Very well could be . He injured it about 14 months ago. Acl is a 9-12 month recovery. Kinda seems like the spurs are babying him
Maybe he is mad at the minutes restrictions? Wansnt he supposed to be cleared for more than 25 after 10 games? Did that ever happen?

What a show. This organization has no plan. They have no idea what they're doing.
Bc they should care about immature players and their social media cryptic activity?
If he deletes his Tinder account it might mean he has a new girlfriend. If he deletes Snapchat someone call the paramedics.
Did he delete pornhub?
I like Murray, but we don't need an immature player treating his career the same way he does his Instagram gold diggers.. The Spurs signed him to a contract not knowing who he would return as and gave him and his family a ton of long term security. He's on a team friendly deal and has a lot of upside. Not the worst scenario to be in with him IMO
Damn right.. Real would be catering the team to pussy ass players who haven't proven a god damn thing in this league yet
lol the overrated pos who opens his mouth but doesnt back it up...
still hasnt improve , just another pos who says he work on his jumper, but cant shoot for ...
I would also be upset to have a scrub like Forbes with a guaranteed starter spot
I agree, I don’t get why he’s being benched. Of course he’ll struggle. A season without playing, lost development etc. He’s a young dude who’s raw, obviously he’ll struggle. This season is looking like a lost one thus far, might as well let him figure it out. It’ll help in the long run.
Pop is being stubborn, thinking this team will actually do anything. Sure there is a chance they will make the playoffs. But I would gladly blow it up and develop the young guys than just get bounced out in the 1st round again
I haven’t looked at his social media accounts but even before the season started I said Murray doesn’t have the makeup to accept coming off the bench. Also, why alienate a player that you just heavily invested in the offseason. Pop needs to learn the subtleties of dealing with the modern NBA player. He’s still acting as if the big 3 is on the team and allowed him to do whatever he wanted no matter if it was a detriment to the player’s minutes or stats.
This is dumb. He's acting very immature. What do you expect though from a young player in this league who had a YouTube show with some his girlfriend and "social media drama" with that same girl? It surpume at first because all last season and during the off-season he was all about the Spurs, but then I realized just how immature he really is.
He needs to accept his current role and focus on getting better. Players now of days are soft.
I'm an old fart so I would pass this on all a nothing burger, however social media drama is a huge part of their life and is serious business to the younger crowed so there might actually be merit to this all that we older people see as non-sense.
We may not like it but this is what the younger generation of players will be like now, this is how the younger generation is and unless we go back to teaching them old school (which I know that isn't happening) this is our future.
I'm not sure if we have to accept it but I guess we will eventually have to expect this from the social media drama culture and hope for the best![]()

I'd say we got him until 2023-2024, but in these days, that means nothing
If he doesn’t get traded this year, I bet he ultimately asks for a trade prior to his contract running out
I was correct about kawhitter and now I'm correct about Instagram Baller. Some might say I am the smartest person in the room.![]()
It's just a difference in philosophy. Some organizations agree with you.
Pop believes that young players are a long-term investment. If you play them before they learn how you want them to play, they will learn bad habits. The Spurs call it "skipping steps." Even Kawhi credited Pop for never letting him skip steps.
There are pluses and minuses for both approaches.
Are we still sure that he will be cleared? We're 23 games into the season and he's actually playing fewer minutes over the last five games. He should've been up to to 28 mpg by now, with him coming off the bench and Pop not wanting to play the two together its hard to see that happening now.
I just checked and he is not online on ICQ or MSN Messenger.
This is bad.
Made no sense to start Murray to begin with. Bad decision by Pop. The dude has t played in over a year, was rusty as , had no chemistry with his teammates, and was on a minutes restriction. He was set up to fail tbh and that’s on Pop.
Had Pop done the smart thing and bring Murray off the bench to begin with, learn about ball movement with the second unit and learn how to move off ball as well, then I think Murray would’ve been ok with it. But by benching him and him seeing Forbes starting doesn’t do us any good when the locker room is already close to falling apart bc of all the losing.
New Balance is in his ear...
