Pop’s reply to the question of his future in San Antonio. I think it’s safe to say that everyone is bracing for the day when Gregg Popovich is no longer pacing the sidelines for the San Antonio Spurs. It’s something that’s going to happen sooner rather than later and, well, it’s sounding like there’s a chance that “sooner” might be …
Surely, but very, very slowly A lot has happened since the Spurs and Mavericks met the first time this season on October 29th. The Spurs have been both the worst team in basketball and the best at different points, while the Mavs have dealt with their own share of ups and downs. One thing that hasn’t changed, though, is the …
A much needed boost from #22 helped elevate the Spurs to a road win Back like he never left @RudyGay: 14 PTS | 4 REB pic.twitter.com/QKxB1ddXeH — San Antonio Spurs (@spurs) January 17, 2019 OKAY RUDY pic.twitter.com/p1j1m2KEPq — San Antonio Spurs (@spurs) January 17, 2019 Welcome back, Rudy! #GoSpursGo pic.twitter.com/Le2MyIaQko — San Antonio Spurs (@spurs) January 17, 2019 It was …
With the stars struggling, the bench did the heavy lifting to lead the Spurs to a valuable road victory. Well, that was fun. After looking lost for most of the first half, the Spurs pulled off a dramatic comeback against the Mavericks in the final two quarters to steal a much-needed win. The bench played a huge role in securing …
Much like the I-35 drive from San Antonio to Dallas, the Spurs started slow, kicked it into gear throughout the majority of the middle portion, only to slow back down in the final moments. Regardless of the ride that got them there, the Spurs reached their goal, defeating the pesky Mavericks 105-101 on the road. The Spurs hold 6th seed …

According to BR, the Spurs have exceeded exceptions. RELATIVE TO EXPECTIONS. That is what Bleacher Report wants you to know about their NBA Midseason Grades. Basically, a C means a team has “met exceptions,” and anything above or below means expectations were either met or not met, respectively. In other words, these are not power rankings. With that out of …
It’s called Trade Golf because you shoot for the lowest score. While the trade deadline can be an exciting time for fans anticipating big moves and shakeups for both their teams and the entire league, expectations in San Antonio are generally tempered. The last time the Spurs made a mid-season trade was 2014’s blockbuster Nando De Colo-for-Austin Daye swap that …
Tony explains how he has wrongfully taken blame for Kawhi’s departure. We recently took a look at another Michael C. Wright masterpiece about the chain of events that led to GOAT guard Tony Parker’s departure from the Spurs. I mainly focused on Parker himself, from his quad injury to his decision to seek a rotation spot elsewhere — and no …
What Rudy Gay’s probability in Dallas does to the starting line-up The Spurs starting line-ups have been very telling of the injury situation in San Antonio this season. For starters, there is no Dejounte Murray. It’s been so long since we’ve seen him play that I now have to remind myself that he is in fact still on the roster. …
He averages more minutes than all but two players in the league, and he’s starting to show signs of fatigue. It was an eventful week for the Spurs. They not only participated in one of the most exciting games of the year but also got to host Tony Parker in his return to San Antonio. Milestones were reached and tributes …
San Antonio’s young point guard is excelling in setting up easy buckets. The Spurs’ offense looks a little broken right now. Over their last four games, the Spurs are scoring just 107.2 points per 100 possessions, far below their season average of 113.5, and that’s including their offensive explosion against the Thunder. Without Rudy Gay over that period, and with …
It was a tough decision for Tony, but the right one for his career. Tony Parker didn’t want to leave the Spurs, and they didn’t want him to leave, so why did he unexpectedly depart from the only NBA organization he ever knew? It’s complicated, but ESPN’s Michael C. Wright has you covered, delving deep into what all transpired between …
As Spurs fans grappled with the return of Tony, the Spurs players grappled with an inability to put the ball in the hoop I don’t know if you heard, but Tony Parker came back tonight. That’s a real kick in the pants, isn’t it? Our little frenchman out there spinning into the lane wearing a teal jersey. I laughed, I …
The active member of the Spurs Big 3 made a one-time appearance last night. It was weird. Right? It’s just weird. Tony Parker headed into the AT&T Center last night not wearing a silver and black jersey? Even stranger, teal and purple. I mean, those colors shouldn’t even be together in the first place. It was great to cheer him …
