No one to blame. They just aren’t good. I’ve defended our guys all season but it’s time to hang it up. This isn’t a cliff jump or a Spurs bashing post or a woe is Spurs fan post. I’ll still watch and love the team and proudly proclaim my fandom. But my hopes of the 18-19 rendition of the Spurs being anything but bad are dashed. Teams like the Kings deserve our spot in the playoff race way more anyway
Probably the most reallstic take
Yeah he’s done after this season
Well they scores 29 less points on us, so it's a huge improvement.
I guess in fairness to Pop, a lot of good looks just rimmed out. But how do you explain last night? Or the rodeo trip altogether? Love the Spurs, no ill intent, but they’re done this year.
No one to blame??? How about Pop and RC starting with the contracts given to Gasol and Mills, then followed by the worst trade in Spurs history?
It's time to step away from the game and focus our efforts on the sexist, phobic, xenophobic tyrant in the White House
This. Wouldnt be surprised if RC's wife was part of the package to Alpha Masai
Are you familiar with the person called Uncle Dennis? The contracts i agree.
Oooooook, no one on the court to blame
Well said.
We ing suck and yet 8th place is probably still attainable .Spurs are soo trash on the road
Still believe we are clinched to the playoffs
Have expected these days are coming and just accept the fact Spurs are no more contender
race to the ty 8th spot nobody wants beings
Pop use to have a philosophy where he would put players in situations where they were most likely to succeed.........Not so much, anymore.
At least we are not the Lakers. They are desperate to win and they keep losing.
Let lebron get swept and us a better pick tbh. Making playoffs is completely pointless right now. People say playoff experience, but what experience is KD torching you for 40 every game and sending you home in a week after 4 non compe ive games?
Denver would be good playoff experience though if we could somehow land in 7th spot. But damn 8th would be such a waste of time.
Please baby Jesus... help us get the number 1 lottery pick
ing joke
the problem is not "making or not making the playoffs", the problem is in the decisions of the front office that refuses to do the right thing.
- believing that Gasol (who can not defend absolutely anyone in the pick and roll) is still a professional player, and giving him a partially guaranteed third year with absolutely no need.
- placing three one-dimensional shooters on an already short list of real talent
- keeping Dante and Cun on the list (two former players), when they should be using this space to try to find real players (Spurs no longer have Duncan, Kawhi, Manu and Parker),they need to risk on players with developmental potential (they are the league's best in developing players).
- Spurs did not have a real sf backup in virtually every year of Kawhi, and since 2015 it was becoming clear to anyone who understands the game that the league was becoming a league of versatile wings (warriors and bucks as bigger examples)
- overestimating the culture with Mills and Gasol (who complained of playing time, showing that he is as "selfish" as any player), when Pop is already all culture the franchise needs, the "winning" culture started and ended at # 21, it's no coincidence that the two remaining stars asked to leave the franchise in subsequent years.
- the main thing for me is that they did not adapt to the game (and I'm not talking about that bs of 40 3pt per game, the best shot is the open shot) ,
I'm talking about not understanding that the league has become a bully-ball league (where much of the fouls marked against defense are actually offensive fouls) and fill the team with soft players that can easily be run over on the court, lack of hardness in this team is something glaring
