Meh...they just blew it...we had our chances...chalk it up to a learning experience...plus the ball just wasn't falling our way anyway...
I remember a story that Sean told about his time from Arizona. Lute Olsen took him aside one time and said: "Sean, you're not a very good player when you don't play hard." That truism applies to teams as well as players. Spurs just didn't play hard tonight, except for maybe the last 2 minutes of regulation.
I remember a time when that was a coach's responsibility.......Pop allowed this bull for 3 and a half quarters when he should have ripped their asses five minutes into the game. It's not as if we haven't seen this behavior from the Spurs countless other times. The Spurs, more than anything now, need an owner that puts some pressure on Pop and asks him to be a coach for 82 games a year, not just when he feels like it.
What's worse is that the Spurs seem to use that lazy ass back-to-back fatigue excuse. Had they treated tonight like a hard practice, they would've won in double figures. Dumb ass decisions and the most untimely shooting I've seen in ages.
Now it's "Fire Holt" at 6-2.
Gets better every year.
Gotta love November losses.
Where did I make mention of firing Holt? You might live in Texas so illeteracy is quite probable but please tell me where I even hinted at 'firing' Peter Holt?
My point was, is and will continue to be, I don't think it's a good thing when you have a hands-off owner that knows nothing about the game giving complete control to one man (Gregg Popovich). I'm not saying I want a Mark Cuban but Pop, like some players has a tendency to get lazy, as evidenced tonight and basically on every back-to-back for the last TWO YEARS. I wont even bother mentioning losing to a grossly inferior Dallas team last year....wink-wink
Goodie for you. Feel free to join boutons in the "Spurs suck" line.
Do you not recognize quotes unless someone signs them in the air with his hands?Where did I make mention of firing Holt?
You want a different owner.
Period.
Don't puss out now.
Ok....?
Can you do us all a favor and leave the in forums then? We wouldn't miss you or your at ude.
The players need to do it for themselves. Sean has said so NUMEROUS times on the telecast. The Sean/Avery/David teams ALWAYS policed their own effort levels. I think Pop was the coach of a lot of those times, no? If the coach has to do it over the course of an 82 game season, plus playoffs, he runs the risk of the players tuning him out, losing the team so to speak. It has to come from the locker room leadership.
That would be illiteracy...with an I. Like as in "ironic."
So now Pop is back in the horrible column?
ok.
Lets see this thread after they beat Phoenix, Dallas, and Houston again.
Where was this last night?
Where was the Parker is not elite, after the NY game when he hung 33 on Marbury, and others.
Selective stupidity.
A fukkin loss to the Bobcats at home by a championship caliber team defines stupidity, bull and suck.
I didn't watch the game, because I wouldn't waste my fukkin time on a popacoached team anymore...
Fuk him. Walton is dead on with ownership holding pop accountable every fukkin game instead of when he wants 2.
Everybody needs to stop ing about this loss and just take it. Something was bound to give The Bobcats' losing streak or our winning streak. Unfortunately ours was the one that got stopped. That's called law of averages. Best thing to do is suck it up and prepare for the next game.
Also I'd prefer to lose to the Bobcats and Cavaliers than to lose to those overpaid, overrated thugs called the Knicks.![]()
omg they lose 2 games and you're going to quit everything to do w/ the spurs? get a life; you don't deserve to be a spurs fan.
this is the bobcats we are talkin about, and this team has been known to lose most of there games on b2bs, but to the damn bobcats?![]()
The Spurs missed a lot of layups and 3's. They made a lot of mistakes. They played 3 quarters and 10 minutes like they didn't care. And they got owned by Adam Morrison. It appeared Bowen hadn't watched any Morrison tape at all to prepare. But then LJ and I were talking about it and that's logical ... Morrison wasn't supposed to start. So Bowen probably prepared for Gerald Wallace all day and then got caught off guard having to defend Morrison. I expect the next time they matchup that Bowen will be able to defend him better.
As I've said it's called the law of averages. For me it was about to happen. Remember we had two games wherein we had to play catchup. That catches up with you. it could be the next game or the next or the next next. Now regarding my statement about preferring to lose to the Cavs or Bobcats, I don't know if you noticed but there was a bit of sarcasm there

So what's new? We simply lose about half of our back-to-backs, regardless of who we're playing.
Strange stats. We shot 37% and made 2-17 3s, with 18 TOs, but we outrebounded them by 22!
I'm not worried.
Whaddayareckon? Should we start benching 2 of the big three for back to backs and letting the benchers take over? It couldn't go much worse on b2bs than it already is.
That happens when you miss a lot of layups and get your own boardsbut we outrebounded them by 22!![]()
It was a lazy game. I was surprised that the Spurs played so slow. The only one hustling up and down the floor was Elson. They were cold from three point land, and Finley had no business in the game at the critical moment. We keep waiting for him to heat up and he takes a weak ass jump shot with no time on the clock in regulation. WTF? It was the first truly dissapointing loss of the season. There will be more, you can count on it. It dosen't mean the championship dream of this year is gone, it just means that we need to work harder. So remove the sand from your vagina's San Antonio. The Spurs are going to be Ok, just a ty night.
