RRT Game 1 Thread: Spurs @ Timberwolves - Feb. 6 @ 8:00 PM CST

[Cry Havoc]

I really hope Pop is using this game to shop Blair and Bonner.

[RD2191]

just tuned in, why are the turd towers playing? where is splitter? baynes?

[Boomersgold]

[in best boomersgold voice]Patty Mills would be a good match-up for Barea

That's exactly what I was thinking.

[crc21209]

Lets review Blairs night so far...missed layup, foul, missed layup, shot blocked. Seriously, there is no way he (or Bonner for that matter) should be getting minutes over Baynes...

[Boomersgold]

Is Splitter injured?

[timtonymanu]

Baynes!

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

AUSSIES

[JingleJangleJingle]

aron baynes ;_;

[bklynspursfan]

Baynes over splitter??

[timtonymanu]

I think Pop is saving Splitter because of his fouls.

[Cry Havoc]

Parker with a ridiculous finish.

[capek]

YAY!

[benfti]

intrument of our liberation

[timtonymanu]

Fucking players, stop hitting Parker in the eye.

[Cry Havoc]

TP stepping up.

[BatManu20]

BANE

[ElNono]

great move by Tony...

sved looks like he's an emo that's gonna off himself soon

[ace3g]

Baynes was there for the put back

[PingPong]

D-league level game.

[Mugen]

Tony's taken more shots to the face this season than Sasha Grey.

[Boomersgold]

Where's Splitter and why is he not in the game?

[Cry Havoc]

D-league level game.

Never watched D-League, eh?

[BatManu20]

Foul? BS!

[capek]

Baynes is a big strong boy! Holding his own nicely against Pek the Giant.

[timtonymanu]

Leonard :tu

[BatManu20]

Tony's taken more shots to the face this season than Sasha Grey.

Nice.

[Reck]

These refs, I'm telling you.

Good for Tony for going right at the basket again leaving the ref to make the contact call.

[DatBoyGood]

OK KL!

[Cry Havoc]

Officials swallowing their whistles. At least they're consistent.

[Bill_Brasky]

God damn Leonard

[Mugen]

Is tiago on the bench? Hurt?

[ace3g]

good job Baynes

[Cry Havoc]

Baynes with some good D on Rubio.

[timtonymanu]

Is tiago on the bench? Hurt?

I see him on the bench, but I'm thinking Pop is saving him because he has two fouls and he doesn't want Tiago to get his 3rd.

[Bill_Brasky]

Really liking Baynes.

[JingleJangleJingle]

god the Spurs are just to good at basketball

[BatManu20]

There we gooo

[DapDaGenius]

Uh oh Big Balls Baynes is in. Lets see how he gives it to the Twolves...and KAWHI THAT'S MY BOY.

[ace3g]

damn Kawhi almost with the block on Pek

[timtonymanu]

Leonard doing it on both ends right now.

[capek]

BS call. Leonard owned Pek the Giant on that one! :lol

[Bill_Brasky]

Leonard denying Pek :wow

[Cry Havoc]

fuck we lost.
:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:roll eyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes: rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolle yes:rolleyes

[loveforthegame]

Leonard is so special.

Baynes looking good too.

[Mugen]

Is Baynes the biggest guy we've had since Rasho?

[ace3g]

nice screen by Baynes there

[BatManu20]

Hit that Diaw!

[bklynspursfan]

I really hope we see more Baynes and less Blair/Bonner in the 2nd half

[benfti]

Baynes is a BEAST

[Mugen]

Baynes layin' some wood out there.

[ElNono]

Baynes already better than the turd towers, IMO

[timtonymanu]

:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:roll eyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes: rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolleyes:rolle yes:rolleyes

:lol There's always one jackass every game.

[BatManu20]

Is Baynes the biggest guy we've had since Rasho?

Easily.

[Reck]

Dumbass Diaw fucked up at the end there.

[spurraider21]

Baynes with the +/- goods

[capek]

Is Baynes the biggest guy we've had since Rasho?

He's like Rasho with balls. Kid looks really good considering how new he is.

[ace3g]

Baynes +8 in 3:25

[DapDaGenius]

Matty B.

