You should be worried about the Spurs because they dicked Houston by 40 and bounced them out the playoffs.

Morey disprespected the spurs in front the whole country and said we are worried about beating GSW. We ain’t worried one iota about spurs.


Duh. That's why I said SA has not been relevant earlier in this very thread. Pay attention, son.

Thats a true statement. I only have to pay taxes. I think we finally got rid of the Obamacare mandate that forces me to purchase health insurance. If that’s not official then I have to do two things. Listening to and agreeing with Greg Popovich is not something I have to do.
Exactly so why complain? I don't like Ted Nugent, so you don't see me complaining about his hunting show. I don't like Fox News so you don't see me complaining about their on screen talent. I don't like shitty fast food and you don't see me complaining about it.

I think it is crazy that some of you complain about someone else's view point in sports yet you still consume said sports entertainment.

Spurs are gonna lose to a Portland Denver kinda team in round one. Won’t even win a WCF game for a decade when we 10 years out from their last title. They are done Zo.

Not really relevant at this juncture. They're 15-20 points better than us if we aren't fully healthy. I don't know how much a fully healthy Spurs team closes that gap. No one does. We've only had 1 game with a fully healthy roster.

Would love to see how we actually matchup. But we don't know if we'll ever get to see that this year because fricking Pop won't tell us whether Kawhi is actually shut down for the year or not. But he can yammer about Trump, blee dat

Every season people say “Spurs are old, they are done” blah blah blah. This has been going on for years now, and they still contend in the Western Conference. Houston is a stacked team, probably the only threat to the Warriors, but i would not bet on them in a 7 game series against Pop

They don’t contend. they have not won a game in the WCf in 4 years. Quit living in the past.

No, but I did spend 4 weeks in the country. So I have first hand experience if that counts for anything.

Interesting that Asians, Jews, Indians and Hispanics don’t seem to be having any issues climbing the economic ladder in this country. Why is that, Pop?


Well said. Not much to add

If he feels the USA is so racists he needs to do everyone a favor. He would go a long ways on making things right by committing suicide to eliminate at least one white person.

So are you basically making the generalization that blacks (as a whole) don’t have the willpower to climb the economic ladder in America?

I think all first world nations have their issues when it comes to diversity of some sort. With the being said, when ever this topic pops up. The “well if you don’t like it in America. Then leave” mob seems to be the most vocal. Which really doesn’t further the discussion at all.

I also I don’t get the crowd that brings up Pops service record as some sort of token in this argument (see 1 pg of this thread)

The most surprising thing in this thread to me is that people think Serbians are Jewish.

I swear that USA Basketball needs to pull the plug on him. This is twice he’s gone off the rails that I can recall.

I’d love to see how the players would react if they replaced Pop with Doc, Ewing, or Smart?
