Spurs vs Heat on TNT tonight. Pop being Pop... sends his starters home for some rest. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nba-b...tony-parker-manu-ginobili-222016650--nba.html
He will become the All-Time Baller when he shuts down that wanna-be-pimp dressin' ass clown Craig Sager when he asks him why he did it after the first quarter interview!
To me, it's a travesty if coaches sit players for no apparent reason. I feel bad for those who have paid good money to watch "real" pros play real pros. In other words, wouldn't it be awesome if you paid high dollars to watch one of your favorite bands in concert.....only to ultimately discover, the night they were to play in your town, a few of the top band members took the night off to rest their vocal chords? Rock on!
The idea that playing a game off and on for 30 minutes 2- 4 times a week is "hard" on healthy, non-injured "professional athletes" is the epitome of ridiculous. Apparently the Spurs can't afford a halfway decent trainer, and also have no respect for their own fans. Probably time for Pops to hang it up. He's lost whatever competitive fire he once had.
There used to be an injured list. People made up injuries but if you put someone on the injured list, they had to stay there for five games. Maybe they should go back to that? I just didn't like the lying.
You mean, like when you go to the theatre and they announce before the show that the understudy is playing the lead tonight? You don't get your money back for that.
Spurs could win this! Not like when Pop did this last season and the Blazers just annihilated them. I think that was our last good game.
