    LA is a big market team that requires superstars for the organization to have any success. Without Kobe/LeBron type players that team is absolute . They have plenty of depth and young talent and it doesn’t mean
    You could literally replace LA with San Antonio and you're post would still be accurate. Never heard of a team winning championships from charisma, for ude and togetherness without having superstar players in the mix. Name me the last team to win a championship without having superstar talent?

    OK, my first post. I am very surprised and disappointed so many people show such lack of respect towards quite possibly the best coach in the history of the NBA. Are you aware he's won five les in the past 20 years? For the NBA, that's pretty amazing, unparalleled even, especially for a small market team. Lakers have 5, Heat have 3, Warriors have 3 in the same timespan. Are you aware that Popovich built, quietly, unassumingly, behind the scenes, another le-winning roster in 2016, only for that imbecile Pachulia to destroy the franshise with one movement if his talentless, re ed foot? Spurs were 23 up at the Oracle, not accidentally at all.

    Now, I am not blind. The season has been hot ans cold so far. This was a frustrating game at Utah. But, we were without Gay and White, and Dejounte of course. What worries me is when I see that Popovich can't find any solution for the opponent who keeps abusing the same tactic. We got killed on the pnr and the only thing the Coach tried was the zone in the 2nd, which failed miserably. I am afraid the late switch pnr defense has been figured out by teams after the initial good effect and we now can't seem to stop anything. Hopefully, Pop will find some solutions and we will make the playoffs. Then, it's reckoning time in the summer before I believe Pop's final season. If we can get a good 3&D wing, recover Dejounte, and get another scorer to ho with LMA and DD, we can contend again since the GSW are likely to disband and it will be open hunt season.

    Just how great was Tim Duncan to turn a slightly better than average head coach into one of the greatest in NBA history? Where's Duncan's statue already?

    There were better players and rosters who haven't won the ring in the meantime. Pop did it 5 times. Duncan wasn't MJ.

    What has that senile done without Duncan and Kawhi? The old man has said Duncan was the franchise himself. That's why he planned to retire when he did, so he wouldn't be exposed as the fraud we're seeing today.

    You are a very angry little man. Must be impotence. It's good you are venting here and not in the streets, though. What has Jackson done without MJ and Kobe? What did Auerbach do without Russell? Imbecile.

    Deflecting like a pop sucker with its back on a wall would

    They said Phil wouldn't win without Jordan, he did. They said he wouldn't win without Shaq, he did. , he won with Kobe shooting the Lakers out of games... the GOAT.

    Crater face is no Phil.

    sorry to destroy your dreams, but if you understood the salary cap you would know that you'll most likely see the same exact team + Dejounte Murray and a rookie or 2 who will spend the entire season in the G-League next season. Even if they waive and stretch Pau the Spurs will still operate over the cap and resign Rudy Gay. If they don't move at least one of LA, DeFrozan or Mills (and let's be real, they will keep all 3) then the only thing available to them is the MLE which is around 9.5 million. That means they might be able to add 1 player and that one player most likely won't be a starter.

    That's why a lot of people here were saying we need to trade for a 3-and-D wing now. What you want to add is 2 starting level players + Murray and that definitely won't happen next season

    You can easily trade on draft night and likely is the most telling time to trade is at draft night.

    so you actually think the Spurs have something worth trading that will get them a higher pick? What is that? Pau Gasol's dead body for 7 million? Patty Mills for 12? Bryn Forbes?

    You've got that right. Duncan didn't need an MVPippen to carry him. He did the carrying.

    They're on the same level. Duncan is the best player post-Jordan. Rankings are arbitrary, but Jordan and Duncan are both in the top tier, and that's not even controversial.

    I have a special sale this week on the Brooklyn Bridge in North Dakota. For a measly $999.99 it is yours. Even better is some prime ocean front property just 36 miles outside of Oklahoma city. Many movie stars are moving there for the low taxes. I can let you have it for $19.99/acre if you purchase at least 100 acres. I can provide a horse drawn carriage to take you there. I can also put you up in the finest $6.00/night motel in the city. The roaches and rats are free of charge. Don't be stupid and pass this up. It will go fast to other buyers smart enough to know a good deal when they see one.

    the arguments in the vid are terrible, basically treats early pop and late pop as the same coach when his ability to evolve is one of his great traits. So spurs won thanks to the corner 3, and not their dominant bigman? Arsenal was the first football club to sign a lot of foreigners???Re ed arguments.

