Strange start to NBA season all around, but as long as we keep things close until Kawhi gets back I think we will be fine. I won't lie though, his injury is starting to make me nervous. GSG!

God forbid someone has a different opinion. Just ignore his political views. He's entitled to think what he wants. Doesn't make him less of a human.
And Pop is at least someone who is thoughtful and informed. It isn't like he is angry about Chainsaw AR-attachments.Obi Wan Ginobili said:hammerhead said:

Third best record in the west without Kawhi. I'll take it.
We went to the game on Saturday. It was my son's birthday and he had never been to a Spurs game. A blowout win is pretty cool for the first game. We got to see everybody play and the loud Bulls fan that sat behind us just slowly faded away as the game wore on. It was an awesome night. GoSpursGo

The San Antonio Spurs have had to survive without Kawhi Leonard this season, but head coach Gregg Popovich believes he will return to the court before long.
"He's gonna be back sooner rather than later," Popovich said Tuesday, per Tom Orsborn of the San Antonio Express-News.
Spurs undefeated when Lauvergne plays.
Finally won a close one on the road

I think you meant they are undefeated despite when Lauvergne plays.
I'm not a fan.
Well we haven't seen him much. But in the two games at the start of the year he showed something IMO. Very tough rebounder and decent touch from short range.Obi Wan Ginobili said:Ag Natural said:

He's got lots of energy, which is a welcome site after watching Gasol wheeze his way up and down the court, but what I saw was a low-IQ big body who committed stupid fouls. Last night I saw a grown ass man get boxed out three times by Wesley Mathews, who is 6 inches shorter than him.Ag Natural said:Well we haven't seen him much.

HTH.
I've always liked the Spurs, but Pop needs to stick to basketball and basketball alone.hammerhead said:

The Ags are undefeated when Connor McQueen takes a snap as QB! Whoop!!!
When did we lose the ability to disagree about something? Why does it bother you so much that someone has a different opinion? When did America become so fragile that we can't even allow someone to speak their mind? In an interview the other day Pop said he gets lots of mail about his political opinions and he replies to all of them, whether for or against.Ag12thman said:I've always liked the Spurs, but Pop needs to stick to basketball and basketball alone.hammerhead said:

THIS X a million...I don't always agree with Pop, but that doesn't mean I have to shout down everything he says. People have different view points in this country, that will never change. If we treat one another with respect and have honest discourse then the country would be a lot less on edge about every little perceived slight.jteagle said:When did we lose the ability to disagree about something?

Exactly! That's why a lot of us are wondering why pop always feels like he needs to shout down our beliefs.
I never said it bothered me that he has a different opinion. It bothers me that he's using his platform as an NBA head coach to talk politics. I can get that from Fox News or CNN anytime I want.jteagle said:When did we lose the ability to disagree about something? Why does it bother you so much that someone has a different opinion?

Please show one example of Pop shouting down anyone's beliefs. Probably the most controversial opinion he has stated is that Trump didn't exhibit the qualities he thought our President should exhibit. He also said he hoped Trump would improve.CactusThomas said:Malcolm52 said:

Other than that all his discourse has been on how to fix the social ills we experience in this country. It's not political at all other than calling for politicians to talk about these issues.
15 points in the first quarter. Even without Kawhi that's pitiful.
I'm catching up on DVR still but Manu is having a tough night. There's no offense and he's trying to force it, but OKC is doing a good job swarming on the strong side without giving up the skip pass.
It was a tough start but they hung in there and got the win. Played much better defense in the 2nd half and they made the play that they had to to get the win.
I'm ready to have Parker back. Patty just isn't cutting it. He's shooting a career low.
I never thought I would say this, but SlowMo is playing outstanding basketball. I think he's finally solidified a role on this team. When Kawhi is back, our bench is going to be scary good.
Danny Green is playing great basketball.
Have to rebound better than this.

Danny and Kyle are my two biggest surprises from last season to this season.
There's also something just so satisfying about Westbrook chucking up feeble last shots to lose to the Spurs.
Take it for what it's worth.
Quote:
Although Spurs superstar Kawhi Leonard has been relatively nonexistent as he rehabs his right quadriceps tendinopathy, one medical expert says fans should be "cautiously optimistic" that "The Klaw" could return sooner rather than later.
Express-News staff writer Tom Orsborn spoke with Sabrina Strickland, an orthopedic sports surgeon at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City about Leonard's return.
"I think he's going to be fine if they are truly saying what is wrong with him," said Strickland. "Usually, it's just a matter of doing the appropriate type of treatment to get better tissue in that area."
From up 17 in 1st to down 28 to start 4th... Wow, Spurs.
So, this isn't going well. Pelicans have outscored the Spurs 68-30 since the end of the first quarter.
The 2nd and 3rd quarters..
