I know, you guys are like........not this again. He too would of been a spark player off the bench like that dude from Dallas was today. (the one that came in for Dampier) But oh no, we gotta get rid of players like that and then watch them prosper on other teams

I had gotten over Pops especially with majority salivating over him even months after gone. but i have to admit that he would have been nice. At this point would have been better to have him then Gooden.
If somebody like Hollins can make a difference in a playoff game, it's not so far-fetched that Bonsu or Hairston could have made a contribution as well.
I agree. This team is lifeless and Pops is a raw, energizer bunny. I loved his enthusiasm, hustle and energy.
What did Ryan Hollins give the Mavs on this day? Energy, hustle, defense and a heckuva "putback" slam. It literally energized the Mavs.
I know Pops is an end-of-bench player at this point, but I would rather have a guy like that, whose "arrow" is pointing up, than a lifeless, washed-up, player, whose arrow is pointing downward.
I'd take him over Bonner.
I'd take Kwame over Bonner.
All along and even now I would have much rather had Malic, Pops on our bench instead of Bonner, and Ime. But this is pretty much moot at this point.
Hahahahhhhhahahahahahahahahhaaaahahhhahhaha.
Not that there's anything factually incorrect with the assertion that the Spurs could have their own energy player contribute in the playoffs be it Hairston or Pops or whomever . . .
BUT
You guys do realize that Pop would never play those guys right?
It took him 3.75 games to even give George Hill a chance.
That's the way it is.
Look on the brightside.
Next year Bonner, Kurt Thomas, and Michael Finley will all be back to play ahead of any supposed young sparkplug, be it Gist, Hairston, Mahinmi, M.Willimas, or anyone else.
I'd rather they fail now than make it close enough to think that a healthy Manu would make up the difference.
that's not hyperbole as far as defensive presence goes
And if a frog had wings...
It make sense.
There is no doubt in my mind we should have kept Pops. But Poopavitch, as another poster stated so well, seems to consider athletic ability to be a character flaw.
Honestly Kwame is not as bad as people say. If he wasn't tied with being the No.1 pick people would see him as a solid big man.
Pop decided the Spurs couldn't risk having a young energy player in our lineup. It turns out we couldn't afford not to.
We've got experience and veteran leadership coming out of our ears...what better time to bring a raw young energy player into the fold?
I'd rather we would have tried more options than be content/complacent with injury excuses.

Pop screwed up big time on Pops. Pops is the kind of player this old folks home team needs. Our team looks like the city morgue. Well not Tony & Tim but the rest of the dead bodies lying around the crime scene. Maybe we should trade Pop for Pops...he,he
he would of helped us out alot...to bad pop doesn't like young players
I expect the front office will just rationalize it that way regardless.
