Possible incoming 4 game losing streak so things are looking up.
Fun win. Great to see White coming back to form.

Poeltl man of the game for sure!
White is too inconsistent. He has promise and is better for the long haul but Mills' offense is better and than White's defense, IMO. But I'll concede that White is better than Mills. I still rather give minutes to Mills than Forbes.
That last clip of Pau celebrating off the bench. Patty needs to loan him a towel to wave.
Dijon in the house. Looks good tbh
Patty's ass needs to be sitting right next to him and Metu
The old Poeltl is back. I think Pau sitting clears up the questions and gives him the focus. I hope it continues.
Last 2 games have been better defensively. That's good.
If Gasol, Cunningham or Pondexter never play another min, it will be too soon.![]()
But so is Mills. He'll have nights where he can go for 20 and miss 1 3 and then follow it up with 1-6, 3 points, some turnovers etc. I know you have a pretty strong hatred for Forbes but describing Patty's impact these days is very similar: can't defend, can't make plays for others, takes way more shots than he should. Not sure what it is you see in Mills to overrate him so much in my opinion. He's pretty useless when he isn't hitting 3s (just like Forbes). White already has more to his game on offense too than Mills so I'm kinda confused on your comment there. It's not like Mills has been a notable playoff performer other than the Heat series in 2014 and the Clippers in 2015 also.
I have to say, you never disappoint. When you've been around for thousands of years like I have, it's sort of refreshing when someone can surprise me. That was just stunning stupidity. Really.
gread defense 93 points only... but dont like turnovers...
Best rim protection of the season.
OKC and Denver up next. Would love for Denver especially to get that game so we can put to rest the "Spurs will challenge Denver" theory.
No Forbes and No Gasol = winning
How exactly is he inconsistent? The kids runs the point like a boss for no experience. I am telling you, Pop is either gonna wake up and build around White and Aldridge. Murray should be made into a Danny green role (defense and threes) or developed into a shooting guard. I am on Team White and have been. I see a lot of potential in him.
I'm not a Mills fan and am not happy with his contract but I can't deny the leadership he provides to a team post Big 3 and Kawhi before his sex change operation.
He struggles to reach double digit scoring in a league full of guards with heavy firepower. He's solid but Murray is more gifted and he was showing progress on his shooting before going down. They have to start Murray next season as our PG with White taking on the Manu super sub role.
The reason they are not doing well is because our poi t guards have been away. When Forbes moves back to a shooting G where he belongs and Patty to a reserve roll, you'll start likening them again. Forbes and patty were not playing their spots.
White has been scoring at least 10 points a game in almost every game since his return. What? lol.
When i was 10 years old and we had a school field trip to a museum in Athens i clearly remember my history teacher introducing the statue in your pic as Poseidon holding his trident.And commenting that people who think it's Zeus are reading too many comics (I didn't really get that comment at that time)
Maybe you'd like to pick a different profile picture if you are to continue using the re ed persona of an Olympian God like a 5 year old,in a basketball forum.
Having said that,good post,we shouldn't even put White and Mills in the same sentence this year.White is so much more important than Mills.
I'm fine with Forbes overall, even though I dislike him. I've acknowledged all year he was playing out of lack of options and that in a bench role he would be fine. Mills is trash wherever you put him though and for what he's being paid to do. He's being paid 12 million a year, just to be expected of the same things Forbes is doing and half the time he's not even making any impact on the floor. Mills has to go. Especially when Murray comes back.
