End of an Era?

Twice in the last week I turned off Spurs playoff games, disgusted by lack of execution, as well as overall effort. This is the first time this has happened since Pop took over in 1994. I think it may be time for him and Timmy to bow out. Duncan could probably do pretty well if he wasn't still the only big man worth his salt on the roster (that gets minutes, but that is another post entirely). This regular season was a pleasant surprise, but when Blair went to the bench in March it was pretty much the beginning of the end. McDyess is a great player to have, especially in the playoffs, but increasing his minutes at that point was just a bad move. The NBA has moved on, but it seems to have left Popovich a bit behind. His refusal to play young players has stunted this team's growth, and the defense just isn't there anymore. It's been a good run, but it may be the right time to move on.
