Tre Jones in the b/c.
- Needs to be paired with either DJ and Vassell, or DW and Vassell for spot minutes.
And people here are still defending. having Forbes on the roster. Facts just don't seem to matter to the sniffers .
vs Phoenix
20-20 when Greg CIA Pop went to his secret weapon Pet Bryn.
After missing his only trey attempt Brny put up another stat line of
0 0 0 0 0 0 0
in 7 minutes with 1 turnover.
41 - 31 Phoenix when Pop eased up on Phoenix and took Bryn out.
Damn, Didn't y'all want to tank? so why the hate for the ulitmate Tank Commander! Forbes!
Celtics.
23 minutes for Bryn Bryn. 0-5 on treys, 1-7 overall.
5 minutes for Primo
0 for Jock.
Also Trey Jones 5-6 in 18 minutes.
Suns
Very good game by Forms, had a good part in the Spurs comeback.
Dec 7th, 2021.
A day that may live in infamy.
Joshua Primo enters the game for Bryn Forbes
Denver.
6 minutes in the 1st half and Forms was pulled for good.
1 minutes for Primo Suave at the very end of the blowout. Disgusting.![]()
Forbes has improved his offensive versatility from his first stint here but he's still a traffic cone on D and might have the worst bball instincts in the league (always out of position, never comes up with the loose ball). He should only be used as a offensive spark or if a three is needed. 10 minutes a game at most unless he catches fire. Patty was the better defender and could handle the ball better, but Forbes has more scoring options.
i feel like in the past 5 games or so he's been better. Not great, just better.
and Pop has still been limiting his play time. its a miracle.
You have to think some team reached out recently. Had his 1st DNP of the season and didn't even play when the game was out of reach and then the next day Sham drops this with two months until the trade deadline.
