Novak is getting more playing time now...
We know what Pop's priorities are now...
The playoffs will be live by the 3 or die by the 3...

Forget about having some ounce of post defense.
Shooting 3's are more important especially when your best 3 pt shooters will brick those in the playoffs.
Free that man! Free him damnit!
Agreed. Spurs so average and committed to lazily getting rolled by good teams, they might as well start Splitter. They can only play better with him.
Unless Splitter is going get worked into the rotation from this point on, I don't see the Spurs getting past even the second round. With Pop's idiotic choices of Bonner, Blair and Novak for substantial minutes, they are royally ed. After Duncan and Dice, Tiago is the next best defensive big.
Defense wins championships, Pop.
Do the right thing and free HIM, Pop.
If not, then damn you to , Pop!
Thank you Bruno. Free Tiago Splitter!
Co ing sign.
Blair/Bonner front-court has to end for ing defensive sake.
Please no Bonner/Blair lineups in the playoffs. Especially against DAL and LA.
they need to get him going otherwise teams will just study tape of the Lakers/Spurs game and shut them down. They need to post more people because the pick-and-roll play is getting shut down by decent-to-good teams.
Free that man!!!!

Let my people go!
lol that actually has some merit.
Instead of starting Antonio, Pop should have had a look at starting Splitter earlier in the season. If he wanted to set a defensive tone then Splitter could have done that and started for 5 minutes like Blair and then you can bring McDyess in, that way you don't have that horrible Blair and Bonner defensive pairing off of the bench.
It would also cover up Tiago's offensive struggles if he started as he wouldn't be asked to score a lot and who knows with Manu and TP feeding him the ball he might of actually been a bigger offensive weapon starting the game. IMO the best pairing for Tiago was to start him with TD and the rest of the starters as Manu and TP are the two that could make the most use of Tiago's offensive skills.
Unbelievable choice from Pop to never play him with Tim.
For the love of God and all that is sacred and holy in this world Free THAT Man!
come by here my Lord come by here!!!!![]()
Why play defence, we want to play fun-ball - Steve Nash
He must be set free!

Too late... not going to happen now.![]()
Pop's vanity will never permit it.
Good.
You mean Pop's turdiness.
Out-rebounded by 14. Kept our shooters and drivers bottled up with great defense. The Heat kicked our butts.
The Spurs needed to sacrifice some wins this year to develop their only other true big. Now they'll have to play small ball and hope for some inspired performances every series.
