[Bonner4MVPzz]

How do Tiago fans justify him always being hurt? Pop playing him too many minutes now? lol injury prone

Lol faggot who supports RJ

[DPG21920]

How do Tiago fans justify him always being hurt? Pop playing him too many minutes now? lol injury prone

Shit poster. Celebrating injuries to our good players & begging for RJ to come back :lmao

[timtonymanu]

[Libri]

Monaco calling the game again. :sleep:sleep

[ace3g]

nice move by Kawhi, shot over Griffin,

[Barfunk]

Can the Clip-Show win a championship with alley-oop ball?

[Robz4000]

Leonard doing work on Blake tbh.

[GB20]

was that a foul?

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Lol @ the crw=owd "Ooooooohhhh"

[loveforthegame]

Green doing some work out there too. :tu

[DesignatedT]

Lol multiple trolls making appearances now.

[hater]

Kawhi baby! what a gem

[TDMVPDPOY]

wow KL doing a good job on that scrub griffin

wanan see KL posting up on him...i think he can score over that scrub

[jermaine]

Thank u Jesus 4 Leonard an parker.

[DPG21920]

Kawhi battling Griffin

[ace3g]

another good defensive effort by Kawhi against Griffin in the paint.

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Trading baskets....

[ace3g]

Green 3

[angelbelow]

There were many apart of that crowd. Including Pop and RC. It wasn't long after that I realized I was wrong.

Lol getting offended every time someone brings up Tiagos name unless it's about how great he is.

You should really stick to making empty posts.

[DPG21920]

Damn Kawhi is in a tough spot.

[Bill_Brasky]

Kawhi givin Blake a lot of trouble...

[hater]

wow Kawhi solid D vs. Griffin!

[bklynspursfan]

SUp everyone... Man Kawhi is doing better than Bonner or Blair smh..

[loveforthegame]

3 fouls on Leonard. Damn.

[DesignatedT]

Shit poster. Celebrating injuries to our good players & begging for RJ to come back :lmao

Not celebrating. Love Tiago, just don't think he should start.... Apparently you do...

lol fuck RJ. Get something new. You have been using the same shit on me for 3 years now and it's never worked lmao

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

it's an impossible task, but i give a thumb up for Kawhi for trying to check Griffin

[Borosai]

It's amazing how much better Duncan was in his early years than Griffin will ever be.

[Barfunk]

damn 3 fouls on Leonard

[DPG21920]

You should really stick to making empty posts.

+1 I tried my hardest to ignore it but it's time he knew. I'll let it go now. It was because he celebrated Tiago getting hurt.

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Im sure most of you dont care bout shoesbut kawhi rockin those True Blue Air jordan 3s :hat

[Robz4000]

lol refs not calling obvious fouls. This is pathetic.

[ace3g]

damn Kawhi with 3 fouls now...

[bklynspursfan]

Better not call that shit after Jordan just clotheslined TP and Pushed TD

[DPG21920]

Not celebrating. Love Tiago, just don't think he should start.... Apparently you do...

lol fuck RJ. Get something new. You have been using the same shit on me for 3 years now and it's never worked lmao

I said Tiago needs more minutes next to Tim. Probably means he has to start some. Timvp says the same thing, lol you scoffing him.

[DesignatedT]

There you go Duncan.

[ace3g]

tied game!!

[bklynspursfan]

Timmy saving us on the boards and defense

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Duncan using that Delorean

[Robz4000]

Tie game? I'll take it.

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Awesome to see them fight back in this game.

[Sense]

Great play... Pop is amazing.

[024]

pretty good 2nd quarter

[jermaine]

They need to put Neal in an let him hit the long ball

[timtonymanu]

Pretty damn good game now considering the shitty start and Splitter's injury.

Tim is finally warming up.

[Muser]

Spurs have stopped them playing monkey ball so they've come back.

[hater]

Green doing great job on Floppy3

[024]

pretty uninspiring play by cp3
can't tell if cp3 is just not trying or if green is playing excellent defense

[DPG21920]

Great job by the Spurs. Hanging tough and fighting hard. Clips aren't a blowout type time either way usually.

