Yeah, thats is embarassing, seriously.
There's no other explanation for those ed up lineups, tbh. Pop had Green, Splitter, Ginobili, Leonard and Jack, then subbed in and had a lineup of Joseph, De Colo, Neal, Bonner and Mills. What. The. . The game was close and then Pop went full re on the subs utions. Either he's a ing moron, or he's a great coach who has a plan. Pick one.

The way some of you complain you'd probably rather have a guy with no Xs and Os knowledge coaching this team like Scott Brooks.
Then again he wouldn't go mad scientist on the rotations and play Parker 38 mpg and Duncan 34 mpg, tbh.
"His ugly jumper" ?
timvp, a couple years ago, you were praising his shooting form
This is what I've been wondering. Sure he gave up with the 4 pgs and Bonner, but the game wasn't going to be an historical ass kicking with the previous line-up. Pop knew damn well it was going to get much uglier and figured he'd at least have something motivational to get out of it.
You've got to wonder what would happen if Pop didn't go mad scientist and just played regular rotations.
I don't agree with intentionally losing games but I do think it is crucial to be able to respond well to losses.
The Spurs fivepeat from 2003-2007 guaransheed
That said the Blazers love running up the score, I was actually gunning for the Knicks to blow them out last season.
The Blazers love running up the score on the one team that won't give them a flagrant-two for doing it.
