The twice thing you made up.. in fact it wasn't clear from what Nono said that assignment weee even spelled out... since I didn't see the skit. I am already tired of this... but in the course of making excuses for Pop you labeled Kyle stupid, stated he got told twice what to do ...went off subject repeatedly etc and admitted your rose colored glasses for Pop. I am tired of the conversation bc you have changed topics, goalposts, lines of reasoning and made stuff up plus added your bias....

I said maybe I'm misremembering, so if I'm wrong I can own that. You seem to be getting upset about it so I'll drop it. You have your opinion , I've got mine. I won't even touch on the petty comments you made as I try to be respectful on here. But I will say, if I have rose colored glasses for a member of this organization, Pop has a good enough resume and reputation as anyone, no? I said the guy isn't perfect, but you keep insinuating that I feel like that.

Anderson may not have been as sensitive as you are being about the whole thing honestly

[tonight...you]

. Larry Brown didn't last long anywhere bc he burned out his players and eventually they tuned him out. Pop is kind off camera, so we are told and he genuinely cares about guys... again this wasn't about this... or about Pops entire career, etc....

Exactly... who's better? You think the Lakers wouldn't back up the Brinks truck, if they thought they could have a chance at Pop? Any team?
Every one of them.

And my anger is from all of you, and you are included, in this bashing of Pop.
No coach is infallible, but you show me a better replacement.

You show me who could have gotten this franchise to 5 les in 20 years. Even with Duncan, as great as he was.
Pop brought D to this team when no other coach had ever done it. I watched decades of inept coaching. DECADES.

Inept coaching is still all over the league... Just watch. you tell me where great coaching is, in this league.

He brought a different level of discipline and a culture. CULTURE that was never a buzz-word before him and the Spurs.

Not happy with this garbage about Pop. He's not GOD, but he's better than MATTHEW.

He said Pop was exasperated, so maybe I took that to mean he said it more than once. Which maybe I'm wrong, if so my bad.

To call someone bias tho? You have been quite bias, and I try to be respectful of your opinions even if I disagree. But whatever

Heh You are the one oversennsitive who went around the world with this topic... and moving goalposts, subjects, scope of the comment and made a controversy about which I truly don't care. Lol

Will not respond bc this has truly gone too far mostly by Brooklyn dragging me into a discussion that I care not for. I made a simple comment and the police show up to blow it out of proportion. I was never attacking Pops entire career which is something that Brooklyn and you seem to think I did. Or maybe I am tKing the ire directed at Apalisoc.

I'm so confused as to how, but alrighty

You responded though... literally, lol.
Funny.

No worries. We won't carry on with this. We cool.

Unfortunately. I could have just ignored Brooklyn who I consider good people but who changed the subject a few times as well as context and made up situations and brought topics not in discussion, complicating a simple comment and making it into something that was not bc he couldn't stand even the simplest question about Pop acting like an asshole.... which he's known to do ... and a character flaw he has admitted sometimes...

The rest of the discussion I didn't even made a topic of... and I really didn't care about cause it wasn't what motivated my comment...

[bklynspursfan]

For crying out loud, I know Pop can be an asshole. I simply don't think he was being an asshole in that particular scenario. Sheesh.

All of my ranting tonight aside... we cool girl.
Trust.

You could have said that instead of moving your subjects around.

We good.. this went off topic long ago I am laughing bc I don't know how or where but it wasn't bc I started on an anti Pop rant but ppl acted like I did.

Frankly it it annoys me that he's this beyond question. The man can be an asshole at times. If you don't think he was in this case that's one thing.... assuming I am a Pop hater bc I did think he was a bit rude or just didn't care one bit what Kyle was doing out there and making it into some antipop crusade is a huge stretch... huge

[bklynspursfan]

haha.... he seems like he spaces out, i saw him at the Nets game too and he was sort of in his own world. I wouldn't be surprised if Pop told him and he missed it, or it was just common sense who he should be going in for.

Dude has been here a few years, little things like that you'd expect him to know.

This was my resoonse to Nono...

I know you are a Pop-apologist but when he's played 4 spots before in garbage time... I don't expect him to determine on his own which of the 3 roles he has played all season Pop wants him to play, specially when Pop's jekyll and hide personality will go off on guys who are not doing what he wants.
But yea, Pop is cool being an ass. it was obvious he didn't care.

You chimed in on your own to me here with the you are a pop-apologist crap which I felt was unnecessary, but w/e.

You could have said that instead of moving your subjects around.

It was all tied together with the route you went down with Your response, but again, w/e
