Popovich was shouting to his players and it seems they couldn't hear him...but come on man, you are a pro, you have to know that you have to do the foul, you don't need your coach to tell you that...

Yeah Derozen is such an effective and winning player. I would much rather lose with a player like Derozen who would make me want to drink myself into a coma :crazy:


WTF are you even talking about?? All I said is I would rather have DD not take bad 3s (because he obviously can't make them) than do what WB does and chuck them up anyways and not make any of them :crazy:

I don't know what that last play was about. When your coach is yelling to foul and you run out the clock, well, that's game. But when every play counts, there were too many poor plays by us to overcome.

Congrats and good luck to the Nuggets.

No foul was as bad a coach job as coach K not surrounding RJ and Zion with Shooters....

Honestly looked like pop didn’t tell Aldridge to foul. He was telling Mills to play up. I think the whole team lost track of time and possibly not knowing they were down by 2 possessions with a timeout in hand. So bizarre

I'm not sure exactly what happened but it was looking like Pop was motioning for Aldridge to foul. As a professional basketball player you've gotta have better awareness than Aldridge there. Like you don't need your coach to yell at you like that to know to foul.

I feel cheated out of a potentially more wild finish. How do you NOT foul down 2 possessions? No coach should have to get on his players to foul in that situation.

Did POP yell foul?

Should pop have to yell foul?

Are the spurs professional basketball players?

That was basically the Spurs season in a nutshell. Glad this season is finally over.

Honestly I think they were all in a coma after Derozan got his layup smacked off the backboard.
2019 Eastern Conference All Stars

Derozan
Lowry
Ibaka
Valanciunas
Van Vleet
Delon Wright
Lebron
Embiid

There are only 2 teams in the league that rank in the top 6 in offensive and defensive efficiency: the Golden State Warriors and the Toronto Raptors.

You won't answer it. Because the answer is no.
I clearly answered it in my other post saying YES. Get a clue.

Didnt see the yes. My bad.

As long as you know there's no actual argument for it.

That ending is on Pop. I feel like he pulled a JR smith and thought they were down 2 or 3. Absolutely no excuse or reason to not foul with a 3 second shot clock/game clock differential when you are behind by 4
