Well, between the injury &. Green defense, curry will not decide the series.comes down to spurs making shots.
Parker's being exploited on the defensive end, and is forced to expend too much energy there. I have confidence that Pop can re-shuffle the deck to improve the player matchups, but whether that means starting Ginobili at PG, I am not sure. It really may be the only card Pop's got to play, frankly.
Boy, oh boy, wouldn't it be nice to have a tough, gritty wing player right about now (somewhere, S Jackson is having a good laugh).
He'd be a nice upgrade from Gary Neal, but the price tag will be too high. Gar Neal made $970K this year, Jack will be looking for $6-$7M. Is he really 6-7 times better than Neal? No. Spend that money on some quality wings or bigs.
desparate times calls for desperate measures...
Obviously, Jack's referring to Kawhi, who was taking all his minutes.
If Jack was interfering with Kawhi's development in any way, then yes, he had to go. Kawhi is a vital piece to the future of the franchise.
Jack's toughness will be missed in the playoffs, but offensively, he'd been horrible all season. Less than 30% from 3, I believe?
@MarkCubanisaDouche @BlazingDeath Yup, but when Manu does it, it's just smart basketball, right?
It's silly to wonder if "OKC made the right decision" to deal Harden. They had no choice; they were actually very smart about it, saw the writing on the wall that they couldn't afford all 3 guys. Kudos to them, it's like they learned their stuff within a smart org like the Spurs. Hmmm, Sam Presti, name sounds kinda familiar...
D Blair is making $1 million this season playing a game. I think his agent needs to shut his trap.
I feel bad for Dejuan in the sense he could be getting a lot more playing time somewhere else.
Not that bad, though. did I mention he's making $1 million playing a game?
If they do acquire Smith, the only way he stays after this year would be if Manu walks or retires.
If the Spurs want to win this year, its a very good trade. Dollars work, too. However, unless the Spurs want to bring Smith back (he's a FA after this year), they leave themselves a very big hole at the center position long term.
Don't suppose Danny would do us a solid by taking Bonner & Blair instead of Splitter? :)
It really mystifies me how this guy remains relevant in any way shape or form. He never has anything insightful to say, and seems to just enjoy flapping his gums and being a grade-A idiot.
I have farts I enjoy more than this guy. Ignore him folks, that's the only way he'll just go away!
@JeffProjectSpurs @nikd Exactly what we used on him, a mid 2nd round pick.
Sounds like Baynes is our contingency plan, then. Give the FO credit, they;re always looking ahead!
Sure hope Splitter's back, though. He's really playing well.
Ha, I'd like an official measurement on those $5 beers - 'cause they certainly don't look like a full pint to me! Per oz, your best "deal" (I use that term loosely) is unfortunately the $10.25 32-oz "bombers"....
It's a joke. A major reason why I'd never even consider full season tix is the exorbitant cost of parking & beverages you have to factor in to the overall cost.
So, until they offer you a break if you go in for a season package, I'm content most nights kicking my feet up & watching my favorite team at home with my $1.25 Shiner!
@be_Spurs Exactly what I was thinking; article totally ignores what the Rockets may have to give up. Perhaps the Grizz want a 1st round pick. They still need a big guy in return , so Asik + 1st round pick perhaps? I don't think that's enough for the Grizz to part with Randolph. I agree, a shooter likely has to be involved.
Pop seems to insist on trying to turn guys into backup point guards, that do not have the tools for the position. Ever since Speedy Claxton, it's been a turnstile position for us. For example, I really wish he would stop using Manu in that role, particularly in the 2nd half of games. Manu is soooo much better playing off the ball. Let Nando or Patty handle the ball with the 2nd team...That being said, Gary is probably the most likely guard choice if the team does pull the trigger on a trade. I LOVE Gary the sharpshooting 2-guard...not a big fan of Gary the backup PG. And, Danny does seem to be a more rounded player & long-term choice at the 2...he needs to show more consistency before I'm a true believer in him, though. Can't we just clone Kawhi ?!?
I really dislike it when Pop rests healthy stars. It is a disservice to the fans in the seats who paid good $ to see those stars play. Let's face it folks, the NBA is as much about entertainment as it is sport these days.
That being said, Stern's a big fat douche, and it likely pisses him off more than anything, that there is nothing he can do about it; as a head coach, Pop's got complete control over who plays and who doesn't, unless the NBA is going to write it into the rulebook that players scoring such-and-such points a night must be played X minutes if healthy. I don't see that flying with any of the organizations in the league. That being said - eat it Stern!
@rtesoro440 Win, you moron.
Yes, your translation is quite horrible.
I really like Mills. I think he could be a solid backup PG for us. The only bad thing is, it stunts Cory Joseph's development to a degree - or, at least delays it while Mills is here. Hard to see if a guy's "gonna have it" when he's 3rd deep on the bench.
