Game 4: Spurs vs Nuggets: Tue. Nov 5, 2013 8:00 PM

[ace3g]

Spurs 94-88

[Kyuui-Musikq]

I hope someone's slapped Green upside the head and told him were already in our 4th game and he decides to show up for this one.

The way the Nuggets defend the three so far into the season there never was a better chance ...

[Kyuui-Musikq]

I surely hope so. I don't want this to linger to far into the season and become a mental thing. I know he worked hard in the offseason, on what I'm not quite sure, but here's to it coming together for him this game.

[Budkin]

Denver had a huge dropoff this season. They are just not that good.

I know he worked hard in the offseason, on what I'm not quite sure, but here's to it coming together for him this game.Because of the mental aspect (and because of the defense) Danny also should stay in the starting five ... otherwise he might lose confidence totally.

This is the official game thread?

Sorry, just seems haphazardly put together - no girl pic, no nothing....

Maybe its the new thing this new season.

Maybe the S.A. Express news will have the pertinent info...

Best game thread so far, thanks!

[bklynspursfan]

Just about everyone has struggled thus far, i thought being we had some chemistry established we'd come out a little stronger than our last 3 showings. We usually do good coming off an L, so hoping they play how we know they're capable of on both ends.

[bklynspursfan]

Nuggets changing their lineup, now starting Faried & Jordan Hamilton. Hickson & Randolph were starting previously

[TrainOfThought5]

This has been a wonky year so far in the NBA.

[Kyuui-Musikq]

Because of the mental aspect (and because of the defense) Danny also should stay in the starting five ... otherwise he might lose confidence totally.

I agree completely. It would only worsen the circumstances, plus negate one of the prime purposes for bringing in Bellineli off the bench: Helping Ginobli with the playmaking.

How many game threads do you plan on bitching about this season tbh? Is google.com blocked at Cell Block D tbh?

[ajballer4]

Why in the hell were they not starting Faried to begin with?

[Darius Bieber]

Hopefully altitude won't be a problem. They've had a good two days rest. Let's do this.

[SpurSpurSpurs]

Spurs 94-88

You had me there. Thought the game was already over and that Yahoo and ESPN just doesn't update their scores. Not from USA, so schedule is a bit confusing.

[will_spurs]

The 3rd image in your sig cracks me up every time. Is this person (a woman?) a regular at games?

[Brunodf]

Spurs by 2

[bklynspursfan]

Why in the hell were they not starting Faried to begin with?

Supposedly due to an injured hamstring which limited him.

But this quote sounds like he probably was not thrilled with it (after a recent loss)

396487712829485057

Would not be surprised if he gets moved

Longshot but both Leonard-Faried at the 3 would sound awesome.

[spurs10]

Best game thread so far, thanks!
Damn fine game thread! Ouch!! :toast

[Darius Bieber]

The 3rd image in your sig cracks me up every time. Is this person (a woman?) a regular at games?

Yeah it's a woman. (Might be one of the Baseline Bums perhaps?) and I think she only did this in the playoffs.

LMFAO! I'd never noticed that pic of that crazy old broad

[Mugen]

Meh, Faried is more of an undersized 4 than a 3/4 tweener. I think Boris is a better 3 than him. Agreed on the longshot part but he'd be great starting alongside Timmy tbh.

[ElNono]

Altitude always becomes a problem at the Pepsi Center... hopefully we have a good shooting night...

[Mugen]

Road games at Denver are always fun tbh. Their announcers get real salty and the home crowd really hates the Big 3 :lol

[SpursRock20]

They really like hating on Ginobili, that's for sure. He gets booed every time he touches the ball.

[Darius Bieber]

LMFAO! I'd never noticed that pic of that crazy old broad

St. Pauli goes hard. Really love their torhymne.

[HarlemHeat37]

Denver has one of the worst defensive teams in the league, especially in the frontcourt, Spurs need to dominate the paint..

[bklynspursfan]

Definitely a long shot, but man would our rebounding improve...

[will_spurs]

Good thing that Splitter, Ayres and Baynes are so assertive in the paint then...

