Did you also see that he sat Sochan at the same time? He’s the only Spur that was capable of staying in front of Donovan Mitc , and one of our best rebounders. We coughed up a bunch of those in the last 2-3 minutes with no Bismack and no Jeremy.

I know we are 'purposely' losing, but Mitch has been a dud as interim head coach.

I really hope he isn't the guy/successor if Pop steps down. He's been a massive downgrade from even current-day Pop, IMO.

Starting and prioritizing Harrison Barnes at this juncture of the season is criminal, IMO.

The front office hasn't helped by not picking up additional size on the back end (beyond Mamu, Charles, & Bismarck) too.

So, he’s doing what he’s supposed to, dropping games while keeping most of them compe ive, but you’re going to ding him for sabotaging the rotations to do so?

I want Jeremy to get all the reps he can. He's missed a lot time to injury this season, so now is the perfect time to increase his court time.

And he might be a game changer on defense, but his offense isn't nearly good enough to win us extra games.

Barnes and CP3 still starting is just a token gesture, but a coach with 'guts' would bench them to play the younger (more in our team's future plans) guys.

Just my opinion, but we can agree to disagree.

You mean like Washington, 162-109? That kind of embarrassing?

I saw that score and that was really bad, way beyond embarrassing, like ticket holders should get their money back kind of bad. Was that a record ?
Maybe they should have something like HS baseball's 10 run rule. If you're down by 30 at the start of the 4th quarter, call the game to save even further embarrassment or injury to players.

I don’t believe either the winning score or the margin of victory was a record, but they are way on the end of the bell curve. Supposedly, they started dribbling out the shot clock at the two minute mark.

I was looking back at old NBA final standings from the 70s. There were 22 teams, less than the 30 we have now. Only two teams won more than 50 games, and no one won 60, and only two teams won fewer than 30 games. Ah, the good old days.
