I thought Jakob helped protect the paint much better than Lyles did.
Wait for it...

Spurs are only up 6 so anything can happen but yeah just the fact that they didn’t get blown out of the 1st quarter like they have been lately is enough for Pop to like this change
I wouldn’t be surprised is the Spurs lose some of their youth - White or Lonnie especially. If you are that much better than Beli/Mills/Forbes yet don’t get to play for a team that is losing? It’s one thing if you are winning, another to sit there watching guys everyone knows don’t deserve to play.
Would not be surprised to see one included in a trade or possibly leave in free agency due to this.
Defense? WE don't need no steenking defense.
Yeah, the hypocrisy is astonishing. Dejounte punished for his inability to space the floor. Derozan? Nope. Lonnie punished for his defensive lapses. Forbes? Nope.
No issues starting Jakob - he’s a great defender (even on the perimeter) when he’s playing well. It’s the quad-grouping of Beli/Mills/Forbes/DeRozan that is the issue especially when 2 or more play at the same time.
no, no. i was told pop is the GOAT at integrating young talent and that it's not particularly close
So, we play Paul George and Load Management next week and then Harden and Westbrook a few days after. If Pop still trots out Mills and Forbes together and our team D continues to be this ty, how many points will those guys have combined in each of those games?
So you hope they lose so they won't use again a formula that made them win...
Yep. They surrounded Giannis with players who can shoot and defend. They surround dejounte with players who can't defend, and struggle to shoot
Please, it’s the Wizards, another lottery team. I’m sure the Sixers or the next good team the Spurs face will make this lineup look like . They’re barely even beating the Wizards right now with this new lineup as is.
This feels like a pretty easy Spurs win, tbh. Margen going broke tonight.
This rotation isn't going to win you games against actual competent teams like, I don't know, the Lakers? Clippers? Jazz? Nuggets? If the spurs win tonight watch pop try to pull the same rotation against a tall 76ers team.
Congratulations, we found a team that might be just as bad as the Spurs
The Spurs are using the 2020 version of the Finley/Mason/Bogans trio to keep them out of the lottery. Dark times lol
Yup, I was thinking just that. Lol
Terrible shot selection there Forbes
timvp: is there any real concern in your opinion of Pop alienating the youth?
pop laying a dump on the edge lords tonight with his mastermind lineup.
What else is new with him? He's the biggest chucker in the team.
Patty got just got destroyed lol
lmao, this is on point
I've seen better defense played during All-Star games, tbh.
