No chit.
Aldriege OTOH, tell me how Pop Brasky influenced Muh Touches summer workouts?
The things Pop (and white coaches/executives who were lucky enough to be attached to greatness in general) get credit for never ceases to amaze.
He didn't have anything to do with Diaw getting in shape, Diaw did. He realized he was going to a championship contender who was a hand in glove fit, turning 30 and his value was at an all time low, so if he wanted one more significant contract he was going to have to get his act together and had the perfect platform to do so.
The Pop hate in this forum is ridiculous. lol... you guys have the GOAT coach and do not appreciate it, SMH. How many players can we list that weren't sh1t until Pop got a hold of them? Nobody knew who the Bruce Bowen was until he came to SA. Same for S. Jackson, same for Speedy Claxton. Simmons is another Pop made guy who fell off the face of the earth w/o him. If you want a more recent example then Poertl is your guy. Pop has made a career out of getting good production from no name players. Did a masterful job in a undesirable small market, IMO.
Put Luka with Pop or someone like Pop whom he respects, and I think the guy has a different mentality.
Dude let us assist you getting your nose out of Pop Braskys ass. Liberal coconut oil will be used.
2000-2001 Miami Heat
For his strong perimeter defense, he was voted into the All-Defensive Second Team.
Also pre Spurs:
After one game against the Knicks, Heat coach Pat Riley said Bowen had made five of the best defensive plays he’d ever seen -- all in one half. A reputation grew. Bowen could shut down Allan Houston of the Knicks and Paul Pierce of the Celtics and he only got better once he joined the Spurs.
Yo Pop Brasky still waiting for an answer to below:
Well he is not wrong
There is also a list of players who had carreer years or at least increased role after geting out of san antonio and pop's doghouse.
Honestly, I think Luka's just looking for a reason to get out of Dallas and into one of the more ESPN/mainstream approved markets (Boston, Brooklyn, Chicago, Golden State, LA Lakers or Clippers, Miami, New York, etc). Don't quote me though, I could be wrong. It'd be cool if he stayed with the Mavericks of course.

I doubt Fabbs was a Spurs fan pre-Pop and I feel comfortable in stating he touts the 5 rings.
This statement doesn't say what you seem to be intending to say. It only says Pop's tutelage and the Spurs system probably helped propel some lower end players to overachievements, if for no other reason than the appearance of being pedigreed through ties to championship formulas.
You could take most bench players in the NBA, give them more minutes in a different program and they would post numbers that you might misconstrue as a sign they were held back before. In reality those numbers are often just empty stats on teams with zero chance at winning a le.
This all day every day. NBA players can all hoop, and if you give them more shots with no pressure (aka who cares my team sucks anyway), then they’ll produce.
McGee misses a FT that would have given Mav the win in regulation.
Ouch.
Are they even alive for the Play In?
**BUMP**
Pretty stupid foul by Flat Earther with 1 second left OT.
I know he thinks the bump was insignificant but the bump def helped dislodge the ball from Trey Young for the turnover.
Young was a flopping but ball was knocked loose before the flop.
Dallas is almost sure to miss the play in. Since OKC has the head to head tiebreaker, it's effectively a 2 game lead for OKC with 3 games left for Dallas, 4 for OKC. Same story with Minnesota except it's effectively a 3 game lead for the Wolves. If Dallas wins out their final 3 games and the Lakers lose their final 4 the Mavs win the head to head tiebreaker over them. Similar story with New Orleans. If Dallas wins out and NOP lose out the Mavs win the tiebreaker on conference record. Also the Mavs last three games are on the road. They're definitely going to the lottery this year.
Luka looks like he hangs out at Golden Crral
They partied like it's 1999 when that scrub hit the buzzer beater vs the Lakers
Is Cuban wrong?
Didn't Rick Brunson tamper up a storm?
Cuban didn’t offer a rookie extension so kinda his fault
NBA docks Knicks draft pick for Jalen Brunson tampering (nypost.com)
Isn't this kinda Uncle / Nephew similarities.
