    Can someone tell me because I dont get the joke tbh. This schtick from Popovich is getting old, no one else in the world would get away with what he's doing.

    Pop isn't about coaching to win anymore; it's about recruiting for team USA and using his position as a platform to discuss politics/current events.

    Are we really that surprised that the Spurs lost to a playoff team on the road when the Spurs best player who is a top 5 player in the league didn't play due to injury????

    And down our starting C who is also our 3rd leading scorer. I mean Pop definitely coached a ty second half and we missed a ton of shots, but give the Grizz some credit too. They played better than us tonight. Not gonna win em all. It's one game and you move on.

    he sat out due to injury (quad contusion). not sure how OP sees this as losing on purpose.

    Injury occurred against Philly. He played the next game against Denver(Saturday). GS loses, then he is rested tonight. Just as most of us had predicted

    Some people actually believe the injuries on the Spurs injury report are real

    Kawhi was in warmup clothes, didn't get listed as questionable or probable, news he would sit came out 30min before the game, etc, etc

    It was clear Pop wanted to lose this game and benching Manu was proof

    Because there was zero mention of him possibly sitting out, not even a questionable tag.

    If we aren't losing on purpose, then it's just proof that this team is garbage right now.

    People believing "sudden" injuries that one of the biggest stars in the league has every 5 games

    Here's to Kawhi being gassed when he plays 40 mins a game in the second round, just like last year and just like the year before last

    Totally agree, Pop should play him as many minutes as Zach Lavine.

    Pop wanted to use this game to further his reputation. He does this so when the spurs win its all about him. If they lose.. they can just stay they dont have leonard.

    Pop is the most selfish person in the team.

    don't be silly. It's not every 5 games, it's every 6.
