Spurs vs Nuggets: Friday Oct. 12th: 3rd Preseason Game

[ace3g]

Nuggets have some athletic players, good test for our defense.

TP, Diaw, Nando, and Fournier were having dinner tonight (twitter).

[Manu-20]

This should be a real good game hopefully it will have a stream. Things that I will be looking for are if Kawhi and Green finally start to be more productive on both ends and if Nando gets decent playing time and proudces against a real quick athletic nba team.

[spurs10]

Can't wait to see them all. Especially Nando, Curry, Brown, and Powell.

[99 Problems]

Not super likely being second unit guys but I'd like seeing Neal and De Colo have some minutes against a small dynamo like Lawson.

[Fireball]

This will be a good preseason game because the Nuggets are very deep as well ... so regardless which players of Spurs and Nuggets do not play there still will be quality players on the court

[racm]

Iggy vs Kawhi anyone?
ace3g were they having baguettes? :downspin:

[Juggity]

Hope Kawhi doesn't try to do too much again. He doesn't need to be the primary ballhandler.

[spurraider21]

Big test for curry. Nuggets have solid bigs and run the floor. As mentioned, kawhi vs iggy will be awesome to monitor. Of course, we all want to see if Nando can duplicate his play. And lastly, c'mon tiago

[ace3g]

Leonard, Green not worried about preseason imprecision


Kawhi Leonard and Stephen Jackson engaged in a spirited 3-point competition during Friday’s shootaround, continuing a routine that began late last season.

(Spirited from Jackson’s standpoint, at least. He chattered throughout while the stoic Leonard mostly kept his mouth shut.)

Leonard took a rare victory over Jackson, chipping into what he says is a substantial lead for his veteran teammate.

“He’s got me, for sure,” Leonard said. “This is our first game this year, so I’m up 1-0. We’re going to keep shooting. He calls me over and we have a competition. I like it.”

Is there a stream for the game?

[ace3g]

Is there a stream for the game?

should be, like the last game though, might have to wait a few minutes after tip before it starts.

[Bruno]

I already posted the video on ST but Diaw has already faced Fournier a long time ago:

Ha. I love that. Kawhi and Jack are just utter opposites, but it's great that there's still a sense of camaraderie and developing team chemistry. We need both of them to bring the goods this year.

Thanks

[NASpurs]

I might be wrong but I don't think there's going to be a stream for this game. Last time, all of the games streamed were using an international feed + radio feed. Can't even find a stream for the TWolves/Pacers game today.

[ace3g]

Jeff McDonald ‏@JMcDonald_SAEN

No Ginobili (foot) or Mills (ankle) for Spurs tonight vs DEN. Pop says Manu likely for Sunday at HOU. Mills returns to practice next week.

[NASpurs]

nvm, found the Pacers/TWolves game that's using an international feed + radio stream. Now I'm 99% sure the Spurs game is going to be streamed.

No that's a placeholder in case there's an actual stream. They did the same shit with the Spurs/Siena game and it was never shown. The Nuggets/Spurs game and the Hornets/Rockets games aren't being shown in the states but they are internationally with radio feeds for commentary. Someone internationally are streaming those games.

It seems that it's going to be shown on firstrow but they might put up the stream 10-15 minutes late like the TWolves/Pacers game.

Oh ok, I always have problems with firstrow for some reason. I can never get it to work.

[ace3g]

Jeff McDonald ‏@JMcDonald_SAEN

Spurs starters: Parker, Green, Leonard, Duncan, Diaw. Or what might be viewed as the standard first five.

[timtonymanu]

No surprise.

I'm more interested in seeing who's the 5th big.

[Rito3d30]

same problem
but after they have released the desktop app on their website
I can watch games with the app(and it's fk'n convenient:hungry:

You should try that

I'll try that. Hopefully it works, I wouldn't want to miss a good game :drool:

[racm]

With TP and TD starting Kawhi should get his spots more easily.

Other than Kawhi vs Iggy anyone want to see De Colo vs Fournier?

[spursince#99]

where's the stream?

[TDMVPDPOY]

hasnt game started yet?

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Game is about to start. They're doing the introductions now.

[ace3g]

either way streams don't usually start till about 5 min afterwards sometimes

[Manu-20]

anyone have radio feed for now.

[ace3g]

Diaw to Duncan!!!

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Solid start so far.

[racm]

Kawhi still not hitting anything :depressed

[bklynspursfan]

Can't watch idk if anyone is but are we actually playing defense?

