    i dont get why people are so intent on beating the dead horse that the spurs without their mvp candidate are not championship contenders

    there really isn't much PATFO could have done to change that fact

    Talent can be developed. Scrubs are just scrubs and this roster is chalk full of them. Pop is under the impression that the system is more important than talent and athleticism, that you can win games with anyone as long as you play structured basketball and everyone buys into their role. But in this league, you actually do need talent to win and the Spurs have very little of it. The lack of talent coupled with a below average x's and o's head coach and you can see why this team stumbles, fumbles and bumbles to losses on a nightly basis.

    Having Simmons and Dedmon over BP3 and Laughverne while not overpaying a scrub shooting guard and a 37 year old would have been a good start.

    Worst suppporting cast of all time. I mean even an average supporting cast would have the #1 seed without its best player

    agreed, particularly with dedmon. but we'd still be nowhere near competing and would still be a mid-tier team with kawhi out

    Spurs are 12-12 in the games Murray has started

    Spurs are 15-6 in the games Parker has started

    I know it angers Mexican player fans like FAP86, but numbers don't lie. Team goes as far as MVParker takes them. I mean , even with him losing minutes to mandatory rotation player Flabby Mills, he STILL leads the team in APG

    12-13 when Murray starts.

    Time to admit Parker is still the best guard on the team at Age 35

    This is far from possible.. but here’s a better storyline. “First time in 20 years they didn’t win 50 games BUT they won the championship!”. Much better than “Spurs managed to pull off 50 wins despite injuries. Kept streak going, but bounced in first round”.

    The gift that keeps on giving

    "Start Bertans"
    "BP3 > Simmons"
    "Aldridge ball is loser ball"
    and now this hit.....

    Now that Manu is down, if the Spurs decide to tank, it makes a lot of sense, tbh...

    Spurs have a better record without Manu than with over the last 3 seasons, tbh. His injury is a blessing

    nope... heck, this season we're 28-16 when he plays, 7-8 when he doesn't.

    Dijon can keep starting, just move Patty behind White in the rotation and hand him his towel.

    Who told you this son? Parker showing how easy it is to dominate bench scrubs. Shame he never got the privilege to do it like some bums...

    son, I just posted our records with/without him... ample sample size too, we're 3/4 through the season.

    I'm not hating on Tony, tbh... we're 20-11 when he plays, 15-13 when he doesn't...

    I do wish Pop hadn't flailed and made that move. Patty/DeJounte/Manu is at least a competently sized perimeter. You gotta keep going with Murray now because of upside, but without a trade (which it seems obvious the team tried to make during the deadline with both Bradley and Beli), I don't see any way you work out the guard rotation into a palatable playoff form.

    I'm kidding... I do think we'll still make the playoffs, unless Pop is in on the full blown tank

    I expect us to beat the 10th seed Jazz without Rubio or the Nuggets.

    He's done but keeps outplaying every guard in the rotation ok
