The Panic Thread

[baseline bum]

Even if they miss the playoffs, at least they got 5.

This. Tim got the last laugh on LeBron.

We are playing really bad.
Referees are calling bad for us, we don't receive the champs calls, our players dont have the respect of the referees that they deserves.
90% of the in and out shoots in the games are our shots.
90% incredible plays are for the other team.
We are soft on the 50-50 balls.
We cant grab a rebound.
Our offense look bad, we don't have a creator to start the ball movement for 48 minutes on the floor.
Our defence sucks.
We play that stupid zone.
Pop don't yell as uses to be.
We have a lot of injuries.
Some players are having a low par season.

I'm really worried, but this can't be any worse, so this is gonna end soon.

[look_at_g_shred]

We are lacking fundamentals too!

[ElNono]

Pop can't even pull the soft card with any credibility with all the injuries and the resting...

We also dont have a free roster spot to call up a DLeaguer that's gonna save our season "if only Pop would play him"

is looking bleak, IMO

Time to play Errors?

Those gold tags on the back of their jerseys represent the big fat they're taking this year.

[FireMicoHalili]

Sup apasolic_9?
sup Malik?
sup HH?

At least have the balls to tag these guys

[emanueldavidginobili]

@JMcDonald_SAEN: Last year, you needed 54 wins to tie for 4th/5th in the West. To hit that mark this year, Spurs will need to go 36-16 rest of the way.

The Kyle Anderson experiment isn't working out.

Don't care. Thumb has a ring.

Tank for Emeka Okafor

[DJR210]

Pop knows we need better draft position this year with Manu's retirement looming. He is strategically sitting players and telling the ones on the court play at 35%. It really is beautiful what he is doing this year IMO.

We get into the playoffs at the bottom end, and improve our draft by 10 or so slots.

[Calispursfan11]

LOL this thread. It's obvious pop doesn't give a rats ass about the regular season. He's resting people more than they need, playing 12th string scrubs at crunch time. He's not even trying to win most of these games, tbh. Maybe he's trying to tank to 7 or 8 seed permanently to get into a good matchup. Who the knows-he is still looking pretty relaxed out there and not surprised at all by the losing streak. CIA pop remember.

[spurs10]

I'm wondering what happened to Tony. Was he injured on Xmas? He certainly had a bad game, but I wonder if he has tweaked his hammy again.

Shut up

[kobyz]

I hope Pop is going to remove the beard by the end of the year, please no beard for 2015!

[marinoman]

This team is softer than charmin.

Shut up

Wow telling me to shut up totally worked. Imbecile

[Fireball]

my setup for the season was that Tony and Kawhi would carry the load in the regular season ... Tony rested during the summer so I saw him above 30min a game bringing consistent offense and 18 PPG. Adding 35+ minutes for Leonard on the floor was the goal to be consistent on the defensive end and to give him room to improve his offensive skills, especially with the second unit. both him and Tony being injured is just a huge blow which cannot be compensated as losses of e.g. Manu and Splitter. It is not a situation as if Durant and Westbrick are missing for OKC, but the impact is closer than you think.

Last season we had our worst stretch when Kawhi sat ou with his broken hand, after his return we won and never looked back. others were also injured and returned, but it is time to accept that just from the eye test Kawhi has the most overall impact on the game

Diaw is also starting to piss me off. He only looks interested when the whole band is together, especially when he can play with Tony.

And Pop did the mistake early in the season to try to take the minute management to another level. But we already had crucial injuries to Mills and Splitter, so the normal blowout wins just did not come by. I cannot blame him for the losses against Brooklyn, Utah and the Lakers - these are all on the team and really hurting us now.

about Patty - I want him to return too but I think you are expecting too much. your last memories of him were in the Finals were he was great, but the way the Spurs play right now I fear he could get into Gary Neal mode with the second unit. he will chuck the out of the ball in situations where the team trails ...

in a nuts ... we need Kawhi back soon or this season is over

+1

you can add that 2014 le was such an accomplishment such a big relief after 2013 ,it's hard to recover mentally from this 2years journey and the emotional rollercoster.

spurs doesn't care much about regular season, they'll start to focus again after allstar break until then, keep calm and carry on
