Yeah Messina choked it away. Get Patty out of there.
Why the didn't we run a play for Danny Green or Davis Bertans at the end?
What a piss poor job he did tonight.
Has no feel for the game, and is oblivious to in game adjustments that need to be made.
I blame him for the loss tonight.
No Lauvergne in the 4th was inexcusable. Patty 37 minutes...and inbounding the ball.

He's also a foreigner. I have yet to see a foreigner who can be a successful head coach in this league.
No.

Not his fault the team has no depth at the 5 tbh. Agree in Mills playing 37 mins, but other than that there wasn't much else he could do.
If Paddy mills can be a starting SG and a "closer" despite being piss poor at everything he does, Messina can be a head coach. Should he be is another story altogether.
Anyone would've been better than Alligator Arms; and in any event, there is no excuse for two Spurs to not box out a noodle like Davis, tbh.
Lauvergne could have played more than 40 seconds in the 4th, I think.
Lauvergne played only 19 minutes.
There was a lot more Messina could have done.
Messina's stat of the night
What choice did he have? No Aldridge and Gasol there...
Nah, you called it earlier. Pop had a hand in this, too. Plenty of accolades to go around.
Laughverne is a terrible basketball player. It's not a coincidence the Spurs were up double digits mostly when he was out there yet, he still ended up with a -13 +/-.
Joff acquitted himself pretty well tonight. He did have a couple of defensive lapses, but so did everybody else.
He's been much better lately and had 14 and 7 tonight -- was playing well. How he only plays 19 minutes when LA and Pau are out is inexcusable. Especially when Patty gets 37 minutes shooting 1 for 6 from 3.
Messina doesn't get the simple concept of playing your five best players in the final four minutes. Why Green was out for most of that is mind boggling to me. I didn't catch most of the game though; maybe they said he was dealing with an injury?
Seven rebounds; that a career high for Alligator Arms?
Not related to tonight, but I'm not a fan of him and never understood the hype surrounding him coming to the league..
Into his 4th season, what has Messina brought to the table from a coaching philosophy stand point on defense or offense? You would think if he did, we would have read about it already in one of those Zach Lowe long ass breakdown columns..The fact that he only interviewed once for a HC job (Memphis, I think ) is telling.
but guys if we fire pop its addition by subtraction!
Among other blunders, he threw that game for sure.
His career high in rebounds is 13 tbh.
He should be averaging double digits per 36, tbh. Playing on the floor with all those midgets and all.
Just verifies what we pretty much knew.
Pops yes man cuck.
he's been washed up for 15 years now
This was the killer right here. How the are you gonna draw up a play that has your undersized-PG who can't pass inbounding the ball for the win?
