    I respect the OP but I hope not. This roster construction does not need to be reinforced for another season by making the playoffs and getting another 1st round exit. It will just give pop an excuse to run back the same team for another year. Time to make changes, tbh.

    We will rise in victory like the men at the Alamo! They were all undersized, but the Mexican army was even smaller. We defended the Alamo and Davy Crockett went on to get his own TV series dammit!
    Well f*ck...my wife just told me we didn't win at the Alamo. In fact, she said we were massacred and that it was an actor that got the TV series and not the real Davy Crockett. We are ed you guys!

    technically you are correct (the coach simply does not understand what is happening on the court or is too arrogant to change), we are at the lowest point since 1998, the tendency is to go up.

    Time to take baby steps. First step is to believe that Pop will move Forbes to the bench or some other starting lineup change. Got to do that before we even begin to think playoffs.

    I believe that returning White and Poetl to the starting lineup would do wonders for both mentally, and given White the PG duties, like last year, could get things going more smoothly.

    Spurs need the same thing the Alamo needed... a back door.

    This thread has helped. No troll or sarcasm, I’ve kinda stepped back and kept perspective because of this. Thanks!

    The only thing that’ll make the team worth watching is if demar/LMA tear their achilles.

    Spurs will rise...in the draft to a lottery pick, and then they can rebuild.

    I would not get happy feat just yet. Lots of the Clipper shots were hitting the front of the rim which means they were very tired. I appreciate the win and White looked like he did last year, but I am going to temper my enthusiasm until I see consistency.

    Exactly my thought. I didn’t get to see the game. I was hoping it was Spurs defense, holding the opponent below 100 that won them the game. I like to believe it. But Spurs scored the same low 100, and still Beli/Mills out there. That’s not trying to win on defense, but on papers still trying to outscore the opponent. I don’t know what to make of it.

    ... I don’t know what to make of it.
    The Spurs played well. The players, and coaching, earned praise.

    However.... having said that....

    Paul George was 2 for 11 and had 5 points, and also had 5 turnovers. Call me skeptical, but I'm not entirely certain that can all be credited to the Spurs' defense. Lou Williams was 2 for 10, for 7 pts. Again, I'm glad to credit the Spurs for part of his bad performance, but I think not all of it. The Clippers came in as flat as a homemade tortilla.

    However - there's another however! - in the past the Spurs have often been accused of playing down to the level of the compe ion. At times there's been justification for that criticism. In this game, if the Spurs had played down to that flat level the Clippers were on, it would have been a fugugly disaster.

    But they didn't! They kept their energy level up, and their effort, for the whole game, and won handily. Bless their hearts. For that they deserve all the credit. They showed, dare I say it, a bit of killer instinct, unexpected after what's happened recently. It's good to be the hunter, rather than the hunted, all the time.

    Sorry, Bill. But using "Pop" and "culture" on this forum has a whole different meaning.

    Besides... nothing is over until we say it's over.
