Actually, I blame Devin's 24 minutes for that.
Hey what is our record when Devin plays 20+ minutes anyway?
For what? AJ's jumpshot?Apologize to LJ.
Like you did with the win total?I won't overestimate again.

No, like I did your basketball IQ and Pop's ability to utilize talent.
It's fun for you to make up stuff.the fewers TO's per 48 minutes on the entire team.
Whottt wants players who are sucking to play more minutes so that the Spurs can win more.
Riiiiiight.
How many championship winning shots have Robert Horry, Shane Heal, Ron Mercer, Tim Derk, Brent Barry and The Coyote hit combined?
That's what I thought.
As oppposed to players "who don't suck" and losing more...yes.
It's the qwhottta system.
Do us a favor and Gillooly some stars on our next few opponents. It'll make the Spurs look good again.
Whottt's basketball knowledge can be summed up by his own signature.
Nice.
And his avatar won't play a minute this year.
Also telling.
By default someone has to hit a championship winning shot every year...some are more spectacular than others...but since's that's the criteria...
Retire Stephen Jackson's jersey then since he did it in 03.
Not impressed...
Now going 1-26 from three 3 point range in the playoffs in a 19 year career as a PG in the shotclock era...and still getting your jersey retired?
Now that's ing rare....that impresses me...
Specially since weak ass Horry has more 3 pointers just in the NBA finals than AJ has in his entire career, playoffs and regular season, combined....and no one is retiring his jersey.
And Barry's 1-for-December performance from the arc means he must play more.
Such is the logic of the qwhottta system.
Since when did three-pointers mean more than just an extra point? , I'll take two AJ layups over your Shane Heal three anyday.
Are you in love with the three-point shot? If the NBA did away with it, you'd probably be a full-time wrestling fan.
You know that Tim Derk isn't related to Dirk Nowitzki, right?
And you wanted AJ as an active guard this year...and even AJ said he was finished...if that's not telling I don't know what is.
Anyway, sorry to hear my boy Sato won't get playing time...was hoping he'd be the one to replace Barry when Pop moves the worst player in NBA history to the IR.
At least then people would shut the up about defense and we could choke away games in peace.
So tell me...what's your problem with Brent Barry again?
I wanted AJ for his leadership. Don't get it twisttted.
Tell him to make one of your beloved three-pointers and play something resembling defense, then he'll get to play.
Simple formula.
No comment about Whottt giving up on Devin Brown after 10 games.
Interesting.
He's already made one this month. Lay off.Tell him to make one of your beloved three-pointers
That's good because he wasn't going to offer anything else...
I've really got no problem with you liking AJ's leadership abilities...
I've got tremendous problems with you wanting to put them on the court and take up a roster spot.
Putting him on IR or using him as the 12th man wouldn't have hurt anything. Does Mike Wilks make a difference one way or the other?
Didn't think so.
It would have if we'd had to play him....why not just offer him the open assistant coaching position?
Mike Wilks is just AJ without David Robinson.Does Mike Wilks make a difference one way or the other?.
Kindness.
I didn't give up Devin Brown, just like I don't hate Bruce Bowen.....I'm just giving out the same unjustified and impatient hate you guys are putting on Barry...We are a better team when Barry is getting minutes, becuase he does make smart decisions with the ball, he keeps men off of Duncan and he doesnn't turn it over.... You guys are the ones making it a pissing contest of Barry VS Devin...Or at least you are defending Pop doing it...even when were melting down offensively in the second half because of it.
As for Barry VS Devin... I've already seen then both play 20 minutes in the same game this year...I don't understand what the problem is...espcially since Manu shouldn't get a lot of minutes...and since Bowen's age is showing.
W-L is the ultimate stat and it doesn't lie...
You guys are getting your line up out on the court...we are losing and you guys are just making excuses...
I didn't have to make any excuses prior to this happening.
Pop's ing up. Plain and simple. Just like he did with Malik last year...
it's not really mpg that should be our concern... it's plays per game :O...
the spurs just ain't running plays for brent barry anymore, in fact i've seen them give devin brown more plays in a game than 3 games for brent barry O_O
well im saying, give brent barry 20 mpg... and run some plays for him where he actually shoots the ball.
Barry will return to form and earn more minutes but he doesn't deserve to be reduced to 6mpg to try and do it. That is not a constructive way to treat a proven shooter like him. Devin worked his way into more minutes over two years learning the Spurs system. He was totally unproven so he got at least a year of garbage time. We don't have that time for Barry and we shouldn't treat him like we do.
Barry is an experienced vet and has shot better last year and over his career than almost every guard in the NBA. Yes he can "earn more minutes" but his past accomplishments should dictate that he not be treated like a rookie who's banished to garbage time when he doesn't produce. This is how Pop's been treating him the last two games.
Barry has proven more in this league in terms of being a sharpshooter and distributer than Devin has and probably will over his career. He deserves more than 6mpg to break out of a slump, and it doesn't have to be at the expense of any big minutes from Devin.