Nah, I'm from Germany so I follow the Bundesliga all the way down to my hometown's team in the Bezirksliga (SV Gescher 08). I'm a fan of Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga though, as well as Preussen Muenster in the 3. Liga.

We have seen he is very capable on D.

If that's going well, I'm ok. We got 3 guys that will emerge.

Marco + Manu + Tony = win, tbh.

[crc21209]

plus NBA league pass is still free, today is the last day

Heres the thing...I'm in San Angelo and it's considered regional so it's blacked out and I'm fucked on League Pass and I'm fucked on looking for it on tv because they broadcast EVERY Mavs game here on FSN, and on the other FSN channel they're showing a fucking Dallas Stars Hockey game. They only show the Spurs here once in awhile. Hell, they show reruns of college football games or college basketball.more than they show the Spurs...

[TXstbobcat]

Fucking splitter!!!

[Libri]

Tiago :lol

[$pursDynasty]

Tiago is so weak

[RD2191]

damn, we look bad. :lol

[ace3g]

this is like the Lakers game, missing a lot of good looks

[Captivus]

Tiago has nothing

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

A lot of good opportunities and misses

[Holden_Caulfield]

green and tiago :lol

[Raven]

green looks active, but wtf tiago

[KL2]

Splitter may be the softest guy in the history of the game.

[TXstbobcat]

36million to get blocked

[HarlemHeat37]

Every shot the Spurs are missing are wide open shots or easy layups/floaters, tbh..

Denver's D is atrocious, Spurs are getting great looks, stop missing chip shots..

[jt__]

GG Pattah

[ace3g]

Patty!!!

[ace3g]

Mozgov'd himself

[Captivus]

Patty!

[Holden_Caulfield]

mills got crossed nasty :lol

[Brunodf]

Whatever Pop did with the Spurs PnR D, better go back to the old tatics, they are overplaying the guards for some reason

[pgardn]

Boy that was a brief 1st quarter.
Lasted about 33 minutes.

Jesus...

[ace3g]

Diaw 2.0

[TXstbobcat]

Diaw for 333

[turkish spurs fan]

denver's transition defense is bad and our transition ofense is bad. weird.

[DapDaGenius]

DIAW!

[Holden_Caulfield]

diaw with the curry 3333 :lol

[TXstbobcat]

Wow! Splitter did something

[RD2191]

wtf, we can't finish at the rim!

[DapDaGenius]

Did Mosbitch really just do that?

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Someone check the rim wtf

[spurspokesman]

shitty and sporadic play smh.

[spurspokesman]

Does splitter know how to dunk?

[024]

Spurs getting packed and blowing layups.

[Boomersgold]

Splitter, fuckin' dunk the ball, man! What's with your weak layups in traffic?

[Brunodf]

:lol Green

[ace3g]

Green about to be subbed out again

[TXstbobcat]

Spurs playing sloppy

[pgardn]

Does splitter know how to dunk?

I think he has our only dunk.

[RD2191]

losing to denver :lol

[loveforthegame]

Green wtf.

[RD2191]

its early in the season but we look bad, especially on d

[DapDaGenius]

C'mon guys

[NASpurs]

WTF is up with Pop's rotations? Has Splitter even rested yet?

[Ditty]

It seems like we aren't trying. Oh well I'm ready for the playoffs :lol

[N0 LyF3 ScRuB]

We have been playing like shit most of the year, tbh

[Captivus]

not using Kiwi

[spurspokesman]

I think he has our only dunk.
Im talking about in traffic lol. Dude is charmin soft

[PlayNando]

LMAO at this scrub Green. :lol

[024]

This looks more like the Spurs from the he-who-must-not-be-named era.

[$pursDynasty]

Splitter should never try to dunk again, perfect a finesse sky hook and be done with it. Splitter will never go to the basket hard, he will forever be soft but he can perfect that I guess.

[Obstructed_View]

Im talking about in traffic lol. Dude is charmin soft

Except for having the only dunk of the game, in traffic.

