    Start the dynasty with tank. Leave the dynasty you started with a tank.

    Spurs are tanking--the know they can't win with this group so they're giving the vets an opportunity to showcase for trades later.

    Not Pop's style. I don't believe it.

    Makes no sense. Why would you not trade LMA/DeRozan vs keeping them and hurting their value so you get less with teams watching them lead the Spurs to the lottery?

    Because Pop is unintentionally tanking.

    Lose as many games as possible before the trade deadline. Demorlize the team. Trade lamarsha and Defrozen for two potential top 15 picks.

    Your Pick is a top 10ish pick plus you get two top 15s. You could easily trade two of those picks for a top 7-8 and keep the other pick

    That still makes no sense. If that is your plan, you trade LMA/DeRozan when their value is highest and can still tank. Their values are much less after the start to this season.

    Spurs fans come up with all kind of theories. Maybe Carroll doesn't play cause he's secretly injured? Maybe Pop ain't playing White and Murray together cause of Murray's minutes restriction. Maybe Pop is stealth tanking. None of that is true, the coach is just a senile idiot

    Oh well, lets trade one pure 20ppg, one nearly 20ppg, for a bunch of picks. Great. Will work out for us in the long run /s

    I would say this is half true. Pop and Office made their mind up that this year would be all about the veterans. If they are still losing by January I expect trades. LMA to Portland, DD to Eastern Conference. Gay I feel may stay but who knows. Belli probably moved with Derozan. Patty stays because he is "culture guy".

    What's the point in tanking? To get a lottery pick? It wouldn't matter, they would be sent to the g league for 2 years at the minimum.

    Saw an interesting note on Carroll from a writer who asked him: he said he was confused by why he was not playing. It’s not an injury or anything; Pop is simply choosing to not play him.

    "White on a minutes restriction too", "He really sees something in Lonnie, that's why hes not playing", "Tough love for the young guys"....

    Yeah except you've seen the same bull from the senile moron for the last 5-10 years, he just doesn't have 4 HOFers carrying his ass anymore.

    Absolute madness. There is so much dysfunction in this organization over the past two years. The handling of Kawhi and the poor return, the Morris situation, the bad contracts to role players that don't move the needle, questionable lineups and rotations, zigging while the rest of the league is zagging with ball-movement and the emphasis on maximizing the three point shot, draftees getting no playing time because they aren't over themselves.

    was timmy send to g league for 2yrs? No bc he was top pick and was ready for an nba. All our 20+ picks are just a piece of....average college players with no skills nor physical preparation.