Of course. Someone should kick himin his nut for that. lol

[EJFischer]

Those are some of the most brutal picks I've ever seen. When Baynes actually knows the playbook he is going to be a huge asset.

[SpursIndonesia]

:lol There's always one jackass every game.

No RobDiaz to make a sucking fest pair, eh ? :D

[timvp]

Hopefully Splitter isn't injured. He didn't look injured so let's hope Pop was just saving his fouls.........

Parker doing work. But he has to keep this up to give the Spurs a shot. Playmaking-wise, there aren't many options out there tonight for the Spurs.

[Russo21]

Baynes is a big strong boy! Holding his own nicely against Pek the Giant.

Yep that was nice to see.

[Samr.]

I thought Baynes had a lack of mobility, and that it was going to be a major hindrance on both ends. Instead the dude seems pretty quick for a massive dude. Great body to have.

He seems very aggressive with the screens, and when he sets them, dude takes up some serious space. Obvious he's been coached these past few days on avoiding moving screens; he now sets a screen and holds his stop like a 15 year old at a stop sign with his driver's ed teacher in the car.

[Cry Havoc]

Halftime. Also known as "Far Cry 3 time" for me.

[Manu-20]

Glad to see Baynes got some mins he sets some man picks tony getting to the basket easy because of them decent D overall good game for him and Kawhi stepping up is always good to see.

[Spur|n|Austin]

Baynes' physical prescience is legit

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I wanna see lots of top pnr with TP-Splitter and Splitter rolling to the hole in the 3rd Q.

[benfti]

Hopefully Splitter isn't injured. He didn't look injured so let's hope Pop was just saving his fouls.........



He only had 2 I thought?

[timtonymanu]

Should I bother tuning into the Halftime Show again? Or are we going to get a 15 minute discussion about Pau's injury? :lol

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

No, but we should send BANE!!! back! He's shit because of his first 10secs of garbage time play!!!!! :rolleyes

I can't believe someone started that thread. Who the fuck was that moron? :pctoss

[crc21209]

Should I bother tuning into the Halftime Show again? Or are we going to get a 15 minute discussion about Pau's injury? :lol

Pretty much...:lol

[Russo21]

Baynes +8 lol

I like the kid. He doesn't look intimidated by anyone.

Splitter and Diaw 0 points though? Tiago 0 shots? Man i hope he's ok.

[SpurSpurSpurs]

I wanna see lots of top pnr with TP-Splitter and Splitter rolling to the hole in the 3rd Q.

NO! Play Baynes more. Send Splitter back when we don't control the game anymore.

[timtonymanu]

I think Pop is just saving Splitter for the 2nd half. With the way Bonner, Diaw and Blair are playing, we need Splitter to be fresh.

[Brunodf]

Good 1st half, Tony/Kawhi are playing really well, hope Baynes gets more minutes than Bonner/Blair in the 2nd half

[RD2191]

ey fuck you Indonesia, you can suck a big fat chorizo

[LittleCriminal]

As soon as the Turd Towers sat where they belong (bench), Spurs opened up a lead... go figure.

[DapDaGenius]

I hope Baynes has a monster dunk this game.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

NO! Play Baynes more. Send Splitter back when we don't control the game anymore.

We'll see BANE!!! again late-3rd, early 4th. ;)

[BackHome]

Those are some of the most brutal picks I've ever seen. When Baynes actually knows the playbook he is going to be a huge asset.

Yeah you know your setting some tough picks when the player takes his eyes off who is guarding and looking for Baynes....kinda the look a receivers had when running a cross patterns in front of Ronnie Lott..

[ace3g]

regarding Splitter, hopefully there is no truth to that Jefferson trade, granted Jefferson is playing right now in the 3rd.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

BANE!!! has to really try to even get close to keeping up with Pek. Shows you how quick Pek is.

[timtonymanu]

No, but we should send BANE!!! back! He's shit because of his first 10secs of garbage time play!!!!! :rolleyes

I can't believe someone started that thread. Who the fuck was that moron? :pctoss

I think it was hater.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

I think it was hater.

Appropriate. :lol

Give him a year or two and, whatever else he turns out to be, BANE will be one of the best screen-setters in the NBA. :tu

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

WAS beat NYK!? WTF???

