Even if everyone turn against Pop i will still support him as a coach, as a POBO-GM he did a lousy job but his hand was forced on some of those desicions.
rip...
Pop was right, "a pathetic performance."
New all-time franchise low, TBH.
The players are just an extension of the head coach. Pathetic breeds pathetic.
DjM will not make any impact when he comes most Pros can't do what they use to. DjM is young which is nice but I don't see him making a come back. I hope I am wrong. We needed his defense and athletics. ACL injuries are very hard to come back from. D. Rose took several years to come back. We need to flip DjM for something maybe a draft pick. For christ sake please bounce Belineli. He suck at everything except shooting a 3. He turns it over so much or throws an awful pass for a Turnover. Other teams have figured him out and quickly Dbl team him so they can make him panicked a throw it away. He should never ever!... dribble the ball. He sucks at that and gets it stolen almost 4 of 5 times. We are lackluster on D. We cannot guard the 3 ball. We have no one to drive the ball. Everyone wants to shoot midrange jumpers and 3's. I know DDfrozen is not playing at his full potential. OMG please get rid of pau Gasol!
I thought some genius on here was arguing with me and saying defense doesn't matter nowadays? Smh... F*cking non-basketball understand jackass
Whoops totally did that wrong. I wanted to say the Spurs play like defense doesn't matter. Especially around the arc. Spurs Players too often try to guard the lane or crowd the middle, which leaves their man to get open and knock a 3 down. How often do we get steals? No very much. Pop is senile to not play Rudy. His D is good and he can score too.
Havnt seen yet. If i was coach, would play this vid back for the players at every pregame workout from now on.
This loss is a new low. Even, Samuels had enough .
Rose didn't take a few years, he had more major injuries three years in a row. ACL injuries you can come back from but it takes a full season usually to get your confidence up and your fitness. Murray will come back well, but just not month one of the season.
I bet you Pop has sat down with the team and got real with them. Telling them they have no chance as long as Gstate is around. I think he told them let's just make the PO to keep up the playoff record. He is a straight shooter so I think he told them they are dead in the west. Nobody cares about us. He probably also said we blew our chances for the 4 spot for homecourt advantage. And what the is our problem on the road?
wait, I thought the Knicks were tanking for Zion and this was a guaranteed victory.
this is by no means a compliment to White, he's JUST a good player, just shows how the front office's work was destructive in the last three seasons.
exactly, some studs believe the Spurs have always won because of their players' high IQ, but the only reason for the winning seasons was that we always had more atg talent on the roster than 99% of the teams (D-Rob, DUNCAN, Manu, Kawhi, Parker).
Perhaps Pop forgot how to coach and control a game when he had elite vets like Parker, Manu, and Duncan controlling the pace. This allowed pop to concentrate and look for other avenues to beat a team. We don't have pg. He is injured for the season. We have White in and out due to an ongoing injury. Mills is not pg and played often next to Manu. So we have no one atm that controls a game and calls plays. And Pop hasn't had that for over 10 years.
To some extent that is or can be true. Then again, you can't coach 'passion, desire, compe iveness, determination, or that "Manu" gene.'
first time this season i have the impression pop is genuinely upset with his team in front of reporters, and not just showboating to make a point or bc he dgaf
Coaches fault they shot 6/24 from 3. Damn it pop use your jedi force to move it in the hoop.
This game had zero to do with offense. we put up 118 or whatever it was. should have been good enough to win.
giving up 130 to the knicks is terrible. that was the issue.
Nah. This team would still be in really great shape if it hadn't been blindsided by Nephew. Giving up Danny was dumb, the Paddy+Pau contract's were dumb, but those weren't catastrophic moves by the FO...this team would still be elite if Nephew simply hadn't turned into a . Especially with the emergence of White.
making patty one of the higest paid sixth men and paying paus rotting corpse 16 mil is pretty catastrophic
No because that implies that those contracts would cause the Spurs to suck or be mediocre even with Nephew around. I don't think that's the case. They'd be elite if Nephew hadn't turned into a despite those two contracts.
Didn’t we lose to a tanking knicks team a couple years ago too
Now that i think of it ,the knicks have been destroying us in New York for years
