Mason Wants Out?

[ducks]

Brewer sucks.

mason does not ?

[EricB]

What does that have to do with why he is not playing now?

I misunderstood what you said.

Sorry all knowing one.

[ducks]

Problem is, there was a roster to rally behind in 07.

Can you honestly say that about THIS roster as it stands now?

If they were to get a Tyrus Thomas and a John Salmons I'd then go into full 07 mode and be ready to rally the troops, but even I one of the biggest Spurs homers there is can't get confident in this group.

quit making excuses

spurs are starting to look like they need a new coach

[EricB]

mason does not ?

wtf...

Sorry all knowing one.

What does that even mean? You misunderstood what I said, then call me all knowing one? I could literally say that about everyone of your posts.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

No, it would be a coach trying to rally his troops to put out their best effort.
That's pretty much what he did in 2007.

The "woe is me, we have no hope" spiel is straight from the Don Nelson Excuse Making Loser Bull School of coaching. Unfortunately and inexplicably, Pop seems to have picked this time in his career to start emulating his buddy in all kinds of bad ways.

shoog you have definitely been onto something with this theory

i'm agreeing more and more

[EricB]

I've never professed to know all at all.

I don't think as highly of my posts as 90% of the people here.

As good as Mason was at times last year, I view this mostly as good news, since it probably spurs the Spurs (no pun intended) into making at least a minor trade. If they can't get a major trade done (seems likely at this point), one that's a minor upgrade and shakes things up a little bit would still probably be nice to help wake the team up.

[ducks]

Knowing the crush that Pop has on Ginobili, I'd put the odds of trading him at about 5%

manu posted him and pop are not close anymore

manu wants extended

manu is not finley

[EricB]

Awesome, who,

Eric Musselman?

PJ Carleisimo?

Seriously.

Just quit then T Park. Don't watch any games and don't come to the forum.

So you gotta have a stacked team before you can believe you'll win anything. Is that what you are saying?

We've already got the talent on the team now, but it's just not meshing. Does than mean the Spurs should call the season off?

Did you have any clue in 2007 that the Spurs would win? I reckon you didn't before those playoffs started.

Since when did you become Argentinian?

[ducks]

wtf...

mason has sucked since the first half of the first season he was here

[ElNono]

manu posted him and pop are not close anymore

Actually Manu posted exactly the opposite of that. He said his friendship with Pop transcends the player-coach relationship.

Now, that doesn't mean the FO won't trade him.

[dbestpro]

Look at the teams that need 3 pt shooters. RMJ and Bonner could help these 8 teams that are the worst from 3 pt range.

pistons
nets
pacers
clippers
wolves
grizzlies
rockets
bulls

since when have you

Not having confidence in a group = quitting?

No, its just being realistic.

Im gonna go to the games, root like for em, but unless a trade is made or injuries, I don't think they will win the ring.

Its just plane reality. Sorry.

It is like he just makes stuff up. Manu said it is a tough situation, but that he values Pop and his relationship.

[Cane]

Its for the best of both parties but that X-Mas shot against the Suns will always be remembered in Spurs history

Thursday couldn't come soon enough.

Uh cross out the Nets Rockets and Grizzlies

Out of the rest of em, only the Bulls have players I'd be honestly interested in.

aj is avaible
right now he would be better then pop and I am not an aj fan

Did you think the Spurs would win it all around this time in 2007?

Most fans thought that we didn't have a chance around this time back then either.

If you did show me some quotes.

[EricB]

It is like he just makes stuff up. Manu said it is a tough situation, but that he values Pop and his relationship.

Yeah Pop and Manu are guys in retirement that will take a vacation together and not think about the old times, debate politics and do other things.

They are friends.

Hard not to with the time they've spent together and what they've all been through.

all teams have players better then mason

[ElNono]

It's also amazing how ducks will never fail to bring up his Manu hate in a completely unrelated thread. I mean, this is a 'Mason wants out' thread...
