    Quick recovery my ass... obviously the ankle was still gimpy. But I suppose you'll claim it was well worth the risk of a re-injury to get a few reps in a "throwaway" game ... sure.
    Could you point out your vehement objection to his playing against the Wolves? I didn't read many posts here that day.

    I just addressed it, coach.
    Addressed my question? No, you haven't. You're just a parrot that keeps repeating the same thing over and over.

    But at least now Manu4tres is trying to answer it for you, and save your rep.

    Look up, coach. I said the same thing before he did.

    Once you get that through your head, why don't you answer this:

    I didn't object.. I had no idea his ankle was that gimpy. That's the job of the coach/trainers to know that kind of thing. Obviously it didn't take much to re-tweak the thing. So it was a very costly loss for a "throwaway" game. I guess we can sit and argue that Pop didn't know how gimpy the ankle was, but I can trump that by using your own argument .. that it was a "throwaway" game so he shouldn't have even taken the risk of playing him.

    Check. Mate.

    Too late, I already trumped you with your argument for getting reps.

    Check. Mate.

    And you didn't even notice it.

    Bonus.

    Thanks for leading with that, btw.

    Twice.

    Damn, I'm good.

    Not really, you're just easily bested.

    I used the only real logic you presented to win the argument and now you're all butthurt.

    Remember:No, you didn't.

    I didn't object to him coming back against the wolves because I figured the spurs were actually trying to win games and move up in the standings to play a banged up jazz team. You know, maybe it might be worth the risk then...

    Apparently that wasn't the case however.

    If I was going to throw a game like you say Pop's plan was I would have sat Hill. So all this proves is that Pop might not have been throwing the game all the way. It was a calculated risk that backfired. Like many of his "calculated risks" have this season. (See: Raptors game 1/3/2010)

    I think Pop is actually hurting Mason by playing him, since Mason is just not responding...

    Playing any player at any time is a calculated risk.

    I doubt Hill was scheduled to play much more than he did in Minnesota. They probably had it all calculated.

    Like you said, coach: he was getting some reps.

    Calculatedly.

    Horray! He got a few reps with guys he probably won't see much of in the playoffs. (Mason/Boner). I'm glad Pop's thinking ahead at least.

    I concede. You are superior.

    Reps are reps, coach. Last I checked five play at a time.

    Since you tried to argue a game where Manu Ginobili and Time Duncan (I used their full names in case you need to Google them) were held out was not a throwaway game, I must agree with your declaration that I am superior to you, coach.

    You simply gotta get me hooked up with some of that good sheeit Chump.. then when I watch the games and Pop's all agitated and yelling and parading around ripping new asses apart and risking playing key guys with gimpy ankles or whatever it will actually look like Pop being laid back with a big ol' smile and a What, me worry "I could care less because this is a throwaway game" at ude..

    Pop knows Mason can shoot. When a shooter is in a slump, you tell him to shoot more. Pop knows that we are a better team with all of our players performing up to their potential. Mason wouldn't have found his stroke sitting on the bench. It's a shame that he can't seem to find it on the floor.

    As for Mason being in a contract year - the Spurs have always treated players well. They have stuck with injured players that most teams would have cut loose. Pop has made calls to help players land a spot with another team, when there weren't roster spots for them here. When they make a trade, they often try to find a team that is a good fit for the player as well.

    It makes a difference to me to support a team that has character. And it makes a difference to the players, too. And it has an impact on being able to sign quality players who have character themselves.

    So if a player is in a slump you move him to the starting lineup so not only he feels more pressure to perform, but when he doesn't the team's chemistry goes to pot. Yep this makes perfect sense.

    lol "hard" questions.

    What is your point, again? That Pop didn't care about the game? Sure didn't appear that way but then again, I'm not baked over here either...

    You certainly haven't answered it. You sure don't like having your words thrown back in your face, do you, coach?

    What is your point, again?
    My point is you haven't shown any knowledge of the Spurs players named Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili

    That Pop didn't care about the game? Sure didn't appear that way but then again, I'm not baked over here either...
    No, you just aren't very intelligent, coach.

    Do you know who Tim Duncan and Manu Ginobili are?