Scoffing DT seems to have good mojo though :wow

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Parker!!!!!!!

[Robz4000]

LOL a lead? Wah the hell?!

[Refocus]

tp

[Barfunk]

Fuck yea

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Parker!

[Muser]

Daaaamn Parker with the grown man move

[loveforthegame]

I didn't think we'd be looking at a tie game at the half with a possible chance to be up.

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Bonner taught TP that

[benefactor]

Undermanned disciplined team>talented undisciplined team

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Lol did TP travel???

[jermaine]

Tony muthafuckin Parker da sexy Frenchman

[Drachen]

did anyone see paul try to flop with .1 left?

[hater]

We Stacked!!!

[DesignatedT]

Thata way to close.

[GB20]

that shit was fasssst hahahaha

[loveforthegame]

Parker of course scores when I'm not looking.

Good job by the Spurs to recover and be up 2 at the half. Have to come out focused in the 2nd half.

[biziofromdowntown]

Holy shit, what a team we r, pleaz beat this LA team, i hate DeAndre Jordan!

[Amuseddaysleeper]

Great job by the Spurs. Hanging tough and fighting hard. Clips aren't a blowout type time either way usually.

Scoffing DT seems to have good mojo though :wow

Carry on

[DPG21920]

pretty uninspiring play by cp3


can't tell if cp3 is just not trying or if green is playing excellent defense

CP3 has gotten off to really slow starts lately. He's not overly aggressive early and looks to get others going. Combine that with the fact he's struggling w his shot and you get this. He's had some big 2nd halfs though.

[biskvito]

lol Clippers
lol Mo Williams
lol street basketball
lol bad knees

[WeNeedLength]

I really could not fathom this to be the halftime score after Splitter got hurt and the Spurs shooting 32% down 11 points. :wow`

[EricD]

lol DT getting owned.

Glad it's obvious to most how empty his posts are.

Get a clue bub!

[timtonymanu]

Much better effort in the 2nd quarter. I hope that 1st quarter doesn't bite us in the ass later. Get well Tiago.

[Borosai]

At the half, the Spurs have the lead and the Clippers have the highlight dunks.

[bklynspursfan]

We missed a ton of shots in the 1st quarter. RJ 2 wide open corner looks, and another at the top of the key. We had another game like this when we went down like 16 but came back to win cause we started hitting shots. Great way to close out the half 17-5 run

[jag]

Just got in and turned the game on... What's goin on with Splitter? Just foul trouble?

[Cane]

Great stuff from Parker.

Good to see the Spurs with the lead after starting 0-8 in the first quarter.

[DPG21920]

oo call off the attack dogs seriously :lol

do you need a primer on how to put a poster on ignore?

I'll make a youtube for you, seriously...or maybe you'll feel more comfortable if Slomo teaches you how to use a mouse first?

Are we having a gtg soon or whattttt?

[timvp]

Lot of heart in that run. Unfortunately it's going to be hard to keep it up without Splitter being available to help the bench buy some minutes in the second half. But they're scrapping so they may surprise.

I didn't think Green on CP3 was going to work but it has been effective so far. :tu

[DesignatedT]

lol DT getting owned.

Glad it's obvious to most how empty his posts are.

Get a clue bub!

Another troll. Yes! That makes it like 4 now!

[ajballer4]

Green's D on CP3 is A+++

[WeNeedLength]

CP3 has gotten off to really slow starts lately. He's not overly aggressive early and looks to get others going. Combine that with the fact he's struggling w his shot and you get this. He's had some big 2nd halfs though.

Yes, but TP has approached the game the same way and usually takes off in the second half. Could be very interesting to watch this second half to see who steps up and wins the game for their respective teams; Parker or Cp3.

[DesignatedT]

Going to be interesting to see how Pop handles the big rotation in the 2nd half.

[EricD]

Splitter strained calf. :depressed

Looking forward to Leonard getting minutes at the 4 with him out for a few weeks.

