MC KAos;1996755 said:its not like they are trying to lose the game, but at the same time pop knows the team and knows how old they are and is trying to limit the minutes right now, we are playing 7 games in 10 days and he is being very careful with everyone's minutes. Im not making excuses for us losing but there are adjustments pop makes in the playoffs that he wont be making right now because he is more concerned with minutes.
all im trying to say is that pop isnt letting the players that are actually hitting shots play long minutes because he is controlling their minutes and thats part of the reason they are losing, along with the fact that the offense stinks right now. its a tough stretch but well be ok, there are no back to backs or 7 games in 10 days in the playoffs
there are a lot of spurs fans that are freaking out about it and are cursing pop to the high seas because of the conservative way he is coaching right now. But rather than get all caught up in that im just gonna trust in him since i find myself saying "i guess pop knew what he was doing all along" so many times by the end of the year. It sucks to loose 3 out of 4 but im not gonna freak out about just yet.
I understand your point about looking at the upcoming horizon that is the post season. However they played over 30 minutes in that game (starters). Of course all that is really pointless right now except for court advantages.
