The Spurs are NOT making the playoffs next year

If Wemby is healthy all season it's impossible to miss the POs bc he's such a cheat code +Castle will pass another step and Fox will be acclimated.

The real problems will be for the POs where Mitch will obviously do rookie mistakes he has to, to learn, and the team will pay the price for it.

Honestly if I’m wrong and we do make the playoffs, o don’t mind Mitch making coaching mistakes in the playoffs. Well so long as he learns from them

But I remember Pop playing Purdue, Robinson, and Duncan at the same time vs Phoenix which we won so it wasn’t a “mistake” I guess but I remember thinking wtf. Like I got that Phx had a plethora of guards to throw at us but Will Purdue??

Yr 3 Wemby + yr 2 Castle + an acclimated Fox = missed playoffs, huh?

Not even gonna mention the impending offseason additions, like the lotto pick.

Yeah, Imma need OP to pass me some of that good that he is clearly smoking, tbh.

Pop finished it all right before he hired Mitch tbh

I don't understand the "pop held mitch back" narrative. I mean, the dude we saw today has had 6 months of post-stroke therapy and looks rough. Was he really puppeteering mitch in the weeks and months that immediately followed his stroke? I find that pretty hard to believe, but its all speculation.

well sometimes its also a matter of not being able to install a completely new defense when you havent had summer/camp/preseason to work it in, so you kind of have to run what you have with some modifications and tweaks

its like when an NFL offensive coordinator gets canned midseason, they are still more or less limited to the playbook the players are familiar with and have rehearsed in the offseason

im not saying thats necessarily whats happened with Mitch, but i certainly hope that was the case

Watched Mitch IV. Pretty smart guy. Stanford guy. Hope he can learn fast on the job.
