I know he thinks it's cute to do his now annual game where he throws a game but it's never proved to have a real purpose in the long run. The team hasn't won a le ever since Pop started pulling this nonsense three years ago and I doubt TD can say "Thanks to Pop benching me that one game, we'll have a shot to win it all!" Oh yeah, another thing, the team hasn't won a game when Pop benches all or some of the Big 3 and in this condensed season, where playoff seeding is more important, it's plain reckless to do this now. We're still within distance to get the #1 seed yet there are plenty of teams who aren't far off from moving past us in the standings. This crap has to stop and I hope the league prohibits teams from taking a dive like this by next season.

You play to win the game!
dude there are already threads to vent into ... you reserved your first post for a ty thread ?
The team was getting too confident and full of themselves. Time to tinker. These guys shouldn't forget whose in charge. I got 4 les, you know. I like it when people talk about me.
Fcking Corey Joseph showing his inner Dirk by chucking up three's. I guess its a free for all tonight.
How is it ty? Where in my post can you prove that anything I've pointed out is wrong? Has the team won the le in a year where Pop has done this? Has the team won a game when Pop has pulled all or some of the Big 3? Are teams NOT close to passing us by in the standings? Is playoff seeding NOT important in a 66 game season?
no starters, these scrubs play like dleague wankers, every man for himself, no structure on the court....
It's ty because it's been said and being said in multiple threads tbh.
Cue the pile on.
I support you on this.
I'm not sure how old pop is, but he should have taken a seat on the bench. The mental wear and tear could take a toll on him come playoff time.
Who gives a about early season streaks? Seriously?
Thank you. I can't believe I was getting piled on simply because I question Pop throwing games like this when there's no proof it has EVER worked.
This is one of my least favorite habits of Pop. It shows that he's either a pussy or a f@gget.
He's either to pussy to have his team play a tough opponent on the road and actually see them lose. Or he's a got that psychologically likes watching his team get bent over.
Either one, it sucks and can be embarrassing (even if it's just one night of the season).
P.S. If anyone thinks that a one game rest in the last week of February of a compressed schedule is going to make the difference in winning the le or not, you're re ed.
I would not be surprised if we see an injury the next game (just like last year). Then all this about Pop being a genius goes out the window.
I'm sorely disappointed in Pop pulling this tonight. How does this strategy help us in the standings or in a drive for the top seed? If you have a chance to win 8 straight on the road why not go for it? The sad thing is this crap strategy may backfire on Pop and the Spurs may lose in Denver too. I don't get it man.
lmao @ Smitty saying its all part of "Pop's master plan"... does everybody in the media kiss Pop's ass?
I'm feeling the same thing. Check out my post above.
It backfired in Denver a couple years back. Duncan was playing great til pop decided to rest the big three, and Duncan struggled the rest of the season. He just doesn't get it.
Says the guy with 65k posts, each one a unique masterpiece
I agree on most of it, but playoff seeding is NOT important in a lock-out season. All the Spurs need to do is get in, the West is THAT wide open. No team they should fear.
Actually, I think it's good to see the bench play extended minutes! If one game is important to the health of Duncan and Parker then great move Pop!
My prediction comes true!
Dumbass.
