Yes you’re absolutely right. I left out the word later from my post on accident. It should have read “And it was a day later”. That was my point, it came a day later as if it was forced.
He shouldn't even get credit for that 1 act. Pop was a dumbass about the Zaza situation. Originally he said after game 1 that he didn't believe it was intentional. Only a day or two later did he call out Zaza. #2 deserves a lot of hatred for the stunt he pulled last year but I feel Pop not sticking up for him immediately gave Uncle Dennis an easy opening to say "Hey #2 Pop doesn't have your back look at how he didn't even stick up for you until it was obvious that Zaza hurt you. Do you really want to spend the rest of your career with a guy who doesn't always have your back."

DeRozan getting ejected is a headline on the front page of CNN lol
That.
Pop should bench him next game anyway. Series is lost, take back at least some Spurs pride in having players behave like men.
precisely
The idiot did the same in game 3. He doesn't get a call, he loses his mind (that little he has of it). What a ing egotistic moron, couldn't care less about the team, they guy is only stats and iso-me.
(the durant green double technical was a mistake, they were just laughing, really)
So the loss is on the refs? is this your point? if coach blames the refs then millionaires will play hard?
DeRozan penetration and kicking out is the best way to generate any decent looks from 3. Without him Spurs will not be able to generate enough offense to win.
do you have any stat supporting this? Like, how many (open) 3s were shot from DDR penetrations?
Non saying you are wrong, but do have any number?
He's first on the team in drives with 16.8 a game, second is White at 12.5 per NBA.com. Not sure how many of these result in successful kick outs for 3s.
DePression one season of his bipolar bull has been more than enough
True, he's not the ideal player.
But who else on the team is going to handle the ball, get his own shots, score, lead the team in assists and stop stagnation on offense pretty much every time he's asked to.
If any of us had to do all that, we might be depressed too.
I freaking HOPE... The younger Pop would have... This Pop sees DDR as a pet project to bring redemption to, so be prepared to have him on the team until either he or Pop retires
It's called trade
He leads the team in assists in playoffs
Actually thew thing I like about his game is his 1-dribble lateral penetration+12 footer or + fake-under-the-defender; on those he is indeed an all star. Unfortunately he seems to have forgotten them, for lazier 5-dribble +9 ft fadeaway
Yes, that wasn't my question though. But yes he leads in assists.
I believe you are right. More than likely that’s how Pop sees Dumbmar. But to my mind, if Pop is willing to tolerate his antics that’s the ultimate indication that he has come loose from his moorings. For such regular outbursts Pop would have buried any other player deep in his doghouse until the first opportunity to dump the guy. Deadman comes to mind in recent history, and he was a model citizen compared to Dumbmar.
I'm still steamed after watching the clip of him tossing the ball. Dude needs to go. I dont care what they get. You want to tank? Trade him for whatever you can and tank next year. That ty at ude doesn't happen here. Go at in NY or some other place were you can rot and be a brat.
I don't care what his stats are on this mediocre team, he is not good long term for the Spurs
I’m honestly really shocked at people on their soapbox regarding DeRozan and him throwing the ball. Is it annoying? Absolutely. He really does a poor job of controlling his emotions when he’s not getting calls.
But all the outrage and asking for him to be traded because you were offended? To each their own, but that is a bit much to me. He is by all accounts a great teammate, he’s kind to the media and doesn’t do anything off court that draws any negative attention.
He’s far more Spurs material than not.
All of you all talking about moving DeRozan --- wtf are you smoking? He's due $55 million over the next two years. You think anyone is taking that contract and giving the Spurs anything of value back?
Look, lets not go overboard with the hyperbole. Plenty of teams would love to have DeRozan. Teams that struggle to attract talent and want to make a playoff push; he has value.
Agree. But we're not getting anything back save for a 2nd rounder and a G-league player.