[TDMVPDPOY]

we need expert advice on how to cure calf injuries....koriwhat and kbp is needed now, whether tattooing them or fcking calfs...whats the best cure bitches

[Darkwaters]

Just started watching. Can someone give me a quick recap of the first half?

[DPG21920]

Just got in and turned the game on... What's goin on with Splitter? Just foul trouble?

Calf strain out for game.

[bklynspursfan]

Shit---- Hopefully it's nothing

Mike Monroe @Monroe_SA -
@manuginobili limping to locker room after final play of 1st half vs. Clips; no rewport yet

[Sense]

Between the foul trouble and Splitter's injury, Pop has made some excellent adjustments that brought this team back in the game and with a lead.. It seems like the Spurs are getting called very touchy fouls but I've seen Duncan get fouled as he's going for a rebound about 4 times already and none were called..

Hopefully that starts to change, and hopefully Parker keeps this going..

[ace3g]

Mike Monroe @Monroe_SA

Close

@manuginobili limping to locker room after final play of 1st half vs. Clips; no rewport yet

WTF... did anyone else catch this...

[biziofromdowntown]

Greens makin CP3 mad, luv it

[007nites]

Timmy already with 11 rebounds

[ManuTastic]

Like I said, that early lead was too early to worry about. This Spurs team has a lot of weapons and a lot of confidence courtesy of that epic Dallas game.

And lol @ KMart jawing about how he loves to guard Duncan. Because Duncan beats you like a drum so much, Kenyon?

[Barfunk]

I still say Ginobili needs to start eventually. Green was doing great of the bench anyway....

[DesignatedT]

Shit---- Hopefully it's nothing

Mike Monroe @Monroe_SA -
@manuginobili limping to locker room after final play of 1st half vs. Clips; no rewport yet

WTF? :bang

I'm getting pissed.

[Bruno]

Splitter injury sucks. Let's hope he won't be out too long.

Getting quickly a player for a 10 days contract shouldn't be too complicate. Toros are too in LA for a game against the D-Fenders. Spurs can either call up a Toros or Malcolm Thomas who plays for the D-Fenders.

[jag]

Calf strain out for game.

Motherfucker... That's like 3 weeks for him

[jestersmash]

Spurs: 8 personal fouls
Clippers: 2 personal fouls
(DeAndre Jordan: 0 personal fouls)

[DPG21920]

TP was a stud on defense that half. He was switched onto many bigger guys and did work

[Death In June]

What happened to Splitter? Missed the first half

[EricD]

Going to be interesting to see how Pop handled the big rotation in the 2nd half.

Not that interesting.

Not hard to figure out. More minutes for Bonner, Blair and now Leonard.

[jag]

What the hell is he doing before games. Stretch it out bro

[siraulo23]

great day for spurs fans WTF

terrible

[Cane]

Ginobili didn't look good this game but damn if he's limping :(

[DPG21920]

Manu y tu?

[TDMVPDPOY]

Spurs: 8 personal fouls
Clippers: 2 personal fouls
(DeAndre Jordan: 0 personal fouls)

him and evans are gettin away too much on fouls called...fkn horseshit

[pgardn]

CP3 has gotten off to really slow starts lately. He's not overly aggressive early and looks to get others going. Combine that with the fact he's struggling w his shot and you get this. He's had some big 2nd halfs though.

Exactly. The posum snake.

He waits till the 4th quarter. Last game he took over at the end after scoring 2 pts in the first 3 quarters. So far Green is doing a really good job on him. We wait.

[EricD]

Splitter injury sucks. Let's hope he won't be out too long.

Getting quickly a player for a 10 days contract shouldn't be too complicate. Toros are too in LA for a game against the D-Fenders. Spurs can either call up a Toros or Malcolm Thomas who plays for the D-Fenders.

I have a feeling Spurs will sign a player of Thomas' caliber, but not play him. He will be signed as insurance most importantly.

Have a feeling Pop will now give Leonard some minutes at the 4 spot.

