    using +/- as a stat in 2017 to cape up for PATFO
    Dabom constatly uses it to cape for Mills. Simmons not having a good game though. 5 TO and not shooting well.

    What does the PATFO have do with Simmons being an ordinary stat padding money who thinks he's all that when he's actually just another reincarnation of Malik Hairston? Way to lift that goal post out of the ground and implant it into your hole.

    You should talk with your obssessiveness over a total scrub.

    I use net also. I also use context. You should try it. Kyle minutes keeps going down. At this point, he has never shown any meaningful minutes. Unlike other players, PATFO have no reason to expect anything from him. He doesn't have a high ceiling or high floor. Don't expect to see him on a Spurs Jersey next season.

    Pattys thing is inexplicable. I keep expecting him to bounce back... but he could be in for a bad season. That’s basically Danny of 2 years ago. I kept expecting his shooting to come back... he had an odd game he got hot but overall was much worse than the season prior. Lean times

    Plus minus on a team that has a bad bench is misleading

    Those thread happened a lot in '04 and '06 when the Spurs lost to the Lakers and Mavs. They were a lot of fans that felt had the Spurs kept Jax they win in both of those years.
    I can say 04 for sure. That team had nobody with balls to shoot and hit big threes when needed. Or just hit threes period. That was why Parker vanished once the Lakers packed the paint. Horry absolutely shriveled against his former team, and Hedo was a complete no show.

    Sjax had already proven to be tough mentally and physically, and could take and make big-time clutch shots. His confidence was sky high. Just look at what he did in ATL that same year.

    Some of the hoops people are jumping through to excuse the front office are funny. Similar to how people coped with Scola by blaming Scola and making up things rather than look at the front office.
    This phenomenon is endemic to sports forums in general. When you can't talk about the matter at hand, change the subject to who is the biggest cheerleader. There ought to be a special section for these kiddies, in which they give each other circle jerks and gold stars.

    Simmons is pure absolute garbage in Orlando, proving that his limited success WAS due to The System. Metu may be something down the road, but what he is now is a relatively clueless young man who doesn't understand NBA basketball. Neither are even replacement level players right now, let alone rotation level.

    The only special section needed is for morons who think athleticism = NBA ability.

    What a short-lived thread this was, considering it was primed to be bumped every time Jon had a good game. Turned out, he sucked way too much to even warrant that.

    Big disappointment tbh.

    although it has to be said that he got a wrist fracture towards the end of last season and it definitely affected him.

    I am glad that he got paid. NBA careers are short and his started relatively late. His story was quite uplifting. He should be thankful for his opportunity and life changing money. Wishing him the best obviously but he has been slumping badly.

    Completely forgot about this until I was watching yesterday’s Raptors game..he got benched in the 2nd half and is apparently on the verge of being removed from the rotation of a bad Orlando team..

    I looked up his numbers and he legitimately could be the worst player in the NBA

    31% from the field, 19% from 3, -6 BPM and in the bottom 10 in the NBA in all on/off metrics..Jesus, he’s going to be out of the league after this contract..

    He should call Pop every single day and thank him for giving his kids a bright future..

    It's amazing how many folks here thought he was a legit good player. Some here still think he's better than guys on the team. It's not a situation where he was buried on the bench either. He got plenty of chances.

    The counter-argument to that could be that the Spurs system makes guys like Forbes and Cunningham better than they'd be on other rosters, tbh.

    He was lucky to cash in and good move for him. If Orlando waived him, would Spurs want him back? Role players like him thrived in our system. But that was probably not true anymore without the big 3 and Kiwi to hide his weakness.

    I only found him valuable his final year bc he was. As we saw that whole year, if Kawhi wasn't creating his own shot no one else could on the perimeter.

    Even as GS swept us. Simmons was the only one with the athleticism and "Lance Stephenson" type of one on one skills, which is all the Spurs needed to beat GSW that year imo.

    That's the missconception here. When the did he thrive here? That's the part I'm missing, tbh.
