Spurs win projection: 25.6 wins, 3 games behind Phoenix (8th) out West.

Per CTG, the Spurs are playing like a 32.5 win team.

Draft projection via Tankathon: 5th pick with 9% chance at number 1 overall pick.

Toughest schedule left in league

Oh yes, that would be amazing. Keep losing please

anybody else watching the clippers rockets game? Refreshing watching real basketball tbh

[JeffDuncan]

And his failure to develop any offensive repertoire. He had a wide open 6/7 footer tonight and chose to take it to the hole without much determination and got blocked. Pretty typical.

Poeltl was also in a situation where he had the ball 10 ft from the basket, and the defender took a step back to keep him from driving. Poeltl looked around desperately for somebody to pass the ball to, while he was 10 ft from the basket, wide open. It was pathetic.

Yeah, I was yelling for him to shoot - one of the few times I recall actually yelling all season.

Hey guess what losing teams probably have starters who are plus minus negative. Still using plus minus... wow

Box Plus Minus is a better stat to use...and their BPM's don't paint a pretty picture either, tbh.

85-90 sixers up, 10:32, pop subs gay out and enters DDR. Our "death line up" of mills, marco, DDR, carrol, Poodle. 1:55 seconds later we are down 85-98. COMON POP

Well, is this a good year to have a lottery pick? Anyone awesome going to be available? I don't follow college/international play.

Wiseman out of Memphis should be the #1 pick at this point. Outside of the top 3 picks this is supposed to be a weak draft class.

Thanks bro.

[BackHome]

Yeah this is the worse draft to tank but they do have a lot of good PG in top 17 and you know Poop loves drafting PG...

[duncan2k5]

I have my issues with DeRozan but he’s played very well the past few games.

this means what? u want to keep him now??

exactly..we are losing because DDR and LMA suck...

[DPG21920]

No. I want him gone. But in evaluating the past few games and what ails the team? He’s not the problem.

[Prose]

He's gassed and shot an airball. It happens. But he still lunged out the end line going after his own rebound. At least he's acting like he gives a damn. He's got more boards than the 6'11" Aldridge.

[Prose]

I would rather watch this garbage time lineup for 48 minutes than the regular rotation

[Prose]

Got hammered on the glass 51-32. But we held 'em to 115. Big defense improvement.

Its not that impressive bc phily is probably the only other team in the league that compete with the spurs in terms of poorly fitting together talent and constructing a non shooting too many big men roster. Only reason they are better is bc each of those players they have are better than our "stars" and at least they try shooting 3s.

Not excited about this draft since outside of Wiseman it's guard heavy. Spurs already have like 50 guards on their roster. Adding another won't make a difference.

Huh? What isn't impressive? Getting clobbered on the boards?