[spurraider21]

kawhi still seems like he's trying to do too much sometimes. play within yourself

[timtonymanu]

Kawhi still not hitting anything :depressed

Meh, shouldn't be anything to worry about. He's saving himself for when it counts.

[Spurs Brazil]

Can't watch idk if anyone is but are we actually playing defense?

Well, Denver still has 0 points

[SpursRock20]

... and 4 turnovers

[racm]

Meh, shouldn't be anything to worry about. He's saving himself for when it counts.

Like a playoff game?

[bklynspursfan]

Well, Denver still has 0 points

Right but there are games when teams just can't hit anything... Hence the question lol trying to figure out if it's us or them

[timtonymanu]

Like a playoff game?

Sure as hell not for a preseason game. :lol

I only wish Bonner had the same effect.

[Manu-20]

Man I hope we find out soon if the stream is going to work out not.

[spursince#99]

Think it's a bit of both... Spurs are well ahead even with Kawhi bricking

I only wish Bonner had the same effect.

What happens when you combine Horry and Bonner?

Timmy is feeling it right now!

[racm]

Flight 9 with the transition jam

[spurraider21]

firstrowsports.eu or atdhenet.tv both have working streams

[bklynspursfan]

Leonard 2 offensive boards in 1 sequence

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Nice offensive rebound and put back for Kawhi!

[racm]

Kawhi with the putback

[timtonymanu]

Anthony Carter is back in Denver?

[siraulo23]

stream on firstrow is up

[ace3g]

it's Nando time

[bklynspursfan]

Diaw fighting for the rebound

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Nandooooo. Let's see what he does tonight.

[racm]

I love Diaw fighting for boards :toast

[NASpurs]

Some hectic shit. De Colo in

[Flawless]

Lets go Nando!

[ace3g]

I really like the idea of Nando/neal combo

[TDMVPDPOY]

benzema is in

[spurraider21]

Duncan taking too long to make a move on his isolation move... his efficiency on isolation plays has taken a noticeable dip last couple of years

[Spurs Brazil]

Again De Colo playing PG and Neal SG

[racm]

I really like the idea of Nando/neal combo

One plays PG on offense and SG on defense.

[spurraider21]

it would be an awesome surprise if de colo ends up running away with the backup point guard spot

[bklynspursfan]

Let's see who the first bigs off the bench are. Bonner Blair anyone?

[TimDunkem]

The Coyote looked like he was shaking his sack in some woman's face.

[ace3g]

Nando

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Timmy-Nando connection nice.

[blackfire12]

nando lookin good

[racm]

Nice De Colo cut

[NASpurs]

Manu with the layup... I men De Colo

[jeebus]

Manu with the layup... I men De Colo

No.

[timtonymanu]

Blair and Powell the first bigs.

[TDMVPDPOY]

midget lineup now

[TimDunkem]

Blair and Powell come in, and the Nuggets start playing volleyball.

[racm]

Blair fighting for boards :wow Too bad the Nuggets are playing twin towers

[ace3g]

what is the most french players on the court at the same time in NBA history?

[NASpurs]

No.

All he needs is a bald spot bro.

[blackfire12]

damn neal cmon

[spurraider21]

Neal missed a shot? trade him

[ace3g]

Nando needs to add more speed to those 1 handed passes

[TimDunkem]

Nando needs to add more speed to those 1 handed passes

He didn't have his feet underneath him.

[bklynspursfan]

Turnover city

[jeebus]

Neal.

:lol

[blackfire12]

what in the fuck was that

[spurraider21]

blair and neal missed preseason shots? package them in a trade

[blackfire12]

that shot by blair was just stupid

[racm]

Neal spilled spaghetti there

[freetiago]

neals gonna look real bad defensively right now with 0 rim protection

[TDMVPDPOY]

teh lineup on the court is fkn bullshit, no defense..let alone midgets

[jeebus]

Just think, in the regular season instead of Powell being in, it would be Bonner.

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Yikes. Really sloppy way to end the quarter. Gotta get back on track.

[spursince#99]

play was sloppy as hell

[racm]

This lineup is a joke on D tbh

[spurraider21]

This lineup is a joke on D tbh
maybe it will remind people that powell isn't some savior thats going to dramatically outplay bonner. he's a big man with a career field goal percentage under 44

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Hell yeah, glad I caught this.

[TimDunkem]

The Nando/Neal lineup doesn't look as good as I thought it would. Not surprising considering Blair, and Powell are on the court at the same time.

[TimDunkem]

lol Neal's defense is so damn horrible.

