Yeah no , Pop the genius didn't make a change until Kyrie was already rolling. Can't let him get hot otherwise no can stop him as we learned last year.
The only real question about Thurs. is who will TP guard? Irving took the fattest of s on him last time.

OP come on son. You're better than this.
Pop was doing his thing of not playing his cards against a potential Finals opponent. He might just roll with that strategy again but who knows?
no. Legit discussion thread, imo
Just rest them next week on the b2b's against the suns and lakers. Shrinkwrap and bubblewrap them and then open our toys against the Dubs, tbh.
Didn't Pop rest everybody against the Champs Heat det one time he was fined? It was on the road, but he'll sit guys if he thinks they need the rest.
The only reason I can think of Pop resting players is not to show his full hand against a potential finals opponent.
Away from home. He usually already works the minutes so they specifically play at home.
That was on a b2b schedule. No point in doing it this time at San Antonio unless Pop has a legitimate agenda against TNT, which he doesn't.
who hacked Nono's account tbh?
Only player that I could understand benching is Manu, just cuz he took a hard fall tonight and is coming off a back 2 back, he could probably stand to get some rest. But even then I think he should be good to go, like others have pointed out they have a couple days off after this game anyways
Just rest TP. He earned it. All that dribbling and shooting.
I do wish we had the 2nd game of the night, though. Why the isn't this the main event matchup?
I don't really care about catching the Dubs at the standing, but inflicting a loss on the Cavs is very strategic for the team's post season interest.
Spurs have has a weak schedule and this is a nice test. The Spurs won't get as many tough games considering the scheduling of the Warriors games at the end of the season. We need to play it.
Pop was resting Butler, Bonner, Ray, West for that particular reason.![]()
Our game against the Warriors is on NBA TV![]()
Luckily, I'll be at that game! The lone Spurs fan in the arena, probably, lol.
I'd much rather have a four game lead than a two game lead on the Cavs. I don't consider the Thunder a serious threat to pass us, tbh.
Yes they will. If the Spurs make the Finals, it's because they just beat the thunder and warriors lol. No way they'd lose to cavs
I want to see the matchups between us and cavs/warriors just like anyone else, but I'd honestly lmao if Pop rested the big three and/or Aldridge in every prime matchup![]()
Good luck fam. I'm sure you'll have a few buddies tho