[playblair]

cojo>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>nando

[LittleCriminal]

Spurs.com just updated Baynes roster photo..... http://t1.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRFNRKuXV0VGnD1hX_a2Cvxv5g6YQBnx NamEdbphWtK2Fke7E1a

[ace3g]

according to Elliott just to see how Baynes matched up against Pek, why Splitter didn't play

[LittleCriminal]

Spurs.com also updated #45's roster photo too... http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRilZWIUlATLzEVXlv9eEkObYee4zHh7 pqXn2VZjbAl6C_jZg

[GINNNNNNNNNNNNOBILI]

Hopefully we see some patty mills in the 2nd half... We need a spark outside of tony.

Plus I'd like to see him get some run with Bayne on the 2nd squad... Seemed to have a bit of chemistry in their limited time they've played together

[benfti]

according to Elliott just to see how Baynes matched up against Pek, why Splitter didn't play


So it was just a happy co-incidence that we went on an 10-0 run when he came in

[SpursIndonesia]

ey fuck you Indonesia, you can suck a big fat chorizo

:lol :toast

[JingleJangleJingle]

god the Spurs are just to good at basketball

People were worried Splitter might be injured, so just giving an update

[PingPong]

Pop is saving Splitter for one of those blowouts in the third.

[BatManu20]

Shoot the ball! Jesus

[bklynspursfan]

Someone shoot....

[Russo21]

bullshit foul on leonard

[bklynspursfan]

Kawhi went straight up!

[loveforthegame]

We can't afford to have Leonard in foul trouble.

[TDMVPDPOY]

fkn put bayne in to contain the greek half man half goat creature

[Captivus]

That foul...mmmmmm....

[ElNono]

lol Pop mad @ Danny.. about time

[loveforthegame]

Fluck. Neal coming in.

[Boomersgold]

fkn put bayne in to contain the greek half man half goat creature

[TDMVPDPOY]

neal in for green....green in for neal...no better alternative :(:(

[loveforthegame]

Splitter!!

[capek]

:lol I love this team! Ahh Pop

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Splitter has been a dunking machine lately.

[PingPong]

Pop trolled Neal.

[Brunodf]

Green making plays:wow

[ElNono]

hero defense there from Tony

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

fkn put bayne in to contain the greek half man half goat creature

Funniest call you've made in about 2 years. :lmao

[Brunodf]

:lolREfs

[TDMVPDPOY]

[loveforthegame]

Baynes for Splitter please.

[capek]

OT question. WHY THE FUCK doesn't the ignore function work in game threads?? Really annoying having to look at the idiot posters on my ignore list. :td

[ace3g]

some band called The Heroine

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Indy bands love the Red Rocket. :lol

[bklynspursfan]

[loveforthegame]

Baynes!!

[capek]

Baynes!

[Floyd Pacquiao]

nice baynes first big off the bench

[Russo21]

pissweak defense from green there. lucky rubio missed the open 3

[loveforthegame]

Diaw finally.

[BatManu20]

Make that pass Tony!

[bklynspursfan]

Baynes ... So happy he's the first big off the bench...

[ace3g]

now Baynes has to work on physicality differences

[Russo21]

@ Pekovic. I didnt know Yetti's were allowed in the NBA

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Boris is not 6'10". They sure love to bullshit.

[loveforthegame]

Leonard so close.

[capek]

Nice D from Green tonight.

[LakerHater]

Man was hopin Kawhi was gonna dunk that!

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

@ Pekovic. I didnt know Yetti's were allowed in the NBA

Can't beat the goat comment, don't even try... :lol

[DatBoyGood]

I thought Kawhi was about to bang out

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Let's get BANE!!! one post-up. I wanna see what he does.

[LakerHater]

WOW, good control by Tony!!

[capek]

:lol Tony fucking Parker

[Darkwaters]

Kawhi is dominating the boards tonight

[loveforthegame]

Good help D by Baynes but no one was there for the rebound.

[DapDaGenius]

Wow, Pek makes Baynes look like a bitch.

[LakerHater]

:lol Coach Pop with the good hands catchin the ball!!