[Kool Bob Love]

Fans in the stand looking like. :smokin

[Kyuui-Musikq]

Nah, I'm from Germany so I follow the Bundesliga all the way down to my hometown's team in the Bezirksliga (SV Gescher 08). I'm a fan of Hoffenheim in the Bundesliga though, as well as Preussen Muenster in the 3. Liga.

thats is pretty awesome. The Bundesliga has been the most underrated league in Europe for quite some time and has only recently been getting its due. I happen to keep with Hoffenheim and Munster as a matter of fact largely though because of their American players. Are the Munster fans disappointed with Matty Taylor's production this season? Also, I don't if you happen to know, but how do the fans rate Joe Gyau, Fabian Hurzeler and Jeremy Toljan highly? I think I read Jeremy has been close to breaking into the first team there.

[pgardn]

Im talking about in traffic lol. Dude is charmin soft

You are rooting for the wrong team.

Leonard is about it for the guys who have been on the floor tonight.

[Brunodf]

:lolBonner defense

[$pursDynasty]

Better Baynes than Bonner, the red rocket is a waste

[PingPong]

Bonner....

[Obstructed_View]

Bonner making his mark, losing Faried and then committing a foul.

[spurspokesman]

Except for having the only dunk of the game, in traffic.

What's up OV, your boy splitter is soft in other words but I see what u did there.

[Raven]

its early in the season but we look bad, especially on d

no shit, ask yourself why

[RD2191]

:td

[Two10Whitey]

Wtf was that Marco?

[spurspokesman]

Good D kawhi

[Obstructed_View]

What's up OV, your boy splitter is soft in other words but I see what u did there.

He's definitely no Jeff Ayres or Pops Mensah Bonsu around the basket. Still the best Spurs center since Robinson, so I have a hard time complaining too much.

[Texas_Ranger]

spurs look like shit...

[DapDaGenius]

OMG these calls are so annoying.

[Obstructed_View]

Wondering what Duncan did on that. Sean said it was a foul, but I didn't see it.

[$pursDynasty]

McGee is so much better than Splitter, I"d do a straight up trade in a second, Shaqtin a Fool appearances be darned

[RD2191]

:lol

[Captivus]

Duncan is about to go crazy and get a tech

[Brunodf]

Something is wrong with that rim

[Obstructed_View]

So Bonner's being asked to cover Javale?

[HarlemHeat37]

How many layups are the Spurs going to miss?..

Defense is atrocious with Beli and Bonner at the same time, what a bad decision, tbh..

[DapDaGenius]

*SIGH*

[TXstbobcat]

Duncan and 1!!!!!

[RD2191]

Dementia tbh

[Juggity]

Duncan! nice move.

[Obstructed_View]

Wow. Duncan.

[spurspokesman]

He's definitely no Jeff Ayres or Pops Mensah Bonsu around the basket. Still the best Spurs center since Robinson, so I have a hard time complaining too much. We can agree on that 1. He is worlds better than some of the crap we've had over the years, just wish he was an ounce tougher.

[HarlemHeat37]

Spurs minus any production from Splitter/Green and not utilizing Leonard looks like the shitty Spurs of 2009-2011, tbh..

[apalisoc_9]

Bonner and Marco playing at the same time is just a terrible decision.

[spurspokesman]

Leonard

[Texas_Ranger]

It's nice to see that Leonard's used so much.

[spurspokesman]

Duncan balling

[Two10Whitey]

Lol refs.

[Captivus]

refs suck...both ways

[spurspokesman]

typical night for matt bun buns

[Obstructed_View]

We can agree on that 1. He is worlds better than some of the crap we've had over the years, just wish he was an ounce tougher.

He used to be really physical taking a lot of charges and stuff, but he kept getting aggravating injuries that kept him out. I'd prefer he be a bit softer and play 82 games, if those are the only choices. That flippy hook makes me cringe every time, but he's got better hands than Elson, better feet than Nazr, he's more aggressive than Rasho, and he's taller and about as clever around the basket as Fabricio. Not bad for the money he gets.

[HarlemHeat37]

Diaw missed some chip shots but Pop needs to keep him on the floor, he was getting easy looks, you can't discourage him from being aggressive..

Omg, Andre Miller for 3 and a Faried jump shot..wow..

