    God, the 10 year-old nephews are truly insufferable to the point that they need a Youtuber to tell them to chill on Pop.

    Nothing against A.M. Hoops, but I got 5 reasons to let Pop cook.

      Yes, if anyone disagrees with you they MUST be 10 years old.

      Sochan is not a point guard, pops wrong. Hop off the sack and admit it.

    The thing that really frustrates me with the fan base right now as well as the sub. It’s people not being willing to at least try to understand some of the things pop is doing before they bash him, call him senile, call him overrated, and demand his head

    I’m a pop truther and I’ve been frustrated myself with some of the things that have occurred to start the year. But with a sample size this small, in the early parts of a rebuild, you don’t have to agree with what pop is doing. You don’t have to think it’s the right way. You have to simply try to understand and acknowledge the logic behind it. The reasons for what he’s doing. And there are plenty of reasons

    And plenty of people have no interest in trying to do that. They would much rather be hyperbolic and angry. Pop has a sense of logic behind every decision that people have deemed wrong so far. How about we wait until we have a proper sample size, and opportunities for him to make adjustments as well, in a year that was always going to be about development and furthering the rebuild, before getting so up in our feelings?

      There is serious age-ism these days. Just say anything negative and add Boomer to it, and the webz loves it.

      The notion of experience is dissolving in a world where the result of the previous second determines the next 100 years.

    Some of these people are starting to remind me of Lakers fans. There’s a sense of unearned entitlement and expectation that everything should be done their way and if things aren’t all smiles and rainbows, they’re ready to blow everything up.

    This was always going to be a rebuilding year. The team wants to win, but they want to build something sustainable. The Rockets are paying two role players roughly $63M a year for the next 4 years. Is that a sustainable strategy for a small market like the Spurs? Probably not. Building out the skillset of all of their young players is a priority for this team. Not just one.

    Pop’s been at this since the gap between Jordan’s titles. Why do so many people with so little knowledge game think they know the game better?
