It’s weird that the retirement of a 40 year old power forward who averaged 8 points and 7 rebounds last season has made this team quite a bit less formidable. The Spurs are gong to do their thing and win 55-60 games but I just don’t fear them in a playoff series the way I used to.

Firing back shade with a tweet at 2 AM is always an L. Always.

Yeah but Pop, who makes personnel decisions, has managed to keep the team at a top level for nearly 20 years despite losing 2 of the best players of all time and several other key contributors.

I agree, although I have also only really followed basketball since like 2008 or so, so I only know him for his “triangle still works basketball never evolves and even if it does triangle still works because I am awesome and recently ingested burning coals to make my voice sound this way” troll phase. Still, when you…

did you really think that this was an unpopular opinion?

Come at you? Most of us are with you. Pop is better. In pretty much every category but having a rich girlfriend.

The Spurs are weird this year. They have a great team. The thing is...they’re just not as good as they’ve been the past few years.

I don’t think a plumber needs a pep talk.

You’re not at all wrong.

Pop > Phil

Tim Duncan has offered to help by writing a sternly worded note to the Spurs on the dangers of lollygagging.

Tim Duncan has been pretty much non-existent for the Spurs this season, and they are still 18-5.

“We’re gonna penalize that shit.”
*thinks*
“We’re gonna profit off that shit.”

It’s almost like the NFL is full of shit.

That’s pretty shameless even for the no fun league. Christ.

That actually earned the social media team a $15,000 fine for criticizing the refs.

And here’s the NFL, publicizing the unsportsmanlike conduct!

Then go home. In fact, don’t come.

Sounds like the post’s author had a bad night and needs to convince himself about his new “plan” by getting preachy.

You’re such an asshole.
