Let's pretend this never happened. I can get on board with the shorts though.

Engelland, 61, left the Spurs after the sides couldn't agree on a new contract, sources said. He has long been one of the league's highest-paid assistant coaches.

There was a report a few weeks ago (maybe linked in this thread, not sure) that Chip was leaving at the end of his current contract. I assumed he had more time on it and he'd be here at least one more season.

Maybe this is a tiny signal (since he and the Spurs couldn't agree on long term) that its definitely Pop's last year? I know there's been a ton of speculation regarding who comes after Pop and we've always assumed it's going to be someone coming back (Snyder, Bud, Becky, Messina, etc) but maybe they aren't committed to a Pop disciple? Seems any of the formers coming back would be just fine with Chip.

Ah good, letting a division rival poach your shooting coach. This should end well.

I'm sure ownership doesn't want to spend money if we are just tanking. Don't really blame them.

Seeing as how player development is a major key to the future, I sure hope there is a suitable replacement. I wonder who's been working with Keldon.

I trust PATFO to either bring in or promote a suitable replacement. OKC must've offered him a ton of money and it wouldn't shock me if Chip wanted to see out his contract since he's been with the organization for so long.

1. That was a dirty sequence of fakes by DJ.

2. Dejounte takes pro-ams waaaay too seriously.

Gotta up our tanking game since Holmgren got hurt.

Also, this guy looks like he should be in the cast of "What We Do in the Shadows."

Mitchell?

Mitchell is a better scorer (26ppg/57% TS vs 21ppg/53% TS) but Murray is bigger, a better defender, better passer, and significantly better defender. DeJounte's Box+/- was 25% higher than Mitchell's, despite being on a much worse team.

Despite more time handling the ball, Murray had a lower turnover rate than Mitchell.

Plus Murray has a significantly better contract for the team.
