    Lol, it's easy to create a team that not anchored by two archaic cap eating players. I feel San Antonio is the hardest level gm job due to the lack of flexibility in style, stale free agency appeal and a legendarily stubborn coach. It's why I want the rebuild to happen before RC leaves the building entirely.

    The Spurs gave been drafting the right players, athletic guards and a passing big.

    I am thinking besides Spo, Miami’s scouting deserves props.
    agree with everything else.
    Spoelstra deserves a ton of credit, Heat were even good last year besides having no star player. One of the best coaches in the league.

    Spurs head coach deserves all the criticism for having almost the same roster as last year, actually a slightly better roster with better defenders and still being worse than last year with one of the easiest schedules in the NBA. All that talk about corporate knowledge and it wasn't worth jack . That's poor coaching

    I am not arguing that, simply stating that Miami’s FO deserves credit for finding under the radar players that fit what the coach is trying to do.

    Every criticism thrown Pop’s way is well earned by him. In fact as Zeus said it just makes you question everything else, including the FO decisions bc what is the coach trying to accomplish and how does that guide their decisions.

    yeah the Heat are doing a great job top to bottom, which is most likely due to Pat Riley still being involved. Pop might have turned a corner though, I think this post up DeRozan and let LaMarcus shoot 3s offense might change the season. They just don't seem to know in which direction to head in the future

    We barely scraped into the playoffs last year as it was. Those three wins are basically the difference from the Spurs going in at #7 and sitting home at #10 with a ty draft pick.

    I still want to see this team turn it around, but they definitely wasted the opportunity of a soft early-season schedule and now have their work cut out for them.

    Sadly, I think the RRT will be the deal breaker.

    Agree. Good chance we might go 0-8 in those games. You add the upcoming 2-7 stretch to that 0-8 road trip and that is pretty much game over.

    Phoenix up by 6 on the Blazers with 44 seconds to go. I think we'll get 8th seed, boys.

    Blazers just lost to Suns, which put Spurs sole possession of 8th seed. If Spurs play their cards right and beat lowly Warriors at home tomorrow, they will be 1 full game ahead.