[TDMVPDPOY]

now even a scrub blair is wearing a head band?

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Come on Jack...

[Manu-20]

wow what bs pop put curry in there.

[jeebus]

:lol Jack

[ace3g]

again when SJAX gets in foul trouble and you still need to give Kawhi some rest or he is in foul trouble as well, Spurs need another SF that can play PF as well, why my hopes are still for Brown to make roster

[bklynspursfan]

Didn't look like a foul... It's a quick flashback of Game 6 :td

[blackfire12]

lool

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Good lord.

[racm]

Jax T'd up :lol

[NASpurs]

lol Jackson giving up basically four points.

[TDMVPDPOY]

fck put curry in damn it, stop experimenting with blair and shit

[blackfire12]

jack dgaf

[racm]

BLAIR

[DesertSpur50]

Good follow by Blair

[ace3g]

good pass by Nando there

[blackfire12]

finally 1 decent play

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Nice pass.

[SpursRock20]

What is with these replays that are covering up the live action?

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Is Pop gonna let Blair wear that headband during the regular season?

[blackfire12]

blair you fat ass

[jeebus]

What is with these replays that are covering up the live action?

don't bitch about a free stream, bro.

[TimDunkem]

lol Blair drove to the side that was covered by the defender and sideline.

[TDMVPDPOY]

fck blair is a piece of shit, pass the ball into him, dont expect the ball to be passed out

[Obstructed_View]

That jumper looks nice.

[Rito3d30]

wow
Blair with the mid range

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

Damn, Blair! The jumper exists!

[racm]

Blair jumper

[SPURSCHAMP]

Blair 15ft!

[siraulo23]

15 footer jumper - blair

[spursince#99]

FUCK these replays

[TimDunkem]

Corey Brewer is one of the most improved shooters I have ever seen.

[SpursRock20]

who you think you are?

[DesertSpur50]

Blair throwing up everything he gets.

[spursince#99]

Powell looks nice out there

[TDMVPDPOY]

blair thinks his hot hand, shooting everytime he touches the ball...fkn pathetic, i dont give a shit even if it goes in...contract year

[Manu-20]

This is the thing I hate about blair most he kills the offenseive movement every dam time by just jacking up shot after shot.

[TDMVPDPOY]

still no fkn real big on the court...

[TimDunkem]

Pop is trying to see who sucks the most; Powell or Blair.

[Manu-20]

Pop is trying to see who sucks the most; Powell or Blair.

LOL

[racm]

Jack's post game :toast

[spursince#99]

Pop is trying to see who sucks the most; Powell or Blair.

as much as you may think this is a joke, you're actually right.

[Buddy Holly]

Fuck I hate Blair.

[TDMVPDPOY]

powell and blair both suck, id ont want either on on the team....

blair chuckin every time he receives the ball is just fkn stupid...

[spurraider21]

i'd take blair over powell. both are flawed, but blair plays more physical and with more hustle

[freetiago]

great that Tim still loves to ball after all these years

[NASpurs]

Tough game for Jack.

[spurraider21]

there. blair with block on one end, a minute later with a nice underneath pass for a layup. quit whining about him

[bklynspursfan]

2nd unit defense has been pretty bad

[TimDunkem]

The only thing I like about Blair is his ability to pass the ball (when he actually feels like passing).

[Manu-20]

Fuck these replays.

[SpursNextRomanEmpire]

powell and blair both suck, id ont want either on on the team....

blair chuckin every time he receives the ball is just fkn stupid...

Just shut the fuck up

[TDMVPDPOY]

powell gettin alot of minutes...is pop tryin to showcase him to other teams to do him a favor...

still no fkn curry, let alone splitter....this is gettin stupid

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Tiago sighting.

[NASpurs]

Fuck these replays.

Jesus Christ man, just be thankful we're watching the game at all.

[Obstructed_View]

These non dead-ball replays remind me of fiba games. But it looks like it's just for the Spurs.

[bklynspursfan]

Splitter/TD now

[Spurs Brazil]

Tiago and TD together

[freetiago]

Tim/Tiago lineup

[racm]

Dunca/Splitter

[Manu-20]

Oh Shit tim and tiago in at the same time pop has lost it.

[Obstructed_View]

Tiago has his Mr Checkov wig on.

[SpursRock20]

It's funny, now even the camera crew doesn't really care about Spurs defense anymore.

[DesertSpur50]

there. blair with block on one end, a minute later with a nice underneath pass for a layup. quit whining about him

Agreed. If anything Jack needs to get into his rhythm.

