    They didn't listen to Pop. Spurs players folded tent too early. You could see Pop urge his players to move up, no one listened. Retirement soon?!?!?!?

    Boys, Blazers vs Denver again.

    Denver has 3 Home games in a row. (plus the Spurs game)

    I don't understand why Spurs didn't foul. Anyway, Nuggets - Blazers would be a more interesting matchup.

    LMA was like 'nah'

    Surprised he couldn't hear Pop - he was that far onto the court

    There was a Spurs player that was clearly looking at Pop when Pop told them to foul. But that one player didn't do it.

    Kinda weird. And Pop was like, "welp. Screw it."

    Feel bad for the Spurs. You see Kawhi have a 45 point night in their game 1 win against Philly, and Derozan puts up a stinker in an elimination game.

    Pops is inside the court begging his players to foul. LOL!

    If you're a coach can you run onto the court to get a tech to stop the clock?

    DeRozan and Lowry are allergic to the playoffs.

    No joke. You see how Raptors turn from choker to contender just by swapping Derozan and Leonard.

    Pop got rings from Duncan, Admiral, TParker, BBowens and Manure. Pop = Phil Jackson, players rewarded them rings.

    The Night King was too busy laying siege on Winterfell to give a damn about winning a game 7 tonight.

    Any team with DeMar as lead dog, ... You're going home early!

    Spurs should look to trade him. ;)
    Don't know who would want him, maybe a small market team that can't attract players can sell itself on a faux-all-star.

    2019-20: $27,739,975
    2020-21: $27,739,975 (Player Option)

    Spurs will get Dejounte back but not sure they're going anywhere fast either.

    Pop is cranky in his presser right now.

    Aldridge is GONE.

    Agreed. On paper they can still try to sign with cap room a good player this summer, but the core overall just doesn't look right, LMA is getting older and he was never a super efficient player tbh, Derozan welp...the rest of players are either old or young but with not great potential (aside for Murray), they don't have great assets...they should really rebuild, pretty sure that like you said some dumb teams would still trade something good for Derozan and LMA.
