10-1

[MannyIsGod]

And yet you know this place is about to go into full meltdown mode and not be bearable until Saturday's game. :lol

[703 Spurz]

As idiotic as it may seem yes....

Can the Spurs lose by 4 next time instead of what will probably be a 29 pt defeat?

[DPG21920]

Manny, don't be silly. Just bc you have been on a run doesn't excuse a cowardly performance. Losing is ok; not competing is not.

[Drachen]

And yet you know this place is about to go into full meltdown mode and not be bearable until Saturday's game. :lol

I don't like it but I am no where near meltdown mode. If we lose game 4 by 40 points then I might consider it.

[MannyIsGod]

I never said it was OK. But you're going to see a whole bunch of posts about how the Spurs are heartless and blah blah blah blah. Its just one bad game after 20 good ones.

[MannyIsGod]

I don't like it but I am no where near meltdown mode. If we lose game 4 by 40 points then I might consider it.

You're rational.

[urunobili]

DPG delivers with his post :tu

[Uriel]

I don't think we'll see much of a meltdown. Not like after that Lakers loss.

Most of us are too depressed to even stay on SpursTalk anymore.

[urunobili]

Its mostly because of the way we lost that could bring some insecurities TBH.

[Ginofan]

For once I'm glad there's only one day between games 3 and 4. The quicker we get to Game 4 and take the W, the quicker this shitty feeling of a loss is gone.

[DPG21920]

It wasn't a bad game; it was a horrific one in which they did not compete.

OKC has taken massive shots and kept fighting. Spurs folded. That's an issue. Whether they bounce back isn't the point; for tonight that's a major issue.

[MannyIsGod]

So if they bounce back and win the next two games are they are still heartless?

DPG you must have been dying for a loss so you could revert to old form.

[DMC]

I could tell by how Tony stared at the defense in the opening sequence that the Spurs were not there tonight.

Hopefully it gives RW the green light in his head to fire away. Winning is pointless if you don't look like the hero imo.

[MannyIsGod]

Its mostly because of the way we lost that could bring some insecurities TBH.

You're insecure about the Spurs after one loss?

[DPG21920]

So if they bounce back and win the next two games are they are still heartless?

DPG you must have been dying for a loss so you could revert to old form.

That makes zero sense. Absolutely none. You obviously missed what I posted.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Manny, don't be silly. Just bc you have been on a run doesn't excuse a cowardly performance. Losing is ok; not competing is not.

#agreeance

[MannyIsGod]

So when the Spurs came back in game 1, did the Thunder fold?

[MannyIsGod]

#agreeance

LOL yeah because you're one of the more optimistic Spurs fans, CBF. You agreeing with DPG on this is like TPark defending Pop playing Bonner.

[DPG21920]

No. They kept draining 3's to cut the lead to 3.

[MannyIsGod]

The Spurs are a young and inexperienced team who will let the margin of victory in this game affect them for the rest of the series.

[DMC]

So when the Spurs came back in game 1, did the Thunder fold?
They had defeat on their faces. That's a maturity thing.

Tonight the Spurs seemed to realize early they were out of sorts. I don't know what happened exactly, but it is what it is. On to the next game. Gotta give credit to the Thunder though, they were a juggernaut tonight.

[DPG21920]

:lol Manny making no sense. If anyone is insecurities are showing its an OP starting a thread like this to shield any negative response to a terrible performance.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

LOL yeah because you're one of the more optimistic Spurs fans, CBF. You agreeing with DPG on this is like TPark defending Pop playing Bonner.

lol
I just don't like the trends

Less effective bench play
Turning it over more and more
Not rebOunding
Putting guys on the ft line more

either we didn't compete or spurs are getting tired

[MannyIsGod]

No. They kept draining 3's to cut the lead to 3.

Oh so it wasn't folding when they gave up a 9 point lead going into the fourth. Ok.

How do you think the margin of victory in this game will affect the Spurs going forward?

[MannyIsGod]

lol
I just don't like the trends

Oh you mean the trend where the Spurs have won 31-34?

Of course this series looks worse, CBF. The Thunder are far better than the the previous two opponents.

[DPG21920]

Manny trying to use random Internet throw away lines when I have consistently been one of the most level headed realistic Spurs fans on here :lol

Just answer the questions. They're not hard.

[TE]

I agree with DPG here as I stated in the game blog. Not competing and getting outplayed/outhustled/outcoached deserves some worry.

[MannyIsGod]

They had defeat on their faces. That's a maturity thing.

Tonight the Spurs seemed to realize early they were out of sorts. I don't know what happened exactly, but it is what it is. On to the next game. Gotta give credit to the Thunder though, they were a juggernaut tonight.

Pop didn't play Tim or Tony in the fourth. He gave up pretty early. I personally think he wanted a loss.

[DPG21920]

So then you understand why the previous record means jack, and why im worried over a top to bottom horrible performance

[Johnny RIngo]

Its mostly because of the way we lost that could bring some insecurities TBH.

Eh, we were destroyed by the Lakers this year and came back and gave 'em their worst home loss in five years. This squad isn't a group of quitters like the Spurs teams of the past few years(Bonner is but we've all come to expect that from him). Spurs win in five or six.

[MannyIsGod]

In any event, the point of this thread wasn't to say the loss was good. Obviously the loss is bad. Its not the end of the world by any means.

The point of this thread was to talk about the stupid shit many fans were saying in the game blog talking about the Spurs being gutless and heartless etc etc. The kind of shit you always see from some posters in here after any loss.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Pop didn't play Tim or Tony in the fourth. He gave up pretty early. I personally think he wanted a loss.

