Manu looks like he can just shoot 3's this days...
Well I guess we've learned that trading Richard Jefferson completely messed up our offensive flow. Looks completely discombobulated out there, which is probably because RJ is no longer with the team.
I think it must have also affected team chemistry and at ude, because I saw a real "losing" approach on the floor tonight. It was as if they didn't have the same desire to make shots as they normally do when they're hitting their shots.
Finally, it's worth noting that this team has now lost every game with Stephen Jackson in a Spurs uniform since 2004.

I'm still happy as , tbh.
Just need Diaw to come in and replace Blair/Bonner.
Spurs miss 8 Fts, lose by 7...
Overall I thought the Spurs played good. I liked what I saw from a lot of the Spurs players. Tony was off and forcing it, Manu was really off and that quick 3 with 1:23 left in the game was a poor decision in my opinion, as we should have set up and could have lived with a 2, being down by only 6 at the time.
Regardless, I like what I saw from Jack for sure, and Tiago did well as did Green and Neal.
Overall decent game, Dallas just brought it.
No. Manu has no value outside the Spurs really due to his age/injuries. Manu needs to keep his ass healthy and produce something though. Him being so injury prone and unreliable lately has hurt the Spurs and if they are to make a legit run, he needs to give them stability.
Quick look at the box score: rebounds and missed free throws.
Lost by 7 on a b2b on the road. Whatever.
I hope Manu apologizes to his teammates. What a ty, selfish performance.
On replay the pass from Kidd to Dirk read 15 sec should have been an 8 sec call. Of course, we dont get calls in Dallas.
3 days of practice time should work out well for the team... Tony needs to sit out though... he looks tired as ...
If Manu can stay healthy and allow Pop to develop a clear rotation...
They looked gassed. The energy just wasn't there.
He was chucking the shots, forcing them.. even the wide open ones weren't falling and he kept shooting
I'm alright with the loss tbh, I expected it..
but it is humorous to see a Manu homer back him up after that performance.
SJax and the young guys played with energy and toughness. Kawhi and DG being consistent is GREAT news.
reason we lost is Parker was tired and Manu played really really bad. simple. No need to panic, we defended Dallas well- they just made every three possible. We do it to other teams all the time. Just get a bunch of practices in before we see them again.
It's amazing how much less I hate Pop without RJ there for him to throw in and kill everything.
No
They are on the 2nd of a back to back. Not a losing at ude. Parker got a bit selfish and people weren't getting touches, but Dallas was playing good basketball all game and they hit their FTs.
You're reading too much into it. I am sure RJ won't be missed.
I was joking earlier about Manu, but my last few posts are dead serious.
of course, 11ast and only 1TO is "obviously hurting the team" for a PG...
CoM should wait a better opportunity IMO...
I'm ok with the loss too. I thought Manu tried to bring us back even though he's clearly still not in game shape thanks to Pop sitting him out...
But nobody cares about regular season championships... Now Manu just need minutes and Tony needs to rest...
Splitting the b2b @OKC and @DAL is a good result.
Some players were tired, some players are not in great shape, Pop needs to figure his roster...
When/If Spurs fix that, they will be significantly better. They won't be a contender because of their crappy defense and frontcourt but they should be fine.
I just know what I saw. The Spurs are now 0-1 without Richard Jefferson. At this rate we're at risk of missing the Playoffs completely.
Kidd 4-5 from downtown... -4 +/-.... he's just tired...
Not enough ball movement by our guards, and Manu rushing, and Pop leaving bad personel in the game WAY to long. Some one has got to drop off some AA pamplets at this dudes house, office and windshield on his car. I never understood double teaming the post if your man shoots a decent 3 point shot. Doesnt make sense stay at home.
Other than that im happy Jack is back!
I'm pretty sure he's joking.
Great offense beats great defense.. our defense was bad today as well..
We committed 24 fouls not even fouling to stop the clock, Mavs called for 15? Should tell you how we lost this game.
