    Hey, remember when D Russell was an overrated scrub that nobody wanted? Lol, maybe it's Spurstalk's IQ that should be questioned.
    I still think he's overrated and he's not an all star but nobody said he's a scrub. If you think D.Russell is a max player thats gonna lead you to anything then i question Spurstalk IQ as well.

    One thing that keeps sticking out like a sore thumb is the angry, arrogant, old fart, Pop never takes any of the blame himself even though it is him who determines the lineup, the subs utions, the minutes, who sits out the game, etc. And he has had some atrocious lineups in general. Pop and RC are the two who are responsible for who is in our lineup and how much they get paid. They seem to think giving an old, washed up guy like Gasol $16,000,000.00 per season instead of trying to get a decent 3 and D is the way to go. Or a legit Point Guard. At tonight's post game presser he was somewhat apologetic about how he acted like a spoiled brat last night in NYC. Maybe he received a call from back home. The way he treats reporters who are just doing their job and who probably make less in one year than Pop makes per game. If anyone needs a definition of an asshole just look it up online and you'll see a picture of a senile, old, angry Pop. You are out of touch, Pop. And you seriously need to get over yourself. You've allowed everything to go to your head. And when talking to reporters try to act older than a 5 year old even though that is where your personality is these days. In other words, Pop, grow the up!
    Well said. He always had that mantra of wanting players to get over themselves but he has the biggest, most fragile ego of all those guys. He got away with it in the past cause the team was still a contender and he could hide behind the Big 3 and Kawhi and the media would eat that up and say “that’s why Pop is the GOAT.” Now that he has to face humility, he’s still arrogant with reporters and now it’s just obnoxious and disgusting. Like you’re paid to coach this team and you’re doing a bad job at it.

    The good news is that it looks like Derozan isn't going through another post-Raptors game slump.

    Yeah make the playoffs so the Warriors can make fun of our defense with their 3s scoring 120 points a game and showing off to the fans. I'm confident Denver would easily beat us too. Teams already figured out how to beat the Spurs.

    Man we need to get taller more athletic better shooters and better defender
    since 2016....

    The spurs played from behind double digits almost the whole game. They played their most inspired ball of the game up until the 2min mark of the second where they got it down to 40-36. The defense held strong and LA with the help of White pounded the ball inside. Then with 2min to go, white gets benched for Patty, they stopped going inside to LA and Spurs finish the half down 52to 38.

    The point being its a game of runs and this Spurs team playing at its pace of inside out is at its best . The third was perfect example of what happens when the Spurs match opponents shooting threes. Game became a blowout of over 20. Defense at that frenetic pace takes a massive hit since the spurs are defensive challenged individually (too short or unathletic) , team d has no time to set up and they cant match it with shooting ability.
    but but high qi

    I still think he's overrated and he's not an all star but nobody said he's a scrub. If you think D.Russell is a max player thats gonna lead you to anything then i question Spurstalk IQ as well.
    he would easily be the best player in the spurs roster (yes, much better than spur Doncic, Derrick White)

    Spurs were only athletic for one year and they made the WCF that year. Then they went on to trade 2 of their most athletic players in Dedmon and Simmons and extended Gasol and Mills. The franchise went to right there and a lot of us knew it.

    Understanding and accepting you cannot win it every year yes is success. This mindset of win it all or what's the point is ridiculous. You rather be a bottom feeder for years and winning 20 games and then have one good run or consistent levels of compe ion?

    When Pop leaves I think some of you are in for a massive shock. So quick to blame and think that the instant answer is right there and waiting. If it was wouldn't every team do it? Oh just trade everyone for young awesome players! So easy why didn't they think about that??

    You guys are brilliant here. I'm shocked everyday how no one is a head coach or gm. I think your talents are wasting away here. I'm sure some of you will be on the short list when Pop is being replaced. I hear there might be an opening in New England. Anyone applying?

    I rarely post after a disappointing loss like the last two nights, but ouch, those games did look awful. The inability for this team to get stops when they need them has been glaring pretty much all year.

    LaMarcus played good, but the shooters gave them zero chance of victory. Marco's rythm was totally broken by the Allstar break.

    Does the Spurs defensive philosophy of forcing drivers baseline essentially make the defense broken in today's 3 point heavy league, or is the defense just that bad?

    Is Pop's attempt to use zone like waving the white flag?

    All I know is that it seems like every no name player in the league has career nights against this team.

    As bad as the defense is, remove White from the floor and it is practically unwatchable.

    Maybe getting back home will get the shooters back on track, but that defense
