Is This the Worst Pop Has Coached With the Spurs?

[HI-FI]

TBH, Carlisle was going to run that collection of chuckers into the ground to get a win tonight. The Spurs should have been more interested, and they hardly played Duncan and Parker in the second half. Leonard and Splitter were not out there a ton either.

Pop wanted to give Parker and Duncan a light load in the second half anyway. Pop wanted them to have something in the tank for an injured OKC team on Wed.

Trust me, Monta Ellis will have more 4-16 games than 16-27 games the rest of the season. I really despise the Mavericks and their D-Bag fan base. They will swallow any crap that Cuban dishes out.

Cosigned.

I'll wait until the playoffs. I think there's a combination of not wanting to show your cards, and also him really trying to play guys that feel like competing, which doesn't seem to be there every night.

It's not all on Pop... players need to respond, and they've done it for stretches at a time.

Add this with him walking out of the tunnel game 1 of the playoffs with no beard - boom.

He coached worse when they tanked in 1996-97

[Budkin]

Let's just say he's nowhere near Coach of the Year this year.

Pop has got to learn how to stop these guys from going off against us. That's how you lose games and playoff series.

So Pop was ok with losing to the Mavs as long as he had a decent chance to win against the 8th seed? Or do you think almost every head coach is more concerned with giving a good show at home to season ticket holders than he is on the road?

I'm not talking about just tonight, but all season. His lineups and rotations have been garbage, and he refuses to take responsibility when he clearly s up. The 1-6 OT record speaks to mental weakness, which is caused by poor coaching more than anything.

WTF are you watching when you have the Spurs on TV.? How can you legitimately gripe about his overall coaching, when he has had to deal with numerous, early season injuries to Leonard and Parker? Not to mention Splitter's annual calf injuries and Mills trying to get back to form, following his shoulder surgery? How can you expect this team to play like last years team with all these injuries?

Earlier in the injuries were an excuse, but everyone has been back and relatively healthy for two months now and he still trots out horrible rotations and plays big minutes to players who shouldn't be getting them. He also has more double standards than he's had in years past that very well may cost the Spurs important pieces come the offseason.

If the rotations players were consistently playing well, you think he would continue to change his lineups? Which bench player has be consistent all season?

Therein lies the problem; Pop likes to put in bench players like Beli when Green or Leonard make little mistakes, but when Beli s up he doesn't do anything. It creates an anxiety for players that can impact their performance on the court, and even hurt the entire team's cohesion and chemistry.

So your trying to tell me Pops ing with the players heads,? Are the player's that soft and how do you know this? Why wasn't this a problem last year? Sorry dude, you full of , your Pop hate is clouding you better judgment.

It wasn't a problem last year because they had the ultimate motivation and Pop actually coached at an elite level outside the Dallas series. I've always been a big Pop supporter, even when he's ed up. The fact of the matter is I call it as I see it, and this year his coaching has been underwhelming.

Replacing Bud with Messina was a huge downgrade tbh