I agree, he wanted a loss but I personally think that's bull crap

That's why I keep saying Pop deserves worst shit of any spur

[AnthonyM]

Not losing until Game 3 of the Western Conference playoffs isn't a fluke. The Spurs know the deal, and they knew the Thunder would respond. Game 4 will be more telling. It'll be tough against OKC. But the Spurs know that. It's fans that put too much stock into games 1 and 2, not the team.

They've been through this before. They know they have a tough battle on Saturday night. I believe they'll be fully prepared and come out on top.

All we can do until then is wait.

[MannyIsGod]

So then you understand why the previous record means jack, and why im worried over a top to bottom horrible performance

No. The Spurs had one bad game. That doesn't mean that they're not the team that just put 20 in a row up has been destroying teams.

[DPG21920]

It wasn't a bad game; it was a horrific one in which they did not compete.

As bad as the Spurs were playing I doubt you were gong to get a win. Its like I was saying in the Scott Brooks thread the other night. Why play those guys in the fourth when you're more than likely not going to win?

I think Pop was terrible tonight, but not playing Tim and Tony in the fourth isn't the reason why.

[DPG21920]

Oh so it wasn't folding when they gave up a 9 point lead going into the fourth. Ok.

How do you think the margin of victory in this game will affect the Spurs going forward?

I don't know what's funnier: Manny missing the point while claiming others are or trying to compare how OKC has competed in games 1 & 2 to the Spurs tonight :lol.

Look, you don't have to start defensive threads and be intellectually dishonest because the Spurs played awful. It doesn't mean they suck it simply means they played horrific tonight.

[MannyIsGod]

:lol not only is Manny not making sense he isn't reading.

Nice selective quoting.

You're still ignore half the questions I asked you. If you want to put on a show for people go ahead, but the questions are there if you want to actually answer them.

[DPG21920]

Not playing the guys in the fourth was the right move. The point is the guys didn't even show up at all. Okc was down 2-0 but they had their chances to win both games. Not only that, they did it with tremendous resolve. You can rest ok knowing you can take a punch and keep moving forward. Tonight the Spurs were a one hitter quitter.

[MannyIsGod]

So a Spurs team that didn't show up was leading after 1? Pretty sure they showed up. They just played badly.

I agree, by the fourth I wanted them to sit
im mad at Pop for his entire 2nd quarter management
We were in perfect spurs position tonight start the first

Then Pop went bench, Pop had neal ball handling with many on the court, Pop went Duncan 4 down hybrid bench lineup we haven't seen in ages, Pop goes Anderson


All in the second quarter

Pop was arguably the first spark to cause the spurs total meltdown

[DPG21920]

Nice selective quoting.

:lmao. You starting a thread and basically lying is not a show, but me answering as many of your questions as I could is not answering your questions and putting on a show? Must be cool to live in Manny-World.

[MannyIsGod]

The questions are still there if you want to answer them. I didn't realize you were prevented from answering them and forced to edit them out of your selective quotes.

My bad.

He went to the normal bench to start the 2nd and they laid a complete egg. He left Bonner in way too long and played him way too much. I wish I could say I have faith that he won't do that again, but I don't. I just don't think its going to be THAT big of an issue going forward.

[DPG21920]

Leading after a quarter does not = showing up in the playoffs especially when you saw what transpired afterwards.

Manny, don't be silly. Just bc you have been on a run doesn't excuse a cowardly performance. Losing is ok; not competing is not.

[DPG21920]

I need a link to the questions I missed that you are basing your argument on.

[MannyIsGod]

So you don't remember which ones you answered and which ones you didn't?

[DPG21920]

Manny couldn't wait for a Spurs loss so be could resort back to his old form.

[MannyIsGod]

DPG didn't show up tonight.

[DPG21920]

So you don't remember which ones you answered and which ones you didn't?

No, you don't. Just end the argument and quote the multiple questions I didn't answer that your argument is based on. Is that difficult for you in order to prove what you are saying isn't a lie?

[DPG21920]

DPG didn't show up tonight.

Let's take a quick count of Manny +1's in the thread.

[MannyIsGod]

Who do I need to prove it to?

[MannyIsGod]

Let's take a quick count of Manny +1's in the thread.

Count them, IMO.

Everyone. I'm saying you are a liar and just making stuff up bc you got defensive. It's ok, I think you are a good to great poster.

[Cant_Be_Faded]

Can't we all just get along

You are everyone? :lmao

So the deflection tactic, heh.

[MannyIsGod]

Can't we all just get along

Pay attention. This is how you get to 50k. DPG is going to pass me within a year, TBH.

[spursfan1000]

It's not just the lost that is in meltdown, it's the fact that okc did very well with their game adjustments and if they play this well game four we could be going back to sa tied up, we will see though.

[DPG21920]

You are posting a lot in here, can't pass someone like that

I'm keeping pace right now, but you are on a faster overall pace than me. I'm just putting up a temporary 20 game win streak before I fold, TBH.

How can someone pass another person when the person in front is posting more than the person behind?

I don't think you know what "keeping pace" is either. It's not keeping the pace when you are leading :lol, that's setting the pace.

:lol manny's math skills saying someone with less of something can pass someone with more of something when the person leading is doing more. :lol

[Capt Bringdown]

I predict a lot of tbh's.

Someone should write a script that automatically inserts tbh into every post, ffs.

How many questions did I ask?

[DPG21920]

But in summary: Manny was defensive about the loss, started a pointless thread because of his insecurities, had me post something in which he misses the point, becomes more enraged than the Hulk when several people agree with me & then lies to save face.

Like I said, trolled by the best :tu

[DPG21920]
