I dont understand Popovich

[robert_shaww]

Ginobili only playing 14 minutes the last 3 games...wtf...spurs almost lost the 3 games (if it wasnt for jordan tip it was 3 out of 3 and 2 of them in san antonio).

i cant understand it.

manu was ALL his carrer cluth in this moments, playing the last 6 minutes in the 4th quarter...green cant buy a basket...and manu is on the bench the last 6 minutes of games 4,5,6. spurs struggled BIG in the last minutes of game 4....spurs up by 10 in the last minutes of game 5 (clippers could have won) and the same last night in game 6...the offense is no there without Ginobili.

Parker and Green cant do it..put mills and ginobili there......or at least just ginobili....he is just no playing in this series (in game 5 he played 19min with 14 points)

cant believe it really, Manu last game as a Spur this saturday.

(thanks for everything Manu, of course)

Ginobili hasnt done much when hes been in there this series.

Tbh theyre best off just playing mills and green most of the minutes. But Pop too loyal to the spurs legends :oldlol:

in Pop's defense, whether it be his own fault or not, not much he can turn to from the bench tbh.

their impact players are Kawhi, TD and Parker (in that order). Kawhi and TD hold their own, Parker is hit or miss now as is Manu. Green has been garbage from downtown for the most part so Pop is pretty limited in who he can really throw out there to service them the win.

Patty is streaky to me...I cant rmbr if it was game 5 or 6 but he only put up 2 shots, so to say he is someone Pop can rely on is not gonna float either.

I'm surprised to hear this. I thought most people generally accept that Manu has been poor this series. Parker, more so, has been a major disappointment. On to game 7!

This. At least take out Parker for Manu who will at least get the ball movement going even if he turns it over alot.

[StrongLurk]

Mills and Bellinelli have been amazing as role players so far. They have been the best role players out of every team in the playoffs.

[BlakFrankWhite]

First thing they need to do in offseason is get rid of Parker.

Awful this season.....at this point I'd take MCW over him..lol

[lilandywiggins]

Ginobili and Parker are done. Scary to think that Duncan outlasted them.

[T_L_P]

Dude seriously played the 'Soft' card after last game. :oldlol:

That ***** is playing the worst player in the NBA just because of his name. :oldlol:

Pop has fcked up big time this series. Say what you want about Phil's rosters, but he'd never over-think himself into despair. You go with your best players. Right now that's anyone but Parker and Splitter.

And yet...

lol what happened to your full greens?

[sp6r=underrated]

My biggest issue with Pop and minutes played this series has been the overuse of Parker and the underuse of Joseph. Joseph actually outplayed Parker over the RS while logging significant minutes. He is a much better defender. His lack of an outside shot is troubling but Parker isn't much better. In fact Parker's outside shooting this series has been Rondo level bad.

A backcourt of Green and Mills doesn't work well due to ball handling. Joseph/Green and Manu/Mills work well. Parker shouldn't be playing 30 mpg based on his RS play and PS play. I understand giving him the start but you cannot continually give a player 30 mpg in the PS when he was awful throughout the RS and has played historically bad in the PS.

Popovich is maybe the GOAT coach but like everyone else he can be criticized. Playing Parker this much is unjustified even if he had a HOF career.

[Spurs m8]

This is the worst thread i've ever seen, its 2015, OP, get with the times, Manu is ****ing horrible and horrible in the clutch.

Go away

Whatever, you had a Clippers 4-0 and now you have Clippers in 7.

Maybe the Clippers are just good? :confusedshrug:

[inclinerator]

i don't understand how you can keep misspelling career

[T_L_P]

Maybe the Clippers are just good? :confusedshrug:

Oh, they totally are. I think CP3 is incredible and Blake has done a great job this series.

But Tony Parker and Tiago should not be getting this much burn. We need to run Mills/Marco/Kawhi/Diaw/Duncan til the wheels fall off tomorrow. That's our best lineup and it killed yesterday. Sure, Paul is gonna destroy (Mills is hardly a good defender and Kawhi looks lost when defending him also), but we need that offense. Parker, Green and Splitter are overwhelming negatives on offense this series, and the lack of shooting clogs the paint which makes Duncan virtually ineffective. :confusedshrug:

[thefatmiral]

playing Parker is the problem. manu isn't playing that well. neither is green but he's a better defender.

[clipps]

That can't be it. They are the Clippers.

[jimmybball]

BOLD PREDICTION: Parker has a good game 7.
