    The son? Are you sure that was me? When did that happen?

    Thinking I have an issue with you, I don't have an opinion made of your internet persona either way. I don't pay attention when you post; I didn't even know we supossedly had an interaction before.
    Within the last 4-5 months. My post history doesn't go back far enough to find it though.

    Sure you don't, just like all the other so called haters who constantly flock to a thread after I post in it and frequently quote me. I'm a guilty pleasure to you people.


    News Flash: Pau isn't out there setting screens for Danny & just letting Softridge go to work in the post like Tim but rather it's Softridge watching Pau go to work in the post while he hang out at the elbow.
    Pau gets 58 post touches while Softridge is getting 53.
    That's nice . . . too bad it has nothing to do with what I said.

    WHO? WHEN? Damn...You're more stupid that I thought.





    Also, there is a difference between good and great. Kawhi's decent, he's increasing his APG this season, he's getting better at it.

    For some scorers, playmakers skills demand a maturation process, but if you ask me if Kawhi will be elite, All-Time distributor/playmaker in next seasons? No, he won't.


    I know, this exceeds your reasoning ability...But yes, that's one of the reasons. The other is Gasol presence.

    Still 'getting in shape' means that LMA offensive moves are very limited now, he can't stay aggressive or take shots that he usually takes when he's in better physical condition.




    Nah. That's what you want to believe...
    You every time I bring it up and claim I'm "blaming Kawhi".

    No, not ever. Play making for others can be incrementally improved, but it's mostly innate. He doesn't have it. Deal with it.

    Again, you're talking about his being out of shape hampering his effectiveness. Clearly, you're too stupid to decipher between that and passiveness.

    Says the guy who parrots the same as every other Leonard fan boy.

    Sure, I know it. You do it. For everything.

    Play making for others can be incrementally improved, but it's mostly innate.
    And I "constantly argue otherwise?" Right?

    Clearly, you're too stupid to decipher between that and passiveness.
    His out-of-shape thing affects his effectiveness but also is a huge factor for passivity. But again, this is too much for you.

    Dude, you give yourself too much importance, tbh. Seriously son, I don't give a about you.

    Screw the ugly win..anyone who is not seeing the limited upside of this team as presently constructed is fooling himself.

    That disgusting offense was exposed by a Rockets team missing their starting C and on cold shooting night; i shudder to see what Warriors/Clippers will do to them..

    Yup. Limited offense, but it is better than last year abonomition. I don't think Kawhi even knew how to run a proper pick and roll last year. As soft as Gasol is, he also is a better offensive fit the starters than TD.

    It's not significantly better than last year's team, but they do have a formula they believe in for this year. Also, really dont need to worry of any other team.

    Kawhi really should ask for a trade. Just what is there to give a young player confidence in this franchise going forward? At this point it feels more like Pop using his position with the Spurs to better help as coach of the USMNT than as the Spurs' HC.

    but..but....but cliffjumping

    Disturbing on too many levels that this team can't shake or even impose their will-- for a in Quarter-- on a CP3/Blake-LESS Clippers..

    It is time also to question the coaching staff as they have been completely outclassed in this matchup ever since 2015..Not sure what Messina has brought to the table other than his name..

    What a fools gold, antiquated team. The Mavericks started a point guard on a ten day contract and are devoid of anything resembling a go to play maker, yet they win because they're playing small, driving and kicking and generating open threes at will, while the Spurs are playing big and relying on post ups and mid range jumpers.

    The whole zig while most zag notion sounded nice in theory, but in reality, more important than any specific personnel move(s), is a philosophical shift. It's time to stop trying to be smarter than everyone else and join the modern NBA.

    Nuke the team. This team as constructed isn't going anywhere, especially when your supposed 2nd option is a big fat choking pussy

    Kawhi doesn't deserve to be straddled with this lineup and coaching staff. Get what you can for him before he openly demands a trade and start over...

    The lack of response from that dismal loss to the Pelicans is troubling..A home game against a bottom tier team after an embarrassing effort the previous one has mostly been a blowout affair even to the most flawed of Spurs teams (2008-2011)..Not anymore.. this now a third or fourth home L to a really bad team (the Bucks without Giannis should count as one).

    Too many false starts with this team..They just can't be trusted, plain and simple..Leonard aside, you don't know what you are getting on nightly basis from the rest..In previous years 55-60 points from the Big 3 were almost a guarantee..

    This team is caught in no man's land: neither the star power is overwhelming enough nor the new supporting unit (Bertans/Murray/Simmons/Dedmon etc..) is ready enough for the bigtime-- all added to the growing inconsistency of known commodities (Mills/Green) and the terminal decline of Manu/TP..

    And, don't get me started on Pop..He is been in the "Done" territory for a while now..

    Truth bombs galore.

    This team won't win more than two games in the second round. You absolutely cannot rely on anyone except for Kawhi to deliver. The defense is massively overrated and if Kawhi doesn't play out of his mind the Spurs will have another letdown. SDAM should be the new catchphrase around here.

    I know it's a slim chance, but really hope the Spurs can do something at the trade deadline, or pray that there is someone on the buyout list in March.

    In a sense, you are right. But the Spurs roster isn't going to win a le playing small and kicking the ball around for threes because we don't have a line up that can beat GSW. So at best, we could go that route and finish 2nd in the west. Knowing that, I think the Spurs have to find a way to beat the small ball with its bigs. But if LMA can't post up anymore, Spurs are going to fail. It just looks like LMA is uncomfortable on the block this year and can't hit that turnaround he used to hit.

    It's as if people forget what an 82-game season looks like every year.

    Tim was a bigger influence during recovery games than was Pop, I think. There's no leadership in the lockerroom, KL is the "just do your job" guy. He's not a glue guy. Manu would be the glue guy but he's not nearly as prominent on the floor as he once was. It would be nice to have Tim on the bench as an assistant.
