So whos gonna win it all this year?
I'm gonna go out on a limb and say Cleveland.
Guys WTF calm down its only January! lmao haha where are all you "its only <insert month here> naggers? But yea I agree Dice, Bonner, Finley and Parker need to go. Ginobili, Duncan, Jefferson, Hill, Blair, Mason need to stay. Once Parker is gone, Jefferson will break out knowing he is not a 4th option. He looks lost because he is not involved in the offense. Ginobili was frustrated as theres no one on the team matching his dedication and effort. Jamison would be nice to bring in.

I was definitely part of the It's Only December crew. But we're closer to February than December now, and the same mistakes and tendencies are there.
Trade ing Manu....... he plays only first halves and his body is weaker than RJ balls.
Keep Tim, Blair, Hill. Trade whoever else.
Make a run at Bosh
RJ has no balls. Manu does.
securing additional 1st-round picks is the way to go
Los Angeles.
I would take ANYBODY for Jeffersson!!!!!
This just can't be worse... (financialy and on the court)
Manu is the only player on our team who can make plays for everyone! Are you n kidding me! You release him you allow parker to Brick our way out of the playoffs. Idiot! If anyone needs to be traded is ball hog parker
Normally I'd say we still have time to gel, but the team hasn't shown any improvement since last month, so not feeling too optimistic now.
However, if we shake up the team even more before the deadline, I still don't think we have a shot at winning it this year - we already had trouble incorporating the new guys from the offseason, so it'd be worse trying to get the chemistry right midway through the season.
Right now, the team is stuck. We are not playing well enough to be contenders - we are merely just a decent team in the middle of the pack come playoff time. The trick is how are we going to try to rebuild? Do we blow it all up now and see what we can get and hope for a better season next year? Tough situation.
I'll be all too glad to eat my words if they do start playing better, but i dont see that happening anytime soon...
No way cleveland wins it. Lebron doesnt have the will yet (if ever).
God, please dont let shaq get his 5th before Tim. I would rather Kobe get it first
we need to blame pop for once instead of wanting trading our guys
maybe it's time to fire pop
It would be smart from the FO to try to get some first round picks, we can't gamble for ever on 2nd round pick...
Untouchables:
Tim - still got it.
Hill and Blair - future of the team
Maybe:
Manu - if he plays at a decent level all season, then resign him.
TP - if his body continues to regress, then he needs to go.
Malik and Ian - Only if the Spurs can't get a better player in return or if their potential is wasted.
Mason - if there are no better options out there then keep him.
Bonner - if he returns to the player he was before he was hurt, then keep him. he's good for spot minutes.
Don't resign
Bogans - He's not a long term Spur.
Ratliff - too old
Finley - same as Theo.
GTFO
and Dice - offseason busts.
What a fickle fan base the Spurs have.
^As sad as it is, it's true. The scoring droughts for such a potent offensive team are the most direct implication of faulty coaching.
The Spurs have 100% underachieved this season.
What does that have to do with the fan base being fickle? Nothing is done with 100% certainty. All you can ask for from the team you root for is that they try and win.
They have done that. They made moves that made sense and that they thought could give them the best shot to win. They spent money and put out a team that could compete.
So far it has not worked out, but that does not mean fans should and moan like a bunch of spoiled brats. Sometimes things don't work out, but you take it like a man and move forward. There is nothing wrong with wanting improvements, but there is something wrong with crying like little malcontents and whining over moves that everyone would have made. Especially when those moves were made with the best of intentions.
Fickle fan base.
I always thought the same thing when I'd see the meltdown threads, but after the recent back 2 back losses against obviously inferior teams (on paper at least) I couldn't help but start wondering if there really is a problem and I'm just in denial.
But yea, Manu is the only movable piece that never gives up, and the only reason why I haven't on the Spurs during the games. Trading him is no promise that we can turn it around...and if he's gone and we're still struggling, we don't have Manu's grit and heart to fall back on to at least give us (or maybe just me?) hope.
I wouldn't mind trimming the fat from the roster and getting a defensive big to anchor us. If nothing else, the Wizards gotta be talking to the Spurs at this point for SOMETHING...give them TP, cuz once Timmy is gone he doesn't wanna "baby sit" on a non-contender. Send his ass to the Wizards before he leaves on his own so he can see how good he had it in SA.
You expect the fanbase to be "constant and loyal in their affections" (definition of fickle) when their team is, by some's count, vastly underachieving?
lol at the oxymorons on this thread not willing to trade away parker, gino or whoever else not name td, blair, ghill
stop fkn living in the past with the 4rings..
since our last ring, pop and co hasnt delivered and found a way to beat smallball,
fck this loyalty bs you clowns in here always bring up....
There is absolutely no denying the team has a problem. That does not change the fact the fans are fickle.
Fickle does not accurately describe our reaction.
what a joke