[MI21]

Bummer that I can't watch the stream, I don't get more than 3 seconds without it stopping for 10 seconds.. Now I know why I just buy league pass each year.

[Obstructed_View]

Continuation, bitch.

[TDMVPDPOY]

Bummer that I can't watch the stream, I don't get more than 3 seconds without it stopping for 10 seconds.. Now I know why I just buy league pass each year.

install some add blockers and script blocker...

[TimDunkem]

Brewer is ripping the Spurs a new asshole.

[Obstructed_View]

Ouch.

[SpursRock20]

That was scary, thought Leonard hurt himself at first.

[TDMVPDPOY]

man we cant even hit a 3.....

[Sa_Spursfan20]

That looked like it hurt. Damn.

[MeesterMarcus]

Brewer with 17 pts in the first half, damn.

[TimDunkem]

Leonard cannot be harmed.

[99 Problems]

Any Spur going to go near Brewer?

[Maddog]

it works better for me if I don't have it on full screen

[Obstructed_View]

Thought I saw a block off the glass. Weird.

[SpursRock20]

Splitter has the flattest shot.

[spurraider21]

even tony can't finish at the rim

[racm]

Too many whistles

[MI21]

install some add blockers and script blocker...

Yeah, I run adblock plus etc.. no ads pop up, it's just a really shitty stream for me.

[NASpurs]

Bummer that I can't watch the stream, I don't get more than 3 seconds without it stopping for 10 seconds.. Now I know why I just buy league pass each year.

There are two links for the game at firstrow. Not sure if you know or not.

Gotta say, the quality of the Silver Dancers has gone up since Mark Cuban started hiring strippers as Mavs Dancers.

Gotta say, the quality of the Silver Dancers has gone up since Mark Cuban started hiring strippers as Mavs Dancers.

Either that, or it's just because the resolution isn't that high.

[bklynspursfan]

Great pass from Tiago. Gotta finish those TD

[TimDunkem]

Why don't we see the high/low anymore? Tim and Splitter looked good on that play.

[TDMVPDPOY]

bail out call...fck splitter wirth the soft passes

[spursince#99]

Denver is good

[Manu-20]

Pop better open his dam eyes splitter can play with duncan sign curry so we have a back up center.

[Obstructed_View]

Because the guy who did it with Timmy sits at half court drinking sodas watching the games now.

[bklynspursfan]

Dammm Kawhi!!

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Leonard NICE MOVE!

[NASpurs]

Sick moves by Leonard

[SpursRock20]

awwwwwwwwwwwe HELL YEAH!

[racm]

KAWOW

[Spurs Brazil]

Great play Kawhi!

[siraulo23]

[TimDunkem]

Because the guy who did it with Timmy sits at half court drinking sodas watching the games now.

Splitter is a good passer.

[spurraider21]

leonard not playing within himself. trying to be something he isnt... just yet

[TDMVPDPOY]

kl tryin to do too much....

[Obstructed_View]

Splitter is a good passer.

I agree. They have to both be on the floor in order to run it though. Just sayin. :)

[TimDunkem]

I agree. They have to both be on the floor in order to run it though. Just sayin. :)

Very true...

[MI21]

There are two links for the game at firstrow. Not sure if you know or not.

Thank you, sir!

[freetiago]

not many good finishers on this team
only ginobili/parker

[spurraider21]

I agree. They have to both be on the floor in order to run it though. Just sayin. :)
im pretty sure diaw-duncan or diaw-splitter can run a good high-low

[Manu-20]

I say start splitter and duncan and sign curry as the back up center with diaw if you want to see the defense really improve pop.

[Buddy Holly]

PA guy is pretty good this game.

[bklynspursfan]

I say start splitter and duncan and sign curry as the back up center with diaw if you want to see the defense really improve pop.

I'd be cool with this lineup.

[NASpurs]

:lmao @ the music

[Obstructed_View]

That was a fuckin ugly free throw, Timmy.

[bklynspursfan]

TD Slam

[Sa_Spursfan20]

Another dunk by Duncan. Nice

[ace3g]

Andrew A. McNeill ‏@drew_48moh

Pop just walked over to the Nuggets bench and told George Karl "I want you to coach Jack."

[Rito3d30]

[Obstructed_View]

The replays don't bug me, but the extreme close up shots are a bit odd. Feels like NFL films.

[TimDunkem]

everyone bricking 3s but tony
what is this

The preseason.

[Manu-20]

This lineup is gold on defense we need to see it more often.
