Through their first 6 games as a Spur under Pop, no one has had as much success as DD and it's not even close. Not even TD produced as highly in his first 6 games under Pop. To me, that just speaks highly of his BBIQ that he's been able to produce like this in such a short amount of time under the most lauded and complicated system in the league (Dubs' system is little more than buy superstars tbh). Sure, he still has room to learn more from The System and get more comfortable from it but he seems quite comfortable already. And then you have other difficult factors to consider like playing with no real PG after playing with an All-Star PG for several seasons. It's impressive no matter how you look at it, tbh.
"The system" doesn't really exist anymore, at least on offense. Pop has said that he didn't try to change anything in DeMar's game like he tried to do with LMA.
DeMar is "grasping the system" so quickly because Pop molded it around him, not the other way around.
DeRozan is DeSystem :P
the system = give DeMar the ball and let him do what he does
It is the same system just DeRozan running it instead of Manu and TP.
You don't build a system out of Apocalypse, Fatty, Berta, Gasdone, Cuni and Rocky X... You do what ou can, which presently consists in gving the ball to your star to make play and ask the scrubs to feed off of him.
The system was Parker and Duncan. You had to fit around them because pop, wouldn't budge on them (for good reason, they're hof)
Now that there gone, the system is open to be created. Pretty exciting to imagine what pop will create by the end of the season
DDR is doing great because he's a marvelous bball player and he's got the freedom to show it. We're not seeing the Spurs trying to do the stuff they did, for example, in the 2014 championship season. They can't, for the reasons we all know.
Just btw, anybody seen the Bucks this year? Coach Bud is doing nice things with that team. It's rough and uneven, as you'd expect at this point, but that offense has hints of "beautiful" in it. Coach Bud was an assistant here during the glory years, of course. The Celtics might find themselves with a problem in the East this year. And so might the Raptors.....
Exactly. There isn’t a “system”. In a system you can plug in damn near anyone and the team would not miss a beat. Like when Curry missed a whoke first round of the playoffs and the Warriors still won with ease. THATS A SYSTEM!!!

I was really hoping Bud would be Pop's heir apparent but it is not to be.
DeMar DeZystem
lol no way, this is just having a lot more talent than the other teams, and illegal screens full time (system was what SA had in 2012-2014)
From the interviews I’ve seen w/DD, I don’t think Pop coulda imposed on him. Has an ‘Dont give a F whose been here before me’ at ude which is great. Like someone said previously Pop has revised the system around DD. Hopefully the team continues to gel and improve.
And what if Durant and Eliancito are out Einstein?
The system the worriers are left with is
I mean the Durant that they won a le and 73 games without? The same Durant that missed over a month with a knee sprain last season? That Durant or is it another one?And what if Durant and Eliancito are out Einstein?

You need good players for any system to work.Pop has always put his players in position to play to their strengths. Back to the old ,slow, boring 4 down postup game to the penetrating drives of Parker and Manu up to incorporating the iso game of Kawhi. And mixed in there was the "beautiful game" of 2014. Many more examples. DD is a very good and versatile basketball player and Pop will put him in position to succeed and give him a free hand to do so. There is no one Spurs system. Its called basketball.
Curry and Durant are the system.
Before that, Curry and Thompson were the system.
You think the '17 Warriors were going to do if Green and Barnes were leading the way?
My thoughts EXACTLY !!!
There is no system. DeRozan and Gay are still ISO'ing, LA is still fading away, Mills still blows...
If anything our offense is thriving because Pop is staying away with his sets that take forever to manifest on top of the key.
I find it absolutely laughable when I ready on social media how Pop has unlocked a DeRozan we've never seen before
Yep, I think he's got himself a great job. There is no way that he's leaving Giannis. Unless Giannis himself leaves, I don't think there is any way that Bud would leave that job.
What system are you talking about? The one that has them bottoms in 3 point attempt, defensive rebounding, defense, shot attempts at the rim?

Glad to see there are still fans who believe in the renowned "Spurs System" at this point in time. Personally I think it died with the Big 3 era.
“Derozan and aldridge midrange chuck system” is what we have right now.