[Drachen]

Like I said, that early lead was too early to worry about. This Spurs team has a lot of weapons and a lot of confidence courtesy of that epic Dallas game.

And lol @ KMart jawing about how he loves to guard Duncan. Because Duncan beats you like a drum so much, Kenyon?

was he jawing AGAIN about that? he gets killed every time and has been saying this since the finals in 03. WOW

[Robz4000]

Splitter and Manu hurt. Anderson gonna get some minutes now.

[jag]

Greens makin CP3 mad, luv it

Paul is one of the biggest pussies in the league. Dude is a ho

[bklynspursfan]

TBH I would go back to Leonard on Griffin. He's our best chance other than Timmy

[Borosai]

Griffin and Paul will get mad at someone today. Probably Bonner, while he tears them up like a bad check.

[Paranoid Pop]

They're going to go for Griffin on Bonner, gonna get ugly tbh.

[itzsoweezee]

Splitter getting injured means popovich is going to demote him big time. Say goodbye to any chance of a new twin towers.

[GB20]

if ginobli is injured again , i think he should retired. don't get me wrong i love ginobli

[SpursRock20]

Spurs: 8 personal fouls
Clippers: 2 personal fouls
(DeAndre Jordan: 0 personal fouls)

The Joey Crawford effect in full force.

[Paranoid Pop]

We'll have no choice but to hack a Griffin once Leonard fouls out, he shot 2-9 against Dallas at the line and basically choked the win away for them.

[Sense]

I can't believe Splitter played 2:27 and managed to get 2 fouls and get injured -_-.

[NASpurs]

Jesus, now Manu is hurt? What's up with these South American players being built like they were made in China or something.

[WeNeedLength]

Ginobili limping and Splitter strained calf? WTF is going on. Now is the time to pull a trigger on a trade, clear as day..

[BanditHiro]

we are cursed

[ajballer4]

Manu was tripped on the last inbounds play. Im guessing thats where it came from?

[jag]

Ginobili limping and Splitter strained calf? WTF is going on. Now is the time to pull a trigger on a trade, clear as day..

It's time to tank. It's all over...

[The ADMIRAL 50]

28-38 to 45-43 was a nice end to the half

[Bruno]

I have a feeling Spurs will sign a player of Thomas' caliber, but not play him. He will be signed as insurance most importantly.

Have a feeling Pop will now give Leonard some minutes at the 4 spot.

Yeah, Thomas is the most likely to be signed. He knows the team, he is in playing shape and he is in LA. Saying that, he isn't really a good fit to cover Splitter's injury because he isn't a center.

[loveforthegame]

Obviously want Ginobli healthy and out on the floor but at least we have guys to help cover for him when he's out.

OTH, we're screwed without Splitter. It doesn't matter who the Spurs sign on a 10 day contract Pop won't play them.

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Im callin a close game with 1-2 mins left then TP says fuck u CP3 even though your my friend, and goes off.

[TDMVPDPOY]

TBH I would go back to Leonard on Griffin. He's our best chance other than Timmy

the reach in gambles from leonard and green for steals and forcing turnovers is doing us good....

[EVAY]

Hey, does anybody know what Danny Ferry is doing for a living these days?


(I know he's calling this game, but I mean...for real money?)

I assume he must still live in Alamo Heights?

[DPG21920]

Danny is in the front office now for thevspurs

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Manu was tripped on the last inbounds play. Im guessing thats where it came from?

Deandre threw him out into the stands, it wasn't really a trip

[ajballer4]

Deandre threw him out into the stands, it wasn't really a trip

Thats not the play I was talking about. That was a while ago. Right toward the end of the half

[timtonymanu]

Manu's on the bench.

[Kuestmaster]

Fuck ginobili injured again? this is getting sad at this point. btw anyone knows how long is to recover for a strained calf?

[GB20]

Jesus, now Manu is hurt? What's up with these South American players being built like they were made in China or something.

looks like scola is the only player who can play 82 games a year from south america.

[ace3g]

Bonner 3!!

