It worked for Boston last year. They changed 40% of their starting lineup.

Not realistic. The margins for improvement are so small, a lot of stuff fans care about still relies on Wemby offensive game.
For 23/24, are the attempts saying the opposing team is taking 11th most attempts or 11th least attempts?
That is actually disgusting lol
The lower the number the better. So being 1st in attempts allowed means you're given up the least amount of attempts.
Yeah, because he’s only lost billions driving Twitter into the ground.
ive been saying this for years and getting bashed....since the derozan days...he has been getting worse, and no one in the organization has any accountability....any other coach would have been fired last year for putting sochan as a PG and curtailing half a year of proper development from wemby
Po has always been ba at recognising talent.
If it wasn't for Sam Presti insisting, Tony Parker would've never been a Spur and if it wasn't for veterans players and probabaly some staff as well, Manu would've maybe gone back to europe with the treatment he got...
He thought Forbes was Him ffs![]()
Where do you get your infos mate?
Since he bought it, Twitter is killing it and has never had as many subs and has become more reliable than mainstream medias.
that seems like a false equivalency to me.
It's a legit rant. Spurs FO and coaching staff have done a lot of questionable choices lately.
However, to me, there is currently a big reason to be hopeful about Spurs:
When you look at how top teams are build, what really matters is to have a great 5 man unit. Bench isn't that important. If Spurs can have that 5 players lineup, their rebuild with be, let's say, at 80% done.
The great news is that Spurs might already have 4 of the 5 players needed with Wembanyama, Vassell, Sochan and Castle. If (yep, it's a big if), they keep their promises and develop well, Spurs will only be one player away, ideally a good shooting SF, to be a good team.
To me there's a big difference between looking at long-term goals and strategy and individual choices. Too many people get hung up on individual decisions. It gets unproductive, and that's true in any field including ing about basketball on the internet.
Last night was one of the first times I was truly frustrated with the team.
I'll back up. Largely, I can see the direction the franchise has tried to take since Duncan's retirement. They tried to stay relevant with LMA and DDR while building young players. It didn't quite work, but it wasn't a bad philosophy. We can see multiple examples just in this era of teams that scrape and scrape and scrape and never get out of the cellar.
It took a while, but they finally broke things down by selling off White and Murray. Meanwhile, they managed to create some good players from bad draft positions. They got assets from places they shouldn't have gotten anything, like DeRozan leaving.
They had a horrendous draft where Primo diddled and didn't take Sengun. They whiffed on Samanac. Lonnie didn't prove a long-term thing. None of those bother me from a long-term strategy viewpoint. Spurs fans have this starry-eyed, inconceivable idea that every draft pick is supposed to be perfect. (I'll call it Presti-sniffing.) Never in history has any team hit on all their draft picks. I'll include all the whining about Branham and Wesley. They were picks in the 20s. And I think Branham is clearly an NBA player, although still developing.
Obviously, Wembanyama changed everything for the franchise. A potential all-timer who actively wants to be in San Antonio, a city that may be more boring than Indianapolis. There are decent pieces on the team in Vassell, Sochan, and now Castle. One or two other players might make it.
The question is where we are right now. Getting two veterans was absolutely the right move. We've only seen the start of how they'll improve long-term IQ. I don't get whining about second round draft picks. And as for missing players in the draft -- this happens all the time. For everyone. You're not a genius for claiming to think Jokic was going to be great. No one did. This stuff isn't magic.
However, the question is next steps, and those are extremely hard. To me, the team has been intent to 1) not take on long-term salary, 2) try to figure out who works around Wembyanama.
These are good strategies. I've said it a few times -- they seem to be looking at the next decade above the next year. I'm utterly unconcerned about using the #8 draft pick this year. If you're bothered by not using it, you have to say who would have been worthwhile. It's not a nebulous, angelic, indefinable "generic lottery pick would be great." Time will tell, but Buzelis ain't playing, Dillingham ain't playing, Cody Williams isn't doing much (he actually played last night, a lot), and so on.
Clearly the team wants to seed the future with assets for when this team may be really, and finally, good.
But it's hard to watch them let Wembanyama fling up countless threes at the start of a game without forcing the defense to do anything. It's frustrating that there are still no shooters on the roster. The early game droughts are excruciating. I get the 'pounding the rock' thing - it takes time. And the team sees things no one else sees. But it feels like we need to make at least some moves at this point because we have players stagnating and things looking a bit listless.
If Hitler says 2+2 = 4,
does 2+2=4?
Are you saying the figures are inaccurate?
And Hilter enters the chat...
It's a sick obsession
On a serious note tho, "fool me once..." I don't waste my time with CNN and the high prob of a biased hit piece the same way I don't waste my time with Fox News.
As for Twitter you should try find diff sources of info (https://www.statista.com/topics/737/...#topicOverview) and most importantly not mistaken the reasons it was bought and knowingly overpaid.
Are you going to deny the existence of the "twitter files" that showed a DAILY communication and directions from the FBI/gov to every social medias? Are you fine with that?
I think we need a little bit more stoicism in this world and teach people to accept that complete opposite pov are allowed to be expressed. Even the stupidest.
Imagie if the opposition once in power did the same thing against leftists ideas?
Don't know the guy but Thank you Elon Musk for Twitter
Pop's ability to mess with lineups that are showing obvious chemistry or are digging the team out of holes that Pop's game plans put them in is uncanny.
NOTHING worse than in the later days of the Dynasty when Pop would have a lineup that was cooking and he'd still force Bonner into the lineup or some other low-ceiling player Pop always gave minutes to and Bonner/bum would just mess up the grove and chemistry.
That's probably because you're a re ed simp
Holy you're re ed alsorofl thinking the guy who censors any opposing viewpoint on his platform is some kind of bastion of free speech. you maga s are so ing dense
Butt hurt
You are
