Very good NBA starter
Re: Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu, Danny Green sent home won't play vs Heat
I'm with Stern on this although he should have been angry last year as well. Pop's actions are unacceptable and a slap in the face to:
- TNT who paid an outrageous sum to broadcast the game
- Advertisers who paid TNT to run ads tonight
- Fans eager for a great early-season matchup
- Customers who spent their hard-earned money to go to the game
Chuck might still salvage the entertainment value of this broadcast but I hope Stern brings the hammer down...

They get paid MASSIVELY more than I do.
If your boss told you to take the day off with pay you would take it.

Exactly. Stop this shit before it spreads around the league, and you see other teams doing this.

Miami Heat fans shouldn't be upset I can see 2kWade and VideoGameJames putting on an absolute circus show now that Pop decided to be a tard. James for 50?

Besides fining him (for not playing his players in a regular season game), I wonder what is he going to do? And Pop sat his players out or gave them days off lots of times before.

This. People are bitching just to be bitching. First the Spurs are boring, now everyone wants to see them play? Lol

Lol! Pop just trolled TNT real hard! Not that big of deal anyways, we're all gonna watch Saints vs Falcons!
Or maybe this is just is way of saying, "I know we can't beat the Heat, so we're gonna sit out this game and save us the embarrassment."

I went from planning to watch Thursday Night Football to watching this game because I'm excited to see Mills score big time as well as see guys like DeColo play!

Form a ****ing wall
Re: Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu, Danny Green sent home won't play vs Heat
His team, his choice.
Pop is not in this business to entertain, he's here to win.
One thing if it there was a big break in the schedule, but damn, I don't blame him for doing this.

Re: Tim Duncan, Tony Parker, Manu, Danny Green sent home won't play vs Heat
They can't fine the Spurs or Pop because they can say the players are injured.
I love how Pop chose a national televised game to do this.
LOL @ Stern's press release....sorry to the fans? Are these players in a zoo...are they a circus side show?
They are ball players who get tired and screw the Miami fans or any casual fans thinking that these guys need to entertain us.
