Pop: Oh Kurt, you're in there? I thought you're still a sonic! Ok you can play now.

[Spurs Brazil]

Manuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Completely agree with your post.

That's because I'm right 98% of the time.

Is it a Coincidence that when Manu comes back Parker sucks ass?

[Mavs<Spurs]

2 point lead OKC, charge on Westbrook.

81-79.

Also, yes, it is a coincidence that when Manu comes back, Parker isn't having his best game.

[Crookshanks]

It's a 2 point game! Alright guys - step it up and CRUSH the Thunder!!!!!

Where's Sequ?

I was responding to someone else's post about Pop's rotations in general. Vaughn had nothing to do with it. Calm down.

It was a complement. The Spurs will go as far as Ime Udoka and Jacque Vaughn take them. I know we can count on them. Hopefully Manu saves us from this mess. Thanks Pop!

Probably the same reason Parker rarely passes to him..

[vander]

Sure I can.

No Bowen
Too much Finley
Not enough Drew
Too much Mason PG
No fixed rotation RIGHT BEFORE THE ING PLAYOFFS!!

yeah I was kinda joking, I mean who could care about those things when you're looking at retirement, wine, and orgies?

[Mugen]

thats why manu is the .

timmy and tony are cerebral and thats great and all but when this team needs a fire lit under their ass, manu is your man.

[fiona_yin]

[Crookshanks]

What support do you have for that?

[will_spurs]

I think what everybody complaining about JV is missing is that maybe Mason won't be a backup PG for much longer. And even though we'd all rather have Hill as a backup PG, I'd still settle for JV rather than Mason. So in a distorted way, it might be good news to see JV playing tonight.

[mystargtr34]

TP/Hill
Mason/Manu
Bowen/Fin
Duncan/Gooden
Bonner/Thomas

Why does 95% of the smarter portion of SpursTalk agree that is the best rotation, yet the guy with 15 years coaching experience in the NBA completely disagrees and s around with the rotation, and still hasnt figured out what the best one is.

Is SpursTalk really so dumb and clueless, that we dont know what were talking about.

I mean, theres alot of people on here that have followed the team and the individuals on it closely for as long as this current team has been together.

Hasnt it been proven over and over that the team performs alot better with Bowen getting minutes, and Mason starting with TP. Or that Kurt Thomas is a pretty good rebounder, and that the team rebounds better with him on the court. Ie, when the Spurs are getting killed on the boards and its almost single handedly costing us the game, put him on the ing floor.

Just wondering out loud, does Pop see the this stuff? Or does he base all of his decisions on practice.

Set the ing rotation already. The players are human, change effects them.

[Spursmania]

We need to drive it in these suckers' throats.

[BlackSwordsMan]

manu > parker

[SanAntonioSpurs23]

Ginobili is in attack mode

[Thomas82]

Let's get this deficit to one or tie it up.

Finally, someone talking sense. Thank you, my Aussie friend.

The Spurs are not losing because they don't have heart, or effort, or want to win any less.

They are losing because they are not playing as well as their opponent. Period. It's about skill, strategy, technique, athleticism, and execution. Not effort.

Exactly. These people who talk heart all the time me to tears. These guys ALWAYS want to win, and when they don't it's because they were outplayed or outcoached, not because they slacked off.

- Draft Hill to be a good, young backup PG --> Bench him instead of developing him during the long season.
- Don't find a SF to take over for Bowen --> Bench Bowen anyway.
- Sign Mason for some scoring depth --> Try to turn him into a backup PG.

Pop is soft and senile. He needs to become Angry Pop again and be spittin' obscenities in everyone's face.

Spot on.

manu was on the bench when spurs got the run started in the 3
