So you honestly believe Coblow is going to surpass Mills as the 2nd unit point guard?![]()
tha answer is no, obviously, but it will be much better when he'll be the full time backup pg with everyone healthy. Now he doesn't have a clue about what he's supposed to do and given that he needs to guard for two he's losing it.

i don't consider mills as a pg. and he's useless in the play offs anyway so yes.
Hmm, interesting take.
That's one of the problems with Mills - He's not really much of a point guard at all. He's pretty much a shooting guard. He can't really play PG that well on the NBA level. Mills has worked hard though during the off season and looks like he's putting in the effort to at least try and play defense out there, so I can't fault him for that. He's developed a pretty darn good jumpshot too, and that might be the thing keeping him in the NBA.
Do you guys think he would still be in the NBA if he couldn't shoot? Do you think he could get to the rack consistently if he made a concerted effort to do so? For some reason, it doesn't seem like he has good enough handles to do so.

Blah, blah, blah. Heard all that before. We'll see what happens come playoff time.
well it happened successfully last year, so i don't know what are you bragging about.. btw i like patty and he made an effort this year to improve his overall strength but that's not enough if you can't guard your opposites which are the twos tbh. He's not a point guard. I prefer him to belinelli though.
i can't believe this canadian trash mongrel got his contract extended. He's a fraidy cat scrub and is a liability with the ball, can't finish, can't dribble, and he hasn't gotten better to my eye.
He's not going to have any more upside. Spurs made a mistake with this guy. I can't bear to watch him sometimes when he gets beat by an average player and actually stumbles in pursuit. A player his size in this league has to have some outstanding skill set, whether it be shooting, playmaking, or defense. I don't see it in him.
If nothing else, he's living proof that, given a similar talent skill set, a bigger player will always beat a smaller player.
I'm still high on him, but it's pretty frustrating how he performs most nights.
Spurs wasting picks it's unlike them. All the players that came after Joseph that are producing. Jimmy Butler, Parson and Isaiah Thomas, the first to come to mind.
Compounding this loss is all the time and minutes that have been invested into this 1st round bust that could have been going to Patty's (or even Nando's for that matter) development. Not to mention all the time and sleepless nights Pop has obviously gone through trying to construct the "perfect" backup when he should have just gone with what was working (Mills) and put all that effort into far more important endeavors, such as devising more ways to get Splitter and Leonard more involved offensively.

I'm with you 100%. For some reason I think with more development Nando could probably be a better player. As for what you saying about the backup guard spot Pop blow that one big time. As years goes on I'm starting to think that in season experimenting with players is holding the team back. Try need a solid 10 players and role with that. All this flip flop I'm sure s with there confidence. Pop reminds me of one of them old school pimp movies like "The Mack".
Quasimoto is one of the more boring NBA players to watch in recent years. Plus he has displayed minimal skill and an irritating passiveness.
So no.
Does anyone else miss TJ Ford?
Damn, that guy could ing play the point.
He was just hitting a kind of perfect nirvana balling zone when he got injured, then retired.
A damn shame.
I didn't see last night's game but from the box score I see Pop is using this scrub in Leonard's place in the starting lineup and killing off any remaining trade value he might have had. He's probably essentially untradeable at this point when he probably could have been packaged with a lower pick for legitimate backup for Leonard a month or so ago. More brilliance from Popped......![]()
He played pretty well in the first half, allowed only one score from Gordon. But the Spurs were out of sync then with Duncan and Parker missing easy shots. He was in for the first comeback in the third quarter, and he and Green played tremendous D. But he was also on for that string of Ts and fouls that put the Pelicans up big again, and he didn't play much after that.
I didn't think his D was great last night, but I'm not going to hold it against him, since he had a size disadvantage all game, tbh..
He also got called for some ty fouls due to being a no-name player, which tends to happen in the NBA, unfortunately:.
Joseph is good. He plays defense, his offensive skills are pretty good. He can drive, hit the mid range and hit 3's on occasion. He seems a tad shy on offense, but that will change in time.
I want jump shoots to become skillful.
He is good player .
he has good drive and pass .
He forced to do play SG . He is PG . It is no fair .

He seemed to get a little better last year when he wasn't crouched over all the time. Now he's back to crouching his game seems to blow. The quasimodo analogy is very apropo.
Cojo should take a backseat to Nando and Brown. Honestly why is he playing?
Trade him to Toronto for Austin Dayes
CoJo needs to go out there like he's playing in Austin and just ball. His timidity is what s him.
