He's a better player than green tho and deserves more minutes than him
excuse me simmons leonard is better then you
deserves more shots
He's a better player than green tho and deserves more minutes than him
Well, bye...
I believe it. Pop doesn't like athletic role players. He hates guys that take a chance and go out of the system to make a play. He wants guys that stay in their box. Simmons is too athletic for pops liking.
The Spears reporting is interesting. For all of Pop's "liberal" views, he sure does seem to put the thuggish players in the dog house in a hurry.
yeah cus handing out 10 million to a marginal bench player already at his peak averaging 6/2/1 a game is totally going to improve the team. you're an idiotlike i said, stick to posting ralphie memes or posting about the kardashians numb nuts, you dont know about ball despite routinely gargling them
simmons drives better better jump shooter but simmons is not a better three point shooter
I would say green edges simmons out on d
pop did the same thing with tp not just simmons and demond
Green is a good 3 point shooter not great, way too hot and cold. Plus he can't create his own shot
Seems like the real reasons for Simms being renounced.
His can't be true. Spurs are the reason he's even in the NBA and now they handicapped him?
true they both have their weaknesses
I wanted simmons back
pop does not like manu drives turnovers but pop now trust him
simmons was too impatient for that
The two don't have to be mutually exclusive.
It's not true. RC was literally just on TV 3 days ago saying they were trying to bring back Simmons. Why would they do that if he hates Pop lmfao
Hmmm, I always thought it was his turnovers and erratic play that held him back.
this stupid bastatd manages to put Manu in every n post,![]()
If Simmons had a solid 3 point shot I think the Spurs pay him big

Gregg Popovich Sees Much to Like in Jonathon Simmons
Feb 2016
“He’s pretty fearless,” Popovich said of Simmons prior to a win in Dallas last week. “He just goes and plays. It’s kind of like Manu [Ginobili]. He just dives into the game and he competes. He’s really got great athletic skills and he’s learning the game. Quick learner, good worker, he’s got a chance to be a longtime player in the league if he pays attention and sticks to it.”

Can't find any proof that tweet has any validity. Marc Spears hasn't posted a thing from what I've seen
Well, did not see this coming. Simmons was handicapped. That's the WHOLE ING POINT of being a RFA. If the Spurs did offer him 9 million, then he ed up by turning it down. I'm glad the guy believes in himself, and he doens't owe the Spurs , but if this went down like it looks like it did then I'm dissapointed in him. Spurs must really be looking to make a move next summer if they refused the Chandler deal. I think that would have been a nice piece. I do think its somewhat stupid they just give up their leverage, though. Why just let him become an UFA?
He's reaching - I mean he talks like he actually has an idea about the decisions that are made at a place such as the Spurs' FO level. A model franchise.
i saw him say it on ESPN a while ago with whatever show he is on with rachel nichols. but he also seemed like he had no idea of what he was talking about.
It's clear Spurs game plan is to attempt to compete the best they can now with both knowns and unknowns (such as the extend of TP's injury and recovery) and have enough cap space to play 2018 comfortably while the other 3-4 big teams in the West will be in cap next year. This is very Spurs-y IMO
Spurs are losing athleticism fast; first Dedmon, now this.