[BatManu20]

Wow, Pek makes Baynes look like a bitch.

How so? Or are you just trolling.

[ace3g]

Wow, Pek makes Baynes look like a bitch.

Saw Baynes over power Pek out of the paint (weak rookie call), boxed Pek out so Kawhi could get rebound, and that put back wasn't his fault

[bklynspursfan]

Wow, Pek makes Baynes look like a bitch.

Huh? He scored cause Baynes helped on Ridnour and no one picked him up

[Mugen]

Kawhi's development since he entered the league is ridiculous. He's 21 for fuk's sake.

[Samr.]

Baynes must be so damn annoying for the other team when he's setting those screens

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Pek isn't having a great game tonight, but remember last year when he had his coming out party against us, pretty much singlehandedly won the game for them by totally beating Timmy sensless? Scored 26 or something like that, mostly on sweet drop-steps, hooks and putbacks.

[PingPong]

Lol Knicks, beaten by the Wizards.

[ace3g]

Green...

[Russo21]

Green airball LMAO what a scrub

[PingPong]

Pek isn't having a great game tonight, but remember last year when he had his coming out party against us, pretty much singlehandedly won the game for them by totally beating Timmy sensless? Scored 26 or something like that, mostly on sweet drop-steps, hooks and putbacks.

No Love, no Kirilenko he can't lead the team...

[capek]

yikes

[BatManu20]

WTF GREEN

[loveforthegame]

Wtf Green!!??

[timtonymanu]

WTF Green?

[NickiRasgo]

LMAO Green

[DatBoyGood]

Danny tf you doin?

[TDMVPDPOY]

pop wants that ass

[angelbelow]

Baynes looks very lost. To be expected though.

[Boomersgold]

Danny Green, wtf was that?

[Brunodf]

Green:lol

[BatManu20]

That wasn't just an air ball... that was short by a solid foot!

[crc21209]

Jon Barry and this token black guy suuuuckkk...:lol

[Captivus]

was that a block or and air ball?

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

We need to trade for a SG. Seriously. Green is atrocious at everything except corner 3s, and occasionally man defence.

[Ditty]

I miss James Anderson

[Darkwaters]

We could probably get the Cornerstone back

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

No Love, no Kirilenko he can't lead the team...

Love didn't play the game I just referred to either. He's a perfect 2nd guy.

[Russo21]

GTFO Green

[TE]

Danny Green sucks

[crc21209]

I think that shot by Danny was partially blocked, but still a horrible decision by him to shoot there...

[BatManu20]

Lol at all the Green bashing taking place on this board right now.

[ace3g]

Kawhi post up!!

[BatManu20]

I think that shot by Danny was partially blocked, but still a horrible decision by him to shoot there...

Nope. I rewound it just to make sure. It was just a really bad air ball.

[Russo21]

Beastly move from Kawhi right there, nice

[Juggity]

Green is cheap, and when he's hot, he's hot. Worth what he's being paid.

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

damn we are picking on gelabale in the post

[TE]

Kwahi posting up.

[loveforthegame]

Need more of that from Leonard.

[NickiRasgo]

Wow Kawhi!

[ElNono]

fuck, ginger back out there

[ace3g]

Bane block!!!

[Floyd Pacquiao]

kawhi leonard is good tbh 17 & 8 already

[Russo21]

BAYNES!!! Massive block

[Brunodf]

Kawhi getting touches, i like it.

[Mugen]

Kawhi makin' it look easy.

[DatBoyGood]

Bayness

[timtonymanu]

Leonard is being aggressive tonight and doesn't look so timid.

[BatManu20]

BANE!!

[Cry Havoc]

Holy shit Baynes is a gamer.

[loveforthegame]

Baynes block!!!

[TE]

Tha fuck?

[bklynspursfan]

Dammmm

[DapDaGenius]

How so? Or are you just trolling.


Huh? He scored cause Baynes helped on Ridnour and no one picked him up


Saw Baynes over power Pek out of the paint (weak rookie call), boxed Pek out so Kawhi could get rebound, and that put back wasn't his fault

Not at all, brothers. I was talking about when they stood side by side after that play. I wasn't trolling, just making a joke. I know that put back wasn't Baynes fault.

