    Uhhh he’s been saying this for years now. So no he hasn’t ever embraced it not even in 2014.
    /thread

    just pop being pop. nothing new here. but now we suck because of kawhi so everyone is freaking out that he doesn't care anymore or doesn't understand how to evolve.

    obviously he hates the way the game is, but doesn't mean he won't use it to his advantage.
    his mistake was not sticking to his mantra "defense first" mentality in the offseason. murray isn't enough to keep at as a top 3 defense. get 1 defensive wing and we would be better.

    his years are numbered (as they should be) but his comments are nothing new.

    Team that has the personnel to hit threes vs one that does not. Results in blowout.

    It’s the new (lame) NBA. It’s gonna be a long season.

    no, team that has players that can attack the rim creating open spaces for the shooters against one that does not, or team that can defend attempts to attack the rim against one that does not

    IT'S TIME TO ELIMINATE THE NBA'S CORNER THREE



    Even four years ago, that wasn’t the case.

    No NBA team attempted more than 26 three-pointers per game in 2013–14.

    This season, the Houston Rockets attempt 42.2 per game, and

    26 of the league’s 30 teams are trying 26-plus per game.

    What’s more, Houston averaged more than 50 such shots during the preseason — the NBA’s annual test kitchen.

    That onslaught is a clear sign the trend is far from over.

    This is a really interesting idea, but I don't see the league ever considering it.

    Somewhat similar thing has happened in baseball, where the game has devolved largely into a HR contest. Strikeouts and HRs are way up, stolen bases and small ball in general way down. Less strategy.

    The lowest common denominator morons love the long balls.

    Got Sirius xm dirt cheap on some cyber shopping deal

    Been listen to NBA radio with Leglar and some other guy

    to paraphrase or Cliffs

    "Not Like Pop can waive his magic wand"
    "How did SA front Office end up with a dearth of talent"
    "where ONE GUY (Dejuante) missing makes you a bottom 2 Defense""I thought the SYSTEM was supposed to make them a great Defensive team always, isn't that what Pop is KNOWN for?'
    "Rick(Carlisle) has THE RIGHT GUYS PLAYING AT THE RIGHT POSITIONS AT THE RIGHT TIME"


    Ended by saying the SA and Pheonix game will be an offensive explosion because both teams play no D.


    Most of the media didn’t think Spurs would make the playoffs..including Vegas.

    It’s all about your expectations going into the season...and I do believe losing your starting PG literally a week before the season isn’t easily to deal with...

    If any team should be getting ripped it’s HOU who 95% of people had 2nd in West. They’re the team extremely underachieving meanwhile Spurs are hovering around most projected

    Lost a lot of defensive personel. Lost our best defender from last season. Lost our defensive leader on the floor. No one is communicating like they should in a team defense. Its not like Carlisle has been winning 50+ games this past decade consistently .... Don't want to hear about right guys playing in the right positions from him. Still need talent.

    :If you made threes and the other team didn't, you win.
