I don't think he put Kawhi in the best position to succeed today. Why not give him more looks in the post so he can take advantage of his size? Played into Allen's defensive strengths imo.
Nah...
Waited too late to get Parker out of the game
Waited till the 5 minute mark to get Aldridge back in the game
Oh and this team for some odd reason still wants green To dribvle the ball..I'm looking at you Starters.
Stop giving the ball to Green so he can dribble ball.
You would thinl they've learned by now.

Pop forcefeeding Aldridge early even if it means the team takes the Ls...that sound like the game-plan was the last to games..At least we won with him being a defensive anchor..
The offense has looked like dog since they started to force feed Aldridge.
Stop with that . Its impossible to generate decent offense with a jumpshooting big.
Makes me wonder of his Heart Condition was really a "heart" condition and his feelings got hurt.
Talking about forcefeeding LMA. In the last two games he took most shots than any other Spurs, they lost the two games. Amazing, right?
Tonight, Kawhi took 2 shots in the 3rd quarter, LMA...11.
I guess, it's hard to take over a game when the best player of the team doesn't have the ball in his hands.
Kawhi shot .40 FG% against Atlanta too, the difference was that without Parker and LMA, he took 9 more shots and was aggressive all game.
Forceeding LMA killed Kawhi tonight
It's just one game, Pop will be fine.
Like he was fine in last playoffs?
Refusing to play Kawhi as much as KD? Spurs got outplayed by 40 points per 100 p when Kawhi was on the bench.
Resufing to play LMA at C with one of Boris/West instead of putting those two together? Spurs were outrebounded by OKC bigs.
Pop drawing two consecutive plays for Parker and LMA to close game 5 of OKC when they couldn't hit the ocean in that game? Spurs missed a crucial home game...

Pop only wants to win if his team can survive his traps.
He is a top 5 coach all time.. God you es are whiny.. Lets get Scott Brooks to coach us. He has lots of rings.
I guess a regular coach with prime Tim Duncan and young Parker/Manu as supporting cast, plus the best perimeter defender of those days like Bruce, could have won some rings, too.
Anyway, Pop's a top 5 coach All Time but he's getting old and losing his fire.
I don't think it's that much Pop. There are guys who had not been playing well. It was great to see Lamarcus and Simmons finally find their games and hit shots, but there are others coming back from injury or out of rhythm.
And credit to Memphis they made a lot of 3 pt shots.
Still
That comfy poster dont understand coaches have a timer just like players, maybe he is too young to or has a short memory span to remember how Phil Jackson ended.
If the starting PG has been plagued by injuries in the last 5 years and has been negative in last 2 playoffs, he shouldn't have a huge contract or the starting spot.
And credit to Memphis they made a lot of 3 pt shots.
Still
If a coach doesn't get anything from his guards in last seasons but doesn't make a move in the summer or at the trade deadline
If he puts some horrible bigman defender to close a game just for offense but he can't take advantage of his size...
If he puts a PG who turns the team best player into a passive guy parking in the corner...
I'd call it, coach's fault.
Hopefully they don't need a 0-4 playoffs series loss like that Lakers-Mavs, to realize it.
They shouldn't forcefeed any player still need ball movement especially these days. But if your gonna forcefeed LMA why do it against gaysol, one of the better big defenders?
Exactly what I said!!!^^^
Duncan's product
Just make sure to be ready for another 2nd round exit
Or maybe Billy Donovan could be bought out.
52-16 with Tim retired. And the team is like 12-3 without Aldrige and Leonard last 2 years. Yeah Pop sucks..
Pop is still on pace to win over 60 games the season after Tim Duncan retiring.
So u are satisfied with regular season wins?
Marty Shottenheimer, Mike D'Antoni etc.
We're looking for Championships.
Pops first 4 are getting older by the day. 2014s was great but the passing game since (playoffs) seems to be completely abandoned in favor outdated iso ball.
2014 I also wonder how much of that was Timmy Duncar driven, not Pop.
The Spurs are not playing well and don't seem to have an iden y other than "we're a one-man show" as they head into the playoffs.
the ball movement, we gotta get LMA some more touches
not going to complain about the Spurs in the 2 seed. Higher than I thought they would be in the off-season.
2 seed is better than sinking down to lottery team status.
