Spurs Look Winded in Loss to Bulls

Michael Finley is en led to his minutes, why shouldn't Blair be? At least the spurs would be investing in the future, not a guy who's going to be getting his AARP card in a few years.

What does Michael Finley's minutes have to do with Blair?


I've tried to engage you in a serious discussion. Apparently that is not possible. Every response returns to some complaint about Finley or Bonner.

Maybe your hearing alot of complaining because Pop is starting both of them and playing them major minutes at the expense of developing the younger talent on the team. Your gonna hear a lot more of that I gaurantee you by the end of the season.

Finley's minutes relate to Blair because Pop gives his veterans (and especially Finley & Bonner) minutes regardless, don't matter how many points they're surrendering or how bad they're shooting. It's a running joke around here that Finley is Pop's favorite man-crush. It defies logic, but Finley is still getting his 30+ minutes per game, despite being a turnstyle on defense and offering little more than spot up shooting at the offensive end.

You told me in an earlier post that Blair should not be gauranteed any minutes. All I'm saying is that should apply to everyone on the spurs, not just Pop's favorite "man-crushes" or whatever the is going on there.

It is not my position that Finley should have guaranteed minutes. I said nothing in my post that could even remotely be interpreted as such.

Your position on Finley and Bonner is well known. It does not need to be restated in every single post.

Read the posts above.

You posed a question.

I answered in some detail.

Rather than respond to my post, you went on a rant about Finley that had nothing to do with any position I have taken.

I still would be interested to read anything you might have to say about the position I took on the playing time for Blair, Hill, and Hairston.
