With the way he's playing, Detrashan will probably do that.
We're gonna let Derozan close out.
You know Pop never wants to show up a former assistant.

I actually wondered the same thing. If we're handing games to the got damn Bulls...why not throw Jim and Tony a bone, too? Probably will shift the defense out of the lane to give Tony a clear path on the final play.
Ha. My guess would be cause Boylen was coming off some drama with his team, players saying he's not Pop,
not showing up for practice etc...
Hornets are at least a playoff team for the moment.
Well .
When I saw beli was out it was all but confirmed.
When I saw Borrego went to Hornets, it was confirmed.
True true.
I think the entire team has embraced gifting wins. DeMar seems to be on vacation right now.
Gasol 11 min
cun. 11 min
Pond. 7 min
looks like a gift to me
Yeah, when I saw Poindexter check in I knew we were throwing the game. The Hornets give Pop an A tonight.
Lol the arrogance of this coach to be throwing games when his team is middle of the pack.
But Pop is never deserving of criticism according to some on here
Yeah Pop threw that game what a arrogant prick
Wasnt the Lamarcus surrounded by midgets lineup? Demar at pf. Derrick at sf , bryn at sg and lead shorty patty at pg. 1gift would of been enough.
the best thing is he's saying in the postgame interview that they played a bad first half. Well if you play Cunningham and Pondexter together in the first and then tighten your rotations in the 2nd half, how is that the teams fault?
But who would you play?!
we had only 7 rotational players available and at least 2 of them (with the heaviest minutes) played like trash so Spurstalk was shouting “sub this scrub”
we are not a deep team
How would you distribute minutes?
well obviously you don't play Pondexter at all. Cunningham can play spot minutes, but that line up of Poeltl, Bertans, Cunningham, Pondexter and Mills was re ed. Pop always played DeRozan with the bench and also did that in the 2nd half. He should've done that. The rotations in the 2nd half were fine, just play them in the 1st and you might be able to rest guys in the last quarter or at least have a lead when you play your re ed line up. Bertans played 29 minutes, give him Pondexter's 7. Forbes also shouldn't play 37 minutes with the way he was playing. White could've played about 4 minutes more and Mills played way better than Forbes in the 2nd half.
I agree that Cun + Pon lineup was bad but most people here wanted Pop to play DeMar less, not more considering how bad he was. We had only 7 playable players and only one of them played well.
I would mostly put that loss on DeMar with Pop / Forbes etc sharing the remains 40% of blame
At one point, he had both Cunningham and Pondexter on the floor.
If thats not throwing the game, I don't know what is.
10/10 thread
JP, Dw, Forbes, and Bertāns easily could have played more minutes and the above players could have played at different spots of the game. Without a doubt Pop at least reduces his chances to win in games like these. Don’t doubt it for ansecond
I didn't say play him more, I said play him with the bench
Genarally I agree with you and would stagger LA-DeMar more.
But we had no depth at SF whatsoever. Playing DeMar with the bench basically means White-Forbes-Mills when DeMar is not playing with the starters.
But anyway we were in the game in the 4th with the rotation we had and poor decisions by DeMar as a primary ball handler basically costed us the game
