1. Tim Duncan – Whether it’s injury or age, Tim isn’t the same player he once was.  Still a force, but Tim was formerly the best in the game.

2. Tony Parker – Tony chose to play for France in the Summer and the Spurs have paid the price all year.  As weird as it sounds, it’s probably a good thing he got significantly injured so that he can rest and heal and give the Spurs a spark coming back.  Maybe then he won’t be the oldest 27 year old in the NBA.

3. Gregg Popovich – Pop now regularly makes decisions that seem counter-intuitive.  He’s finally given Malik Hairston a chance though which is a thumbs up move.

4. Richard Jefferson – RJ needs to start believing in himself.  Outside of the occasional spectacular play, Jefferson doesn’t play like a major free agent acquisition.

5. Time – The Spurs were the best show running for 4 years, but their time has come and gone.  Happens to everyone and everything.
