That blows.
Draft was pretty bad. After Luka, Clarke is probably the only person worth playing.rg4atm01 said:
Brandon Clarke was available and would have added so much athleticism at a 4 right now.

Yup. Those were my thoughts as well. He would have been better off playing in Europe instead being thrown in the fire here at 19 years old. And he's not the tough-minded 19 year old (TP) which is fine. But better for him to build his confidence and develop overseas before coming over here. He's a pretty timid player to begin with, but I think coming here early killed any chance of a long term NBA career, if he would have had one to begin with.
I didn't understand the game against Utah at all. We seemed determined to pass up open 3s in order to get into the paint against their best defensive player. I love being aggressive but sometime that's just not smart. Defensively I think Pop got sick of us being carved up in the pick and roll so he went zone the whole second half. Utah was leisurely stroking 3s all night.Ulrich said:
Watched my first spurs game in the last year or so. I for one think our strategy of letting the opposing team tire out their arms with 35 consecutive open threes will pay dividends in a 7-game series.
Also really loving that we've doubled down on building our offense around 8-17 foot runners and pull ups, those definitely won't dry up at the end of games and in the playoffs when legs are tired and defensive intensity ratchets up.
Keldon Johnson looks really good, although the lane is going to get really crowded for him if we don't figure out how to make threes. We really need a point guard.
We've clearly got the bodies to play good defense, but our rotations and anticipation have a long way to go.
I would ship LaMarcus, Gay and Patty tomorrow if we got good value back.Enzo The Baker said:
Give it a couple of more weeks to see what the Spurs can do. If it doesn't look like we have a chance in the standings, play our young guys, ship out our vets and get a top pick. Less margin for error in this 72 game season.

Hey Patty, thanks for not playing like **** so far. LaMarcus and Rudy, thanks for not playing like **** in past years.
Mills could be a low first if he is still shooting the way he is. A PG with championship experience and is a great locker room guy that can light it up is pretty valuable for a team that could make a run. And teams that could make a run are bottom five picks anyway. You know, where Parker and Keldon came from.Enzo The Baker said:Guitarsoup said:I would ship LaMarcus, Gay and Patty tomorrow if we got good value back.Enzo The Baker said:

Given their salary, I think Gay and Mills are probably our best trade assets. Unfortunately I don't think they are good enough for a 1st rounder.

I could see a team like New Orleans wanting him since Bledsoe and Lonzo cant shoot, Or philly for the same reason plus money ball