    Wenger is known for being a loser, pop is considered one of the goats, no surprise idiots like tgy can't tell the difference.. only similarity is that spurs and arsenal compete against teams with more money and prestige

    Why is that funny? Because ESPN has sold a narrative for 30 years telling you it was? I understand. But back in reality, Tim Duncan had taken more players to rings by his mid 20's than Jordan had his entire career. Proving that he was truly the reason for the rings, and not elite teammates propping him up.
    Which elite teammates? I guess I really don't know basketball if Luc Longley and Horace Grant are better than David Robinson, if Ron Harper and Kerr are better than Tony Parker and Mills, if Randy Brown is better than Danny Green, if Pippen is much, or at all, better than Leonard, and, crucially, if Judd Bueschler is better than Ginobili. People mention Rodman, but he was washed up when he joined, despite having a monster rebounding and defensive nifht every so iften. You won't find a single non-Spurs fan who will say Duncan is better than Jordan. There is nothing Duncan does better than Jordan apart from rebounding, which us also questionable if you include the size variable, and scoring off the glass. ESPN can push the narrative all they like, I have my own eyes and also all the coaches and experts go with MJ as the GOAT, apart from the jealous s from the Bad Boy Pistons and a few others with personal agenda.

    Horace Grant absolutely was better than David Robinson, for longer, when you're talking about David Robinson the teammate of Tim Duncan. As far as the 2 players over their entire careers, of course Robinson blows him out of the water. That isn't what we're talking about. Scottie Pippen, for example, is better than any player Tim Duncan played with his entire career. Dennis Rodman is arguably the greatest defensive player of all-time. Steve Kerr is arguably the greatest 3 point shooter to ever live. Ron Harper was an elite defensive player.

    Duncan does a ton of things better than Jordan. He plays INFINITELY better defense and was a thousand times more impactful on the defensive end. People act like Jordan was this flawless player. Couldn't be further from the truth. He couldn't shoot the 3; he had no range. He would take terrible, contested shots and not look for teammates. Speaking of teammates, he was a horrible teammate. He gets away with this because of the apologists who try to spin it as 'being a compe or'. If you're young, think of Tom Brady... remember how the referee threw a flag for just touching his shoulderpad? That was the epitome of the relationship Michael Jordan had with the referees. It's a lot easier to dominate a game if your defender isn't allowed to play defense.
    I've just figured it out. You don't actually watch basketball and you can't be older than 30. Pippen vs Leonard is debatable. Whatever Harper was, Parker is a miles better player, especially on offense. Dennis Rodman was a beast in the 80s and part of 90s, but the Bulls version was anything but the best defensive player of all time. Steve Kerr was an elite shooter, but the amount of shooters Duncan had around him is incomparable. Horace Grant was a decent role player. Don't mention him in any serious basketball discussions, people will laugh at you. Robert Horry, Steven Jackson and, yes, Steve Kerr all had greater impact on Duncan's career than Grant had on Jordan's.
    Yeah, right, Duncan was better defensively... I guess that's why Jordan was a perennial all-defensive team player, had multiple seasons with 200 steals and a 100 blocks as A SHOOTING GUARD IN A CENTER-DOMINATED LEAGUE. Ultimately, Parker, Ginobili, Leonard, Robinson, Mills, Green, Horry, Jackson, Bowen, Barry, etc. blow Pippen, Grant, Rodman, Kerr, Bueschler, Longley, Wennington out of the water. Go to sleep now.

    The are you talking about? Horace Grant was a decent roleplayer? ROFL Horace Grant was an all-star and a 4x all-defensive team player. Talking about people will laugh at me bringing him up. Dude, it's blatantly obvious from you saying that, that you know jack about the NBA. Pipe down, take notes and then speak on the NBA after a few months of note-taking.
    Jordan Jockers act like everyone else on those Bulls teams was a scrub for the sake of their narrative.

    Quite the contrary, I was serious as . So I take it that you are not interested in any of these fantastic deals...! Your loss will be somebody else's gain. However, only 9 posts using your new alias has not helped you get any smarter than with your old alias. Have fun playing your little video war games 24/7 in your parents basement or attic. Not sure which they grounded you to. Just wait until they find out you hooked up to your neighbor's cable service.......illegally! Have a good one, kiddo.

    Manager turnover in the EPL is very high. You don't stay with 1 club (in London) for that long as a loser.