[EVAY]

Danny is in the front office now for thevspurs

Thanks, man.:toast

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Bonner 4 MVP

[DPG21920]

Keep it up matt

[Juggity]

Bonner with ten points, leading the spurs

[TDMVPDPOY]

lol bonner can he be leading scorer this game

[roycrikside]

Manu's sitting on the bench, so it can't be that bad.

[TDMVPDPOY]

lol jordan with the funni turnover, wtf was that he just did

[timvp]

Hey, does anybody know what Danny Ferry is doing for a living these days?


(I know he's calling this game, but I mean...for real money?)

I assume he must still live in Alamo Heights?

He's a VP with the Spurs.

[loveforthegame]

Bonner stepping up. :tu

[stephen jackson]

monacco is the worst

[EVAY]

He's a VP with the Spurs.

:toast

[DPG21920]

Maybe Ferry will drop a juicy nugget for Spurs fans

[ace3g]

Maybe Ferry will drop a juicy nugget for Spurs fans

One of the reasons I like when he calls games.

[blkroadrunners]

That Danny Green 3 was sooo smooth.

[TDMVPDPOY]

[Libri]

nothing but net for Green

[ace3g]

[loveforthegame]

Spurs need to keep it up. Don't let the Clippers have any hope of coming back.

[Juggity]

[timtonymanu]

3's are falling now.

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Spreadin Dat floor....

[Kuestmaster]

[Muser]

Holy shit Spurs can't miss from 3.

[Libri]

The Green lantern is on!

[DesignatedT]

[loveforthegame]

Bonner doing some damage out there. :lol

Nice to see Green nailing shots again. :tu

[Drachen]

He's Heating up!

[DPG21920]

Team coming out focused son

[Borosai]

I know this is a well-known fact by now, but Paul is such a little bitch.

[jermaine]

Tony parker

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Fuckin Parker man, what a boss.

[Drachen]

Bonner doing some damage out there. :lol



...and not to us!

[TDMVPDPOY]

cp3 top3 pg my arse, dude is gettin exposed

[DesignatedT]

Tony money

[Kuestmaster]

TP schooling "best PG of the league"

[bklynspursfan]

TP feeling it

[Libri]

The Green lantern is on!

Is that a good nickname for Green when he's making 3s?

[hater]

We Stacked!!!

[Mal]

my gad, Del Negro is such a weak coach. Clipps aint going anywhere near championship with him

[loveforthegame]

What a turnaround.

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Im callin a close game with 1-2 mins left then TP says fuck u CP3 even though your my friend, and goes off.

I was just playin :downspin:

[Barfunk]

Don't take the foot off the gas....

[DPG21920]

Danny's floaters need work. That 3-6 foot shot is tough for him.

[TDMVPDPOY]

wtf didnt know crawford was callin the game, lol duncan recent foul not arguing with him

[Muser]

my gad, Del Negro is such a weak coach. Clipps aint going anywhere near championship with him

:tu he's pretty much what Mike Brown was in Cleveland but with shitty D. Relying on Oops and dunks for a large percentage of buckets won't cut it.

[jermaine]

Parker put up numbers against the so call nba's best pg.

[ace3g]

Kevin Arnovitz @kevinarnovitz

...make that 20 points on 8 second-half possession for San Antonio (250 pts per 100 possessions).

[BanditHiro]

damn it never ends scrub superstar foye keeping the clippers in it.

[ThePop]

I stop watching the game for a few minutes and this happens. I don't know to start watching again or not.

[timvp]

Duncan with some questionable shot selection against Jordan . . .

[jestersmash]

I'm expecting our lead to be cut short with Tony out of the game.

I know this is probably heretical to say around these parts, but right now Manu is an offensive liability for the team.

[Sense]

Yeah, hasn't Foye gone off on us more than Billups ever has.. ?


Foye has struggled in his new role as the starter.


The Spurs just seem to have those players that like to go off against them..

[SpursRock20]

I'm expecting our lead to be cut short with Tony out of the game.

I know this is probably heretical to say around these parts, but right now Manu is an offensive liability for the team.

