reed doesnt seem to give a shit about anything other than his viewing pleasure. guys dont base their health, careers, teams best strategies on whether or not it will affect reed enjoying a televised nba game.
While this shit maybe just a game to Reed, this shit is Players, coaches, owners, etc. Careers. This is a business. And pop would be my fucking CEO any day of the week.
All REED Knows is, David Stern has CHASTISED Popovich for this Shit...Looks like the New Commishs/Principal Needs to Call Pop to his Office... REED GETS it w/Duncan & Ginobili...But Sitting Tony Parker for like 2 weeks, when he WASN'T Even Hurt & WANTED to Play???...Fuck That...The NBA is a PRODUCT & Popovich Repeatedly SHITS on the FANS of the Big Name Players he Rests, just to Be a Fucking ASSHOLE... REED:shit:
That's not why. It's the rest them. that team is old man. They need all the rest they can take. David Stern dont care if Spurs win a ring. Pop's bosses do.
Tony Parker Is NOT Old, Sorry...No Need to Sit an UNINJURED 31 Year Old, BELOW THE RIM PG on the Shelf for 2 Fucking Weeks... Great, GREAT Coach, but Pop is UNDOUBTEDLY an Asshole...Just Peep his btwn Quarters or Post-Game Interviews... REED:boohoo:
you cant be serious. the main reason they lost the finals last year was because parker was not 100% in the finals. the guy is OLD. 13 or 14th year in the league, pretty much every year they go deep into the playoffs, plus he plays international ball. resting him is the wise move. if the spurs fans dont like it then they are fucking spoiled idiots.
They COULD Have, but Pop DIDN'T Play Parker to Start the 4th and the Game Got AWAY from Them... REED's Seen Other Instances where the Spurs Fall Behind Early, like 15-18 or So & Pop Not Only BENCHED Parker, Duncan & Ginobili in the Middle of the 2nd Qtr, but for the REMAINDER of that Game... REED:shit:
the momentum shifted while parker was still in the game in the third quarter. OKC had too much energy. it was over at that point as i mentioned.
He's a bit surly but he's actually somewhat approachable when he's not coaching. He doesn't like the stupid, cliche questions asked ad nauseum every single game and prefers to answer things that actually require a thought process to answer. He likes to give insight but not answer questions like "What happened in the 3rd quarter!?!!" http://blog.mysanantonio.com/spursnation/2014/03/04/pop-talks-offense-a-qa/
Anyway the Spurs were playing their 5th game in 7 days and the Spurs should have number 1 locked up. This game was somewhat meaningless and it's no surprise Pop threw it.
Parker HASN'T Done Any "Heavy Lifting" on the French Team for SEVERAL Years Now...He's More of a FIGUREHEAD Participant than Anything Else... REED:mj:
He competed in Eurobasket and the Olympics in consecutive years and it's extremely likely he'll be playing in the World Cup this Summer. He's played in all of the big events
4-0 for the Thunder this season. Make of that what you will. I heard a pretty amazing stat today, during the Spurs win streak the top scorer was Parker with just 15 a game, and the minutes leader was Leonard, who played just over 30 mins.
calderon is busting the clipper ass. the guy is one of the more efficient PGs in the league offensively.
As I said before, Thunder vs Heat in the finals. Spurs won't be able to handle the Thunder in a 7 game series. They simply can't cope with the combined firepower of KD and WB. And the Pacers will choke vs the Heat.
