    ...and we still do, for some reason Buford signed a third string SG and a fourth string PF, how the does that make any sense ?

    Like signing Gino and T-Vag to terrible deals wasn't bad enough, let's just sign players at positions that are stacked already...

    Anyone has an explanation? Buford is not over the Finals and is drinking again?

    Who's the third string SG that we supposedly signed? The only SG that we've signed so far is Marco Bellineli, and he's a second string combo guard.

    u know ,the parker green leonard duncan splitter lineup was the best defensive starting 5 in the nba. Splitter certainly contributed to that. His contract was market value. I assume wanted splitter to walk and baynes to start?

    Go home , your drunk, if you think beli is a third string Sg

    joseph,beli, manu, diaw, and baynes/pendergrah is how are bench will probably look next season

    Yeah but none good enough to backup TP...

    Our two SGs were good enough and same thing with the PF position.

    a lot of point guards that can't pass the ball. We have like two guys on the roster that can assist the ball. And one of those likes to throw the ball to the opponents hands.

    The problem is that they didn't improve a bit. Replacing Marco with Neal is the same thing and Blair so far has had a better career than Jeff Pendergraph. Lol @ still no backup SF, but looking for a big when you have 6 of them already. Not releasing Bonner, giving Manu a stupid deal.... Man they had 20 ing millions. I really feel sorry for Tim, the guy that at age of 37 has to be the best player on the team. He'll probably have to play even better next year when Manu and company start ting their pants.

    CoJo showed in the playoffs that he is probably capable of playing 8-10mins behind TP. Then typically Manu plays backup PG (formerly with Neal, now with Marco at SG) for 4-6 mins. TP plays the other 32-34.

    If u don't like the spurs offseason and it bothers you that much get off the bandwagon and font jump back on during season. ing about the offseason is pointless because its all on paper and no team has proven anything. Oh except for the spurs. The team that stood pat for theist part was 28 seconds from a 5th le. Reality check please.

    PATFO doesn't look at depth charts on how to build teams. They look at roles

    The Spurs had only one rotation "small forward" (and in Pop's system, SG/SF are interchangeable just as PF/C are) and were an unlucky break from Larry O'Brien numero cinco.

    No team plays a 90s lineup anymore, it's all about maximizing your shot attempts and trying to make your opponent get bad shots. Man defense is less necessary than team defense.

    Joseph developing and taking the backup pg role full time will be huge this season.

    We have a back-up PG. his name is Cory Joseph. And for SF, we still have a huge chunk of the offseason to go. Why are you assuming the roster is 100% finished with being adjusted?

    And as far as I'm concerned, we did pretty damn well without a legit backup SF the past season.

    Never thought I'd actually see RC haters on these forums. Unbelievable.

    I think the forum got way dumber when the new arrivals came in during the playoffs. You always get dumb bandwagoners during then.

    Most of the new arrivals went armchair Pop or armchair RC mode after game 6.

    Bravo to those of you that aren’t satisfied with this ty offseason so far. Apparently everyone that can't handle our criticism think that "RC and Pop can do no wrong." These Spurs homers have blind faith in the FO and are satisfied with 4 championships even though we haven't won since 2007. Anyone disagreeing is a spoiled little brat. Those of us that criticize the Spurs organization get called losers by these homers.

    The funny part is who are the real losers in here? The ones that are satisfied with second place (4 championships from the past) and have blind faith in the FO & Pop OR we that are tired of the FO taking shortcuts year after year and desperately want to see a 5th championship banner go up the rafters?

    Are the losers the ones that follow along like a flock of sheep with everything the FO does or are the losers the ones that feel sorry for Timmy that he’s had to carry the Pop and the FO for many years now? SMH… the answer is obvious.
    Losers are happy with 2nd place.
    Losers feel fortunate to have already won a le.
    Losers will accept anything the front office does - because - well - see above...
    Losers think you are selfish and spoiled - to be critical of anything - Pop and the front office do.


    Do you think Lakers and Celtics fans - should just stop wanting their team to win more les?
    Do you think the Celtics fans gave up their rights to question their front office?


    Spurstalk is full of losers and this offseason has revealed what losers most of you are. No one is calling for Pop's head. No one is calling bull on the Manu contract - as much as I love Manu - he is not worth this contract and he has deteriorated significantly and it is painful to see.

    Losers will continue to lose. Enjoy.

    Pop's biggest error was not subbing in Duncan for the last possession of regulation and that was it. No amount of coaching or GMing can change whether a shot is made or missed, tbh.

    The offseason doesn't end until Game 1 of the Spurs season tips off, tbh. There's still a lot of possibilities, such as moving De Colo/Bonner/Joseph or whoever doesn't look rotation worthy. Remember, James Harden was traded just after preseason ended.

    But there's one thing I think will deter a trade: contract length. The team doesn't want to take on long contracts because they're maximizing flexibility for the 2014 and 2015 offseasons. As it is the Spurs are still a good bet to come out of the West despite not tying up a lot of money in their core (The Big 3 make less money than Kobe will next season).
