Countdown to Walton.
Countdown to Walton.
countdown to another "This loss is on Pop" thread.
He sure didn't help with the T.
Tpark, get off it.
The team played like tonight. Popovich thinking that we just had to run 4down one more time (it's a new play, it takes the guys time ya know) before it'd start working made it even worse.
The only guy who was on tonight was Parker. He got what, two shots in the fourth quarter tonight, maybe three touches? How many did captain 6-18 TD get?
Spare me the "Pop never s up" holier than thou bull , and answer me why your daddy Pop feels that a guy needs more touches down the stretch when he's 6-18 on the night and the entirety of the opposing defense is geared on shutting said individual down.
I don't care if we go down in flames, I just want to see Pop unleash the reigns on the offense, instead of pulling back so hard in tight games that they choke on 4down.
with stuff like this, who would doubt he goes to A&M showing such intelligence.your daddy Pop
Well, next time you show any intelligence on this board, let me know, it'll be the first.
Jesus Christ TPark, take out that comment then, address the rest of the post. You can't, because one you don't know about basketball, and two you won't ever admit Pop s up, unless it's something mundane and obvious like taking out Rasho when he's having a good game, or wondering why Barry gets pulled when he's got four threes on the night.
Basketball's a lot deeper than riding the hot hand, and for some weird ass reason you enjoy watching Pop ride Duncan's cold hand on nights like tonight.
If Parker, Manu, Barry, or everyone's favorite whipping boy was 6-18 on the night and Pop continuously fed them the ball, you'd be going ape , but Pop does it and he's a good coach.
With logic like that, I can't help but think you're related.
Pop can't coach in Houston. He didn't rest Parker early enough in the second half so that by the time the fourth quarter came, Parker had to rest too much. He had Barry out there who, other than his three, was a waste. His brother schooled his azz. Beno played too long when he couldn't hit a jumper. The bigman rotation didn't make any sense. And to top it off, the technical was just stupid.
I think Horry is hurt. Malik wouldn't have seen the floor otherwise.
wittle tough to shoot from the bench.Manu,
The TEAM, shot 32%.
the TEAM.
If Pop had a hand in that, please show me how.
Barry out there who, other than his three
Now now, Aggie will chastise you for critisizing his best buddy Barry.
Barry played scared.
His brother wanted the win.
The whole le of this post is about how he had a hand in it, are you that dense?If Pop had a hand in that, please show me how.
For quarters 2-4, other than Tony's third quarter spurt, we ran 4down almost exclusively, and every single time it was run from the right low block.
The entire Houston defense was geared to stop that set, and they brought a different look and the double from a different spot every time down, and kicked our asses. We shot 32% exactly because we ran the same set and ran it into the teeth of the opponent's defense every damn time.
Just once, ONCE, I'd like to see you admit that maybe we should do something different on offense. But I guess you enjoyed watching LA embarrass us three times. I guess you enjoy losses like tonight where we couldn't break 100 if we played 100 minutes of basketball, all because of your poppa Pop thinking 4down is the greatest set in the history of mankind because it won us a le 6 years ago.
Yes, cause, every game, every night, thats all they run.Just once, ONCE, I'd like to see you admit that maybe we should do something different on offense
Amazing, you werent here after the Dallas win, to praise Pop's offense.
But, your here tonight to critisize the Offense on a loss.
Amazingly consistent.
Barry played scared again?? What a suprise.
Yes, I'm consistent. So are the Spurs when Tim goes 6-18. Too much 4down.
Sorry I wasn't here for the Dallas game, I had other priorities (you know, a life and all).
TPark, this conversation isn't about the Dallas game, it is about the game tonight. Did you even watch, or just log on to defend dear old dad?
Barry played scared? So what. So did Duncan, Pop still gave him the ball on every poessession of the fourth quarter but three.
"after the Dallas win"
The Dallas win was ugly as . Spurs blew a late big lead, let DAL get back in, DAL scores 29 pts in 4th qtr. Spurs win by the skin of their teeth.
So what
lol, sorry to critisize your man barry.
Man you guys must be related you defend him all the time.
It would figure. I guess you're whipped on the 4down argument, so you've gotta piggyback on timvp's take on Barry tonight to try and find an argument to win.
Who's defending him? He had the second best shooting night on the Spurs tonight. If you're gonna rake him over the coals, where's the criticism for Duncan, or for Pop putting Tim in the same position to fail all night long?
Where is the critique for the TEAM shooting bad as well.
???
TPark should make his paper worth a damn before he runs his fat mark mouth again.
If we were running the motion, or running any plays for other players, I'd criticize them more heavily for their shooting.
4down, when run extensively, has made every Spur playing within it look like for five years running, why would it change now? It's so easy to defend, not only to make life for Duncan but to zone the rest of his teammates so that the defenders are only a step, maybe two at most, away from defending any other shots.
In short, it's the playbook, stupid.
of course.If we were running the motion, or running any plays for other players, I'd criticize them more heavily for their shooting.
The players missing wide open shots are not there fault.
How silly of us to think opposite of that.
Thanks for talking down to us some more.
TPark should make his paper worth a damn before he runs his fat mark mouth again
hmm, nice.
Very intelligent post there.
I see Spursfan is back.
Add another name to the ignore list.
You haven't brought any thoughts on this one, just that anyone who criticizes anything about this team, especially it's coach, is wrong. But you are always right. Just like Pop. Things don't work out, make a few trades, waive a few guys, spread some stories about how they were locker room cancers, and go find some new guys to run the same offensive sets with the same results.How silly of us to think opposite of that.
Jesus H. Christ Tpark,
You don't get it. Or don't want to admit it. Either way, just shut up.
Oh no Mr. Big Man has spoken. Such a big time player but has to be forced to cough up a five spot. Perhaps you and Duff McCartney can arm wrestle for the le of the forum's worst freeloader.