[spurspokesman]

Damn everything falling for denver

[Obstructed_View]

Bonner loses his man again. I'm unsure how anyone could have been playing so badly to justify having Matty in the game.

[$pursDynasty]

If Bonner ain't hittin 3's and he ain't then he is worse than useless, he is a liability.

[HarlemHeat37]

Nuggets abusing Bonner, tbh..

Pop not punishing Denver for having Faried on the floor, Diaw should be on the floor posting him up..

[Boomersgold]

Parker's really struggling to defend Lawson...

[Raven]

smh

[Brunodf]

Bonner collapsing the defense per par

[DapDaGenius]

Why the hell have we been shooting like shit?

[HarlemHeat37]

Wow, Bonner is getting abused on every play, tbh..

Why the fuck is he on the floor?..

[spurspokesman]

Matty Bunbuns spreading his cheeks for simultaneous pounding

[Obstructed_View]

Oh shit. Darrell Arthur in the game seeing Bonner on the floor. His mouth is watering.

[$pursDynasty]

Nuggets looking for anyone that is guarded by Bonner, as would I

[crc21209]

Get Bonner the fuck out already...

[Texas_Ranger]

break a leg Bonner

[Obstructed_View]

That was not a smart pass.

[HarlemHeat37]

Bonner is playing a horrific game, tbh..

I don't understand the logic of playing Bonner when they have Faried on the floor, a horrible post defender that actually guards the perimeter well..

[Brunodf]

Bonner loses his man again. I'm unsure how anyone could have been playing so badly to justify having Matty in the game.
:cry but but he spreads the floor

[pgardn]

Slop

[Obstructed_View]

Nuggets looking for anyone that is guarded by Bonner, as would I

It's kind of hard to find anyone guarded by Bonner, as he's spent a good deal of time running around out in space looking around for someone to guard.

[Libri]

Bonner must have some incriminating photos of Pop doing something.

[crc21209]

The Nuggets are an annoying ass team...

[Two10Whitey]

PlayBaynes.

[HarlemHeat37]

Frustrating that the Spurs are missing a ton of easy looks, Nuggets are making fluky shots, and Bonner is playing so many minutes and getting abused on every play..

Denver sucks and they don't have much talent, tbh, there's no reason for the Spurs to lose..

[spurspokesman]

We truly have the most unathletic frontcourt in the nba

[DatBoyGood]

Bout damn time

[Johnsyounger]

That is why we have Bonner

[Raven]

spurs playing better tbh, just need to make the easy looks

[spurspokesman]

Well what do u know matt gets us 3 back. Now how much will he return to denver

[Obstructed_View]

Well what do u know matt gets us 3 back. Now how much will he return to denver

He has to hit them in bunches to justify his time.

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Why does Leonard like mid-range jumpers so much wtf

[Obstructed_View]

The Spurs had five guys in the paint on defense.

[Obstructed_View]

Has Kawhi ever hit that little 18 footer off the dribble? I haven't seen it go in recent memory.

[$pursDynasty]

when Timmy was linin up his shot why was Tony standing out of bounds?

[HarlemHeat37]

Spurs need to figure out a way to get Leonard inside, tbh..

Taking mid-range shots all game is a waste of his talent, and those shots are inefficient..

[DapDaGenius]

They make a shot before the buzzer, watch.

[TXstbobcat]

What a crappy half.

[spurspokesman]

Turrible (Barkley voice)

[Captivus]

We have no spark, no ideas, nothing.

[Brunodf]

Spurs played like shit. Pop made some bad bad decisions

[RD2191]

is this the end? tbh? jk?

[timtonymanu]

Still a winnable game. The Spurs just have to play their game.

[ElNono]

we're shooting like shit... once the shooting evens out, we should be right in this game

[Obstructed_View]

Spurs need to figure out a way to get Leonard inside, tbh..

Taking mid-range shots all game is a waste of his talent, and those shots are inefficient..

He seems to be taking him this year because he doesn't feel confident in his three. That's not really a good reason to do it. Might as well just move the ball on or try to go to the rack. He's been great in transition, but his aggression in the half court has been nonexistant.
