The Biggest Disappointment of this season is?

[alpha_HaZE]

Mine is all the injuries we had thus far. If you think about it, we haven't been healthy for most of Pop's career, from Timmy, to Manu, to Kawhi.

This past summer, when it become clear that we traded defence for offence, I was hopeful that at least we have a healthy team. We replaced older and injury prone players for younger and durable ones. Say what you want about DeMar, but in the past years he has been one of the most durabe player in this league. Yet, even before the season started, DJ, White, Lonnie were all injured On top of it, Rudy, and DeMar missed significant time due to injuries and it kind of sucks, With a healthy squad, we are easily top4 seat in the west.

I guess that's how sports goes, injuries is one of those things one can't control.

The Spanish llama was hurt too

The Spanish llama was hurt too

He was actually playing well before that injury. In which case, we would have traded him by now.

[CGD]

That we’ve been robbed of a good development year from Murray and even White with injuries. These are the transition years and the hope is LMA, Gay, and DDR keep the fanchise afloat while the young guys come up before eventually moving on. Sad to see that disrupted.

Relatedly annoying to not see Purtl get more run with all the Pau drama.

[Dennis the Menace]

Biggest disappointment? That RC and Pop are still ruining this organization... err wait, I mean “running”.

[Darius Bieber]

The team and front office.

[baseline bum]

Not getting Tatum for Leonard.

RC and Pop are making decisions that will benefit their legacy and swan song. If they actually had the best interests of the Spurs ORGANIZATION at the forefront of everything, they would’ve hit reset by trading for picks and young assets. We aren’t going to win a championship by “staying afloat”

I preferred tanking too but maybe ownership wasn't on board. Easier for a large market Sixers team to do it than a small market Spurs team that didn't have amazing attendance even when they were le contenders.

[Mikeanaro]

ty defense, lots of bad players expecting LMA to pull 40 ever night.
Every game is a torture, if Spurs win is by 2 points.
DeFrozen proving he is a turd, he had a great start so there is no reason to shoot 30% in 30 shots when he isnt even a 3 point guy.
Lots of turnovers & bad passes.
Free throws shooting torture, and it happens in every close game (most of them).
Pop calling timeouts too late, like the other night vs Warriors.
Gaslol getting minutes, he Spur fo life.
And other stuff.

[dbestpro]

No true small forward.

[Dex]

DoRozan going into playoff mode by January.

[MultiTroll]

Murray being hurt
Patty Mills being declared "the leader" by CIA Lost It. Please retire after Game 5 2014. (your final riding of Tims coatails.)
Gasol continuing to extort money.
Forbes continued huge minutes (hey he's trying, just a stupid signing)

[KDKSpurs24]

No true small forward.

[TDomination]

Going into this year I was legit excited seeing the young guys finally play. Especially seeing Murray and white develop more and then lo and behold they both get hurt. Injuries definitely has been the most frustrating thing of this year.

Seeing how we have played with white, I agree we would easily be top 4 seed with a healthy squad. But injuries are part of the game. Let's just hope next year is better.

[ceperez]

Lack of bold moves to sign and develop available players (i.e. gleague, undrafted players, buyout players, two way contract etc).

We got spots on the team held by aging players that have no long term future in this team.

Disappointed that our stars don't know how to pass the ball.

[Hoops Czar]

The offseason

[MaNu4Tres]

The return for Kawhi.

Dejounte, Derrick, and Lonnie getting injured.

The team doing just good enough for Pop and RC to not shop DeMar this summer, like they should.

I think there is more to this than most realize. With the currently constructed GSW, the odds are long that you are going to get past them. Despite this, the spurs with almost no resources constructed a team that had an outside chance of getting by them. All this was torpedoed by a top 5 player with a still undiagnosed injury and a desire to play elsewhere.

I was on the fence, but leaned towards rebuilding. Having seen DDR play even at his best, I now think that was the best option. That said, there are a lot of factors we don't know. First and foremost-what was really on the table for the Nephew. I'm beginning to get the impression, that there wasn't that substantial offers out there. Was Boston going to give up Tatum and picks for a guy with a possible degenerative condition and might flee in a year? I think they rolled the dice with DDR thinking they could improve his game/fit.

Picks are great- but look at Philadelphia. A lot of those picks flamed out, or they ended up with noting. Look at GSW draft history, before they hit three good picks. They where in the lottery for almost a decade.

I guess all said and done, the injuries are the most disappointing thing this season.

[Leetonidas]

Season has been not unexpected based on our roster. Imo the biggest disappointment by far is Murray tearing his acl and missing the entire year.

[SupremeGuy]

Walker has been an astounding bust. Granted, as soon as he opened his mouth, most of us saw it coming. What a wasted pick.

[ZeusWillJudge]

The entire league being turned into an 82-game version of the All Star Game.