I disagree. Although he isn't shooting well, he is not looking for his shot and is still a master at the pick and roll.

[Mal]

Kevin Arnovitz @kevinarnovitz

...make that 20 points on 8 second-half possession for San Antonio (250 pts per 100 possessions).

Gimme that in playoff

[TDMVPDPOY]

Duncan with some questionable shot selection against Jordan . . .

when we are up +10, we usually do stupid shit with out leads and shot selection, yes we can afford to miss shots, but not at the expense of allowing the other team gettin back into the game....

[jestersmash]

Or wait, is Tony still in the game?

[will_spurs]

TP run with 2/2 FT + 2 shots and 1 rebound. Shitting all over Paul right now.

[jestersmash]

I disagree. Although he isn't shooting well, he is not looking for his shot and is still a master at the pick and roll.

Hey I'd love to be wrong. We'll see what happens.

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Gif of crawford plz?

[Libri]

Crawford is happy

[DPG21920]

Foye has talent and was doing well in his role as a back up, not too surprising he's having a good game. You'd think he'd have a couple with extended minutes.

[will_spurs]

BTW did I get that right that Parker is the leading scorer in the whole NBA from the 3-9ft range?

[Juggity]

Fuck, need to get back to making shots :lol

[Bonner4MVPzz]

I stop watching the game for a few minutes and this happens. I don't know to start watching again or not.

Please stop watching, your making the clips get hot

[loveforthegame]

Anyone but Foye please. :depressed

[roycrikside]

Duncan and Parker forcing up too many bad shots.

[DPG21920]

Good to see Manu back

[BanditHiro]

wow now we can't make anything

[ace3g]

now all our shots look flat...

[TDMVPDPOY]

why still no KL in this quarter?

[DPG21920]

Doubling off of foye when he's hot is risky.

[timtonymanu]

Damn cooling off too much.

[007nites]

neal u idiot

[Libri]

Neal passing a wide open 3. :/

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Neal is always ball watching..

[Sense]

What the fuck is Neal doing not shooting that wide open 3?

[timtonymanu]

Come on, Spurs. You have to find a way to adjust.

[Bonner4MVPzz]

:bang:bang:bang:bang:bang:bang:bang:bang:bang:bang :bang:bang:bang:bang

[BanditHiro]

we are so fucking weak

[timtonymanu]

Making Foye look too good. Christ, Spurs don't go lazy now.

[Kuestmaster]

Damn Foye...

[loveforthegame]

Ginobli just loves those dumb fouls. :(

[TDMVPDPOY]

doing stupid shit with leads, nothing usual with this team

[DPG21920]

Hold onto to the lead.

[jermaine]

Why haven't POP put Leonard on Foye yet?

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

Foye is such a streaky shooter

[BanditHiro]

we can't make a shot.

[ace3g]

Green why didn't you dunk that...

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Fuck you danny

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

lool green

[007nites]

green.....................

[Kuestmaster]

C'mon Green dunk that shit

[timtonymanu]

Goddamnit, this team and it's inability to dunk.

[DPG21920]

Missed layup leads to dunk

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Garbage lineup

[TDMVPDPOY]

fkn stupid shit

[Sense]

Neal can't hit shit.

[SpursRulez4eVeR]

talk about a momentum killer :lol

[Juggity]

Spurs and clippers trading chokes

[loveforthegame]

This team needs to grow a pair.

[TDMVPDPOY]

still no KL, wtf is pop saving him for?

get him into the game to protect the lead damn it

[Barfunk]

Blair

[Sense]

Smh.

[Mal]

What a crappy lineup

[jestersmash]

Gary Neal is currently the best playmaker on the floor for the Spurs right now. This isn't going to cut it.

[roycrikside]

what the fuck are they doing out there? Why is Manu even in the game if he's never gonna touch the ball?

[timtonymanu]

such a bipolar team

[Bonner4MVPzz]

I hate Pops terrible lineups.

[Barfunk]

Unbelievable

[Bonner4MVPzz]

Tech????
