Coach Pops has given all the chances to prove a point. He has become an able 2nd pg for the team. The same maybe said of Diaw and Jackson. Enough time for physical conditioning is afforded them and gel with the rest. Good Luck guys. Go Spurs!  Let’s hope Mills continues to improve his game.

I feel like these gems that they consistently find stem from our unique ability to develop players and it's something that has piqued my interest recently especially bcause of our 10-game winning streak. I think player development, in essence, is the market inefficiency that the Spurs are exploiting just like the A's exploited OBP. Teams spend so much energy drafting players but, in the end, if you can't fit that player into your system, give him some confidence and put him in favorable positions then you render his talent relatively useless.I really appreciate your comment.   @dreamsofexile I like the way you put the Spurs FO as utilizing “Moneyball” because, well, that’s a pretty good way to define their success.
