Succinct, yet entirely accurate.
I think the only way he could have coached that bad was that he was trying to...call it a hunch.

79 overall for Tim seems really rough.
I agree, especially with Brent effing Barry at NINETY EFFING THREE!
What that means is that somehow Barry was 14 points or whatever better than Tim Duncan. Unless Barry hit 10 threes including a game winner, he should NEVER be a higher ranked player than Duncan, especially not when Timmy goes for 29 on 10 of 16. I don't care that he only got 6 boards; I can live with our PF and C grabbing 17 boards combined, regardless of who gets them.
I also don't agree with all the criticism of Pop, but I'm probably the only Spurs fan in the world who doesn't want his head on a platter after seeing Finley, Bowen, Horry, Vaughn and Oberto on the floor to start the fourth. It raised an eyebrow, but based on the fact that those five were actually playing kinda well together, and the fact that Pop (along with many many many other coaches) ALMOST ALWAYS starts the fourth with the same group that came off the floor at the end of the third, I don't think it was a bad decision.
Certainly didn't cost us the game or whatever some of you are saying.
What cost us the game was hot Mav shooting in the first half, Manu's injury, and Parker's no-show. Take any of those three away, and it's a win from the good guys. And none of those three have ANYTHING to do with Pop or his coaching decisions.
The players aren't graded against each other.
Well, are they graded based on some absolute objective standard, or just based on their own individual potential? It seems as if it MUST be the latter, since if you're using the same criteria for grading each player's performance, Tim's at about 93 and Barry's at about 79.
Correct.It seems as if it MUST be the latter
If I graded everyone based off Tim Duncan, other players would be lucky to score a 10.
You graded Beno for one ing minute of playing time?
Let´s see if you will be consistant with one minute judges in the future (for all players).
PS I know why you graded Beno this time, but maybe if given time in 3rd and 4th quarter he could bail himself out?
Maybe.
But he screwed up again tonight against the Sonics. So probably not.
Pop's not that forgiving ingame.
Pop can win a WNBA game against the silver stars
I could win a game against the Silver Stars, single-handedly one-on-five, with just a re ed crippled kid on my baseline to pass the ball in to me. Someone should actually set this up as a promotional event for charity or something...they'd probably get more fans in the seats to watch that than any basketball game involving only girls.
I dont understand why every mavs spurs game is destined to end with dirk shooting free throws. The games are not even worth watching anymore.
BTW---people who get to watch the games---WTF is wrong with my homie Parker???
Because the Spurs insist on spotting the Mavericks a 20 point first half lead.
