[RD2191]

Where was this against okc....
OKC is an elite team, our bench only looks good against scrub teams, tbh

[RD2191]

keep em under 90pts, plz, kthx

[McGusto55]

This is the Magic.

No shit

[Libri]

Nando and Baynes: extend the lead to 30 so we can play!

[Budkin]

No shit

They suck. The Thunder don't.

[TXstbobcat]

Baynes gets some playing time in the 4th

[McGusto55]

OKC is an elite team, our bench only looks good against scrub teams, tbh

I agree

[ElNono]

I like the ball movement when Tony isn't around, tbh... I think ima gonna start a "trade Tony" thread... never done before

[Budkin]

We're lucky we're playing a shit team because our TOs have been out of control.

[McGusto55]

They suck. The Thunder don't.

So..well see against rockets huh?

[RD2191]

I like the ball movement when Tony isn't around, tbh... I think ima gonna start a "trade Tony" thread... never done before
:lol

[Diego20]

I wasn't watching the game. Did duncan do an alley oop?

[TXstbobcat]

Diaw!!

[Expert]

OKC is an elite team, our bench only looks good against scrub teams, tbh
if our bench could handle okc's starters, they would not be playing on the bench in San Antonio.

[RD2191]

come on man, under 90

[TXstbobcat]

Nice bounce back game for the spurs after that fucking OKC game.

[RD2191]

son of a bitch

[LakerHater]

BAynes!

[TXstbobcat]

Baynes!!!

[RD2191]

if our bench could handle okc's starters, they would not be playing on the bench in San Antonio.
???

[ElNono]

Our bench wasnt that bad against OKC... it's just that OKC like to play Durant with the bench, which makes it incredibly more difficult to guard them

[Diego20]

I like the ball movement when Tony isn't around, tbh... I think ima gonna start a "trade Tony" thread... never done before

That's not new, I mean, when tony is playing, the first thing he does is trying to score and then trying to move the ball.

[ElNono]

We just had a bad game against OKC... it happens...

[PingPong]

Baynes is kinda like an elephant in a china shop.

[RD2191]

:bang

[ElNono]

damn it, they're gonna let them score more than 90

[SanDiegoSpursFan]

Once again the 3rd string ruins the point differential. When is this trend gonna stop?

[McGusto55]

Honesty. .it was jackson. .thats why it pisses me off..Durant its expected..but Reggie. .cmon

[TXstbobcat]

Nando is in. Garbage time minutes

[PingPong]

Honesty. .it was jackson. .thats why it pisses me off..Durant its expected..but Reggie. .cmon

Always some scrub has a stellar night against the spurs. It's almost a tradition.

[RD2191]

:bang:bang

[Budkin]

:lol the Diaw shuffle

[ElNono]

Honesty. .it was jackson. .thats why it pisses me off..Durant its expected..but Reggie. .cmon

can't get pissed in november, tbh

[TXstbobcat]

Green333

[RD2191]

:lmaoGreen hittin meaningless threes

[RD2191]

fuccccccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

[Budkin]

There goes 90... doh

[Darius McCrary]

Why is Danny still in the game WTF are we trying to do to our starters

[Budkin]

fuccccccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk

How much did you lose?

[McGusto55]

can't get pissed in november, tbh

I get pissed in oct...tbh

[TXstbobcat]

14-2 :flag:

[Darius McCrary]

We just had a bad game against OKC... it happens...
The Spurs played evenly with OKC until the mid 3rd quarter. They allowed themselves to get totally shut down.
Even a quick box score glance shows the tale of the game. 15 points in the 3rd Q? Game over.

Plus, Danny zero threes kills this offense
Jackson and Lamb went off, but if we take care of our own business, that doesn't matter and we still win. We let it get away from us in that 3rd and could not recoever.

[RD2191]

How much did you lose?
:lolNot a bettin man. Just like when the Spurs keep teams under 90.

[mclinejr]

I don't get why so many people care about the point differential.

[ElNono]

I don't get why so many people care about the point differential.

Don't really care about differential here, but do about points against. Just a good indicator of the state of the defense.

[mclinejr]

Don't really care about differential here, but do about points against. Just a good indicator of the state of the defense.

Yeah, that makes sense. In that case, I hope we don't end up relying on the third string's defense anytime soon.

[Mugen]

Nando/Matt/1st rounder for Afflalo tbh.

[EVAY]

Don't really care about differential here, but do about points against. Just a good indicator of the state of the defense.

But this is one of the many ways that Pop's management of starter's minutes and games impacts not only their individual stats (so they don't stack up as well against some of their counterparts because they play less, etc. etc.) but the team stats as well. Had Pop left the first team or even the second team on the floor longer, the point differential would have been different and the points against would likely be lower than they were playing the third string for a good portion of the last quarter.

Again, it is a view to Pop's "larger view" or "longer view" that has to be taken into account when assessing these kinds of stats.

I agree that the third stringers skew the numbers... but still, if even with third stringers you're under 90 or low-90s, you're doing something well...

Plus if you care enough, you can break down the points allowed per the different lineups out there and get a better view...

[TXstbobcat]

Wow Marco +23 and 4/4 from 3 pt range scoring 19 pts tonight!!

Got the annoying Rockets tomorrow so good getting this win.

[keywester]

Screw Poop for staring Cojo over Mills!! F the mind games, I hope Poop lives and dies by his mind games!!! Like last year, Poop is sure to lose it all. Thank goodness I live near Miami and can be a Heats fan if Poop is going to shit on Mills. If you don't like what I am saying...FU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TXstbobcat]

I'm really looking forward to the game against the Rockets tomorow. Hope Tony is back for this one.

Dude he did that to keep the rotations right. It kept Patty playing with Manu and Marco. It was a good move

[PlayNando]

Should have started Nando. Nando = 3 assists/1 TO in 6 minutes..................

[TXstbobcat]

Should have started Nando. Nando = 3 assists/1 TO in 6 minutes..................

so far pop is only giving him garbage minutes in blowouts.

[keywester]

I understand that the Manu/Marco/Mills rotation works but Mills should get the start even if it is for a minute for the dedication and respect he gives to the Spurs.

[Sean Cagney]

I understand that the Manu/Marco/Mills rotation works but Mills should get the start even if it is for a minute for the dedication and respect he gives to the Spurs.

Ehhhh I will take the win, all that other crap is irrelevant because you like the player etc. It worked.

[moisaenz]

keywester cares more about mills starting than mills himself.

[timtonymanu]

I understand that the Manu/Marco/Mills rotation works but Mills should get the start even if it is for a minute for the dedication and respect he gives to the Spurs.

*rollingeyes

Seriously just go root for another fucking team. I like Patty Mills and welcome the Aussie fans (benfti, Boomersgold), but you guys need to understand the team revolves around more than just Patty Mills.

And this right here is why I won't take you seriously. GTFO bandwagon fan.

[BackHome]

A win is a win look on the bright side maybe Pop did that so we can package CoJo in a trade.

Fwiw in Australia "root" means to have sex, but otherwise I agree!

Interesting.

[boutons_deux]

Harden back in, Lin out (sprained knee)

[Gummi Clutch]

Harden back in, Lin out (sprained knee)
add a positive and remove a negative. Rockets have been looking scary lately ever since they stopped the twin towers experiment. Spurs 103-91.

[PlayNando]

so far pop is only giving him garbage minutes in blowouts.
The Spurs are undefeated when Nando plays. Coincidence?

[Stabula]

The Spurs are undefeated when Nando plays. Coincidence?

Yes.
