    Yep damn you pop, this could have been a repeat.

    We need to play our game and not play the other teams game, but i think pop has probably realized this now.

    To Pop:

    Play the games instead of playing personnel. Coach's job is to work with your players as a team.

    Some personnel training or discipline might take place, but not all the way until the season-end play off. If you don't like a player, you may just don't sign new contract for next season, but still need to use the player while we already paid.

    If you want to be the King of the team, please be a smart king.

    Concentrate on rebounding the ball. That is all.

    Play the SPURS game, not that small ball, flashy, jump shooting crap. We could have beaten the Mavs with our regular lineup of Rasho/Nazi, Tim, Bowen, Parker, Ginobili.

    I shouted that from my recliner after every loss to the Mavs.

    Get a good long three and a backup PG and hope Javtokas is better than Nazr which won't take much.

    Small ball was the less worst solution against Dallas : Pop wasn't the reason why Spurs lose against Dallas.

    We need a PF that can defend on Dirk or Howard, plain and simple.

    Get more athletic on the bench. Collect more rebounds.

    Find a couple of post players besides Tim that can actually play.

    Hopefully, also find an athletic small forward with some length and/or a backup point that doesn't suck.

    I hope Pop took notes.

    Refreshing to see Zo block some shots. Brought back memories of how the Spurs used to be.

    Obviously, work on obtaining a reliable, sure-handed, and agile center to complement Duncan. A veteran, pressure-tested pg would be nice, also. But the Spurs, and especially Pop, should have learned a huge lesson from the Miami Heat---play the mavericks very physical---they don't like that type of basketball and they wilt.

    Sacramento exposed us for not being physical. Dallas exposed us for not being quick and athletic. I suppose addressing either of those two shortcomings will help immensely. Can you imagine having another guy who has solid low post moves who can draw double teams besides Duncan? Would it not be great to have another guy as quick (almost as quick) as Parker?

    I would like the Spurs to get a Lindsey Hunter type of player as a backup point guard to replace Nick the not-so quick anymore. I would like a Lorenzen Wright type player to replace Nazr.

    I hope Robertas can play. Let Marks prove if he belongs in the NBA. It either time to bring Scola over if he can play or trade his rights. I would like to get Iguadola somehow.

    Get an athletic versatile forward that can rebound and defend.
    Get a backup point guard (or decide to give Beno a real chance).
    Stay healthy.

    I sometimes wonder just how marks would play if given significant minutes. He is faster than Rasho, and he is bound to have better hands than Nazr. He can shoot and rebound and dunk. Is he weak on defense?--is that the reason he is seldom used?
