    During an interviews some guy will ask Pop about Splitter. He will respond with some response about how Splitter has been injured so much in the past. Why doesn't he admit he wanted to play Bonner/Blair over Splitter in the past and that's why he didn't play sooner? Splitter's probably missed more games in his career due to DNP-CD's than injuries. I think the only reason Pop gets away with that is because most reporters haven't been following the Spurs and the ones that do are afraid to call Pop out.

    Because he's a liar, and never wants to admit he was wrong for not starting him sooner.

    I can understand the second part of your sentence, but a liar?

    Because Pop is trying to keep splitters value as low as possible.

    He has done this on multiple ocations.

    Manu was Trukoglu´s replacement in his first contract year with the Spurs.

    He benched Tony for Hill in 2010 playoffs. Tony´s contract year.

    He is not only the coach of this team.

    Been saying this for awhile.

    Before any popsucker runs in here - let us just call it as it is;

    Pop is doing a wonderful job this season - no doubt about it.

    Pop did up badly the last two seasons and is bold-faced lying about Splitter but no one calls him out about it.

    Like someone just responded above- who cares- we are winning...blah-blah.

    This is one reason why I didn't jump on the "let's hate on SJAX bandwagon"

    Because, just maybe, Pop DID play mind games with SJAX. You could also say that Pop played mind games with Splitter too- but maybe Splitter handled it better than SJAX? I don't know.

    Just speculation on my part tbh - but it is disturbing to see Pop continuing to say Splitter was always injured - when it is a bold-faced lie at best.

    As great a coach as he is - he is human and has made a few really questionable decisions- and yes Pop did favor Bonner over Splitter until it became blatantly obvious that this was indeed a very bad decision.

    No accident that the Spurs are in the finals now that Timmy has some NBA size playing next to him.

    Pop hater stroking orgy begins now.

    Don't care. He's starting. Spurs need three more wins. Let's keep our eye on the ball here, folks.

    Glad he's starting now, It was the right decision, and now we are in the NBA Finals. Oh, and same here with SJax

    Not hating on anyone- or Pop - just stating the OBVIOUS facts. Please remove your Popglasses.

    Unless you're in the locker rooms, all the practices, and all the meetings, there is no way you or anyone else could know what goes on in Spursland. Just enjoy the games and root for the Spurs to win their 5th NBA trophy!

    Splitter is padawan, the master has a plan. Do not question the master's plan.

    Yeah.

    You know we would have been champions the last two years if we had just played Splitter.

    This year has nothing to do with a Duncan resurgence, along with Danny Grreen and Leonard maturing.
    You have already proved yourself to be a poor example for Miss Cleo.

    yes nutt...

    Oh, no.

    Its all quite obvious to these master soothsayers. Pop hates Tiago so he did not play him. Tiago has never been injured or missed any camp or practice. It's the mystical hidden agenda they have stumbled upon.

    It's called confirmation bias. These guys have constructed an entire mythology to fit their rather narrow world views. They can't stand the rather substantial evidence to the contrary -- so much that they will say things like Splitter and Duncan are bald-faced liars because what they said didn't fit with the hater agenda.

    And if you dare question their agenda, they will engage in a personal flame war with you, which is all they can do in the end since all they really have to argue the actual point are their little fantasy narratives.

    Now that I have posted this, they will make it very personal for all of you. It's predictably fun after awhile.

    Just as I predicted.

    As you are so quick to say, you weren't there so you can't say anything. It would be hypocritical for you to do so.

    So you shouldn't be angry when you agree with me. Smack you head again.

    You have never been able to make a valid argument. Now you're just an ad hominem bot.