[NickiRasgo]

Hero ball! LMAO

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

BANE!!! doing a great job defending Pek, really fighting him. :tu

[BatManu20]

Wtf is happening!!

[loveforthegame]

The hell Neal!!

[TE]

Neal fucking sucks

[timtonymanu]

We really do need a competent SG.

[DatBoyGood]

What has happened to Neal?

[Spur|n|Austin]

Big ole block baynes

[TDMVPDPOY]

gary neal fkn sucks cock for a living or someshit, wtf with the suckin

[Brunodf]

Spurs look horrible

[angelbelow]

lmao Luke Ridenour

[Spursfanfromafar]

We really do need a competent SG.

his name is Manu and he is resting after a tight hamstring. Seriously, we are loaded at the guard position.

[BatManu20]

This line up sucks so bad haha

[Boomersgold]

Lack of confidence from Neal? First he misses the rim completely, and next he shoots an airball?

[bklynspursfan]

Wow...

[ElNono]

Neal and Bonner are terrible...

[PingPong]

Rubio is a POS.

[Russo21]

cough cough al jefferson cough cough

[TE]

Man, Neal's crappy play is singlehandedly bringing down the overall play of the team.

[Captivus]

Save us Bonner!!!

[timtonymanu]

his name is Manu and he is resting after a tight hamstring. Seriously, we are loaded at the guard position.

I know that. It's been mentioned in this thread but outside of Manu, the drop off is very far. I don't think the Spurs are gonna get far if they have to rely on Green and Neal's hot shooting in the playoffs.

[angelbelow]

Parker is visibly frustrated.

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Bonner aint getting nutmegged.

[Juggity]

cough cough al jefferson cough cough

Fuck that.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Name a cheap SG you'd like to trade for to take over from Green-Neal.

[Boomersgold]

I think Neal's misses had something to do with Pop's trolling of him in the third.

[BatManu20]

Tony has to take over

[loveforthegame]

Parker and Leonard carrying the team tonight.

[NickiRasgo]

Tony!

[Spursfanfromafar]

I know that. It's been mentioned in this thread but outside of Manu, the drop off is very far. I don't think the Spurs are gonna get far if they have to rely on Green and Neal's hot shooting in the playoffs.

Well.. just in this game, Green is shooting 50%...and besides there aren't many competent backups available for a trade from elsewhere.

[BatManu20]

Greennnnn

[Boomersgold]

TP with his trademark floater.

[DatBoyGood]

Really weird game

[Juggity]

Danny Green, delivering tbh

[Cry Havoc]

Danny Green is looking good this game aside from that airball.

[TE]

Green fluke :lol

[loveforthegame]

Green has hit some big 3s tonight. I'll give him that.

[NickiRasgo]

Green!

[crc21209]

Green just said fuck ya'll haters! :lol

[capek]

Nice play Green! Some of you "fans" need to get a perspective and STFU with your whining.

[BatManu20]

Really weird game

This.

[ElNono]

Danny Green is looking good this game aside from that airball.

he sucked at everything but 3 pointers

[benfti]

I really do think its worth putting Patty at the 2 for a a couple of minutes

[angelbelow]

Timberwolves are playing random ball. Unless they catch heavy fire its just a matter of time before we out execute them.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Why don't we post Jax up more often?

[TE]

Just like his drives, Green can't finish

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

it's the cold weather mang, making everyone miss.

[RuffnReadyOzStyle]

Green has hit some big 3s tonight. I'll give him that.

Yup, otherwise atrocious, but he has done that.

[loveforthegame]

Leonard and Parker need some help.

[ElNono]

need to try to make a little run here to start the 4th

[playblair]

blair >>>>>>> baynes

[HI-FI]

Kawhi been beasting this game. i love that pull up mid range jumper, great to see him getting back to it.

[SpurSpurSpurs]

blair >>>>>>> baynes

Have you seen your doctor lately?

[bklynspursfan]

Not at all, brothers. I was talking about when they stood side by side after that play. I wasn't trolling, just making a joke. I know that put back wasn't Baynes fault.

Gotcha. He has really good size, makes Splitter look kinda thin lol
