DJ was holding the Spurs back...from being a top 3 worst team in the NBA![]()
He’s wildin’ out but you can’t deny the talent is there.

i think this is what stirred it up
DJ sonning Green lol
Green getting the W.
Murray and Young taking 52 of Atlantas 82 shots...
Talking all that and combining for 83 points only to choke and lose to the worst team in the league![]()
Why is DJM becoming more of a punk? Is the Atlanta coach McMillan letting the chippy stuff go because he's a Seattle guy too?
I think the Atlanta "honeymoon" will be short lived with the player egos clashing.
DJM is a great example of where Spurs culture (Pop mostky) can make or break guys careers.
I wish DJ could have had Tim, Tony, Manu around him.
This team needs a damn cornerstone and all of a sudden our development of guys like Keldon, DJ, Vassell and maybe Sochan etc etc can repatriate compe ive basketball.
DJ played two years with Manu and Tony. He’s still a punk.
That’s his true character showing up, suppressed when he was here in Spurs.
It's truly astonishing how the people around you can change your trajectory.
I would argue though that Murray's antics here are not inherently destructive. What he's doing though is wasting the antics during a nothing game that will give him a reputation and bring attention from the refs.
Contrast this with Robert Horry's foul on Nash in the playoffs. That is probably the biggest bang-for-the-buck dirty move in NBA history. No matter how much hindsight is given, no one would ever tell Horry not to commit that foul in that exact manner again.
Having a guy that is capable of doing stuff like this is not a bad thing as long as he's the one that maintains control. Unfortunately for Murray, he is an Instagram suckling whose brain is on auto-pilot and therefore has to react to all pettiness indiscriminately. Some LSD treatment would probably allow him to focus on the right things and take it to the next level.
I really think that if DJ hadn’t been drafted by the Spurs, he’d be out of the league now, or at best, someone’s 12th man. He was so ing awful when he got here. Couldn’t shoot, and could barely dribble.
McMillan is a NC guy. He grew up in Raleigh, NC. I would say McMillan's teams have always played dirty. Remember the '05 Sonics with Jerome James, Danny Fortson. He encourages this type of stuff. I would say also McMillan played with Gary Payton who was a big-time trash talker and probably view DJ's trash talking in the same light as Gary's trash talk. He probably feels it gives them an edge like it gave the sonics when he played with Gary.
Looked to me that Murray threw off the arm of the ref that was trying to separate the players. I was surprised he didn't get another tech for putting hands on a ref--a super no-no that usually brings on an ejecteion.
Damn he is becoming such an idiot…

He’s only revealing it. It’s been there all along. I’m guessing the Spurs knew it, and understood that even if he improved more, he isn’t a foundation piece, but Klutch would want him paid like one. We sold high.
Still glad we traded him because we would be stuck at 30+ wins and a play in spot with him.
Exactly this. Which is why him chirping at us now that he’s gone makes me laugh. Dude would be a G league scrub if it wasn’t for the Spurs.
Look here the DJ hater squad is gathering aroundI'm glad he's off the team, he was a ball stopper and his defense is overrated. Now we can watch this beautiful ball movement and defense by the Spurs
The culture is real. These guys become s as long as they leave the Spurs.
How long will the path, that Robinson, Duncan and Ginobili created, last?
I find it funny that Sprinkles can pull that same goofy and be praised as having next while averaging a triple single but DJM is the clown.
Spurstalk at it’s finest.
Have you seen Murray’s behavior ? It’s not trashtalking, it’s being disrespectful. You don’t touch you defender’s head after hitting a 3, just to humiliate him. The guy is a bag, period.
Sochan equally has boy tendencies. Atleast DJM can back it up.
Zollins might be more bout that life than both.
