    For the most part, I don't think Pop wants to spend the energy developing young American talent. He probably wants to have an efficient practice and then go home and watch video while rearranging his wine cellar.

    If he drafts Euros he can let them learn their fundamentals overseas instead of him having to do it. Its not a bad idea, except we haven't been able to bring over a solid foreign player very recently. Mike Brown seemed to be able to relate to young American players. I don't see anyone on the staff now that does that. Maybe they should find an assistant coach who does do that.

    Since 2002 Spurs draft picks have yielded:

    John Salmons
    Leandro Barbosa
    David Lee
    Mardy Collins

    Beno Udrih
    Ian Mahinmi

    Except the unknown of Mardy Collins the Spurs have used their own picks worse than every other team has used their picks. I'd trade Beno for Collins in a heart beat.
    What this season tells me is that the Spurs management sucks. I am offically calling for their heads.

    While I'm not happy with the recent trading of draft picks, I think you guys take for granted how difficult selecting good players is.

    And damn, only three championships to show for it. We suck. I wish we were like Dallas, with a top notch proven winner for an owner and so much to show for it. Or Phoenix, yeah those guys are hot too.

    What a bunch of spoiled pussies some of you "fans" are. You can't be the top team in the league forever. Let Pop and RC go, import someone else to be lead owner, and see how many championships come in the next ten years. Yeah, so some of the decisions made the last five years are coming home to roost. That's life.
    True, but I find it downright ridiculous that any team with Tim Duncan could be on the verge of becoming a .500 team, much less a team with Tim Duncan, Manu Gionbli, and Tony Parker.

    How is SA at 16 games above .500 and with the 3rd-best record in the league "on the verge of becoming a .500 team"?

    The only one I'm pissed about is not getting Barbosa (or Howard), but that wasn't the front office being cheap... it was the front office trying to sign Kidd, which was going to be expensive as . Holt was ok with offering Kidd that deal, so I think it's hard to call him cheap.

    Lol, "you ". Spoken like a true undersocialized freak who couldn't get any from an inflatable female doll if he poured rohypnol down her blowhole first.

    And how am I dissing your team? I pointed out you still had the 3rd best record in the league implying you were still one of the best teams in the league, but I guess your reading comprehension ability is as tiny as your little pud. That reminds me, my turtle wants his penis back.

    Josh Howard would have gotten like $700K a year, right? How was drafting him going to blow signing Jason Kidd? Were they within a dollar of not offering him a max contract? Was that such a big deal when TX has no income tax?

    If Kidd wasn't going to come to the Spurs because of $700K, he wasn't going to come anyway. Not drafting someone in that instance was stupid and in the end, obviously very costly.

    What does Pop expect? The Spurs have the most lethal synthesis around: geriatrics and Europeans.

    I have been saying since the beginning of the year that we have been playing mentally soft. What Pop publicly stated yesterday has been obvious to anyone who is watching this team play. In the end this team is not good enough to win when they do not play hard or with hunger. Yesterday was a familiar occurrence for this team. The Spurs were pushed around in the second half of a game and did not respond. We're just not good enough this year and I am beginning to accept that.

    What make me VERY worried is how Butler can't play any minutes?

    He must be the worst center all time. He can't get minutes over Elson and Oberto.

    We're not talking about Robinson and Willis. It's Elson and Oberto
    Eu concordo com voce, 100%! Cade esse cara, Butler? Ele deve ser ruim e gordo ate!

    We're giving opponents a mental advantage. They know they can outplay us in the third and fourth quarter. We need to play one or two games without losing these quarters, to get us going again.

    This soft thing is a bunch of bull . It's like whipping a horse that just can't get to the finish line first. They are playing as hard as they can. But, when you get nothing from the center position, nothing from your small forward, and nothing from Horry, Finley, Barry, etc.....it amounts to 3 on 5....it is so obvious. Pop is going to lose some guys if he keeps up the soft routine. His act is getting as old as the bench.
