    Do you really get this butt-hurt whenever anyone criticizes Pop?

    It's funny.

    Like you got a huge old-man crush on Pop.


    No. I enjoy the hypocrisy more than anything.

    Sorry you need that explained to you.

    Nowitzki was tired/injured. Completely different cir stances.
    And at least Carlsilse had a decent excuse, Dirk was lethargic and playing like your momma's ass.
    Where's your inside information that Tony and Tim were not "tired?"

    You can't say that Carlisle has an excuse, but then turn around and say that Pop can't use the same one.

    You call a 40 point blowout watching a team of 3rd stringers whose entire gameplan was obviously devised on a chalkboard less than 10 minutes before the game totally annhiliated is fun to watch?
    You watched the whole thing. You're having the time of your life ing about it now.

    you guys are a bunch of f*gg, complain to Stern for pulling out this crazy schedule.

    All over the year there were tons of uninteresting games because players are tired or injured or not prepared (see Spurs / Dallas at the beginning of the year). Stern should be fined himself $1M.

    BTW portland medic staff should be fined too for breaking so many legs of their own players every year.

    The same person who told me that Dirk was tired enough to sit. And Timmy earlier this season.

    Y'all are losing sight of the end of the tunnel. Playoffs, not regular season.

    Tim and Tony were tired and earned a break after their excellent play as of late. And who would blame Pop for not taking the Blazers seriously enough to play his starters? Still not in playoff contention, and the spurs spanked them at full strength earlier this season. It was a good game to throw .


    This is a job. You dont get pay if you dont work do you?

    They didn't earned . Its what they're supposed to do.

    What's next, give the entire team a day off in the playoffs because they earned a playoff spot?

    Your logic is mad re ed.

    If resting causes our players to play better, I'm all for it.

    Portland got the win and you are complaining?
    If they played the blazers might not have had such a fun night.

    The weird thing is, why did Parker remain in his jersey after halftime (given that the score was out of hand by then? Most of the Blazer fans around me knew that Portland was hot behind the arc last night but they still didn't seem to be satisfied by the win (and the possible injury to Matthews).

    Because that worked already the last 3 years when the playoffs came around?

    Injuries have plagued the spurs for sure the last few years.

    Resting makes sense to me in principle, and I can't argue with the results so far this season where Tim came back from rest and put up his double double streak. I have no reason to believe it won't help our playoff performance in the end, even if minimally.

    Because this strategy worked to perfection last year.

    Honestly, this is a pussy move. Babying players because you fear they might crumble at some point. That's some pussy maneuvering.

    I get you're trying to spot for Pop but he ain't got no excuse for this. he the bed.

    Well , it was the owners that played hardball with the players that forced this lock out in the first place. And if your going to come down hard on Stern, then you'd better be prepared to go after Peter Holt as well.

    They should know not to buy tickets to a game where the spurs are on their 8th road game and on a b2b in portland. The writing was on the wall when looking at the schedule before the season even started. What dumb s for buying tickets to that game.

    Pops job is to win games and championships. not to cater to some random fans. Popovich's Spurs have always used the regular season as a springboard for the postseason. Whether it's curbing minutes or games like yesterday... he's looking at the big picture and plus he's not a prisoner of the moment...realizes one game doesn't make a season...unless its a closeout gm in the playoffs. Get over it

    lol it's called a salary. One day when you don't work at taco cabana anymore, you'll hopefully learn what a salary is.

    We had little kids in Duncan jerseys at the game last night that were devastated that he didn't play. People pay big money to see the stars of this league and it is bull when they are sat down for no good reason. I say Popovich should be fined around $100K.
    Noooooo....what a shame ....I think they were devastated cause the little ones haven't had a chance to see Oden play a full season....where is that dude anyways?Give the dude the mins..poor guy

    Do you know how buying tickets work genius?

    People buy tickets months before the actual game. I wonder where your thinking is stemming from? Were they supposed to know that Pop would sit his most relevant players, that Manu would get injured twice and that their center would get injured along with him?

    Yeah I see where the fans thought of all of this before buying a ticket 3-4 months before the game.

    Some people on this board post some without even thinking about it I swear.
