White-Murray Sighting; DeRozan Moping

[RC_Drunkford]

Yeah, on that note,

how many game minutes have neither Bryn, Patty or Belli been in the game?

I would like to see that stat. It feels like at least on of them is always on the floor.

I can pretty much guarantee you that the only time none of them were on the floor was the Cavs game when Pop played Murray and White for 2 seconds and then quickly subbed in Patty for Derrick.

[Mugen]

You only prove my point every time you call me a fa****.

Like I said, you're a human. And likely a lonely angry one at that. Congratu- ing-lations!

Are you one of Bryn's 5 illegitimate kids?

gotta love how you guys attack my personal life all the time. The most vanilla of all insults, wouldn’t expect any less from low IQ suckers

To be fair, it would have been three seconds if the score keeper would have started the clock on time on that jump ball.

Been saying it all along...these two cats are a cancer...career underachievers/losers...they don't care about winning they just care about their stats...25 years in the nba combined for our dynamic bags and 0 nba finals appearances

Any other coach. Literally any other coach in the league or any coach from the last 10 years would have played White/Murray together regularly. You'd also see a White/Lonnie/Murray lineup as well with any other coach.

This one though? This senile has absolutely refused to look at those lineups until he's absolutely desperate. It's really sad and somebody needs to take the keys away from him, he's an old old man that the game passed by years ago. It's sad watching him be so confused out there.

it's common logic that you play both against teams who have 2 dominant guards like Houston, Portland, Dubs when healthy. Even those idiots at ESPN said that before the season. But Pop has to play Mills/Forbes line ups instead

[UZER]

Where?

[offset formation]

When I go to games, they owe me a performance worthy of my ticket price. They owe the fans who spend money on merchandise to compensate their contracts.

We have a right to complain and not accept mediocrity as a fan base. You see what OKC is doing? Everyone was writing them off as basically last place in the west and a tank job this year. They’re doing better than we are. That’s low. Losing to Memphis at ing home during Parker’s retirement ceremony? That’s ing low. We as fans do not need to simply sit back and take what this inept front office is handing to us. Jesus Christ. That’s what being a fan is! You SHOULD be able to criticize and boo your team. THATS WHAT BEING A FAN IS ABOUT. .

Yeah, no.

I cannot imagine if you were a fan of pretty much every other team in the NBA.

The only thing they owe you is effort. And a coach that demands it. After that, you're just a .

Someday, when Pop leaves, you guys will know what you had.

I just can't abide a fan of such conceited immaturity. Grow the up.

[Mugen]

Please for the love of god let DePression ask for a trade. I don't care what they get back. Even if it's John Wall's terrible contract. I don't give a .

It's not even that he's a loser with his play, that part is not surprising. It's that the Spurs have 3 young guards that have to be around this career cancer and loser every day.

Get him the away from this organization.

[timtonymanu]

These posters like offset formation . You guys wouldn’t have lasted here when Laker and Mavs fans would troll the spurs fans up here and you would be the type of gots to personal message the mods to ban them.

Supreme Sniffer exstatic was trying to spin it, saying that Dejounte and Derrick were both on minutes restrictions so they couldn't play together.

[KobesAchilles]

DeRozan doesn't deserve to wear the same jersey as Tim, Tony, or Manu tbh.

But he averages 20 points per game. Something Manu and Tony never did
I would trade Demar and Gay. And at the end of the season let Forbes walk.

Keep showing that ass. Human s you fools are. Enjoy your miserable existence.

It was a serious question, link me the GoFundMe page, I'm worried about you

Didn’t see much effort at all from this team besides maybe the Clippers game at home. That’s it. Pop does not demand effort if he lets Belinelli go 0-5 during crunch time.

When Pop leaves, I’ll be ing glad to see who’s next. Hopefully it’s someone who isn’t afraid to mix in young guns when the “veterans” can’t do . I’d be ing ecstatic to see Brad Stevens or Rick Carlisle or Quin Snyder at the head. I’ve been the one screaming for Rick Carlisle for years now.

[FkLA]

How about Poop going with Belli over Lonnie in the second half though?

It's so disgusting how he's almost looking for a reason to not play Lonnie. And with Belli, it's the complete opposite. He hits one shot and suddenly he wants to close with him. White-Murray-Lonnie would've been pretty exciting.

[DPG21920]

Disappointing loss against the Rockets after having a 25-point lead. Not really surprising though since the Spurs lost all momentum late in the second quarter and never got it back.

Few interesting subplots:

1) The duo of Derrick White and Dejounte Murray looked really good. Defensively, it was all we could have imagined. The Rockets tried setting screens with their guards to free up Harden and that duo just ate it up. Houston had to start running different plays. Offensively, it looked fine. Improved passing and pace in the small sample size; White-Murray played the final 4:46 of the game. Pop has to play this duo more often.

2) With White and Murray on the court, DeRozan was off of it. Was it because he wasn't playing well or Pop is so paranoid about spacing that he doesn't dare play a lineup that features White, Murray and DeRozan? If it was the former, that's understandable as DeRozan was just being a sourpuss out there all game long anyways. If it's the latter, I don't agree with that decision. Houston's defense isn't sophisticated enough to take advantage of the lack of spacing.

3) DeRozan's moping is getting out of hand. Tonight, he was moping all throughout the game and then when he was on the bench for the final 4:46, he was barely watching the game. He was sitting on the end of the bench showing no emotion and not even attempting to watch when his teammates were standing up in front of him. I'm officially on the don't-extend-DeRozan-at-any-price bandwagon.

Lol how can you be that adamant about Derozan and still think it’s a good idea to run it back next year vs trading him?? That does not make sense to me. At all

throw in lamarsha and you got a deal

The only reason I can think of is he’s in that limbo area where he sucks enough to not be tradable but doesn’t suck too much to where he’s cut-able.

Just crazy man. Pop has lost it.

[DPG21920]

Also for the love of God please DEMAND a trade Derozan. Force the issue. Say you’ll only play in La too; IDGAF

[tim_duncan_fan]

Here's the thing though, if asked to take on Derozan's scoring load, would White-Murray have the stones to do it?

How many times do we have to watch the both of them pass up good and/or open shots before it clicks for them?

I am particularly frustrated with White because he has one slow gear the entire game every game and never plays aggressively ever.

[timvp]

I might have to recruit offset as Jim Bowie to my Davy Crockett, tbh.

I simply don't understand how pop puts up with DeMar's antics, like tossing balls and such. That seems like something that pop simply would not have accepted in years past
