    Whoa, I didn't know we had people that can see into the future on the forums.

    Can you let me know the powerball numbers for Saturday's drawing?

    Thanks in advance.

    This is not exactly a surprise. Veteran players do this all the time when they go to a new team. Especially to a team who has won multiple championships. It's harder when you start with a team and younger players pass you by. Just like with any company in any industry, egos are bruised when newer employees get promotions over employee with more experience.

    It also happens all the time when we want know certain starters would be better if they came off the bench. They often pout on one team, but have no problem with it after getting traded 1 or 2 times.

    Winning cures everything. LaMarcus was never the leader but the team wasn't winning like they are new so it was easier for his jealousy or whining to come to the surface. Plus, he is on a team with his hero from his high school and college years so he has fit in to the 'little brother' role. It doesn't hurt that Pop is the coach either.

    LaMarcus will coattail his way to the WCF and maybe even a title but it will be because of Kawhi, Parker, Duncan and Ginobili and he was a nice stat filler along the way.

    We all knew LaMarCooch was going to do all the things for Popovich he wouldn't do here. That's what really stings.

    Forward/Centers will be Kobe/Leonard/Durant + DMC/Davis/Griffin/Green

    Guards will be Curry/Westbrook + CP3/Harden/(Klay or Dame)

    LA will not make the team.

    I think it's also on Stotts. Playing team defense and being a team player are the things he couldn't do for us and maybe would have done if Popovich was our coach

    I don't think he will. This will be "the year of the warrior."

    Nah, LMA isn't even Robin - he's Cat Woman at best. Robin is Duncan, Alfred is Parker...Diaw is the utility belt.

    I don't really pay attention to him or the Spurs at all, but I still want to see them go down in the first round. Half of the team and coach would retire if that happens.

    He would have been perfect for the baby role Dame did in that commercial throwing his food off the stroller

    That's because he was going to leave two years ago.
