agreed. this is bull .
They've looked absolutely awful all season with no outside shooters who are consistent in a league where the three point shot is valued more than ever.
There isn't a single team out West they can beat in a 7 game series, should have gone for the lottery pick.
Watch Pop get COTY honors for guiding this group of scrubs to a 1st round pasting.
“No one wants to face the Spurs in the first round”![]()
Exactly. Should have tanked at the first news that Kawhi was having problems coming back from injury.
Better never than late.
Um, the could probably take out Phoenix in 7 games.

Upvote +1 if Spurs are best 8 seed of all time

I don't think they'll need to tank. Seems like they are ready to drop the last 3 games and exit the playoffs.
if they tank it makes the LMA situation worse. He's not gonna want part of it, especially with the drama that PATFO has brought on Kawhi and forced him to stay away from the team
Maybe. I wanted the playoff experience for Murray, but the team might get humiliated and the Spurs need to rethink this roster anyways.
we make playoffs thats cool... if we don't slightly better draft pick.... win win in a ty situation.
They already made it worse by giving him a damn extension. But this should be old hat for him... be the man, squeak into the playoffs, take that pounding.
i’m always ahead of the curve. was saying the spurs should blow it up months ago.
Too bad for him that Stevens already coached a team without 3 of it's best players missing games either all season (Hayward), or for stretches throughout (Kyrie and Horford) to the second seed in the East.![]()
Horford played 69 games, aldridge 71 that’s close. Boston didn’t lose kyrie all year plus They have more good players than us.
tanking is a Dumb thing, you can’t tank with our roster you could just miss the playoffs.
Pop would never allow intentional tanking, he is a proven winner. However if there is truly friction with Kawhi if Spurs miss playoffs not only would they have a high 1st round draft pick but they could trade Kawhi and LMA and do a full rebuild and have picks galore like Celtics.
Even with our championship teams, I’ve never understood that quote...
Patty Mills isnt a starter. I was wrong about him. I used to think that the dude wasnt even in his prime back in the day and he was the future pg. wrong. D Murray should still be in college so he has upside, but still 2-3 years away from having an average mid range shot. Danny Green can still play D but because he cant dribble much & shoot teams can double LA. Gasol is done. Spurs need to make major changes this offseason. If the threat of Kawhi leaving is good for anything, its maybe the Spurs will make drastic moves if they intend to keep him one last season and pursuade him to stay. Eventually this cap change will cause teams to over pay average talent and we’ll be back to big 2 and 3 teams instead of super teams. Some of these rookie contracts are starting to expire and they will want large paydays.
Poop literally tanked for Duncan because he knew he needed to be carried.
Yep, lost season. If only Kawhi had said he was out this year, then we could have traded our vets and developed our young guys.
And just think this roster without KL is the same or better than OKC who has RW and some other so called megastars...
They have players on big deals that aren’t pulling their weight. Not even taking about Mills. He’s been about the same player he has always been, but Pau is really washed up and Tony looks done. That’s 3rd and 4th highest paid players in the team: $16 and $15 million who are bench players and some nights really subpar. There’s some cheap players in the team that if you have to play is a guaranteed loss, which means they aren’t really NBA caliber. Joff and Brandon Paul. At least Davis, and Bryn, have helped win some games occasionally and are in cheap deals but the other 2 are cheap but haven’t really given anything of worth to the team.
They need to rethink this roster anyways.
